There is a small indie band called Kabir Cafe, whose songs are inspired by a 14th-15th century poet- philosopher called Kabir. Those are some amazing songs to hear to.
Liquor Bottle by Herbal T. Has a nice faux-upbeat rhythm with jazzy kinda beats, but lyrics.are dark. Definitely helps me keep a sane face on the dark days:
And that's why / I keep a
A liquor bottle in the freezer ♪
In case I gotta take it out ♫
Mix me a drink
To help me
Forget all the things
In my life that I worry about ♪ ♫
Wax and Herbal T both nail those faux-upbeat type songs
I have several actually:
- As mentioned earlier: Portishead - Threads. Actually, the whole album is perfect for a certain desolate mood.
- The God Machine - Picture of a Bleeding Boy
- The Cure - End
- Joy Division - Komakino
- Nine Inch Nails - The Wretched

I'm a big music snob, and I'm in my forties, but Decompression Period by Papa Roach hit me really hard the first time I heard it, and it's always one I go back to. I've never had a bad breakup or anything, but it really captures the feeling for me.
Y'all are in the mood for music when you're depressed?
Yeah I cry to sad songs when I'm depressed.
When I'm happy, I try not to listen to sad music because it brings the mood down. But when you're already feeling like shit, sad music helps you feel even worse. LPT

You just won't lie down. Even closing your eyes, you can't let it go, Surrounded inside. Leave it alone. You don't get it back Undoing the scenes you can't explain, Whatever you dream That you've buried away. It seems like you're there as someone removed And left in their place with nothing to do. Bound to the switch. Railing again at the thought of the fight For well-earned dissent Undeserved at the time. As you've been shown, the motion has gone A shade of the night, only leading you on.

Bad Life by Sigrid+Bring Me The Horizon. Very on-the-nose but it's a damn good song.
808 OG trap beats
Whipping boy - we don't need nobody else
After opening the news and gandering at the state of the world for a different perspective; I drop back to AJR - Way Less Sad.

I've got a whole fucking playlist for real sadboy hours on rainy drives home where I want to get lost in the back of my mind and it's like 50% this band.

The whole soundtrack (and game) is wonderful, and it develops across the album through to hope. The first few tracks though, they take me back to a point of great sorrow and straight through the stages of grief.

Giving up by Corbin and sodus cementeries
