It's just so amazing how he's able to portray his feelings so accurately. A lot of people think the album is a joke though. |

There was a band called Bleak who made an album of gothy coldwave about 14 years ago called "The Weather Vane" which is actually kinda cool despite being gothy coldwave and rather overbearing.
But I don't think anything can really hold a candle so devoid of light that it could be bleaker than the latest Brainbombs singles collection. That song "Stinking Memory" is so filthy and scarring.

I still think Berlin by Lou Reed holds up perfectly. I absolutely love that records, and yet can only listen to it through once every couple of years.

Both the Joy Division albums might go here. Bright Eyes is right.
Okay, I've found my winner. Chorus by lovesliescrushing. The album sounds like the howling wind in the pitch black and frigid Arctic with no one around for a thousand miles. All you have is your thoughts. This album honestly never gets beyond a crawl, all the songs sound almost the same, the vocals are nearly inaudible and totally indecipherable, and the instrumentation is just shy of being the literal embodiment of a tidal-wave of sound. ![]()

The Cure - Pornography
Everyone says Disintegration is so depressing, but it has so many nice, uplifting melodies.

In addition to that..
Frusciante's Niandra La Des and Usually Just a T-Shirt, Elliott Smith's From A Basement on the Hill, maybe In Utero as well. Albums that sound like someone going downhill. |

I got F#A# pretty recently, about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I've listened to it twice, both times in my car, and passed an ambulence at the exact same part both times (somewhere around the Drugs in Tokyo section). That album scares me.

I don't see Godspeed as being bleak and all that. To me, their music has always been filled with hope.

I can definitely see that. But for the most part, it's a very lonely path.
