(515) by slipknot is pretty disturbing too. it's only 1 minute long but the whole song consists of sid wilson screaming. the story behind it is that he went to visit his grandfather but by the time he got to his house, his grandfather had already passed away. afterwards he went to the recording studio and just let out all his pain. it's pretty haunting...

[@cauliflowerconnoisseur2710]

honestly, the first 2 Slipknot albums have disturbing moments.

[@nolablack222]

as an side note about Daddy by Korn, Jonathan has mentioned when they started playing the song live for the albums 20th anniversary that the person that had S.A.'ed him was his babysitter and that the only reason he felt comfortable enough to play the song live was because said babysitter died of cancer with Jonathan saying "Karam's a bitch." The song was only played live to celebrate the albums anniversary and Jonathan said he will never play the song live again because he still has those emotional struggles with it.

[@Treppy_Gecky]

I can relate. As someone with SA trauma in their childhood a weight really is removed from your shoulders when an abuser finally dies. When mine died of cancer I felt free and it helped me start to move on from my trauma.

[@mistuhwhite69]

The story behind Daddy is tragic to me. I cannot imagine ever denying or not believing my child in a situation like that. Another rough song from Korn is Pretty, which centres around a similar subject, based on a real experience Davis had while working in a morgue.

[@ThisIsACreativeName]

Exactly. What child, what literal child would lie about something like that?

[@imyychloe]

@@ThisIsACreativeName not just that, but how would a child know about anything surrounding sexual assault/just sexual themes in general, if something like that wasn't happening? that was actually how i managed to get help on my situation. just a child knowing about sex and all that stuff is already a red flag

[@SOBEKCrocodileGod]

@@ThisIsACreativeName one thing to keep in mind is that Jonathan’s stepmother outright hated him and would physically and verbally abuse him. So I imagine she wouldn’t care even if she believed it. With his dad I think it was a “I can’t believe this is happening to my own kid there’s no way” type of denial, but it’s still really awful of him to just ignore it like that

[@DustinRodriguez1_0]

People do not want to face child abuse. Just look at how society deals with it. We have hard statistics and science proving that we know parents, family, family friends, adult authority figures, and adults the child knows and trusts are almost always responsible for child abuse. And what do we focus on? Strangers. Who save children from abuse far, far, far more often than they commit it. We know things we could do to prevent and stop child abuse - education and empowerment of children. And society hates and forbids both of those things. They would rather fantasize about delusions of strangers hunting kids and keep victims of child abuse ignorant and powerless and trapped in abusive situations just so they don't have to face it. And then the things people say, which child abuse victims hear, do nothing to offer those victims hope. Next time you hear someone say 'that abuser destroyed that child and inflicted trauma they can never recover from' just think what that sounds like to a kid who finally realized after years of abuse that they were being abused when they came across some educational information they were not supposed to be looking at that not only were they abused - but their life is a hopeless void of despair which can not be recovered from.

Everywhere at the End of Time broke me super early into my listen of it. My grandma was dying of Dementia at the time, and all I could think of was the fear she felt everyday. She could no longer walk or do anything she used to enjoy, she laid in bed at the end of her life. This is a piece of art that will continue to break me.

Hey buddy, you’re not the only one! AATEOTCR had just broke me with the Rolie Polie Olie clarity! I loved that show when I was 3

[@Hyperdeath.Kisses]

EATEOT fucked me up pretty bad in 2020-2021 because my boyfriend’s health was rapidly declining after having seizures out of nowhere. He started sleeping nearly all day from the meds, he was struggling mentally and physically to perform day to day tasks and his medication sedated him horrifically. The way things were going, he and I were already thinking of worst case scenario plans. This album became popular around that time and I’ve always associated it with that time in my life. I got to the middle and was so badly triggered by all of it that I stopped. He went off the meds and his overall state improved immensely. He hasn’t had a seizure since that time. After that time in his life, he wants to live life to the fullest. He’s been hiking, doing physically intense tasks, working out and he’s back to using computers after being highly sensitive to screens. He and I are closer than ever and we’re celebrating 5 1/2 years together in February. I finished it recently as a way of conquering that fear and never listening to it again. It’s beautiful, horrific and reading the comments is absolutely heartbreaking. It’s incredible how someone could create something so emotional and gripping with samples, editing and precision. I will also never revisit that album again though.

[@bicumber]

My thoughts on songs of schizophrenia as a schizophrenic myself: The execution is poor in my opinion, however, I have schizophrenia, therefore I research it a LOT, and as I understand it, it's impossible to put one sound to schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is essentially a blanket term for thousands of very different mental conditions, like an 'other' category. The only commonality being some sort of hallucination. Someone could make an artpiece perfectly representing their own personal experience, but then another person with schizophrenia may not relate to it at all. I believe the perfect album representing schizophrenia would have to bring in many different people with the condition and base each song off of their own experiences or make it clear that it is only representing the specific experiences of the artist themselves. In terms of my personal experience, though I have no song I feel captures it well, SCP-513 seems to be a good representation for PART OF my experience, though only focusing on one of many aspects.

[@OmegaSMG]

There are very few art pieces that get schizophrenia correct on purpose, even less music that does it. I'd say Schizophrenia by Sonic Youth manages to hit on some of the emotional beats of how hard the "self" can change when Schizophrenia starts popping up. Two pieces of media that get it absolutely right though. First one is Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. The audio effects of that game sell it to me, the hallucinations in the game are some of the only representations of the hallucinations that I've found that really works. Second is not a piece specifically, rather a character. Dale Gribble from King Of The Hill is a PERFECT representation of schizophrenia imo. His delusional, child-like conspiracies mixed with the fact that he's very suggestible, and cannot even fathom someone he fully trusts betraying him. He isn't meant to represent schizophrenia by the creators, but I think he ends up doing a great job explaining how people with schizophrenia really live.

[@Prettywhite4awhiteguy]

Well put, as someone who works in the mental health care field, schizophrenia can also be built up by other disorders and it really depends on what that patient is dealing with when it comes to this very difficult disorder

[@theorist]

First off, thanks for the informative and thoughtful reply! My gf and I were unsure if I should include what I said because I think tackling any type of issue such as schizophrenia can be taken a lot of ways. So thanks for just giving clearer insight and not taking easy jabs at me! Secondly, that's a really well explained thought. I never really considered how different the experience could be for many people and I think its awesome that you educated me on that. I'll try to take this into account going forward if I talk about similar topics. I think in that aspect then songs of schizphrenia might've been ok. I admit I didn't listen to much of the album besides 2-3 songs and since those 3 sounded extremely similar i kind of brushed off the entire album. For all I know, the other songs got across different aspects/hallucinations. I always appreciate when someone comes in and shares their own personal experience so I really want to thank you for that! And thanks for taking the time to write this out so the rest of us can learn about it!

[@Horrorangell]

You’re definitely not alone regarding how dear you hold SpongeBob. My mom and dad were big fans upon the shows release, and when I was born I watched it all the time. My dad passed away in 2002 and SpongeBob was something very special that my mom and I bonded over in the fallout of that grief and my early childhood. I’m well into my 20’s and even though I haven’t watched an newer aired episode in some time, I return to seasons 1-3 occasionally to feel closer to my dad and that part of my life. Sometimes I feel silly when I am brought to tears by this cartoon and what you had to say really resonated with me. Thanks for the awesome video ❤

[@sadcatsclub8949]

I’m glad I’m not the only one. My grandfather who was slowly dying of lung cancer, would ask us if we watched SpongeBob. I was super young, but SpongeBob has been my comfort show all my life. I guess it takes me back to a happy place. I watch SpongeBob whenever something devastating happens and I can’t get it out of my head.

19:30 This piece honestly weirdly depicts what it feels/sounds like for me when I get overstimulated, especially by noise.

It's weirdly comforting to listen to, I like it

If you free your mind, I genuinely believe anything can be made creepy, if you choose to let it wander in that direction. Ps - if anyone’s looking for more disturbing songs, Immortal Technique’s “Dance With The Devil” is a good one that is self explanatory through the lyrics and allegedly a true story. As well as Slipknot’s “515” where Sid had just gotten the news his grandfather passed and went into the studio and recorded himself completely breaking down and losing it.

A family friend was diagnosed with dementia (she is only in her early sixties) several months after she went on a trip with me, my grandmother, and my younger sibling to Orange Beach. Months before she was diagnosed, on this trip, she was walking on the beach with my younger sibling when they got disoriented and mixed up which hotel we were staying in. A lot of them look similar or the same from the beach. So they walked off of the beach all the way to the road along the hotels, thinking seeing it from the front would be easier. She got lost. My younger sibling called my grandmother on her phone. We had to go find them to bring them back with us. It wasn't super common during the trip; the signs were small and few in between. Yesterday, she called my grandmother (they're best friends) on her cell phone to talk to her. Most of the things she'd said were punctuated with nervous, shaky laughter. Jumbled up words, random mentions of her surroundings at home. Sometimes she would make absolute sense, and other times she would talk about how cold it had gotten outside and how she'd go out there if it didn't mean cutting her feet off. All I could think was maybe she was thinking about frostbite? But eventually she sniffled a lot on the phone and then began to weep between sentences. "I was looking for you and I couldn't find you, I miss you, I think the world of you, thank you for saying that, you make everything better." And of course my grandmother, who is in her mid seventies, is talking to her and trying to keep her from feeling sad by just talking to her like she normally would. At one point, she got quiet and sniffled, "I don't want to die," and my grandmother responded with, "We're going to live for a long time! Don't think about that. You and me are going to live for a long time." And she responded with, "The doctors said I had something and I couldn't believe it. I didn't want to believe it. And it's real bad. It's real bad." Trying to comfort her, my grandmother said, "Well, I hope you get to feeling better!" "I hope so, I really hope so." They talked about babies and grandchildren and how sweet they were, some old memories that she seemed to recall because she's the one that brought them up. We love her a lot. So so much. She's more like family than she is a family friend. And so when I heard her on the phone like that it brought all of the desperate pain I felt back when we were told that she was diagnosed with it after our trip. Knowing that this is happening to her and that things are slipping away, that this sickness is robbing her of not only her health but her peace of mind because of how frustrating it is to search for simple words and not being able to properly voice your thoughts/communicate-- it sucks so much. Everywhere at the End of Time, when it was first popularized-- just the idea of the album alone makes me want to cry. Listening to the tracks and how it progresses and becomes to disorienting with flashes of familiar sounds and tunes-- it's ... I haven't read into the artist and why they did it but I have to imagine that they knew someone that they loved who was diagnosed. I wish there was a cure.

By the way in the “Penelope Scott” MV you referenced while talking about baphomet kun, the song isn’t his, Penelope Scott is the artist of that song (and the song is overall about feeling betrayed by public figures who you look up to turning out to be assholes, using Elon Musk as a stand in, though this isn’t to take away other interpretations of the lyrics, especially when they’re taken in separation from the rest of the song, a lot of people do interpret the lyrics as about an abusive/toxic relationship) /info

[@ConvincingPeople]

Sotos is an extremely strange guy. His work is very clearly meant to criticise and even satirise the mainstream and tabloid media's crass exploitation of sexual violence and child abuse, particularly how clear prurient interest is disguised with what he sees as disingenuous and hypocritical moral outrage, but the lengths that he is willing to go to make his point and the very evident preoccupation he has with this subject matter results in art which is incredibly difficult to stomach and raises all sorts of ethical questions in and of itself. That said, in interviews, such as a very odd recent article where a Pitchfork writer sat him and several other figures in the Chicago noise scene down to talk about contemporary metal, the man can be remarkably funny in a very dry way which both sharply contrasts with how repugnant his work often is and is somehow also recognisably in the same voice.

[@iamdamosuzuki_]

@@SOBEKCrocodileGodthat’s correct. He ran an underground magazine series called Pure which had images of CSAM in it

[@yinbakalu]

@@ConvincingPeople I like your interpretation. It's the most transgressive art one can make, about something that's difficult to talk about in every context. Should it exist? It's based on something that happens all the time but people hate talking about, but of course his approach is deliberately shocking and repulsive. I don't believe that he is making it solely out of his own perversions as many (like the video creator) have said, but I don't doubt that it's also of interest for those who have them. Which is why it's so dangerous. I remember reading about his work when I was young and getting into Whitehouse and stuff, and it fascinated and scared me but just reading about it I knew I didn't want to or need to see/hear it. I used to think, at the time, that it was a deliberate attempt to make the bleakest artwork possible and push every boundary and take the audience to horrendous places, but thinking about it as I got older raised a lot of questions. It's pure darkness in any case... I think it's just easier to dismiss him as a sick man making stuff for sick people than to really talk about it.

28:00 the sad thing about this is, iirc, beethoven stated he preferred being reputated a rude person rather than having to admit why he didnt answer to people calling and greeting him in the streets. he was so damn ashamed about being deaf. i feel so sorry for him but i'm glad he kept making music, we wouldnt have so many wonderful pieces if he didnt decide to keep going.. he sure was ahead of his time.

one thing he forgot to mention towards the end is that Edwin Borsheim committed suicide in 2017 about a year and a half after the films release

[@SOBEKCrocodileGod]

I found out that Edwin from Kettle Cadaver took his own life in 2017 “Daddy” is one of those songs I don’t even put on “most disturbing” playlists because I’d rather not have it unexpectedly come up on shuffle. Great song, but definitely not something I can easily listen to. The acapella intro and the song’s instrumental are already extremely creepy and haunting even just by sound, but when you add the subject matter, Jon’s mental breakdown, and how Korn’s debut album cover art ties into it, it’s just the coldest, darkest thing. Other pretty disturbing Korn songs are Kill You, Am I Going Crazy, Mr. Rogers, and Pretty. Pretty’s subject matter is so deeply fucked up that I don’t think I can even type it here. All I’ll say is it’s about something Jonathan saw when working as a mortician’s assistant that was so utterly sickening, horrifying, and vile that he continued to have nightmares about it for decades.

[@AydenHahnfeldt]

Things worth mentioning: - The lyrics to "Life Eternal" by Mayhem were left on the suicide note of the bands then-vocalist, who wrote the music and lyrics for a lot of the songs which appeared on their first album, before killing himself. They found themselves a new vocalist and after having recorded the whole album, but before its release, the bassist stabbed the guitarist 23 times and then sent him out of a two story window. The Bassist was found guilty on multiple accounts of arson for having been involved in many church burnings, possessing illegal weapons, and illegal explosives which were rumored to be used to bomb the cathedral which appears on the album cover of the previously mention album. Pretty intense. - For lyrical content alone: the song "Babykiller" by Devourment. Personally a huge fan of the guys, and this song was released over 20 years ago at this point, and is renowned as one of the most popular slamming brutal death metal songs and one of the most disturbing songs of all time. Honorable mentions for lyrical content: "I Cum Blood" and "Necropedophile" by Cannibal Corpse, and pretty much anything else by Devourment. - "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails. On the surface, it's a song about a horny dude. But if you understand the context of the album and the meaning of the lyrics, you understand it's the state of a depraved man who deals with cycles of hating and self loathing who finds temporary solace in sex and drug abuse. At the end of the album it's explicitly stated in one of the songs that this man shoots himself in the head. Not to mention that the song was written and recorded in the same house in which the Sharon Tate was murdered by Charles Manson. - "Iowa" by Slipknot. Aside from having disturbing lyrics involving abduction, murder, and rape, in every order, the screams and emotion by Corey Taylor were achieved by cutting himself with broken glass while recording. Also, "(515)" by Slipknot. I'm glad to have seen this one in the comments, so I'll keep it brief: the vocals are performed by a member named Sid who was on his way to visit his grandfather for the last time in the hospital, but was too late, for his grandfather had died while he was on the way there. He returned to the studio and screamed the word "death" into the microphone for some minutes on end.

[@Ryo7_7]

Much respect to your dedication. I'm a metal musician and I find this fascinating. 👍

Everywhere isn't anywhere near classical music. It's Ballroom from the early 1900's.

[@DustinRodriguez1_0]

Something else to note about the Castrati - they never stopped growing. Part of puberty involves increasing bone density when the bones lengthen, and then the ends of the bones fuse to stop growth. Without testicles to produce the hormones needed for this, their bones continue to lengthen - but they do not increase in density. Likewise, puberty causes the number of muscle fibers in the body to double (this is why it is so easy for kids in puberty to benefit from exercise very quickly and why pre-pubertal children are so weak no matter how much they exercise) and that doesn't happen either for Castrati... so they end up extremely tall, with weak bones and the muscles of a child. Their singing voice is preserved, but they had tons of other problems as they got older.

People don't get electrocuted by guitars unless the guitar itself is improperly grounded in its individual wiring setup or the amp is improperly grounded. It is very rare but cheap guitar companies often mess up wiring

[@convez]

side topic rq: one album created by “Naked City” called “Absinthe” the album is very confusing and all over the place. One track on the album called “Notre Dame De l’oubli” surfaced and became part of a meme such as “Sodium Chloride” which was on Jimmy Neutron where when the track was played, it was played as if your mind is lost, dead, confused. (look up for reference). Unlike “Notre Dame De l’oubli”, the other tracks are very off, eerie, you would not even hear these tracks in horror movies. The album just gives a very unsettling feeling. especially at night.

[@sahelhappenstance8992]

In regards to Buyer's Market, Peter Sotos was actually convicted and spent time in jail for owning child exploitation materials (aka 'cheese pizza') and claimed it was just for "research" for his writing. I've never read any of his work personally, I have no need or desire to, but I know that he inexplicably has many avid defenders and fans. Personally I think your assessment of him and his work is spot on: he created the art he wanted to see in the world, and I find it hard to believe his motivations were as altruistic as raising awareness. I think he's an extreme edgelord at best and a predator at worst.

[@Tedris4]

I wonder if someone with more willpower than I could compare his books to Lolita, which is similarly written from the perspective of a child predator, but the author was a victim of such and wrote the book as a psychological horror that would connect aspects of the main character's thought process and justifications for what he does with that of the reader, and use the story to help people recognise bad patterns and change them before they go down the slope further.

32:29 The topic with AI is how a lot of artists feel about AI art. I’m in art school right now and most students are very against it. The way AI art works is it compiles all the art uploaded online and uses it in its code to make new art, essentially stealing all the work artists have already made. Not only that, but artists are scared of losing their jobs, but also people who do not do art and have not spent years learning are now winning contests and putting AI art in galleries, diminishing all the hard work artists have spent years upon years learning to build their craft. All by some code that takes a few minutes to do. It’s very frustrating.

[@julianconcha7641]

About "Evil" by Interpol, you shoulda talked about what happened to Norman, the puppet in the music video; Apparently, it was found in a terrible state (looking very creepy), but was restored by a fan of the band that happens to make animatronic puppets as well (thanks to crowdfunding, if I remember correctly) There's also a video of Norman signing Evil when it was still torn

[@FunnyLittleFella]

Hi there! So I deal with, like, a bullshit amount of mental illnesses including dissociation and schizoaffective disorder. Thankfully I'm doing pretty well right now, but during darker and more stressful periods I have experienced a lot of terrifying things including audio and visual hallucinations. These included seeing shadowy figures for a fraction of a second (usually in the corner of my vision or when turning around doorways, that kind of thing), hearing people talking nearby but nobody being there, scratching noises in the wall, etc. I actually have a whole playlist of music that I feel does a pretty good job of kind of emulating the feeling of being in a more detrimental state of mind. Mostly dark atmosphere kind of stuff. Some stuff I would recommend checking out that are kind of "schizo-core" would be: The OST for Postal 1, the industrial songs from Silent Hill 1 and 2 like "My Heaven" and "Mansion Horrors" (hell, I would just recommend the full OST for both if you haven't listened to them or played the games, they're really beautiful), "Rainbow Mirror", by Prurient/Dominick Fernow, CoConuts (very mysterious band that only released one self-titled album), and some of the pieces from "Flowers of Evil", by Ruth White (an amazing take on Baudelaire's work). Obviously none of these fully emulate hallucinations/schizophrenic symptoms, I don't think such a thing is truly possible, but they're all things I listen to because they kind of feel like a musical version of those feelings, if that makes any sense. Even though they're meant to be unnerving, ironically they can kind of be comforting for me when I'm going through a rough patch because they give a voice to the often abstract feelings associated with mental illness. Anyway, I hope that helps.

IIRC Alessandro Moreschi, the castrato in the recording, was speculated to have undergone the procedure for a medical reason (a hernia surgery I think??) and that the practice of performing it to preserve the voice had become rarer if not completely disappeared by the time of his career.

When we got the part about Kettle Cadaver, it really reminded me of a band from my youth where I grew up....The Bad Luck 13 Riot Extravaganza. I tend to believe that what Kettle Cadaver was doing was undoubtedly worse, but if that kind of thing interests you Bad Luck 13 might be up your alley. They were also into the extreme wrestling sort of stuff and basically got kicked out of every venue in Philly. Don't know how much video there is out there of them (and the music wasn't great either). But I dunno, they might be an interesting rabbit hole for the curious.

[@MyOddExperiences]

I have schizophrenia. The best auditory representation of it would be a radio blasting songs that overlap and change constantly. There’s so much noise in your head and voices are only a small part of that.

Pretty hard to put schizophrenia into a music context. I suffer from paranoid schizophrenia and the way it presents itself to me which is the most terrorizing is hearing the voices of people I know/trust discussing everything I’m doing, secrets about me, how they are going to ruin my life, etc. The impact of the disease comes from how personal the experience is for the person suffering.

[@chocolate_gore]

Just before layer 5, but I’m kinda surprised Hamburger Lady by Throbbing Gristle wasn’t mentioned yet It’s kinda like Penderecki but more industrial Also, people may know work of Penderecki from Shutter Island or The Shining. Surprised it wasn’t mentioned ~

[@KoalaProductions]

I listened to an EATEOT minecraft version and it had a similar effect on me, was so surreal hearing those songs changed and distorted, like alternate reality versions, and a similar emotional effect of thinking back on how my good memories of minecraft are going to fade and not quite be the same as the first time. Gives you a moment to really soak in just how much you truly enjoyed something when you hear the physical incarnation of it being forgotten

If we talk about Leyland Kirby, I really reccomend "Eager to tear apart the stars"! It feels like a journey through the vast void of space, amazing! Also, Your pronounciation of Penderecki is ok, but he "c" is pronounced like "ts" so Pen-deh- reh-tski. He was so good with expressing bad emotions, the atrocities. He's a great contemporary composer, that abroad is totally unknown.

A few minor corrections: EATEOT uses 1920s pop music, not classical which by that point was a couple hundred years old The strings of the electric guitar dont "carry voltage" as it were. The simplified version of it is that the pickups work like a generator or electromagnet. The signal comes from the strings which are metal moving past the pickup because of some interesting physics. The biggest issue comes from the amplifier (note different from ampheres, although they share the same abbreviation and are somewhat related) the problem happens when old amplifiers are plugged in incorrectly. The ground and neutral wires -or wires that should be at 0 volts- used to be the same wire, and used to be connected to the case. When plugging in those old cables there was a 50/50 chance the case of the amp would be live instead of neutral. This was bad but the resistance of the skin is often enough to keep it from being immediately fatal. Rain and sweat lower the resistivity and increase the chance of death. Again im simplifying but the risk with modern instruments is very low if they have proper 3 prong plugs and no internal shorts. This actually used to be an issue with radios as well.

I would have added the Song of the Second Moon by Tom Dissevelt & Kid Baltan from 1957 when electronic music was in its infancy.
