[Birgith]

Just because the song reminds of the album itself, it must be "THE" most depressing I know of

 

[Noctem]

Anything from Sentenced

 

[Board]

Hey bcg1969, I see you mentioned Danzig and I hadn't really thought of them, but as I said metal aren't really sad to me, but "Let it be captured" is also a little bit sad and maybe a little sadder than "Going down to die" IMO, although that's a good song!

 

[Birgith]

Hmm... Stairway to Heaven? Actually the memories from it are the depressing thing

 

[Starbreaker]

I can't believe no one has yet listed some of the all time classics in this department.

Candlemass - Solitude
Candlemass - Under the Oak
Candlemass - Samarithan

Judas Priest - Run of the Mill
Judas Priest - Epitaph

and the grandaddy of them all

Judas Priest - Here Come the Tears

[opy666]

Well I wasn't going to mention The Cure but if people can mention Skid row and Chili Peppers then I can say the cure is WAY depressing...especially albums such as Faith, Disintigration, and Pornogrophy.

 

[ADS]

• Solitude Aeturnus "Mirror of Sorrow"
• Solitude Aeturnus "White Ship"
  (a really bad song to listen to when you're down on life)
• Amorphis "Elegy"
• Anathema "Shroud of Frost"
• Fear Factory "Invisible Wounds (Dark Bodies)"
  (man this song gets me every time I hear it)
• A Different Sun "Trails of Broken Dreams"
  (the second most depressing song I ever wrote)

And who could forget... the all-time classic "I'm so horribly miserable" song... Metallica "Fade to Black".
