Rock/metal music to listen to before CTB

[VeryShy]

I'm mostly a rock/metal music fan. Suggest your favourite songs for me to listen to before I CTB. Preferably from the 60s to the late 90s.

You someone who wants to try to feel good in those hours and minutes beforehand or wallow in songs like Hurt and Nutshell to get the mood going toward ending things?

Anyway...

WASP - Hallowed Ground
Ten Years After - I'd Love to Change the World
Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper
Bob Dylan - One More Cup of Coffee
Beatles - Eleanor Rigby
Bon Jovi - Only Lonely
Culture Club - Who Killed Rock and Roll
The Who - Eminence Front

Not sure if it falls in your preferences but In the End by Linkin Park (2000) to me is a must have. Or A Place for my Head, maybe it fits even more.
And definitely Creep by Radiohead!!

Don't fear the reaper - a classic, and my favorite song. It's the song I listened to before one of my major failed ctb's and will listen again many other times before I ctb again. Also Carry on wayward son, mainly for supernatural.

 

[Rocinante]

Maybe you'll like these?

I just wanna lay in bed while listening to music before I get unconscious.

Maybe you will like this? It's a DSBM genre

Gregg Allman - I'll Be Holding On
Cinderella - Nobody's Fool
Ozzy Osborne & Lita Ford - Close My Eyes Forever
Black Sabbath - No Stranger to Love
Dio - Rainbow in the Dark
Christopher Cross - Ride Like the Wind (or the Saxon cover if you insist on something more metal)

Shizuka's 1994 Tenkai no Persona. Raw, mournful, tragic, lonely, and cathartic can only begin to describe it. Japanese and a bit avantgarde. Shizuka later committed suicide in 2010. Her story is a worthwhile read


And you can never go wrong with The Cure's Disintegration. Dreamy gothic rock classic.

Peut-être que ça vous plaira ? C'est un genre DSBM

love also depressive black metal

 

[dolemitedrums]

Richie Sambora - One Light Burning
U2 - The Unforgettable Fire
Bad Company - Bad Company
Pat Benatar - Run Between the Raindrops
Iron Maiden - Blood Brothers
Alan Parsons Project - Games People Play

Does post-rock also count?

Some absolute sad bangers:

• We Lost The Sea - A Gallant Gentleman.
• The Album Leaf - Window.
• Dirty Three - Lullabye for Christie.
• Caspian - Hymn for the Greatest Generation.
• MONO - Memorie dal Futuro.

And some less sad, but still sad songs.

• Sigur Rós - Dvergmál.
• Múm - Green Grass Of Tunnel.
• Explosions in the Sky - Your Hand in Mine.
• Sigur Rós - Hoppípolla.
• Mogwai - The Sun Smells Too Loud

Oops, I just read that you're mainly looking for songs from the 20th century. Feel free to ignore this post, but you are missing out!

You could try out The Tenth Sub Level of Suicide by Leviathan. Really depressive stuff.
