Ok, the lyrics may be sad sometimes, but the songs aren't as depressing as everybody believes them to be.

    I love Nick Drake and I find his music inspiring. I generally like what others would call "melancholy" music but to me its relaxing. I find rap and metal depressing cause to me it sounds like shot lol.
    You should try Tim Buckley if you like Nick, I find them both really nice to listen to.

      Depressing, they obviously haven't listened to The Seer all the way through yet hehehe.

      Swans will make mincemeat of your feels.

        Haha, this is my experience with the seer.

        Uneasy, depressed, the it gets to the wolf and I feel uneasy which is immediately followed by making me jump, back to uneasy, then hopelessness followed by numbness then finally just drained. In the best possible way

          I love how the wolf leads into that clusterfuck of noise, then at like 14 mins in when it gets to the crashes I lay on the floor and stare at the roof. I turn it up stupidly loud, because when I listen to swans, so do the Neighbors.

            Oh yeah it just feels wrong if it's not loud verging on painful, the transition from the wolf into the wall of wailing bagpipes is one of my favorite moments
