One maybe unexpected genre which immediately came to mind is hip hop. The story told through the lyrics is pure horror and crafted like one. That backing beat is classic Carpenter which is not entirely what you're looking for but there's a reason that sound is so memorable eh??

SUNN O))) kind of sounds like what they play in hell while they're waiting for Doomguy to show up.

Awesome idea for a thread btw, why not introduce people to weird avant garde music styles??

Really terrible how Alice Glass was treated, the result though for a while was Crystal Castles became an outlet of pure personal expression for her until she left.

(warning, this one actually is violently loud)

edit: For reference, her latest solo album was co-produced by HEALTH and is directly about her experiences so she's doing well now but it's a heavy listen.

the, uh "vocals" in Aphex Twin 'Gwarek2' get me every time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMRy3uRhNJ4

it feels a little bit like rats are running around in my headphones. Aphex twin rules.

edit: Haha I recognize some of the early sounds from Silent Hill (the timestamped yelp is one), that's the best.

Totally agreed about pattern recognition and how it can turn 'noise' into 'music' in an instant and the human brain is really cool for being able to do that. The Hotline Miami track Run is my favorite example, where for the first ~30 seconds anyone I push it on is very uneasy, then gets real quiet.

Anything by the late Krzysztof Penderecki makes me pretty spooked. If you've seen The Shining, you've heard these, but not in their entirety. His compositions tend to get more unsettling the longer you listen. Bloodborne soundtrack got nothing on Penderecki

Twin Peaks Season 3's representation of July 16, 1945 (yes, that July 16, 1945) needs to be seen and heard to be believed honestly. Absolute horror for the forseeable future all of mankind represented beautifully. It just loving keeps going. Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima couldn't have been a more perfect song choice.

Alzheimer's: The Album(s)

The last bit reflecting a final moment of clarity before breaking apart into noise then silence is horrific

Dude the segment where an entire, unbroken track plays... a few tracks pass in its normal fashion... and then that exact track plays again unaltered including the title if you check the liner, legitimately frightened me coming from a family with a history of alzheimer's. It got me drat good. I didn't even realize.

Justice Yeldham's music isn't so bad. Until you notice his instrument is a sheet of broken glass hooked up to an amplifier, and that he plays it with his face.

:nws: for blood.

"Yes, that's right, Doctor, this man is sane. You see, I can tell because at around the point where he starts chomping into and then licking the sheet of now thoroughly jagged glass to produce yet further heinous musical sound, he does not offer a single shard to the audience."
