So I've always noticed when I'm as down as I can get, I find comfort is music that most people find super depressing all the way to unbearably depressing. Like slit-your-wrists depressing. Songs you'd expect to find someone hanging from a noose in their home on repeat to. These kinds of songs bring comfort because they make me feel like, ok, I'm not so alone with this shit.

And for context, really happy songs just seem the saddest, most devastating songs that there are, because you don't have that, you don't have that happiness, love, support, that glimmer of light everyone's so happy about you know?

So gimme the saddest songs you can think of. I'm wearing Joy Division out.

Some other music/songs I've been listening to: Ren - Hi Ren (and some others of his), Elliott Smith, Micah P. Hinson, Portishead, Swans, Lykke Li - I Never Learn, Interpol, Chelsea Wolfe, Elton John - Rocketman, Matt Elliott, Savages - Adore

It's September finally and so begins the process of the ending of my least favorite season (Summer) and the gradual start of my favorite season, Autumn.

Figured today would be a good day to share your favorite songs that recognize the end of Summer and the start of Autumn

ABBA's "Our Last Summer" immediately started playing in my head lol. https://youtu.be/KoyNlVQbUPc?si=b1UzLYXp12CGKWv5

But what are some of your favorite songs that kind of hit this moment?

What are you sending down them ear tubes to wash over your brainicles today???

@[email protected] posted an article about US College radio stations (read post).

I suggested starting a thread with some good radio station streams and podcasts (from where-ever)…so here it is.

My idea would be to include:

• Name of your recommendation
• Link to live stream, listen again page or podcast homepage
• Brief description about why you recommend it

I will post a couple below to start off.

Edit - I just noticed that @[email protected], posted on this topic the other day, so check that out, too.
