SAD BANGERS

[The Mollusk]

Big fuckin floor fillers that are full of sorrow, regret, loneliness, failure, defeat.

Do you dance with tears in your eyes? What are best songs to do that by?

Hot Chip - Boy From School

Hercules and Love Affair - Blind

And of course...

Robyn - Dancing On My Own

BREAK MY HEART ON THE DANCEFLOOR, CaB.

[spaghetamine]

Jane Wiedlin - Inside A Dream

bouncy tune, super melancholy lyrics

[Pearly-Dewdrops Drops]

Bananarama - "Cruel Summer"

[Icehaven]

Faithless - Insomnia

[phes]

Dirty Epic

[BlodwynPig]

Cherushii feat. Maria Minerva - Thin Line

Sadder still as Cherushii sadly died in the Ghost Ship nightclub fire.

[phes]

Oh wow I love the Cherushii reccs in the techno thread and did not know that

[Twit 2]

CRYING IN THE CLUB

[SpiderChrist]

Womack & Womack -Teardrops

[Dusty Substance]

Supercut by Lorde - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xguIYNjYU1A.

[gmoney]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eISo-iFGGDg - LCD Soundsystem - Someone Great

No, I'm not crying, I think I've just done a bad pill. Hold me.

[Johnny Yesno]

Killing Joke - Love Like Blood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnpwuRlXbhk (Did I spy Barry Shitpeas?)

Skinny Puppy - Worlock: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y83YQiznQQY

[BlodwynPig]

Killing Joke - Love Like Blood: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnpwuRlXbhk (Did I spy Barry Shitpeas?)

Not a banger, but Jana?

[Gregory Torso]

Sally Shapiro probably fits this remits

I'll Be By Your Side

He Keeps Me Alive

Maybe it's just the time-frame makes my heart percolate, wishing i was twenty five again, run it thru a filter and bleed it out

[buttgammon]

Cherushii feat. Maria Minerva - Thin Line

Sadder still as Cherushii sadly died in the Ghost Ship nightclub fire.

All of the tracks on that EP are beautiful; I'd already fallen in love with them before I heard what had happened to Cherushii, so they took on an added poignancy after that.

[Gregory Torso]

Cherushii feat. Maria Minerva - Thin Line

Sadder still as Cherushii sadly died in the Ghost Ship nightclub fire.

This is a fantastic song, and sad as hell.

I remember reading about that fire. Big fan of 100% Silk.

A good one to send you down the tear wormhole

Dan Mason - Nothing Matters

[BlodwynPig]

This is a fantastic song, and sad as hell.

When Maria changes tack on the chorus...her voice...bang. She invited me to London once to personally pick up her new record but I was too much of a twit to accept.

[Gregory Torso]

I love her stuff, Tallin At Dawn is a favourite in my house.

[BlodwynPig]

Back to bangers, CaB favourite *, from his melancholic banger laden album Diary of a Lonely Sailor (poor quality sound on this vid sadly)

The Timewriter - Hope and Despair


* a few of us on here

[buttgammon]

Dan Mason - Nothing Matters

Ooh thank you!

A man of this judgement is responsible for public health?!

[BlodwynPig]

Ooh thank you!

A man of this judgement is responsible for public health?!

I know. I think I was either broke, busy at work or COMPLETELY BONKERS

[Norton Canes]

Skinny Puppy - Worlock

Oh yes, +1 for that. By far the best thing that came out of their sessions with Al Jourgensen. "Cyclops overlooks optic options", indeed.

[Norton Canes]

I must have shitloads of these kind of songs. I'll have to have a look through my files.

Don't think any of them will be better than this, though: The Juan Maclean - Dance With Me

[BlodwynPig]

The Timewriter - Lost in Lyrix

"Add more acid"...then weep while you dance alone in the nightclub

[Johnny Yesno]

That's so weird. I came across that track when I was trying to find this:

Lords Of The New Church - Dance With Me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOhXJqt-DtY

It sprung into my mind when I saw the Robyn track mentioned, but I couldn't remember who it was by. Google can be fucking useless these days.

[Brundle-Fly]

Dan Mason - Nothing Matters

'Simply having a melancholic Christmastime'.

[Glebe]

Not hugely versed in dance music, but would this qualify?:

Olive - 'You're Not Alone'.

[MiddleRabbit]

Nothing But A Heartache by The Flirtations, Le Responsable by Jacques Dutronc.

[TheMonk]

Gloria by Laura Branigan. I'd never really realised it until I saw that awful video the other day of the Trump clan just before the speech that inspired his followers to wipe their sh@t on the walls of congress.
