Having the motivation to listen to music or do anything usually means you're not depressed.
>>69521783
You don't need motivation to passively consume music, this meme needs to die. People listen to sad music for catharsis, enjoyment is only secondary.

what fucking album is this i have been wondering forever and ive never seen the title anywhere

from personal experience when I cut my self and my gf called 911 to save me
that whole day I didn't want to listen to any music or even get out of bed besides grabbing a knife
then again everybody is different. but if somebody can make a thread on 4chan i don't think hes close to killing himself
>>69521872
fair enough buddy
just saying that listening to music really requires no effort or motivation at all.
What is your experience with sad music like Red House Painters, Xiu Xiu etc.? Does it help sometimes? Or do you avoid those like the plague?

thx for nothing m8

I love those albums but I've listen to them so much and have read everything about both of those artists(interviews, influences) that its more of a things will get better experience for me.
still love listening to songs like thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn2eR7Xq4KM and slowdive
but atm when I feel like im slipping back into that feeling I just meditate as cliche as it sounds. it really works

Holy shit, are you me? I've literally done the exact same thing with Mark Kozelek and Jamie Stewart. I still don't really get Kozelek, he seems so delusional and vulnerable at the same time and on his newer SKM albums his life and his family seem really functional to me. I never really understood how he reached a point at his life where he could record Colorful Hill and Rollercoaster and just move on. I mean Jamie Stewart has a terribly painful history but you can easily trace where his lyrics come from.

One of the best acoustic covers you'll hear, dark and mournful
>>69522068
listen to this if you haven't already https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCJ8Qq6A8mk
explains how hes been able to move on. Tho i still relate more towards jamie
>>69522165
I've heard that one but there is some history with drug addiction that I still can't really understand. Apparently he had to go to rehab when he was 14.
>>69521676
Not him, but music like this helps me. It doesn't make me feel sad, it's just comfortable.
And depression is more feeling nothing than sad, so I like things that illicit actual emotions.
>>69522272
Mark's a weird dude hopefully he'll write a book one day.
>>69521832
Yes you do
>>69521630
Lot of the lyrics in pic related will fit the bill (lyricist killed himself) though the music is more straightforward (but good) alt rock.
true catharsis requires capacity for pleasure. if op is suicidally depressed, he's more than likely experiencing some degree of anhedonia. tl;dr OP shouldn't be holing up in his room listening to music but getting psychiatric help.

Why is this album a meme on /mu/ but not known anywhere else?

Weighing Souls with Sand is an album that absolutely crushes me when I listen to it.
