What do you guys listen to.......

[white shoe]

........when you fell like shit? Or when you feel down and that nothing could cheer you up?

 

[The Shape]

When I'm pissed or what not I listen to Death Metal or Black Metal. When I need cheering up I find Rhapsody or Lost Horizon do the trick. Opeth makes me feel good too.

 

[Pieless]

Down? Sigur Ros - ( ), Alice in Chains - Dirt, Devin Townsend - Terria, and SYL - City have been my main "down" albums as of late. I should really try My Dying Bride though...

 

[Scourge of Malice]

Dark Tranquility - Damage Done (a lot of emotion in this album)
Rapture
October Tide

 

[Alex78]

when I'm really down, I don't listen to any music. I just sit there and stare.
if I'm just a little angry I put on some SYL and that works

 

[Mayh]

Katatonia, My dying bride, GYBE, Will Oldham, Nick Cave, Nick Drake.

 

[yourdeadgroom]

Doom, anything really, Dolorian are good for feeling down. Doom picks me up

 

[Spod2508]

Generally, if I'm feeling down, I'll play guitar instead of listening to music. Normally I start off playing little acoustic numbers andend up playing stuff like AE or IF

 

[J.]

If I'm feeling down, and I want to remain that way, I'll put on some Slow Horse, Nightingale, Skepticism, or Mourning Beloveth.


If I'm feeling down and want to break stuff, I listen to Kiss It Goodbye.

If I'm feeling down and want to cheer up, I'll have sex with my girlfriend.

 

[Cama_Zotz]

Regardless of my mood, I'm always listening to metal. Mostly death, black, or doom. When I'm not listening to metal, I listen to blues or classical. Åkerfeldt said that he could write a whole album after listening to listening to something like Mozart. I would love to hear that. ^.^

 

[Sengir*Buendia]

One of my all-time-favorite album is also the most depressing I know: Theatre of Tragedy's Velvet Darkness They Fear. EVERY TIME I listen to it I feel like dying, immediately when Liv enters: "Reflected the silver shield this welkin aghast!"
People, the feeling is strong. I STRONGLY recommend this album to ANYONE into doom. Opeth fans should appeal to it! (and Aegis, their other masterpiece)
"And when he falleth" remains as my all-time-favorite song, with its lyrics on religious skepticism and beautiful piano/guitar harmonies!!!!

 

[Hope Leaves]

Morningrise and Damnation...these are for when I just want to relax or whatever.
Led Zeppelin IV and any random Metallica bootleg usually help to cheer me up though.

 

[karelrulez]

I'm always happy! I'm never down! Well ok reaaaally sometimes.. My friends tell me 'metal' is only for the depressed but that's not true ain't it? We're all happy guys right?

 

[no country for old wainds]

I rarely get 'down', I just get deep and reflective or something. Nothing ever bothers me because I don't expect much, and I don't take much seriously, so when bad things happen I can deal with them.

Not that you cared. :/

 

[fleshhead]

If I'm feeling down, and I want to remain that way, I listen to any number of things. There's so many shades of "Down" that there is no single answer. My answers range from Godflesh to Joy Division.

If I'm feeling down and want to break stuff, I listen to Godflesh. Or anything else with loud, dissonant guitar noise.

If I'm feeling down and want to cheer up, I'll have sex with Dreamlord's girlfriend.

 

[Innbydelse]

Nevermore-Insignificant

 

[Flood]

I listen to Tool - Lateralus. It's a really inspiring album -- not to mention uplifting.

 

[illbeleavinnow]

If I'm ever feeling down I listen to pop music to turn the sadness into anger and then I play Limp Bizkit's Break Stuff and rampage around my house screaming.

 

[MasterOLightning]

Don't call me gay or anything, but Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence by Dream Theater does it for me.

 

[illbeleavinnow]

I don't have any Limp Bizkit CDs. I just have some MP3's left over from my rap days. At the time I didn't know what to call them so I just went with "They're so original, I'll just have to call them 'Limp Bizkit music'"

I was a weird kid in those days.
