Most disturbing song you've ever heard

Ian Curtis sounding exactly like a guy who would hang himself within a few months.

Coming from someone that's currently dealing wth feelings of suicide I have to say this is great to listen to. I'll likely get the help I need, but feel for this man so much. And anyone that's taken their own lives.

That’s what I thought of at first. I blew my load off in there already

This one comes with a true story. So, the guy who wrote this is a legit believer/promoter of crop circles (he even wrote a book on them). He's from my hometown and is pretty much a hippy who pickets the ISU campus against everything and tries to promote extra terrestrial awareness. This may sound like a joke but this guy is serious. He's pretty harmless overall. I recall a pianist friend of mine who went to see him like saying, "How could this man play an instrument (dulcimer) his whole life...and never learn how to play it?!"

What are they? Why are they? He's-hee

90% of Soundgarden songs. Once you realize he was depressed and suicidal they are all so painful to listen to.

The lyrics are already tongue-in-cheek disturbing
But the thought of two fans jumping in front of a train in a suicide pact while listening to this cause it was their favorite song adds a weird differant layer to it. (could be misremembering something but I'm pretty sure that was the story)

Eminem - Kim

First time hearing it when I was like 13 I was like WTF is this shit. That beat is nasty as fuck too

LOL you stole my answer. I remember a friend playing that for me in college and even then I was kind of freaked out. Of course by now I've seen and heard much much worse. Thanks internet!

I remember this dude from listening to the Opie & Anthony radio show years ago when he was an intern, his rich father tried to fund his flamboyant sons music career...



He's quite the lady's-manlet :lollipop_tears_of_joy:

"Jeanny" by Falco. One of the biggest and earliest REEEEEEEE moments in German music landscape, back in the 1980s.

The song is about a guy who has abducted a girl, and he's singing to her, describing the moments before he took her, how she wanted it too. Then there's a TV newsflash where it's revealed that there has been a series of disappearances, and that now there's another, 15 year old girl who went missing. Then the kidnapper/killer is singing to her that Police is coming, but they won't find her because she is with him.

Chilling song by a mad genius.

When Syd Barrett said "I'm wondering who could be writing this song..."

UGHHH gives me chills. It's like he was aware of his mental decline, but still awfully sarcastic and nonchalant about it.

The music itself is haunting and discordant and trails off into a cacophony.

I would never call ians music disturbing, haunting definately, but not because of suicide but because he sang of a world that had long fallen in on itself and given up. The title of that song is not coincidentally the same as a JG Ballard book, whom Ian was a fan and which he shared similarities in his writing topics.

My screen name is also..not a coincidence

LPD has so many its hard to choose....every album is either about the end of the world or the Illuminati or stepping off a train and winding up somewhere else. I always find the slow creep and dry sarcasm more terrifying then someone dressed like they smell bad and growling...i highly recommend listening when you are on the edge of sleep


A song about waiting for the world to end



A conversation with Satan, or God, or yourself



Bonus :

Maybe 'Jennifer Lost the War' by the Offspring? I liked the song a lot when I was a teenager (mostly cause it was edgy I guess), but those lyrics...

Jennifer lost the war today
You'll find her burned and raped
Through it all
She must have wondered
What have I done
But nobody really cares today
The world's a busy place
Guess she must have really sinned
I guess we're all just soldiers
She was only six years old
Left to die by strangers
Her family waits
And if we're all just soldiers
Is it so wrong to be afraid

That was before those guys went mainstream though.

Again, when I was teen, my mum wouldnt let me play Nirvanas "Rape Me" in the house. Fair enough I guess. lol
