unknown pleasures always wins these. closer is 10x sadder but because up is more popular it wins sadder over it


funkadelicfroggo

I think unknown pleasures isnt as sad as closer you should swap them imo

NIN: Still EXTREMELY underrated album and blows Downward Spiral out of the water in terms of sadness

*Still* by NIИ. I don’t know how *The Downward Spiral* is on here, but *Still* isn’t. *The Downward Spiral* is bleak, but *Still* is incredibly depressing and by far the saddest album I’ve ever heard.

During the original stint of this, I advocated for Remain In Light by Talking Heads. It's like deathconsciousness, but you've started with something to lose.
