Hello!

Thanks for visiting this page, because I would like to get some help from You, TLer.
Since around summer I've been feeling down pretty all the time, but that's not what I want to talk about in that blog (keep in mind my grammar fails a lot, so that's hard too) , I want to know some artists who play sad/ambient/dark ambient music.
Uhm, also I was on a school trip with my new class (I think that's the right word o.o) + another class from our year. It was quite cool I must admit, the weather was quite horrible but the time was well spent. The girls are good looking too, so there was something to enjoy ^_^ (by looking at them, I am awkward socially because I am quite insane and bi-polar) So yeah. Sad music, music about love, music about wars and sad events... Please share good tracks/artists who sing about that (I know people like Justin Bieber sing about love, but that's not something I want right now, lol. It fits when You are having good laughter with gamer bros in TF2 with Demopans though.)

To be honest, it's not unreasonable for him to want to find something that fits his mood. I'm bipolar, and my music tastes tend to suit my mood as well...I generally don't listen to hardcore or something when I'm happy, or metal. Usually it's quieter, more somber stuff. No lyrics ambient stuff is my personal favorite.


Not sure if it'll fit your taste, but I really love Tycho when I'm depressed/unhappy.

Look up "The Fragile" by Nine Inch Nails - the whole album is gloomy, sad and definitely a great piece of music

No need to be down bro! Everyone goes through stages like this in their life but the best thing you can do is bang on some trance and dance like the Starcraft star that you are my friend!



Hope you feel better after some auidotherapy XP

Goodspeed You! Black Emperor - Try "Sleep", but be warned, you rarely get away with tracks below the 20 minute mark.




Also check out Mono (japanese band) and their album "Hymn to the Immortal Wind"




A lot of Mogwai songs are fitting as well.

Tropical isn't really as sad as it is dark, but I dunno. It usually does the trick when I'm feeling down.

The Fragile is an amazing album, yes. Rob Dougan's vocal tracks are also some of my favorites that should fit what you're looking for. I'll give some songs instead though, rather than general references. Tossing out a lot of random stuff, hope you've got an eclectic music taste.









































That should get you started at least.

I am friend of all and best friend of none. There are people who were together with me for three years in one class and they don't know anything about me. Even those I've hang out a bit. Life's a bit hard on Your own and after You get used to it it's hard to live another way.
Thanks a lot for music, great tracks so far, I appreciate everything You've linked and given here
