Thanks, iYup. Honestly, I'm not sure what inspired me to do such a dark list. It just sort of came together in a very strange way.I just finished Reggo's list. Let me just say that this one felt apocalyptic. I definitely heard the ominous undercurrents that others have commented upon, which suggests that this playlist has been highly successful in creating and sustaining a certain mood.
Here are a few highlights:
The stretch from "Revolution 9" to "Lullaby" was almost disturbingly cohesive, and I loved the inclusion of "Subway Song."
On some days, "Please" is among my top three U2 songs, and its inclusion here did an example job of highlighting a somber element to U2's music that is too often forgotten.
The Sunn O))) track developed in a hypnotic manner; I remained thoroughly interested throughout the entire sixteen minutes.
I was unfamiliar with most of the artists included here, so I was forced from my comfort zone; the experience, however, was rewarding.
I'm listening to yours now. Loving it. I've yet to listen to collapse's list, but you and Screwtape are neck-and-neck for my top vote at the moment.
