Truly Frightening/Creepy Songs?

[slain]

I've always thought that Revolution 9 by The Beatles was creepy as hell. Anyone else have any songs that are really creepy, or stuff that they're even afraid to listen to?

Halloween II by The Misfits is a song I hate hearing when it's really dark out and I am alone.

I used to listen to a WWF CD when I went to sleep, well one night I woke up after falling asleep and it was Psycho Sid's music playing, scared the living shit out of me, so that one does it for me.

[Toe]

Barbara Streisand is pretty terrifying too.

[Nerf]

That one part of Tubular Bells with the crazy monster noises. It used to shit me up as a kid.

[Dr. Rated-R]

I generally despise Mike Patton, but "Rosemary's Baby" by Fantômas is great. It creeps me out majorly, I love it.

As far as horror movies go, just about all of the music in the 1963 version of "The Haunting" gets to me.

Although it probably doesn't really count for a song that much, the start of the hidden track of New Found Glory's 'Sticks And Stones' CD, scared the piss out of me as I had the earphones in, at like 1AM when I first heard it, and had no clue what the hell was going on until the rest of it kicked it.

Theres a Team Sleep song featuring Mike Patton that's always sounded creepy to me. Can't remember the name of it though :ohwell:

Double-0 Ghost 27 by John Frusciante

[GoGo Yubari]

So back in 2001 I bought Gorillaz' self-titled release. When I got home, I put it on play and lay down to relax a bit, and I then proceeded to fall asleep. I woke up at... about 5 AM, I'd say, with everything completely dark... and "M1A1" playing. I was pretty much too scared to move.

Also, I've always found "They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaaa!" by Napoleon XIV to be one of the most unintentionally frightening songs of all time. Or, at least, I've always believed it was unintentional.

When I was 14 I heard my first Napalm Death Song.....needless to say I was a little creeped out.

[Fanku Kaibutsu]

I forget the name of the song, but there's a Marilyn Manson song that has a voice saying "Prick your finger it is done, the moon has now eclipsed the sun. The angel has spread it's wings. The time has come for bitter sings." Easily the creepiest thing I've ever heard on a CD.

Saying that, the start of the album version of The Beautiful People always freaked me out for some reason. Maybe because the first time I heard it I was like 13, home alone, in pitch darkness.

Nine Inch Nails' "Another Version of the Truth" from Year Zero disturbed me the first time I heard it. Was reading "World War Z" (which somehow meshes together really well with Yr. Zero) and came to the Battle of Yonkers as the track came on.

Static-X's "A Dios Alma Perdida" can scare the bejeebus out of you if you're not paying attention when it comes on. Won't spoil it for you, but you'll know when the song has officially kicked in.

[VerbalPuke]

Axeman by Amebix is pretty fucking creepy with the lyric "SLAUGHTER!!!" and then with some whispering voice "He's herreeee".

There was this band called Ethnic Cleansing that I found to be very frightening. It was more to do with just how fucking racist they were, and their sound was just...scary. I could picture a bunch of idiot skinheads assembling to this shitty RAC music.

[Steeb]

'Frankie Teardrop' by Suicide, and anyone who says otherwise has no soul.

[VerbalPuke]

Good point on Frankie Teardrop, really spooky in it's own right. Speaking of synth powered bands, Hands in the Dark by Dark Day is creepy in it's own right. Maybe synth music has that quality.

Verbal Puke, it's time for you to do that job I gave you.

[VerbalPuke]

I'm not sucking your cock.
