Poll question: Most Morose Band?

Here's the deal: I pretty much for the last 13 or so years have only listened to three bands.

Which do you think is the most cripplingly morose of the three?

5. ok I went with NiN

because "Hurt" stuck in head. MM sang that dashboard song which pulled em up. Can't rem the 3rd.. short term memory is shot.

I'd go with Blue October on your definition of morose though. Hec, call me a hillbilly, but I thought Morose was an exhaust system lol

:hide:

6. "Dashboard" gets instantly cancelled out by

"Someday somehow you will die and something's going to steal your carbon." :P

3. does Hank Williams count as a band?

there's a man that'll make you want to down a bottle of wine, tie a rock around yer ankle, jump off a bridge and literally tear your own heart out before you hit the bottom.

17. I wouldn't say nin is more morose than radiohead..

Now nin is really more political and less personal. Actually I would say early nin was more angry than anything else. I have little Trent in my avatar and he doesn't look sad :7. Radiohead was always the more "I'm so depressed" of the two.

19. It's most morose of the three.

The Cure would hardly compete, at any rate. :eyes:
