Is this the saddest album ever made?

Is this the saddest album ever made?

No, but it's pretty miserable

I can see a lot of people not being affected at all by that album. Also I can see a lot of people not understanding what the lyrics mean

this exists

they are pretty straight forward quite honestly

nope

+1
tears were shed

Hospice is sad, but it isn't depressive

fuck this album

If you've had a best friend or a lover who's died to cancer, possibly. I know Hospice personally fucked me up inside when I first listened to it a few years after my close friend passed away from leukemia.

But guys

WHOAH WHAT AN ARGUMENT

A GOOOOOOD FRIEND

Pornography is the saddest album.
Songs written by someone so close to suicide that let it all out in a cry of agony was the only thing that could save him.

"It doesn't matter if we all die..."
A very nice beginning for an album at the time

It tries way too hard to sound sad, and ends up sounding like the fucking Fault in Our Stars or something.

what i got from it was that being in an abusive relationship but not being able to let go is like watching someone you love die. is this accurate?

What does shenryyr look like

literally over-sentimentality: the album

Nah

Listened to this yesterday, I really disliked it despite liking the idea behind the album + a few musical moments.

Yeah, as in it's really sad how much it sucks.

No.

Dying of cancer is a metaphor for crippling emotional and behavioral issues in his lover due to a fucked up childhood. Him being a hospice worker for her is a metaphor for him being utterly sympathetic and understanding of her psychological problems to the point where he can excuse and look past them even as they take their toll on him and his life. Her death is their breakup where she just disappears with no warning like she constantly threatens to do.

I hope you at least got that Bear was about an unwanted pregnancy and abortion.

Obviously not. Although I'm not sure why you'd call a concept album spanning metaphor straightforward even if it's a clear one.

Or you get the obvious metaphor that somehow elludes 90% of Sup Forums to connect with the more universal issue.

This album really isn't that sad apart from LYSHCO and So Real.

itt

>tfw last relationship followed this parallel but i ended it because i couldn't take it anymore

Did you fool yourself into believing or at least feeling like you could save them? That's really the core of the metaphor right there. That and getting kind of fucked up in future relationships yourself because of the experience.

It's tied with Deathconsciousness.

What am I looking at here? It's a violin, but on a cliff above lava? or...? wtf?

oh shit it's Mr. Krab's claw, I see it now.

its mr creb playin the world smalist gitar

...

>dont everrr let anyoneee tell you youu deserve thatt

...

Not even close

>tfw 8/10 girl that has a long history of doing exactly this with guys wants to fuck me

Is it worth it Sup Forums?
Is

YOUR PICTURE

This could be album art

It would be hard to crop in a way that would keep it looking like a claw

I think I have you all beat.

i honestly don't think any of you can top this

B-but that's not Low's 1994 debut LP 'I Could Live In Hope'

Its a violin you autist

This album didn't even seem sad to me when I heard it, just really pretty

It's probably more maudlin knowing that he killed himself 2 years later.

Fuck her, always worth it

The album is melancholic at best. There's more than in being sad.

Yes

This sounds like it was written by an angsty 13 year old

IS STILL

Honestly? Most stories about romance, or the lack thereof, are a bit stale to me. Silberman did a good job with it, but that doesn't stop it from being a breakup album. Granted, I don't know many sadder but I'm too depressed to listen to music.

I listened to it once and understood all of that and I'm absolutely shit at reading most subtext. I like the Antlers but they're not exactly subtle.

Not unless you're emotionally masochistic.
Which if you are, you might do better to see a shrink. But same.

>mr. creb
>smalist
you really didn't realize that that was b8?
who's the autist, really?

It's "tfw no gf" music, but really good "tfw no gf" music

Really? To me it seems kinda comfy despite the lyrics. It feels like sitting around a campfire on a cold night with a woolen blanket. And sometimes the blanket catches fire but you always extinguish it right before it becomes a problem and before any major damage is done to the blanket.
