Skinny Puppy is and always be an incredible industrial band before NIИ, which I really love them. Their 1992 album "Last Rights" is hollow dark album, considering that not also Nivek Ogre have been struggling with drug addiction during the album's production (hell, even he had seizure while recording backing vocals for "Knowhere?"), but the album itself is lyrically depressing (check the lyrics for "Killing Time" or "Mirror Saw") and musically beautifully haunting yet experimentally crushing.
In other words, amazing video, Madison.
Yes!! I was so glad to hear that not only Skinny Puppy was mentioned, but also Nurse with Wound!! Industral has always been a great place to look for disturbing music. I think anyone interested should look into Skinny Puppy's live performances, there's a bit of deviation with the studio versions when performed lived. Not only that, there's amazing sfx on stage when watching a skinny puppy concert film. "Ain't It Dead Yet?" has been one of my favorites for a long time to watch. I can't imagine how insane it is to see!
@@mruiz0599Ain't It Dead Yet? Is one of the best recorded live performances hands down.
they actually kept ogre in a cage during the day while they recorded the music and only let him out at night to record the vocals
how tf do you only have 25k subscribers?!?!? Your videos are soooo good and interesting. Keep up the good work
Bless you :)
Skinny puppy is awesome, though I am a sucker for anything industrial. Also motion city soundtrack is a great band that makes super happy sounding songs over really depressing topics. Kinda like pumped up kicks if it were a band lol
Skinny Puppy is my favorite of the 80s era industrial bands. And yea MCS is a good band to through in that box.
I love Skinny Puppy so much and to find out it was used for torture is hilarious. I sent my friend SP songs and they were like "No wonder you're crazy" LMFAO
My favorite strange/ creepy musician is probably kikuo
Kikuo is the GOAT
Jandek's first album "Ready for the House" definitely has an uncanny/liminal space feel to it.
Finally some actually disturbing music good job once again gray
Bless
I see nattramn in the thumbnail, I click it’s that simple. I actually find silencers music extremely soothing
i like that you made a distinction between "disturbing" and "unnerving", and how the former often pertains to the "artist", while the latter would refer to the "art." it always felt like people mean to look for "unnerving art", but end up with the same "disturbing artists" that most of the videos that cover them end up doing.
I've never read machinegirl's lyrics, but now that I've learned that their whole message revolves around believing that the law enforcement is the great satan of the world, it almost makes the whole project comedic lol.
I’ve been having an interest in unnerving and unique music. It brings a certain character to the art form. The storytelling, the atmosphere, the thought, the creativity, etc.
ever hear "lustmord"? he makes some stuff thats carefully crafted and it will take you on a journey.
Check out Stallagh/Gulaggh and Deathpile's G.R. some of the harshest stuff Ive heard in the power electronics/noise world
Sadness Will Prevail by Today is the Day is pretty unnerving at times. It's kinda like an 'Extreme' metal version of Soundtracks for the Blind.
Such an amazing album. I still find myself going back to it after all these years.
There's very few music in metal that could top tracks like Death Requiem and the first half of the title track
Less than two hours after discovering this channel, I am unironically listening to Nurse With Wound. As meditation music. Successfully, I might add.
Well done, sir.
Glad I could help. ;)
Gonna put these tunes on my Benadryl playlist.
the hat man commeth
I've got to see Skinny Puppy already once this year and Im seeing them in Chicago again this next Tuesday! I urge everyone who likes electronic music to give them a listen! One of my favourite bands for sure
If I can throw in one: The King in Yellow by Psyclopean. A dark ambient album during the band's lovecraft/cosmic horror phase. And while those albums invoke great atmosphere, The King in Yellow is one of the few albums I've heard that makes me panic. Thanks to the dense atmosphere and haunting voices throughout which just make you feel like you're losing your mind.
Nothing like overdosing to everywhere at the end of time
Everywhere at the end of the needle
True.
My Dissociation Vibing playlist is gonna grow
SKINNY PUPPY was so ahead of their time. 1980's and early 1990's SP was the best. AIN'T IT DEAD YET? Is one of the best live performances put to tape.
I was thrilled and also surprised for them to be mentioned because they seem to always be forgotten!! I was fortunate enough to get to see the Too Dark Park show in 1990 and there is truly no words to describe what the show was like!!
@@josephmcconnell5869 So true. I wish they would release a live film of the TOO DARK PARK too like AIN'T IT DEAD YET. That would be amazing the LAST RIGHTS tour as well.
@NITE_SHIFTING there's really only one good live Too Dark Park video on CZcams and it's way to short.I recently found out that it was recorded at Bogarts in Cincinnati 1990 which means I'm somewhere out in the crowd and GAWD what I would do to see the rest of the video because it would blow my mind!!
I loved many of these bands for a reason ! I'm so glad you're talking about them!!
Dude this video is great, glad I stumbled on it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tool prison sex really fucked up lyrics but still one of my favorite songs because musically its so damn good definitely a guilty pleasure that makes me feel unnerved every time I listen to it
Great list, I'm gonna leave some of my picks if anybody is interested:
Subtly unnerving/context:
- Purple Mountains - Purple Mountains: Alt-country/Singer-songwriter music, pleasant yet melancholic to listen, but the singer killed himself shortly after the release, revealing that the lyrics are basically a suicide note.
- Charles Manson - Lie: Surprisingly well-written and nice folk music by nobody else than Charles Manson.
- Blood on the Dance floor - You done goofed: Extremely shitty electronic music, but it turned out that the lead singer of the band has likely sexually assaulted minors. This song is a diss track towards one of the girls who accused him.
- Nicole Dollanganger - Natural born loosers: Almost too sweet sounding, melancholic dream pop, but with lyrics that make a lot of Death Metal bands pale.
Surreal horror:
- Current 93 - I have a special plan for this world: Very demented spoken word mixed with strange dark ambient.
- Lil Ugly mane - Volcanic bird enemy and the voiced concern: Horror is probably a bit of a stretch, but it definitely is a surreal experience, and a hella depressing one on top, which I often find more disturbing then any shock tactics.
- Coin locker kid: Hailstorm & Maelstorm: Very difficult to categorize, mostly labelled experimental hip hop/psychedelia/plunderphonics. Almost nothing to grasp musically, plus some of the most uncomfortable lyrics on the song "Boy Toy".
- Caroliner - I am armed with quarts of blood: Fucked up experimental folk with a very Residents-like image. Anonymous group which claims to be from the 18th century and bringing to us the songs of a singing bulls head called Caroliner.
Full-on disturbing/horror:
- Gnaw their tongues: All the dread magnificence of perversity: Black metal/noise fusion, sounds like somebody recorded hell itself.
- Utarm - Apocryphal Stories: Less known and in my opinion even scarier version of Gnaw their tongues
- The Gerogerigegege - Saturdaynight big c*ck salaryman: Basically someone having a mental breakdown over very harsh guitar drones for 12 minutes.
- Xiu Xiu - A promise: Almost every Xiu Xiu record could be put here, but I think this is the most crushing. An experimental, abrasive journey through the darkest depths of a deranged mind and a deranged world.
- Breathing Problem - Mattress on the floor: Very harsh power electronics, plus some rather unpleasant samples.
- Navicon torture technologies - Vtervs: Power electronics on it's own is rather unnerving, but if you take away the involuntarily comedic element and replace it with crushing depression, you have this beast of an album.
- John Frusciante - Smile from the streets you hold: A collection of tracks mostly recorded when John Frusciante, known as the guitarist in Red hot chilli peppers, was about as low down as a human can get. Addicted to almost every drug imaginable and dealing with the loss of his best friend, he recorded parts of this album. It's almost a miracle he survived this time, and that's clearly audible on the album. The vocals sound like somebody slowly dying of drug abuse.
- Runzelstirn & Gurgelstøck - A*shole/Snail dilemma: How?... What the hell even is this? I don't know, but it's horrifying. Imagine Steven Stapleton being, instead of the kind of likeable artsy wierdo, a full blown psychopath who's interests are not only in very strange art, but even more in doing harm to others and himself and any kind of sexual torture. Then he might release an album like this.
Mind: The Perpetual intercourse is one of my favorite SP albums of all time. It's simultaneously wide and spectral in its production yet boxed in and claustrophobic when it comes to arrangement.
Its definitely my favorite from them.
Last Rights is my favorite. I named my channel after one of its tracks
Glad to be here before this channel blows up. Its bound to happen. Love the content!
You’re intro about modern horror youtube content is so accurate imo. there used to be more of a focus on art and scary stories, now its literally just suicide cults and r*pe.
Its the constant need to bring it to the next level. People have been so desensitized to horror and shock that at this point if you wanna be the big fish in that pond you have to bring the worst thing you can to the table. Its the nature of any form of content honestly but eh. After a while people get sick of it and the cycle resets itself.
Totally thought you were gonna go the "WLFGRL is SO INTENSE SCAWEY" route with Machine Girl
Should've never doubted you. Consistently good taste.
I love WLFGRL but its nothing compared to any of the vocal albums
@@graymads FR !! This is the take.
Vocals add so much to the style and the substance of their message and its super essential to the harshness of the live shows.
Pre-BECAUSE IM YOUNG... is great but that album really put them on people's radar for a reason.
Incredible video, as always. This feels like a film. Hope you get more recognition and keep the hard work. They way you edit, talk and the material you bring its just perfect. Hope to see another vid of DEG soon, Im finally able to see them live
I saw WLFGRL in the thumbnail and i had to click on it, their songs are so brutal and i'm surprised you didnt talk about their song Uzumaki and Devil speak. Video was amazing please keep going on man 💜💜💜
I've loved Flood Dream ever since I stumbled upon it around its release, it always sounded so incredibly sad and melancholic. "Between two worlds" by Infinity Frequencies hits pretty much the same way, but instead of violin & harp chamber folk it's vaporwave and invoked liminal spaces.
Hell yes The Residents
Under the skin has the most haunting and unnerving soundtrack ever created. Even in daylight it could throw you into a state of panic or dread.
Great video. This was (Mostly) what i was hoping for... Here are some of my personal fave examples when it comes to disassociating (usually with some psychedelic assistance.. My playlist for this is called "ego death" 💀)... Most of it is electronic
Filmmaker - the vlad tapes
Unholy - ego sum deus
White ring - leprosy
Zamilska - fragile
Swarm - nightmare
IC3PEAK -can't type Russian, but their early stuff
And then others like navicon torture technologies, Panama papers...
Ok I'll stop... But ya... Great video. You gave me some awesome new stuff to check out. Loving the content so far
I love these. Keep being badass, Madison.
One of the best content creators in these topics.
That’s why I won’t stop suggesting to do something about the topic of censorship in the eastern block and the music that was created in these regimes.
It’s pretty fascinating, whether it’s the soviet’s attempt to infiltrate the scene and use it against itself, yugoslav more lax attitude wchich spawned some cool gray area artists or Czechoslovakia straight up trying to destroy any western influences and the opposing movement that resisted this.
One of the most unnerving songs I’ve ever listened to was Dear God (X Marks The Pedwalk Remix) by Evil’s Toy. It’s just eerie synth and tormented souls wailing in the far distance.
Edit: It’s REALLY hard to find this specific version so here it is
czcams.com/video/xok7aPXeQXw/video.htmlsi=6X_FTAUpLlvFdYTz
Feels like "You Guys Kill Me" by Third Eye Foundation should be on one of these lists. Maybe even "Anhedonia"
I don't get why your not blowing up, keep it up man, love your videos
Bless you!
I wouldn't necessarily call the music of God in Three Persons cheesy, it was incredibly innovative for its time using MIDI tech all the way back in 1988 and they were also left in a strange spot when their guitarist Snakefinger died before he could record any of his parts. It definitely shows its age, but contextually The Residents have been at the forefront of music tech throughout their 50-year career.
God in Three Persons is touring the UK early 2024 and well worth checking out. I hope it's the same show as the 2022 dates (it was considered too expensive to tour in the US), it's incredible.
Philosopy of the world actually has some prettt sad and sometimes disturben lyrics so it is possible the girls who had no idea how to play there instruments deliberately made it unnerving
Notification gang represent 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Salem's "King Night" might fit, or witch house in general to some degree.
i don't like mondays by the boomtown rats is another great example of a "mildly unnerving" song, especially considering it's about an actual school shooter. my parents (who speak english as a second language) loved that song when they were kids, and they were shocked when i explained the lyrics...
I remember i saw review which described wlfgrl as the most brutal sounding record ever and yeah i agree it is pusing the limits of brutal agression to the limits even outdoing breakcore and flashcore legend venitian snares
Ever since Chad Bennington (I think) made a video on machine girl, I have loved them. This video gave me more music to enjoy 🖤
Love the gameplay segment for .flow at 33:46. Its nice to see since .flow is criminally undercovered when it comes to youtube.
Also really happy for your segment talking about Skinny Puppy 💀
Having this video right after the silent hill video is a real treat. Can't wait for mads to be at a million subs
You and me both
I saw this video pop up on my for you page while waiting in line to see Skinny Puppy coincidentally. Exited to watch this after the show Madison
Hope you enjoy it!
Lol props for showing early suicide silence
This is better than standing still at a Radiohead concert!
dude i fucking love skinny puppy. god's gift maggot is an amazing song
respect
@@graymads you should have included G.G.F.H. 😺
One I think you missed was Maenad Vayl’s Body Count. It sounds like a disturbing abandoned factory that’s still somehow working, after being bombed out and rusted. To quote a friend of mine, “It’s like the crude painful mechanical existence of humanity after the apocalypse kills most of us.
I actually love that record, and I am saving that for another video. ;)
The amount if time and effort put into these videos is too good
needed this!!! sucked orange and everywhere at the end of the time made me want to learn more about this
Babe wake up, Madison Grey dropped another great video. 😳
Love this video!
Fantastic dive. I was surprised by The Shizit nod. Excellent coverage on Skinny Puppy, Nurse With Wound, and especially The Residents! God in 3 Persons is a twisted opera in the form of carnival barker music. If I could recommend the most unnerving album that I both fear and respect due to the message conveyed: Vena Cava by Diamanda Galas.
I have been dying to mention them for a while lol. Long live the Shizit
@graymads I Spit AK is still the jam. Also a giant fan of Rabbit Junk.
Omg and God in Three Persons
I haven't seen the video yet but the thumbnail makes me eager
For me, Alice in Chains' self-titled fits this mold. Gorgeous yet unsettling music, soul-crushingly relatable lyrics, the kind of vibe that makes you want to shower in the middle of the night and forget you exist
i will shamelessly self promote my music saying , its quite a fitting genra to this video .
I'm so intrigued. I wait with baited breath for more.
Since I discovered so much rad music from the comments ill contribute one my self. Tanya Tagaq. In particular the song The Summoning. When i was a hardcore goth in highschool thaf is what i wanted my witchy music to sound like lol
Amazing video. I’d be down for a sequel to it. I’d recommend some of Ulver’s more experimental work. If you’ve seen the horror movie “Sinister”, you’ll recognize their music from being featured in the “BBQ” and “Pool Party” scenes
You and me both
Maxwell's silver hammer by the Beatles.
any song off Havohej's EP Black Perversion.
And for the obvious picks
Necropedophile by Cannibal Corpse and Baby killer by Devourment.
When it’s Saturday and you get to cook breakfast to a new graymads upload
You are eating good today
This was a great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The Cure has never been NEARLY as cheerful as they sound, and some of their albums sound ANYTHING but cheery
Your mention of Johnny Cash reminded me of a very old country song that I find very disturbing: "Ruby, Don't Take Your Love To Town" by Mel Tillis, especially the part where it says: "if I could move I'd get my gun
And put her in the ground"
GOING POSTAL??? ONLY MY WEAPON UNDERSTANDS ME!!! I REGRET NOTHING!!!! SIGN MY PETITION!!!
“This cant be good for me but I feel great”
Keep it up Mads☝️🔥
You should give Haus Arafna a listen. Literally self-described "angst-pop"
this video is great
I think a couple other tracks that could fit into subtly disturbing might be Go Outside by Cults or 39 By Design by Drab Majesty. Both were about Jonestown and Heaven's Gate. Other than that, I tend to like movie and video game soundtracks, particularly Goblin's score for Dario Argento's Suspiria and the Silent Hill franchise. Those are just some recommendations I can think of at the top of my head aside from the many songs that have strange context surrounding them like Gloomy Sunday
5 minutes in and I'm ready to make some predictions. In this video we'll hear reference to; Skinny Puppy, Pig Destroyer, Tim Fite (maybe. Listen to Tim Fite's song 'the barber'), The Caretaker - Everywhere At The End Of Time, PORTAL Ω CURTAIN, Gnaw Their Tongues, Diamanda Galas and... fuq, I'm drawing a blank. Anyway, looking forward to this. Really hope to hear something not on my radar.
Machine girl such a vibe
Machine Girl will always be top tier.
Semi Charmed life is a pop song about meth addiction
28:05, and that is the origin of Jeff The Killer folks
Not enough people know about The Shaggs. Bless you for spreading the word 👏
3:10 That's why I stopped watching windagoon a long time ago, he wants to jump on the "disturbing and dark" bandwagon while censoring every little detail with childish substitute words and always going for the lowest hanging fruit.
Check out the album "modern failures" and the single "Self medicating" by "All your sisters." Its music made by a guy to cope with the suffering he witnessed as a paramedic on graveyard shifts.
Some others:
The EP Untrue by nightspace
Ptolemaea by Ethel Cain
I'll have to check this out, sounds interesting
As a side-note: I definitely recommend Puppy Gristle. As far as concept albums go: Tweedles! by The Residents made my skin crawl. Think toxic masculinity as a clown.
Have you had the chance to see Machine Girl live?
Their shows are absolutely insane
You not even mentioning Aghast feels like a crime and the music police should at least fine you or look into such... Audio-transgression. Jokes aside keep up the good stuff.
Quality disturbing music
One of your best episodes ever, Greymads . I've been a fan of under, underground music since college and am familiar with some of the stuff and artists you spotlighted. You mentioned the Caretaker, Time Regression into Isolation, which I listened to over a three day period and the damn thing broke my heart. Truly a masterwork. I discovered 2 artist's albums recently that I can highly recommend. Caligula by Lingua Ignota and Dead Magic by Anna von Hausswolff, great stuff. Again, just a great episode, thanks.
Really glad you enjoy the content, and I'll definitely check out the artists you listed. I am always on the hunt for new stuff!
Yeah, The Residents - the OG kings of Creepy DaDa.
@@graymads You’ll dig both ladies…
the caretaker album is already Redditcore, that ironically makes it more unnerving
For the longest time, I thought he was saying Rebel, not Robert....
Groovey
A Sucked Orange?? I'm going to love this
Rockette Morton
@@graymads Rockette Morton
very cool :)
bless
Boards of Canada geogsddi is another good album
I'm a metalhead and listen to a lot of death metal. Music in itself I have never found anything disturbing really, however lyrics based from a true story or lyrics that hides the subject matter in a subliminal way. Songs like Me and a Gun from Tori Amos, Polly by Nirvana, Every Breath You Take The Police, Jeremy, Pearl Jam, you get the idea.
We need to bring back 3spooky5me
so scary
Hearts & Crosses by Heavenly comes to mind. A cute, cheerful 80s indie pop song with an infectious organ hook, featuring lyrics about a violent sexual assault. It's absolutely heartbreaking.
This is your face on dogs
TFW I dissociated

Dissociated so much I had to poop

Missed out by not covering Current 93.
