I'm so ronrey
"I Got a Feeling" by Neva Denova. It's not a famous band or song, but its so incredibly sad and angry and nihilistic and there's nothing else that comes close. When I'm feeling really shitty though, it kind of cheers me up. It has this long sing-along outro, "The world's a shitty place, and I can't wait to die." But after repeating this over and over the song ends and someone in the background says affectionately, "I'm just kidding world, you know I love you." I've struggled with intrusive negative thoughts for most of my life, and there is something cathartic about having my internal pain externalized in song-form, and that final line is like a voice I've had to develop that fights against all the negativity, to like survive the worst of the blackest depressions. Except instead of taking no small amount of energy to consciously or automatically summon that voice, it comes easy; it's right on the recording, and it plays every time.
I wouldn't say I'm embarrassed to tell people about the song, but I do think people would worry about me if they knew I listened to it when at my worst. But it really makes me feel like, "well at least I'm not that depressed and nihilistic," and it helps.

I think this song is really good but it doesn't at all fit my friends vibe so I don't share it.
It gets better by the same artist is also really good.
There's nothing I listen to regularly that I'd be too embarrassed to make other people listen to. OTOH, I know that a lot of people won't like the music I listen to, so I usually just wear headphones.
The closest I have to a 'guilty pleasure' is HIM; the lyrics are pure goth-emo trash, but Vallo does some really good wordplay, has a very good range (...in the studio; he doesn't sound nearly as good live), and the music has tons of pop-metal hooks.
Park Amsterdam - Maaya Sakamoto
I'm kinda digging this idk, the drums are super emotional which I appreciate
Among many, The Kingdom by Clamavi De Profundis (to be found on Tidal, Spotify, Youtube).
While You Sleep - The Bamboo's
It captures a mood and moment that I can't describe all that well, but that I can imagine crystal clear.
A song called Krustenficker. I really like the beat but I can't hear it with my kids in range for eh. textual reasons, since they do speak german ..
Monster by Dodie w/Pomplamoose
This slaps
Wait wut? The OG is so good, didn't know she also have one with pomplamoose
The Wad - Vels Trio
Genre wise it's on the spectrum between jazz and prog-rock. And somehow manages to sound like a cross between New Order's Blue Monday and Parliament's Flashlight.
Not really embarassed, just aware that most people in my RL social circles would not enjoy at all.
Ozar Midrashim - Information Society (aka Kain's Theme from Soul Reaver)
Performed by Jason Paige, his passion really brings it to this song. Edit: Song - Pokemon Theme Song (original)
