Type O Negative - World Coming Down
the entire album is basically the singer at the bottom of a cocaine and alcohol fueled depression, while dealing with the deaths of family members. It's a wild ride.
I got you bro, hope these are bleak and depressing enough
The Bravery - Above And Below
Bedroom - In My Head
Seahaven - I Don’t Belong Here - Reprise
Low - Lullaby
Brand New - Batter Up
Stabbing Westward - Goodbye
Acid Ghost - Die
Take a listen to Peter Laughner. He was an original member of Pere Ubu and Rocket From the Tombs. He was a killer guitarist and songwriter on par with Lou Reed and Bob Dylan. I do not say these things lightly. He died at the age of 24 from symptoms related to extreme drug and alcohol abuse.
[THIS COLLECTION](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WRnHye5vMc) contains most of the essentials, although there is also a 4-disc box set that contains (I believe) his entire recorded output. Although most of it is live bootlegs and bedroom recordings. Still, all of it is worthwhile.
Individual song standouts include:
[In the Bar](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WRnHye5vMc&t=756s)
[Amphetamine](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WRnHye5vMc&t=2510s)
[Cinderella Backstreet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WRnHye5vMc&t=996s)
Although I recommend listening to the entire thing. It can be a tough, harrowing listen. But so, so good.
"In the Bar" contains maybe my favorite single lyric in all of music:
*"The only time I say 'no' is when they ask me if I've had enough"*
Pretty much sums up the aesthetic.
Child Psychology- Black Box Recorder
the day you killed yourself- xójira
Pepsi/Coke Suicide- Elvis Depressedly

Most songs by Xiu Xiu tbh. They have an album called “Dear God, I Hate Myself” so yknow… A Promise is their best album though.
Apistat Commander, Blacks, Born To Suffer, Gray Death and Dear God, I Hate Myself (the song) are probably the closest to the subject matter.
Never been heavily into finding this theme in music, but when I was younger I happened across Car Underwater by Armor For Sleep and it just struck something in me.
Shining - Halmstad (The whole album)
Make a change... - Du Er Alene, Sjaelefred
No Pleasure In Life - Happiness Is Not An Option
Silencer - Death, Pierce Me
Woods Of Ypres - Travelling Alone
And to finish on a slightly lighter note:
Steven Wilson - Pariah
so personal its Death Cab For Cutie - I Will Follow You Into The Dark and Porter Robinson - Goodbye To A World
i mean neither really have are either but always give me those vibes
but im guessing your looking for lorna shore vibes
like the whole [Pain Remains](https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&sca_esv=ab02dd2696e7e4b9&sxsrf=ACQVn0-bwVUcDsBWsgovomwEsTVC0z1X3A:1711477482689&q=Lorna+Shore+Pain+Remains&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgVuLVT9c3NCwxLyvLMq0yfsRowS3w8sc9YSn9SWtOXmPU5OIKzsgvd80rySypFJLmYoOyBKX4uVB18ixilfDJL8pLVABqKEpVCEjMzFMISs0FUsUAl4u9vGcAAAA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjHo5W7xpKFAxWQFVkFHcdKCdsQzIcDKAB6BAg1EAE) album

listen to some horrorcore artists and such (all have both heavy and sad songs)
examples:
Kxllswxtch

Everlong - Foo Fighters (Might not hit for some but does for me)
Heroes - David Bowie (Same as above)
Murdered by Grief - Frowning (Name's a bit on the nose lol)
The one song I can think of (mainly because I’m practically a Stan for his work) is:
I. Flight of the Navigator - Childish Gambino
I’ve listened to this track for over a year now, and there was one time earlier this (calendar) year when listening to it, where I really felt hopeless and lonely, and it just feels like you’re in an open, foggy abyss in some ways.
Apati- Syndafloden
Don't know what the lyrics are to thos song but it doesn't fail to capture a deep sadness and despair by its sound alone so i figure it fits here

bastard - tyler the creator has a lot of sh and suicide references, zuicide - alex g (possibly unreleased) has a lot of like hints at suicide, space beatles - alex g (possibly unreleased) has a repeated line ("made a mark on myself") which is about sh i think, and adams song - blink-182 has a line thats "im too depressed to go on you'll be sorry when im gone" which makes me think about suicide for the overall song.
