For me, it would have to be some of the funeral doom bands like Evoken, and then oddly enough some less extrwm bands. In particualr, My Dying Bride. Not the most extreme band, but something about some of their music is so beautiful and yet so sad...

The Black Heart Procession and Teenage Jesus & the Jerks make some pretty depressing music.

Insane Clown Posse are also extremely depressing, although for completely different reasons.

No one can listen to Billy Corgan's voice and not break out laughing at some point. (and I like Smashing Pumpkins)

The most depressing bands I've listened to are Radiohead and Heatmiser (Eliot Smith's band, for those who don't know).

Samuel Beam (aka Iron & Wine) isn't a band per se, but some of his work has a really sad sound to it; I don't know if I'd say depressing.

Also, Beck's album Sea Change is mad depressing. "Guess I'm Doing Fine" especially.

Rudimentary Peni - the lyrics are a whole lot more concise and to the point

One and All (lyrics) We are all so full of death We are all so full of lies We are all so empty One and all so empty Only Death (lyrics) There is only death. No God, no love, no joy, There is only death, and the fear of it. No More Pain (lyrics) come gentle death In dead of night And steal away The morning light

consider us dead - sentenced

Feel it, now it's waiting in your hand
Cold and loaded...
See it, now it's shining in my hand
Cold and loaded...
I know i haven't got the balls to pull this through
And therefore I'm laying all my faith in, all my faith in you

Raise the gun, take aim and shoot me
Put a bullet through my head
Consider us dead
Raise the gun, take aim and blow me away
Squeeze the trigger, free the lead
Consider us dead

We're leaving this human ruin behind
So cold and empty...
He's leaving for there's nothing more I can find
In this cold and empty
The choice is mine so don't be afraid to pull this through
Just get a grip, I'm dying to get rid of you, rid of you

Raise the gun, take aim and shoot me
Put a bullet through my head
Consider us dead
Raise the gun, take aim and blow me away
Squeeze the trigger, free the lead
Consider us dead

I know you haven't got the balls to pull this through
Just get a grip, I'm dying to get rid of you rid of you

Raise the gun, take aim and shoot me
Put a bullet through my head
Consider us dead
Raise the gun, take aim and blow me away
Squeeze the trigger, free the lead
Consider us dead
Consider us dead

end of the road - sentenced

Here we are, now lay the burden down
We're coming to the end of our road
Sorrowful yet glorious somehow
To be humming this one last ode

So calm and still... it wasn't all that bad, or was it now?
Fulfilled... it doesn't only hurt to end it now

The funeral

The memories beneath the dust of years
They seem like those of someone deceased
There's no more to be done, or hoped or feared
Just waiting for the final release

So calm and thrilled... it wasn't all that bad, or was it now?
Still, it doesn't only hurt to end it now

Is life over, this life's over?
Or has it only just begun?
It grows colder, starts to moulder...
Coming apart yet still not done

Forever one

Fantastic one. I guess I chose A Hanging because of the haunting background vocals.

Mayhem. The lead singer blew his head off. When his bandmates found him they took pictures of his corpse before notifying the authorities. Then they used one of the pictures as an album cover.

Nortt makes some of the most depressing stuff I've listened to without a doubt. Other than him; Funeral, Silencer, Nyktalgia, Xasthur and to a lesser extent Leviathan all make very depressing music.
