sad, depressing black metal with hooks

go. thanks.

Not really black metal, but do Woods of Ypres count?

The last Woods album was freaking killer. Terrible what happened to David and makes the album even more haunting when you listen to it.

I'd have to say early Bethlehem is the pinnacle for this type of stuff,but I guess they deal with more topics of mental illness,addiction and a real threat of suicide rather than a sad or depressive state...they go beyond depression.

cool. i don't care about the lyrical themes, i just want the music to be uber melancholic.
