Recommend me something slow soothing and calming. If its depressing, all the better.
Jeremy - Pearl Jam
I recommend Sigur Ros...they sing in Icelandic so you won't be able to understand anything but that's ok.
Rufus Wainwright is an amazing songsmith...imagine hearing a song with about 10 tempo or time changes...in about a minute. Most of his stuff is pretty mellow.
The Screaming Trees are (were) a pretty good acoustic rock band and they're pretty mellow...try looking for their great cover of John Lennon's "Working Class Hero".
Of course, Radiohead.
The song "Smoke and Blow" by Mr. Pookie will put you to sleep...but in the good way.
Dredg is an amazing modern rock band with some pretty good slow songs...listen to "Same Ol' Road", "Of The Room", "Triangle", "Whoa Is Me", but that'll just get you started!
this land is our land
Thanks, btw Crazypete that's a great song but I already have it.
Type O Negative, Type O Negative and more Type O Negative. Their a must if you like slow, depressing music.
Oh yeah, and The Cure.
check out a Scottish band called "Mogwai."

"...I was drivin' across the valley floor/ Goin' past a scene of gore/ Something that had ended here/ Then I stopped in at a porno store/ And I saw among the pictures there/ A vision that was...very fair.../ Just a moment from yesteryear/ ...All I could do was stare..." ------ Frank Black

Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing
Can't really think of too many more... slow & depressing really isn't my style. I think Burning Spear might have some stuff for ya, but canikickit would be better with that.
"to become a philosopher, start by walking very slowly"

anyway, this is a song trying to be slow...maybe it will make you laugh.

i, too, love slow depressing music. must be leftover from when i lived in seattle...
mogwai and sigur ros are great. also, i recommend interpol, flaming lips, american analogue set, fisherspooner.
mogwai will kill him but it worth listening to....
i recommend explosions in the sky, it's instrumental and emotional.
the new beck.
and anything by joy division.
....I break the surface so I can breathe/ I close my eyes so i can see/ I tie my arms to be free/ Have you ever been free? Shut the door so I can leave....f u g a z i
For relatively slow & depressing, I'd recommend White Pony (Deftones), or Dummy (Portishead). But promise me you won't try to shoot yourself afterwards.
The prolonged barrage engulfed Zero-One in the glow of a thousand suns. But unlike their former masters with their delicate flesh, the machines had little to fear of the bombs' radiation and heat. Thus did Zero-One's troops advance outwards in every direction. And one after another, mankind surrendered its territories. So the leaders of men conceived of their most desperate strategy yet. A final solution: the destruction of the sky.

I recommend Karl Jenkins and Coldplay

Lots of Matthew GoodBand shit is depressing!
Coldplay - A Rush of Blood to Head is an indescribably beautiful album. I love it to bits.
Radiohead - OK Computer is my favourite album of all time. It's even more beautiful than Coldplay lol. I've listened to it upwards of a thousand times in the 5 1/2 yrs I've had it and I'm still discovering new parts to it and new ways of enjoying it.
Tool - Aenima...you can get lost in this album like no other. It is so emotionally touching that you'll find yourself crying and screaming along with it (well I did anyway lol).
DJ Shadow - Endtroducing is also an essential album for chilling to. Shadow has an untouchable way of combining hip hop, acid jazz and dance to sound incredible.
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here is a fuckin incredible album for the summer and when under the influence. It's so distant and tripped, yet so close.
The Cure - Bloodflowers...another beautiful album. Ideal for when you're having girl trouble (I'd know lol). Something about Robert Smith's voice is so touching.
Deftones - White Pony is the first, and only chilled metal album, as far as I'm aware. Even the "metal" tracks off it have a hynoptic beauty to them. And Knife Party and Passenger (with Tool's Maynard) will send shivers down your spine.
From Autumn to Ashes - Too Bad You're Beautiful...OK this isn't so much slow and soothing, but it is just about the most depressing music in the world. I never knew hardcore could be so emotional.

Hammerfall - Glory To The Brave... Get the video clip, it's starts of in a graveyard with the singer laying a flower on a grave. Is that despressing enough for you?
"i don't think i've ever been quoted in a sig before. and i wasn't exactly in my best element there though some could argue against that. but all the same i'm there. so, cool. " -Diana
Guns and Roses - November Rain
Wow. Gives me memories, and even tears. Great song.
Matt Good strikes a cord in my depressed body.
Smashing Pumpkins. Any of their stuff is good and depressing, especially their album "Siamese Dream."
I most definately concur with the deftones, sigur ros and radiohead. Oh, yeah radiohead. Also, I like trance music for that mellow, depressed mood. I reccommend Paul Oakenfold.
Direct action is key- don't just sit at your computer and rant at leftists you disagree with slightly- get out there and DO IT. Organize. Change your life, and change the lives of those around you. The reason the waterheads are still in power is because we aren't being loud enough.
