Your ANATHEMA utimate doom/depressing mix!

[Manbient]

ok folks, i'm going to make a "best of" of Anathema to get the most sad and dreary possible! So i am wondering from all of you, what would you say is the ultimate 60-80 minutes of dispair you could make from anathema? I'll add my list in a bit when i think about it.

 

[toreador]

78 minutes of dispair-most sad and dreary songs

1.lost control(5:49)*
2.alternative 4(6:17)*
3.regret (7:58)*
4.re-connect(3:52)*
5.angelica(5:50)*
6.the beloved(4:44)*
7.eternity part I(5:35)*
8.suiside veil(5:10)*
9.eternity part III(4:43)*
10.cries on the wind(5:01)*
11.the silent enigma(4:24)*
12.a dying wish(8:11)*
13.sweet tears(4:14)*
14.sleepless(4:12)*
15.mine is yours to drown in(5:39)*

Here is a solution for your "best of". It was quite a hard decision you know. I would put them in another order, of course. Cheers!

It's simple:

1) All of Eternity (except the annoying Pink Floyd song )
2) All of Alternative 4

There ya go

 

[requiem]

Without working out correct times, mine would look something like this,

1. Sentient (Eternity)
2. Angelica (Eternity)
3. Shroud of False (Alt 4)
4. Fragile Dreams
5. The Silent Enigma (TSE)
6. J'fait Une Promess (Serenades)
7. Lost Control (Alt 4)
8. Shroud of Frost (TSE)
9. Feel (Alt 4)
10. Restless Oblivion (TSE)
11. Inner Silence (Alt 4)
12. One Last Goodbye (Judgement)
13. Re-Connect (Alt 4)
14. Deep (Judgement)
15. The Silent Enigma -Orchestral (Bonus Track)


And I've bloody forgotten all about A Fine Day... !!!! Oh well, excluding A Fine Day (which is the best 11 tracks anyway!), this would be my list. Although breaking up the albums themselves is something of a problem for continuity.

Definitely got to have "J'ai Fait Une Promesse" from Serenades on your compilation !

i think you meant "hope" which was composed by david guilmor...it's not annoying at all, on the contrary, it's a masterpiece, but of course it shouldnt be put in a "doom/depressive" list.

 

[Sopel]

Remeber about "Alternative 4" song!!! It's my favourite song currently. Great atmosphere, great music! Feel it!!!

 

[LoboUivante]

DYING WISH
Restless Oblivion
Silent Enigma
UNDER A VEIL
Everwake & J'ai Fai Une Promesse
...alone
CRESTFALLEN
Gateways of Bereavement... wait.. that's Katatonia
Shroud of False
Shroud of Frost
One Last Goodbye

 

[discouraged1]

Goodbye Cruel World(I know it's not theirs, but it's interpretation that counts)
One of the Few(whoops again)
Shroud of False
Dreaming:the Romance

that's it.
for tonight.
(whoops, there's Katatonia influence in here)

 

[discouraged1]

When I give it a second thought, put Dreaming:the Romance three times (in a row) on the compilation and you will have the most 'dreary' CD ever made.

Why the hell doesn't anybody include "They (will always) Die", that must the most depressing song on "Serenades", along with "Sweet Tears" perhaps...

danny cavanagh here... this is my doom depress mix of anathema songs...

1. one last goodbye
2. lost control
3. suicide veil
4. alone
5. they die
6. crestfallen
7. alternative 4
8. eternity part 2
9. better off dead (cover)
10. the sweet suffering
11. destiny

of course you canchoose an alternative 11 songs that would still be just as doom-mongous!!!!
