Intro:

My sister recently challenged me to show the weirdest/darkest songs on my playlist to some of my friends lol. I have friends but I'd rather just GAG because I mean, that's easier. So don't kill me, sorry if you hate the songs haha.

As always enjoy or no, both are welcomed.

1. Darkstar, Empress Of- Reformer

2. Toni Romiti- OMG

3. Sevdaliza- Human

4. Glass Animals- Toes

5. ABRA- Diamonds & Gold

Uuuuh I sampled the ""human" song, and judging with that, it does have a bit of a dark tone but not really. Repeating "I am human" several times doesn't really do it for me. Want something REALLY dark? There's these I can think of. And many more. Look up the lyrics of each, and you'll find that I think they go quiiite a bit further than the vids you posted. I think those vids need work on the lyrics as it's too much metaphor that's not straight forward so the meaning is lost a bit. If they made lyrics a bit more straight forward and not so quiet and limited, I'd have more respect. Keep in mind too, NONE of these required fanservice to gain popularity. Cause unless you have a REALLY good reason for stripping women, then the assumption is that it's there to trick idiotic guys to buy it out of sexual appeal. None will give a shit about the dark tones and treat it like porn. So again, not impressed and I think "dark" the wrong description.

I've heard some of these and liked the songs but I mean I didn't want to put SUPER dark songs on here because, lol I'm not trying to freak everyone out severely. I just choose some that are dark enough, but still cool to listen to.

[Opinion Owner]

Oh really? Cool. Which ones you know? I'm trying REALLY hard not to come off as mean, rude, snobby, etc, but for people that have been fans of legit dark in your face blunt lyric kinda music since middle school, it's a bit insulting to use OUR kinda tone on what is just slightly different pop without ANY credit. Re-looking at what you have, I kinda see them as too light and dense to be considered "dark" at all. The voices are often light sounding and gentle, there's nothing there to mess with the psyche or scare anyone a bit. I don't really see much difference between these and today's hit song. The songs you have while maybe looking a bit more gothic than an average pop vid, seem focused on the artist's looks to gain any attraction whatsoever to the videos. It just seems... self centered. Like the artist is saying "look at me! LOOK AT ME! I am SPECIAL! I AM SO DARK LOOKING! OOOH! I'M SOOO MYSTERIOOOUUUS! Ones I posted mentions suicide, rape, questioning of life. We ALL relate to it

Well to be fair, I said some of the darkest songs on MY playlist. Me and you differ, I knew all of these except the very last one. Also, I don't consider Hopsin dark. Especially not his one about questioning God. It's kind of just a path a lot of people go down and it is more liberating in my opinion. And the only artist who may be doing what you said is Toni, the girl who made that song OMG. Sevadliza makes all her songs like this. ABRA, her name is literally called "The Dark Wave Dutchess." Glass Animals TOES is based off a story where a doctor was doing experiments on people and sewing together animals and humans and making them monsters. And that's me putting it lightly. These songs are "dark" they just aren't your kind. and that's me trying REALLY hard to be nice. Jk lol, but I found that line interesting. It's like saying no offense after you say something offensive.

[myTake Owner]

I have dark songs, songs that might cater to your view of dark now that i understand what you particularly like. But i chose not to put them because despite me knowing of or having them. Some just might not sit with some people well and for me, i picked songs that will be light enough to go over peoples heads but still dark enough to make this take tolerable. The fact that is is kind of similar to some mainstream works helps some people get through it better.

[myTake Owner]

See for me, I can border into a lot of music. Pretty much anything... well except for hardcore screamo music. That shit is nails on a chalkboard for me. however, despite me being able to love a lot of sounds and dark themes. It's not something I show off like I'm some kind of special vulture or bat in the night sky. It's kind of annoying to me when people are like that honestly. And why does it have to be OUR kind of tone? People who listen to darker themes don't OWN dark themed music and i find it insulting you think that because you can take something harder that gives you the right claim this is a mockery or something. When it isn't, it's simply not the kind of dark music you listen to. Did you even listen to the lyrics? Mins the OMG song of course. Did you go out of your way to look at the background and story behind these songs? Because they are relatable. They are great pieces of work. I don't know, it's weird to me that people use this stuff as an EGO brush.

[Opinion Owner]

Ah, so catering more to the main crowd in order to reel them in a bit easier. Clever. You answered my questioning perfectly and without getting offended. That's admirable. My issue is, would people see these as they were meant to be, which is a lure into a darker side of music, or just something to treat not as art, but any other dance song? Reminds me of the issue with popularity of "This is America." It's BEYOND dark and the symbolism is deeper often than even the most intense black metal out there. It's rare something that much of a treasure can get any attention and I'm just wishing intensely more like it is made. Yet, instead of treating it as art, it's thrown in like trash, Ariana Grande, just because it has mainstream status. So, I guess it's just a risk. But really, just one more person getting into darker music more and more slowly, but surely would make this worth it.

[juliaanita]

Thanks for the MHO!

[howlyz]

I like number four the most, it is a great song really in my opinion. If you want something dark and weird you can always listen to this and hope you enjoy, it's meant to be weird, ok

[howlyz]

skip to "34:30 Rattlesnake - Caravan of Thieves" and continue listening, it is also musically much better in my opinion

[myTake Owner]

Hey, it reminds me of this music I listen to. It always reminds me of gypsies if that makes sense? I really like this song. I have some songs like this haha

[myTake Owner]

Honestly, I listen to everything under the sun so it was hard to choose five for this. Five that were acceptable yet new sounds sort of.

[howlyz]

what about the song "1:12:35 Graveyard - Devil Makes Three"

[howlyz]

this girl has a "unconventional" music channel but she knows music, give it a go if you wish, it's not a bad compilation, I listen to everything (that I like lol)

[Jjpayne]

Most of the songs are pretty chill and relaxed, although I just listened for vocals and music I could not hear the lyrics too well...

[Kaneki05]

I Like them but these been dark this is like child play to me

[errorgoodnameunfound]

I said the same thing. I wake up to Deicide alarms like it's nothing, yet it'd terrify any neighbor in this building as if some sort of nightmare from hell. So these videos being "dark"? Please. Gotta describe them better. Be honest. They are basically Kesha or Lady Gaga if one of them got a bit depressed or went through a goth phase. And that's not even insulting considering both of those artists I actually have some respect for. could've said trash like Ariana Grande, or more so, Meghan Trainer and Iggy Azeala.
