5_moves_of_doom 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2004 Various Fantomas and Mike Patton in general projects will show up here no doubt... uhm... but I'd have to say Slint's Spiderland, Sonic Youth's Confusion is Sex (well just three or four songs rather than the whole album, but still...,) and... hrm, for some reason that's all that I can think of right now. I'll return later. Tom Waits scares the shit out of my girlfriend, it should be noted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gary Floyd 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2004 Merzbow (I know, it's noise, but try "Age of 369/Chant 2" and "Music for Bondage Performance 1&2" to warp your views of pornography forever) Coil ("Unreleased Themes for Hellraiser", "Scatology",and "How to Destroy Angels") Skinny Puppy ("Last Rights". Possibly the most disturbing sounding album ever recorded) Current 93 (Their first two albums "Nature Unveiled" and "Dogs Blood Rising" will give you nightmares for weeks) Boyd Rice (Most of his work under the psydonyme "NoN") Goblin (Italian Prog Rock band who did scores and soundtracks for horror films. Check out the original OST's for "Deep Red", "Suspiria", and "Dawn of the Dead") Throbbing Gristle (The ORIGINAL industrial band. Try "DOA") Lydia Lunch ("Queen of Siam" mostly sounds like funeral music) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2004 The scariest artist I know is Diamanda Galas. She plays the piano and sings in a very original, skin crawling voice. Maybe sort of like Billie Holliday if I had to compare her to someone. Anyway, The Litanies of Satan is probably her most disturbing album. Old Testament prophecy and Latin. But everything she does, from her collection of negro spirituals to the records that are just screaming with no musical accompaniment are disturbing on some level.

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted October 6, 2004 Pigface is pretty good about this. Definitely Throbbing Gristle, as was mentioned. Slug Bait in particular. However, the album that fucks with me more than any other is Ween: The Pod. The vocal weirdness, the laughing, multiple references to Pork Roll Egg and Cheese, until it becomes a sort of mantra in your subconscience, and you almost start drifting off the road. It's just..weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember her reindition of "Dancing in the Dark" in the end credits of "Lord of Illusions" giving me the chill Three more for ya Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds:Murder Ballads ("Where the Wild Roses Grow" is particularly creepy, while "The Curse of Milhaven" has an odd dark sense of humor to it) Current 93:Thunder Perfect Mind (You'll never look at folk music the same way again) John Zorn and Naked City:Torture Garden (Some of the most chaotic free-jazz ever recorded. Almost like a free jazz/grindcore fusion) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AboveAverage484 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Yeah, "Melissa" and "Don't Break the Oath" by Mercyful Fate is some evil shit. Don't listen to AoO, run out and get these because they're scary and the guitar kicks ass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B. Brian Brunzell 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Speaking of Mike Patton, Faith No More's King for a Day, Fool for a Lifetime contains some weird and creepy shit, most notably "Coocoo for Caca" and "Ugly in the Morning", with the former being just some of the most insane snarling, yelling, screaming and growling I've ever heard on record. The entire first Fantomas album is a soundtrack for a hallucenigenic-induced nightmare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nevermortal 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 Speaking of King Diamond, has anyone heard of 3 Inches of Blood? Typical power-metal/thrash fusion when it comes to the instruments, but the singer sounds like someone tossed King Diamond, the dude from Voivod, and a random black metal singer in a blender and hit puree. The funniest thing about them though is the face that they sing about orcs, dragons, and all other stereotypical power metal bullshit, but they look like every other generic metal-core/hardcore band out there today. Album cover: 3 Inches of Blood: Weihd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 Butthole Surfers - Locust Abortion Technician and yeah, TG. 'Persuasion' is currently a favourite, and 'Hamburger Lady' is probably the scariest. You need the sleevenotes though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 The Microphones - Mount Eerie A concept album (yes, it's a concept album) that focuses on death; filtered through frontman Phil Elvrum's childlike worldview, coupled with a relentlessly dour, atmospheric soundtrack of drones and detuned acoustic guitars, creates a subtle sense of dread throughout. I once fell asleep listening to this album, only to dream about Jeffrey Dahmer. True story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 I recall recommending the Residents' Roadworms to IDRM as a slice of fuckered up shit, I mainly like it because the intention of the original version of Wormwood was to scare the shit out of everybody, and it was sometimes a bit tame. Not this time. Christ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2004 You're very right, in fact I didn't mention that in case you decided to show up I'd let you have the credit. I've listened to a good chunk of Residents stuff by now, it's still the sickest thing they did. Except Krafty Cheese. Now that's scary. I think I'll go out and get a couple of the albums mentioned here today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Typical power-metal/thrash fusion when it comes to the instruments, but the singer sounds like someone tossed King Diamond, the dude from Voivod, and a random black metal singer in a blender and hit puree. Checked it out. Good music, though the lead singer sounds like Starscream/Cobra Commander Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
