I'm not familiar with either, but if it's frightening; I'm down. Will check them out, my martially-inclined Hebrew acquaintance.

Celtic Frost's Monotheist album and the first half of Deleted Scenes by Axis of Perdition are both deeply disturbing

Lou Reed - Metal Machine Music.
Whenever it pops up on shuffle I have to change my pants.
(It's basically an hour of feedback noise and dissonans.)

It's ahead of its time, that's for sure.
Also, he made it just to mess with people.
[QUOTE=From the wiki:]Probably the most sympathetic appraisal of Metal Machine Music was given by rock critic Lester Bangs, who wrote that "as classical music it adds nothing to a genre that may well be depleted. As rock 'n' roll it's interesting garage electronic rock 'n' roll. As a statement it's great, as a giant FUCK YOU it shows integrity—a sick, twisted, dunced-out, malevolent, perverted, psychopathic integrity, but integrity nevertheless." Bangs later wrote a tongue-in-cheek article on Metal Machine Music titled "The Greatest Album Ever Made", in which he judged it "the greatest record ever made in the history of the human eardrum."[/QUOTE]

Definitely Der Räuber Und Der Prins by DAF.
[QUOTE=CptVague;31607063]Recommend me the scariest song you've ever heard. Lyrics, music, it doesn't matter.[/QUOTE]
Not really scary to me. But still some of the few things I still find creepy or haunting. At least of the stuff I can recall names and the like.
Pentemple (the whole album)
Absum - Living Graves
Absum - Restless Specter

Maybe some Swans stuff from Public Castration Is A Good Idea?

Lustmord is pretty spine chilling. The collab with Robert Rich, called "Stalker" is the only one I've heard. (takes it's name from one of the best movies ever too)
I haven't listened to it but Foetus is known for some really terrifying music.
Sunn O)))'s Black One (album) was pretty unsettling the first time through
basically dark ambient
and like mentioned, the early era of Swans
lolol I'm a fagget how could I forget Nico. Desertshore is an amazing album

Thanks for all the suggestions. Keep 'em coming if you have any more. i'll try to come up with a few of my own.
I like Foetus, at least some of it. I will have to revisit.
Really Enjoyed the Nico song. It was a little extra unsettling because the video stopped playing at 1:47. Just stopped; I didn't even have the browser window up.
I added some of the other suggestions to a Grooveshark playlist that I'll listen to tomorrow.
Liking the Sunn O)) stuff a bit. It is definitely creepy.
I would really like it if someone could recommend me some more stoner metal, like Sleep's Dopesmoker.

Basically search last.fm for "dope*"
Does anybody know any 3 - Chord Rock bands like the Kinks? Something that just rocks and is catchy?

I think I just saw a devil-horned Rob Zombie hitting a bong at a KKK rally. That's one bit of album art I never even thought about existing. I will have to see how this shit sounds.

That album made me feel fuzzy after listening to it in full with headphones while on an hour long bus ride.
Gave it a shot. It sounded a bit like a couple of guys played some metal in their living room and called the singer up on a cell phone. The singer was ensconced in a filthy bathroom stall and yelled the lyrics as best he could into the feeble telephone's mic.
Not bad, but I'll have to play it through non garbage speakers later to see if I can appreciate it more.
It's an album that demands loud listening

I cannot recommend Goatsnake and Eternal Elysium enough. Even Eyehategod sometimes.
On the lighter side, you might like Truckfighters. Really amazing, mellow psyched-out fuzz rock there.
Could someone recommend some heavy, groove-driven electronic music in the vein of The Crystal Method, Fluke, etc?
[QUOTE=Hakita;31647935]I would really like it if someone could recommend me some more stoner metal, like Sleep's Dopesmoker.[/QUOTE]
Well the previous Sleep album, Holy Mountain of course. Less epic due to somewhat more average song length but equally kick ass.
Boris is a must. Akuma No Uta is one of the best more rock albums but Heavy Rocks and Pink are also great. Amplifier Worship is 100% doomy sludge goodness. Feedbacker is really psychedelic and only one section is really stonerish but it's worth mentioning because it's my favourite :p
EyeHateGod is awesome as mentioned
also AKz, what was that soul album you posted somewhere? Callier or something? cover had this naked black chick on it

Headphones, man.
Can anyone recommend me some folk-inspired music in the vein of Flogging Molly/Dropkick Murphies please?
It doesn't have to be Irish, but would be cool if it had the same vibe.

Listen to The Pogues.

Does anyone know any calm, relaxing indie rock with a similar vibe to Bon Iver's work? I've tried some chillwave artists (chillwave sucks) and tried going back to artists like this that I used to listen to before like Coldplay and Radiohead that provided this atmosphere and it just wasn't the same. I'm starting to think that Bon Iver's the only indie (or rock for that matter) artist I will ever truly enjoy since I've been getting back into rap and R&B.
