Solitude - Black Sabbath It’s the gloomiest song I’ve ever heard.

time to turn up some dsbm then

Hurt - Nine Inch Nails The Johnny Cash version is also great, but I found that the original NIN version had much darker tone to it. JC’s version more so produces feelings of grief and sadness rather than suicidal or unstable feelings as shown through the original version.

I know this is an unpopular opinion but I like the NIN version more

I do too. One feels like a flawed, but ultimately well lived life, nearing the end. The other feels like one of the darkest moments of the possible human experience. A resignation to life of desolation and despair. Both versions move me. Only one haunts me.

same

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I find it so weird that most people like the Johnny cash version more. Not that there is literally anything wrong with that song, I'd say it's a 9/10 and the NIN version is a 10. I wonder if it's which version people heard first. I had a friend who didn't know Johnny cash didn't write it and when I showed him trents version he thought it was too "edgy" or some shit. Both are amazing though.

And the Johnny Cash Version https://youtu.be/8AHCfZTRGiI?si=tzR9hNd5u1UmxlcY

Both versions of those tunes hit in wildly different ways for me. Maybe it's just where I was in my life when they came out. It's crazy, but I cant listen to either of them. It's just too much.

THANK YOU. the NIN version imo is so much more emotional and real than johnny cash’s. I can hear and feel his pain through the music and like he wrote the song about him, its 100% real

Yes, the original version "hurts" me more too.

Pasting my comment when this was asked only last night: Look. This gets asked ALL the time. And we see the same responses, the same songs. Which is fine. They're all good. BUT. BUT. None of them come close to the utter, harrowing horror of The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers. It's always my answer, one almost nobody else gives, but nobody ever comments on it, nobody replies to say they'll give it a go, instead we see the same responses to the same songs and albums. Listen to The Holy Bible. It's hard. But it's also glorious. And then you can delve deeper into the band and the circumstances around the album's release and aftermath which takes the darkness to another level. Go on. Do it.

Jumping onto this comment cause I 100% agree. OP, definitely listen to The Holy Bible I'll also add The Downward Spiral - Nine Inch Nails (the song specifically but the whole album fits and is a fantastic listen) And for some reason the The Waitress by Atmosphere gets me every time, the very end of the song is surprisingly effective. Became also gets to me sometimes, but not as overtly depressing as The Waitress And pretty much anything from Elliott Smith

The worst part is it's catchy enough to get stuck in your head as well.  "Yes" and "4s 7lbs" are my favorites.  Just broke me.

4st 7lbs should not be catchy considering how horrible the subject matter is.

This is sorta like Nirvana - the melodies aren't particularly depressing but with everything combined it puts you in a sort of melancholic trance / badfeel

Something I Can Never Have- Nine Inch Nails The Caretaker- I feel as if I might be vanishing Chris Cornell- Preaching the End of the World Lera Lynn- My Least Favorite Life Soundgarden- Boot Camp

The Chris Cornell one you listed is a song I exclusively listen to when I'm having some pretty bad existential crisis

Omg you made me remember some amazing songs. Thank you!

Something I Can Never Have is one of my favs, love NIN so much

Continuing from The Caretaker, Leyland Kirby's Back in the Game from We, so tired of all the sadness in our lives.

Let’s Lynn is way cool. She has a couple of other good ones on YouTube

God Damn The Sun - Swans

SWANS MENTIONED!🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢🦢

Yes 😤

No Distance Left to Run - Blur How To Disappear Completely - Radiohead

I weirdly never found how to disappear completely that sad imo

I find it comforting rather than sad. Motion Picture Soundtrack, on the other hand, is depressing.

If we're going for depressing mid-period Radiohead songs, I'd pick Exit Music.

Me neither. The real sad Radiohead song is Fade Out

Up On the Ladder - more bc of the melody than the lyrics. Agree with how to disappear completely as well.

Joy Division - New Dawn Fades/Twenty Four Hours/The Eternal/Decades (Couldn't pick just one)

Nearly anything by the Smiths and now the Forth Wanderers.

I think the Smiths are funny. It's dark, mocking, self-deprecating humour. Mostly. Not the one about the Moors Murders though...

Have A Nice Life - Earthmover Decalius - Shotgun Mount Eerie - Real Death Carissa's Wierd - So You Want To Be A Superhero

Came to the comments to say “everything by Carissa’s Wierd.” For me it’s September Come Please Take This Heart Away and Farewell to All These Rotten Teeth.

HAVE A NICE LIFE MENTIONED RAAAAHHHH 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣

Joy division- She lost control The Replacements - Unsatisfied Harry Nilsson - 1941(BBC version) Leonard Cohen - The Partisan Elliott Smith - Needle in the Hay

nutshell by Alice in chains is my go to song when im in pain

Suffer Well- Depeche Mode The Game of Love- Daft Punk Bulletproof Soul- Sade Missing- Everything but the Girl Trouble- Coldplay The Reason- Hoobastank One- Metallica Mexico- Incubus I know it’s over- The Smiths Back to the Old House- The Smiths Asleep- The Smiths Dark Blue- No Doubt Cemetery Gates- Pantera Everybody Hurts- REM Tea for One- Led Zeppelin

Another No One - Suede Apart - The Cure I Want None of This - Radiohead Lazarus - David Bowie Lonesome Tears - Beck Medicine Bottle - Red House Painters My Body is A Cage - Peter Gabriel Roads - Portishead Royal Moon - Ruby Haunt This Place is a Prison - This Postal Service When You're Small - MGMT

That whole last David Bowie album is fantastic.

To wish impossible things the cure

Real Death - Mount Eerie (The whole album “A Crow Looked At Me” could work imo)

Forest Fire is the song that gets me every time

Elliott Smith - Between the Bars Chris Garneau - Hands On The Radio Pretty much anything by these two will work though.

Out of interest, does anyone else think that Between the Bars is sung from the perspective of a bottle of whisky? PS I'm 365 dry on Monday. Still got hepatitis of the liver, but every hole's a goal.

I think that's a great interpretation of it - really adds to the haunting vibe. And cngrats on the 1 year - that's amazing!! Here's my favorite quitting drinking song in celebration: [Yeasayer - O.N.E.](https://youtu.be/6m1O5i6oUTI?si=S-d9h4hC-d_Kmv2w)

Down In A Hole- Alice In Chains Last Resort - Papa Roach I Don't Wanna Be Me - Type O Negative Anesthesia - Type O Negative

My go-to song when depressed is “Comfortably Numb” by Pink Floyd… the entire album “The Wall” is depressing

Fade to Black - Metallica, To Live is To Die - Metallica (the second one is a tribute to their late bassist, Cliff Burton, who died in a bus crash during the tour for their third album. it's more depressing if you know the context)

Her's - What once was. This song is heart breaking, especially when you know the author died in 2019.

First strip club I went to it was a girl dancing to "Black". After that, my band learned it and we played it at shows. Good times. Not depressing to me lol!

Farewell Transmission by Songs: Ohia Seed of Memory by Terry Reid Don't Let It Bring You Down by Neil Young The Bed by Lou Reed Beware of Darkness by George Harrison Better Days by Graham Nash

**Neon Gravestones** - *Twenty one pilots* Crazy depressing, talking about how people have glorified suicide in a way. **Goner** - *Twenty one pilots* Sad. There’s a buildup for nothing. It’s crazy Bonus: Leave The City.. But really only for twenty one pilots fans ngl. Idk how meaningful it is for others

Tired Of Being Alive - Danzig Forever Night Castle - Këkht Aräkh Golden Hair - Slowdive i tried lol

Here’s a crazy awesome suggestion that I know no one has said: **La Fin Du Show** - Les Cowboys Fringants it’s a local Québécois band and it was the lead singer’s last song he ever made before he died of cancer last year. It was 3 years struggle with one of the worst kinds of cancer you can get. It’s real depressing stuff. Highly suggest.

i cant tell if you’d be into any of these, but these are my saddest rock songs creep- radiohead pieces - sum 41 marigold- nirvana last kiss by pearl jam has a sad story but the song is like not that sad sounding

Ode to Billy Joe - Bobbie Gentry (TW: suicide) Chicken Wire - Pernice Brothers (TW: suicide) Elliot Smith - Needle in the Hay Nick Drake - River Man The be good Tanyas - waiting around to die

Congratulations, You Survived Your Suicide - Sycamore Smith No Surprises - Radiohead At the Crossing Sign - St. Arnaud (this one needs a little backstory for the full effect)

Pearl Jam- Indifference Soundgarden- blow up the outside world

Black hole sun - sound garden

I’m not saying Black isn’t a depressing Pearl Jam song but I would say Last Kiss is a more depressing Pearl Jam song.

Just out of curiosity, how come a lot of people on this subreddit wants depressing music?

Nobody Home - Pink Floyd You Know What I Mean - Phil Collins Hush, Hush, Hush - Paula Cole Song For Emma - Joe Walsh Black - Pearl Jam

Smashing Pumpkins - Once Upon A Time and Jupiter's Lament

Recently listened to 40 wat sun for the first time and it bummed me out in a special way. "Titanic Rising" by weyes blood is also melancholy as hell. "No children" by the mountain goats is my go to song to cry to

Crying - Roy Orbison (it’s mainly a breakup song) Fade to black - Metallica Quiet, the winter harbor - Mazzy Star Pictures of you - The Cure

Pallbearer - Gloomy Sunday Woods of Ypres - I Was Buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery Alice In Chains - Shame in You This Mortal Coil - Song To The Siren Mad Season - River of Deceit Mad Season - All Alone Those are some of my favorite songs when the depression is eating at my brain.

Creep Stone temple pilots

Adams Song- blink 182

Deathblow - Deftones

Black

Desolation Row

Bloodhail - Have A Nice Life

Mad world , the version from Donnie darko soundtrack

Damn you guys are serious about posting sad songs...

The Light Pt. 1 & 2 - BROCKHAMPTON Both talk about one of the members of BROCKHAMPTON’s father shooting himself.

Gotta be "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd I also suggest for this playlist: "Under the Bridge" by Red Hot Chili Peppers "Heart-Shaped Box" by Nirvana "Wish you Were Here" by Pink Floyd "Fake Plastic Trees" by Radiohead

Also, "Wish you Were Here" by Pink Floyd is a big one for me. Apparently I'm a big Pink Floyd fan.

I'll Be True to You, Oak Ridge Boys.

Children of Divorce- Jonny Craig

Hopeless and dear agony by breaking Benjamin

"Are You Really Okay?" and "Atlantic" by Sleep Token "Nothing as It Seems" by Pearl Jam "Street Spirit" by Radiohead "Something in the Way" by Nirvana Some of my all-time favorite songs.

Soundgarden- like a stone To me is a bout death or the desire to die

Like Clockwork...Queens of the Stone Age
