Let's see, some that immediately come to mind...

 

Nine Inch Nails - Big Man With A Gun (about... well read the lyrics)

David Bowie - Repetition (about Wife Beating)

The Smiths - This Night Has Opened My Eyes (about killing babies)

 

I'm sure I've heard plenty of other bad ones, but these jumped at me first.

Those are three very good ones. Especially Big Man With a Gun.

Very disturbing.

That's a pretty stupid and ignorant post. Just saying.

There are tons of rap songs with great lyrics.

Possibly there is.

 

But if you look at the most well known rap music/ mainstream and such, most of it is about objectifying women, sex, guns, drugs etc.

 

And if it does not directly say those things, they do indirectly say it.

ALot of these are really good entries yes.gif A couple others that come to mind are:

 

One Of My Turns from The Wall (pretty much ANY song from The Wall)

 

Revolution 9 by The Beatles has a bit of a...weird vibe to it

 

Hurt by NIN

Nick Cave has written some very disturbing lyrics, especially on his first albums.... Songs like 'Your Funeral...My Trial" and "Red Right Hand" have very dark lyrics, and he sings them with such a sinister voice.

"Careful With That Axe, Eugene" by Pink Floyd used to freak me out when I was younger. Roger's scream on that song is inhuman.

 

Also, "Several Species of Small Fury Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict" is disturbing in a "what the f**k was he smoking?" kinda way. cool10.gif

Porcupine Tree

many possibilities here but I'll go with Fear of A Blank Planet.

Oh yeah. "Space Transmission" is possibly the scariest thing I've ever heard.

Eminem - Kim

 

yet another song about murder. Makes most of the previous examples seem like something you'd play at a birthday party.

 

and the prequel to that one

 

Eminem - Bonnie and Clyde '97

cannibal corpse songs never bothered me, Due to the fact that usually they are singing about the UNDEAD doing heinous acts towards the living - cool.

 

uhhhh, for some reason the police Synchronicity II bothers me somewhat - the tone, lyrics - mood. Really dark & disturbing.

 

 

corpse is just friendly violent fun cool.gif

A lot of Sonic Youth's early-to-mid 80s material is pretty scary & tripped out.

Take a listen to Confusion is Sex and Bad Moon Rising.

Those albums are excellent, but extremely dark, & even kind of aggressive in some ways.
