    He looks just like me, a mirror

    The more you read, we've been deceived
    Everyday it becomes clearer,...

    Clearer.

    I came across this article today which kind of relates to what you're asking. At the very least, you may get some recommendations from it:

    So I was working on a cd and needed some downer music so I came back to this thread and noticed you said this song, I just want to give props on that since for the last three months everybody has been asking for this at work and here you were almost a year ahead of teh curve.

    i didn't read the whole thread, but throw on the Eels' "Electro-Shock Blues" if you're feeling bummed out. It will sink you in the ground even more. It is one of the most depressing albums I've ever heard.

    Blood on the Tracks by Dylan is good too. Tangled up in Blue is just that.

    Has to be most songs by the Smiths. One of my all time favourite bands.

    DEATH OF A DISCO DANCER
    The death of a disco dancer
    well, it happens a lot 'round here
    and if you think Peace
    is a common goal
    well, that goes to show
    just how little you know
    The death of a disco dancer
    well, I'd rather not get involved
    I never talk to my neighbour
    I'd just rather not get involved
    Love, peace and harmony?
    Love, peace and harmony?
    Oh, very nice
    very nice
    very nice
    very nice
    ...but maybe in the next world

    ... it's so glum it's hysterical.

    Alice in Chains "Tripod." I always put that album on when I feel really depressed. My fav. AIC record, smacks you in the motherfuckin' face!!

    Totally agree..there is something so anguishing about this record. I love it. The album never gets the credit it deserves. Shame In You is a great song when depressed.

    I agree... although shame in you kinda makes me feel worse since it just reminds me of Layne.

    "And you must change patterns all we trained
    Or n'er regain peace you seek
    Now you hear me, for the things I see
    Yeah, I believe in inner peace, yeah"

    that makes me want to cry, especially the last line.
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"
