04.06.22 | Grouper- Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill
Low- Things We Lost in the Fire
Julianna Barwick- The Magic Place
Those have helped me and comforted me in the past (and right now as well)
Just talking through things however, helps immensely more than just being alone if the issue becomes urgent or more than just life's woes, like something that your friend is actively struggling with |

04.06.22 | if i think about this phase of my life the war on drugs - deeper understanding and some of kristin hersh's solo records (sunny border, grotto, wyatt) were very close to what someone might call cathartic, but i doubt they'd be very useful for anybody else as it's all so specific |

Killswitch Engage - Killswitch Engage (2004 remaster of debut) |
IsisScript80
04.06.22 | Hmm… depending on what’s going on at different points in my life, various songs/sections of discographies of bands like: Converge, DEP, Neurosis, Swans, GY!BE, Joy Division, AtD-I, The Haunted, Killing Joke, King Crimson, Isis, My Dying Bride and such, tend to do the trick. |

04.06.22 | “Depends on exactly my feeling - if it's straight up anger, my go to is usually Pantera, Meshuggah, or Cannibal Corpse.”
Yeah, it’s really a primary function of Metal/aggressive music in general to be cathartic. |
JKing92
04.06.22 | Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral
Alice in Chains - Dirt |

04.06.22 | Chest Pain- S/T

For aggressive:
Sex Prisoner- S/T
Magnum Force- Self Loathing
Today is the Day- Willpower
Magrudergrind- s/t
Other:
Mum- The Land Between Solar Systems
Scale the Summit- Migration
Aggalloh- Ashes Against the Grain

tbh when i am legitimately angry i'm incapable of listening to anything at all... love metal, core etc. but mostly cause i think its fun more than anything. |

04.06.22 | Honestly, probably Huey Lewis and the News - Greatest Hits. They make music that soothes my soul and puts me in a better headspace. |
Wildcardbitchesss
04.06.22 | Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. |
ArsMoriendi
04.06.22 | Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest

ReturnToRock
04.06.22 | I will always talk about how Slipknot S/T let me vent when I was 14.
Now, though? I mostly play music to feel happy. And in that regard, I have a few mainstays - mostly albums where I can sing along to every word of most of the songs.
Dookie - Green Day
Take Off... - Blink-182
First two albums by Oasis
London Calling - The Clash
Nevermind - Nirvana
S/T debut by RDGLDGRN
Are the ones that come to mind right now. These always get me happy and singing/dancing along. |

04.07.22 | Belting AiC's Dirt in my car got me through some tough times.
GnR's Chinese Democracy, while not a great album, was a really timely album for me since it came out right when I was going through a messy breakup and a lot of the lyrics really hit home. |

04.07.22 | Actually, to add to what I listed above (but somehow forgot), one of the most cathartic and uplifting albums I’ve come across in the last decade is Baroness’s ‘Purple’. |
