Dont kill me for saying this, Cuz i know its Emo core, but i guess it was just the circumstances when i first heard it that made me feel really sad (my friend had suicidal thoughts and she recommended this song)
It dies today - The Caitiff Choir: Defeatism. The ending of that song drags on...but in the right mood, it takes you to a world of misery and sadness.
I think maybe any song can be genuinely depressing, given the right personal circumstances. I find 'Chamber' by InMe massively depressing (excellent song, btw), but only really because it reminds me of someone I loved and lost. Would I find that song really depressing otherwise? Who knows?
Does that make sense?
any song that reminds you of a certain period of time/person can be depressing but this thread is generally concentrating on music that doesnt need this element and is just generally depressing anyways
Opeth Damnation
Swallow the Sun-The Morning Never Came
Katatonia- Any
there are many classical cds that are very dark and depressing. You can probably just type in sad classical music in a search and find a million things.haha
There's alot of bands that have a song or two, but those above you can pretty much really embrace the depression and have a time and release it all.
I find it depressing that James Blunt exists. And even more depressing than that is the fact that he got a record deal. Has anyone actually listened to that 'Youre Beautiful' garbage?
Worst.
Lyrics.
Ever.

But may I just ask... why?
