  • Welcome back to part 2 of the DISTURBING ALBUMS ICEBERG!
    Welcome back to your daily dose of more DISTURBING MUSIC! Today, we pick up right where we left off last time and dive into the last three tiers of our disturbing albums iceberg.
    Make our way down with us as we conclude our journey in the deepest levels of our new iceberg.

    TIME STAMPS:
    00:00 - INTRO
    00:24 - LEVEL FOUR - BENT AND BOOTLEGGED
    13:55 - LEVEL FIVE - DEGENERATE DEMOS
    29:04 - LEVEL SIX - THIS FILE IS CORRUPTED
    ----------------------
    🎧 LISTEN TO THE ICEBERG: We have a lovely and immersive SPOTIFY playlist available with some personal favorites out of all these albums. If an album wasn’t available, I included a different track from the artist in question. Unless we’re at the last two entries because, no, we’re not doing that. Link is here: open.spotify.com/playlist/4F7...

    🏔️ ICEBERG INSPIRATIONS
    This iceberg includes a fair number of personal picks, but it was inspired by some great posts. Especially this one / dark_music_iceberg and this one / disturbingdepressing_a... .
    --------------------
    NOTES
    Gulaghh/Stalaggh and Hanatarash have been discussed at length in our previous videos, so we have opted to skip their albums for this round.
    There are obviously thousands of black/death/gore metal albums which we could not fit in this list. We have opted to include some of the most noteworthy and seminal albums (limited to one album per artist) of each genre… we could make a new iceberg entirely based on darker music genres alone (though we’d like to leave this endeavor to real experts) , but this is meant to be introductory and broader in scope.
    Jazz is underrepresented in this particular iceberg and we hope to dedicate a full video on some of the most peculiar releases in this genre in the future. Please suggest some picks to educate use below!

    I still remember my first time listening to Buyer’s Market. It really made me reconsider the line I drew between artistic expression and just straight up exploitation. It’s easily one of the worst albums I’ve ever heard. It’s easy to see why it’s always at the bottom of these music icebergs.
    A lot of stuff on here is fantastic though (Jane Doe, Caligula, etc) and there was actually quite a lot here I haven’t heard of before. Great video as always.

      When I read Jim and Debbie Goad's "ANSWER Me!" zine, literally the only piece I could not finish reading in that entire series was a harrowing screed in the Rape Issue written by Peter Sotos, wherein an encounter is detailed from the perspective of a sinister, mentally-deranged man who abducts, tortures, and verbally eviscerates a prepubescent girl. It caused a vile, repulsive feeling in the pit of my guts to slowly brew; he made me feel like such a lightweight in a way I've really never known.

      ​@@lightingpikachu9 No link, unfortunately ("unfortunately" used very loosely here I think), only the physical copy of the zine here on the desk in front of me, as a matter of fact. For your reference, the name of the short story is called "Quality Time" and features illustrations by Trevor Brown; the illustrations admittedly make the whole experience 100x worse (depictions of a young girl, bound and slowly being dismembered as the story progresses). Also included are photos of children, chiefly among them a child with a physical deformity that has apparently left him or her without eye sockets. You might be able to Google it, possibly? I don't know.
      I mean even now re-skimming through this, it's a total of 11 pages long. It's no wonder I bailed out 1/4th of the way through.

    Was expecting Emit - The Dark Bleeding to be at level 5 or 6. That ep is really something special, like. how do you make an ep to sound like the suffering of hell itself. There is also an album version called Emit - The Dark Bleeding gods.
    The creator was pretty much insane and had a bunch of thoughs that would consider him an insane person. I think the purpose of the album was to describe space, his vision of space is horrifying. Also the creator is also an extremist (politically) and is also in some type of crazy cult of what i've heard, but I don't know if thats true or atleast to this day true.

    Paysage d’Hiver is one of my all-time favorite black metal artists. His music makes me sleepy, to be honest, it’s almost like white noise. I like listening to it when I lay down and head to bed. I can see why it might be off-putting to the average listener, though.
    Same thing with Darkthrone’s Transilvanian Hunger. It’s cold and desolate, but incredibly comforting at the same time. Listening to it with your eyes closed in a dark, cold room is the best way to experience it. It’s an otherworldly experience, I recommend trying it.
