Leonard Cohen's entire discography

>>70167589
While technically a piece, Beethoven's Cavatina.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjQb4-03ojk

"The first violin is somehow overcome, no longer singing, no longer even able to connect one note to another, voiceless yet desperate to give voice. The line cannot find tears with which to cry, it gropes for language where there is none. Within the world of Op. 130 and its investigation of the limits of musical language and form this is the moment of revelation. The movement which is to sing loses its capacity to do so, or cannot find the inspiration to support it. Exquisite paradox: Music is inadequate to express what pleads to be expressed; this failure is flawlessly expressed by music. The Cavatina has an ending, one in which the idea of a fundamental vibration-pulsation meets the initial stammer of the movement and offers uneasy consolation, but there is little stable comfort to be had here. The fissure between depth of feeling and language too feeble to hold it in its entirety is too great for that."

Giles Corey is pretty depressing.

Joy Division - Atmosphere

this is a beautiful closer to a 10/10 album but I'll say that after finding out where the sample is from took away a bit of the seriousness to it

if you don't know what the sample is from then don't bother

Nah, couldn't be more wrong. Didn't realize the order mattered

here's some electronic recs to cry to

Stumbleine - Thawn: winter feels. this and the whole Infinite Overcast album is beautiful. See if you recognise the brilliantly manupiulated vocal sample of a popular song in the track. Also sounds like American Football, but electronic, towards the end

Massive Attack vs. Burial - Paradise Circus: my favourite piece of music. this tune has an enveloping emotion to it that slowly reveals itself. listen throughout and you will be rewarded.

Nine Inch Nails - Hurt: Well, kinda electronic. Best representation of suicide in a track I've ever heard. Just as the singer wonders if he can "start again" and realises that he could "make it work" at the last minute before death, massive distorted guitars completely muffle the lyric, representing the moment of death. The dissonance and fuckiness of the track also symbolises to me the incomplete this man's life was - that his suicide was unnecessary and a shame.

Jon Hopkins - Open Eye Signal (Asleep Version): ambient version of the revolutionary progressive tech house track. Listen to the end and you'll be hear the most emotional piano sequence ever.

Burial - In McDonalds: ambient. just let the soundscape and the title do the work. Imagine yourself sitting alone, in McDonalds on a rainy night. The music is your thoughts.

Asa - Leave The Light On: I see this track as a reflection on childhood, even though it's got samples from the UK series Skins scattered through it. Still can't really work out what Asa was thinking when he made this. Just fucking sublime electronic and I've never heard anything like it before. watch out for his new album in 2017 guys.

Nick Cave - O' Children

>>70177101
I think the most depressing song by AIC is the Unplugged performance of Sludge Factory. Layne screwing up the lyrics really reveals how bad his mental state was at the time.

My pick is the album How It Feels to be Something On by Sunny Day Real Estate. Something about the tone of the guitar and the bass, Enigk's lyrics and vocal delivery, and the drawn back, melancholy songwriting tugs at my heartstrings like no other album can
