Disturbing Music

[Allhallowsday]

If you want REAL insanity, none of that stuff comes close to this crap.  Whoever wrote this song has some seriously severe and profound brain damage.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYDzVklFQRk

Yes, that would be JON ANDERSON.    

And now, here's another TRULY disturbing song from an artist who never fails to disturb me deeply.

Now yer just playin' with us.  You want disturbing PHIL COLLINS?  Skip ahead to 2:15 if you can't take it (I like this song).

The problem with musical noise is that there is a very thin line between it and, well, noise. That original Blod post seems to lean more towards pure noise. I can see how it might strike the right chord, especially if you are inebriated on something, but I don't think it has much more to it than static noise. You could probably achieve the same effect by playing white noise full blast on your computer and turning a horror movie on in the background.

Or just put on LOU REED's Metal Machine Music. 

Some people find this guy disturbing, and I sometimes do too, and I listen to his records.  This weird live performance is of one of my favorites of his from Shiny Beast/Bat Chain Puller:

I love a lot of weird "experimental" music, the original Industrial artists of the 70's Cabaret Voltaire, Throbbing Gristle, SPK, Severed Heads etc... up through the Wax Trax era of the 80's with Ministry, Skinny Puppy, and the like. Noise as a music form is more interesting in theory than in practice although I do enjoy some noise artists like Merbow, Nurse With Wound, and The Mnemonists. The genre as a whole suffers from too many noise artists just sounding like white noise blasted at full volume for 20 mins.

Aussie band SPK whose main member Graeme Revell should be a familiar name as he scores a lot of Hollywood films now.

Maldoror - a one-off project by Mike Patton (Faith No More) and Masami Akita (Merzbow)

As far as disturbing the only time I actually got unnerved and had to look over my shoulder while listening to music with my headphones on was with this artist called Kerovnian. Not this particular song per se, but you get the idea.

Behold the horror that is... HEINO!!

German national treasure, and opposite universe Roy Orbison.

[Mofo Rising]

Well, here's a song that can clear a party in seconds flat.

Obviously, the politics of this song is more than a bit provocative. It's the execution that I find terrifying. So wrong-headed on multiple levels.

I know somebody who has a text version of this song on their wall.

When I was about seven, a friend of mine played me a song on his stereo and the idiot also put off the lights. About three minutes later, I was yelling in fear, having never heard stereo sound before, also because of the weird noises, the dark and the strange vocals.

Surprisingly, the music playing was by The Moody Blues, the album was Every Good Boy Deserves Favour and the first track on that album "Procession" was the one that scared the sh*t out of me. If I make a horror film, that's the main title theme for sure. 

Even more surprisingly, Justin Hayward and his band have been my favourite group since then, all of which goes to show that what scares you as a kid isn't necessarily bad, and in this case, it wasn't.

I have several Slint Albums.   Butthey don't disturb me.  One that does is a COIL album called "the Angelic Conversation"...Its low-key ambient music, with a  really quiet voice reciting Shakespeare's Sonnets.  I put it on and after a few minutes I start looking behind curtains and turning on all the lights.  It just flips the creepy switch

My friend showed this one time, and I laughed at the fake lyrics.. Then I felt the need to read the actual lyrics.. Yeah, they are disturbing to say the least. If you can understand what he's saying, then NSFW. By the way, the name of the song is Chased Through The Woods By A Rapist.. by Waking The Cadaver..

[WilliamWeird1313]

The piece of score that plays over the scene in which Frank Zito comes home from a long day of murdering and handcuffs a mannequin to him while he goes to sleep in Maniac, ...that always genuinely creeps me out. Just the music alone.

Here's a couple I thought I would add:

Surely not to everyones taste.

I like both Venetian Snares, and Lustmord. Aaron Funk is a genius of programming, but the album I like of his the best is the Hungarian influenced Rossz csillag alatt született which departs from his abnormal stuff. In the same vein is Miami musician Otto Von Schirach who mixes up a lot of weird sounds, miami bass/glitch/metal plus disturbing porn dialogue. His albums are a little more difficult to make it through.

Possibly NSFW:

I believe Aaron Funk and Otto fall under the Breakcore heading, some of it's pretty interesting. When it comes to Venetian Snares I find he can be very hit and miss, he releases way too much material 25% of which is absolute genius. If you liked 'Rossz csillag alatt született' you should check out 'My Downfall' if you haven't already, same kinda mix of classical scoring and messed up junglist break beats.
Breakcore it's self is a pretty varied genre, again some of it's genius but a lot of it is really just horrible messed up noise. Couple of artists to check out in the Breakcore scene:

Bong-Ra
s**tmat
DJ Scotch Egg
Aaron Spectre
Hecate (crazy lady, has done some work with Lustmord in the past I believe, interesting mix of Hardcore Techno, Jungle and Black Metal)

Sorry for derailing a thread so soon after signing up to the site lol

Back to the original subject a lot of 'Drone' can be pretty disturbing, especially the darker side, maybe check out a band called 'Sunn O)))'
