Daddy is also mine. The music and the lyrics just make it eerie as hell.

The Disturbed version of 'the sound of silence' is pretty awesome.

Waiting Around to Die by Townes van Zandt

Probably not the most haunting but up there for me. It paints tauma, depression, addiction, crime, and incarnation very well. The title reminds me of a piece of a lyric from another song "If you're dreaming of dying, you're not really living, darling..."

Agreeing. It's the angelic choir vocals at the start and the words "remember I will always love you, I'm your son". That creepy bass, the zipper and belt buckle sounds, the eerie vocals and words like "innocent child", some sinister phrasing "and on your flesh I'll eat". Then the chorus comes in with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer. Back to creepy and eerie verse. Chorus comes in fully unhinged. Song slows a bit only to end up making way for a genuine breakdown with real tears as the rest of the band gradually drop out, unsure of how to deal with their singer crying with rage and dispair. The song then ends with a tape recording of a woman singing what sounds like a lullaby a mother would sing to comfort their child.

It's hair raising through out. There are songs that reduce me to tears, but this one just leaves me in shock. Being raped as a child by a neighbour and having his parents refuse to believe him. That's a lot of trauma for anyone, let alone a child whose probably up to that point been naive about how nice the world is. The rawness and emotional weight behind that song makes it seem untouchable. That whole first album hits hard and as the closing track it stays in your brain whether you want it to or not.

Daddy by Korn by far. Also Dirty and Trash give me the creeps. I could pick a lot of Korn songs cuz there’s so much rage and pain packed into them. The angriest are probably - Chi, lies, ball tongue, good god, Mr. Rogers. Also songs from singers that commit suicide or overdose, like Linkin park, nutshell by Alice in chains, and pretty noose by soundgarden considering Cornell hanged himself.

For me it's the Swans Are Dead version of I Crawled by Swans. The way the music just creeps along slowly before exploding at the end is intense but it's Jarboe's vocals....frightening yet truly impressive.
