I overheard a guy tell his friend ‘it’s Beck, but without all the gadgets’ and I thought that was hilarious so I checked it out (as was going through a tough break up years ago), and damn was it perfect
Album or song? Because for me, they both kinda blurred together when I was at my worst. That being said, I’d suggest the album Tomorrow is nearly yesterday and everyday is stupid by Crywank (UK). I listened and related so much to this album at one point that it’s actually difficult for me to listen to anymore.
It’s a song that speaks to your flavour of depression. Makes you feel like someone feels the exact same way you do. That in turn makes you feel sane. Like you’re heard. Even understood.
Over time, songs (or movies or other things) can become a ritual - you feel awful, listen to the song, eventually you come out the other side as the depressive episode fades. Then the next time it happens you associate the song with your recovery. So over time it becomes What You Do when you Feel That Way.
What song would you recommend to someone who has done things she regrets when she had the opportunity to have something good and lives with the still-ongoing snowball effect that she is so used to seeing as karmic that she doesn’t typically bring up any of the issues?
Priest is an electronic music project originally formed by ex-members of the hugely popular band Ghost. I’d call this Darkwave, but the label doesn’t matter, it’s depeche mode-y and don’t let the gimp mask put you off, I believe the song is very sincere.
