I dunno

but I heard a Greg Dulli solo track the other night and it sounded like Wham.

Oh Greg wins at these!!

Faded
This I feel
Behind the blue clouds
I remain concealed
Lord, lift me out of the night
Come on, look down
And see the mess I'm in tonight

Black Love is the most amazing and dark album ever

That bit in Bulletproof when the main riff kicks in is one of those fist in the air moments.

Tonight's a Dulli/ Lanegan special

I've got 'Dust' ready to go after this.

I love "double day" off that record

really cool vocals- those big slurs are almost hilarious.

Well shit.

How about Radiohead's "True Love Waits"?
"I'm not living, I'm just killing time."

Or the entirety of Modest Mouse's The Moon & Antarctica, specifically "The Cold Part"?

"So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this bone bleached part of the world
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this salt soaked part of the world
I stepped down as president of Antarctica
Can't blame me, don't blame me, don't
So long to this sad, sad part of the world
So long, So long"

no one does self loathing like the scots...

"woke up again today,
realised i hate myself,
my face is a disease"

by the sublime malcolm middleton.

yet such a lively jangly tune that you almost dont notice.

dismemberment plan

ice of boston.
But maybe more broody self-loathing than pity?
