'The Eternal' by Joy Division has to be up there.

Definitely, Joy Division has to be up there as one of the most depressing bands ever. As a teenager "She's lost control" really used to affect my emotions.
Sadly, the lead singer committed suicide. The remaining members formed New Order, whose music was somewhat less depressing.

I haven't went through this thread as lately my musical tastes have been a little bit more soulful and upbeat, but I was planning on coming in here just to post She's Lost Control, but you beat me to it. I think Ian Curtis hung himself off of the clothes shoot to the hamper, or something like that. I think he tied the rope to the clothes shoot, and then jumped out the window, but I can't recall. A lot of bands from that time frame were depressing, and even on that label, that Factory label I think it was called. Section-25 was a band that did one or two albums, and I think their debut album was produced by Ian Curtis. I went through a brief Post-Punk phase where I couldn't get enough of that kind of music. All that Joy Division, Magazine, The Cure, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, The Chameleons, Echo & The Bunnymen,etc.. Modern English's first album before they got famous is a depressing album, enought to make you contemplate suicide.
Wanted to mention Sad Lovers & Giants who NEVER gets mentioned amongst that depressing post punk sound. Their first two albums are as good as anything their contemporaries ever put out.
I wanted to mention Dead Babies and Black JuJu by Alice Cooper.
