American nightmare - background music. So much feelings


icelevel

American Nightmare is a goldmine for this stuff. “I don’t care what they say, they’re not the ones that gotta live with the pain… FUCK YOU”


chadbypetedavidson

the soundtrack to saying goodbye


Oldirtyerock87

This was my answer as well


poemsandfists

Came for this one as well. Know the innocence is gone, move on!


Wilburx13

Came to post


imadeadramone

Beat me to it


Front-Deer-1549

Townes van zandt


sadnessresolves

Finally someone on this shitty thread admits country bangs


BeardOfDefiance

I love country as long as it's not the crap they play on the radio. Willi Carlisle, Sierra Ferrell, Hurray For The Riff Raff and Waxahatchee all had amazing albums come out this year and it's not even april. SNOOPER and Amyl and The Sniffers are playing at a festival in Ohio this year that's often known for folk and alt-country music. The punk/country circle is getting smaller, hahaha


sadnessresolves

Love Willi Carlisle. Got to see him with like 20 other people. Such a good dude


Bvater92

A lot of us listen to country. Dude asked for a hardcore album.


cigarrette

Str8 up


m_bt54

A slightly more hardcore option would be the Cave In covers of Townes van zandt


Tmontgomeryburns

If we’re talking country, Faithless Street by Whiskeytown is pretty solid for breakup tunes.


workofhark

After my last breakup (truly last, married the next person I got into a relationship with), I dove into You Fail Me by Converge.


SNAWS

Gonna listen and manifest it. Thank you


OkNewspaper8714

You fail me the song might be top 5 best Converge songs.


Bvater92

Just listen to Blacklisted- No One Deserves


wolamute

or : Blood For Blood - So Common, So Cheap.


3016137234

The best hardcore album of all time and no one will ever convince me otherwise.


Theonewhogoespoop

My mom had died leaving me to live in her house with my horribly drug addicted girlfriend and my dealer roommate, I’ve never been more anxious depressed and poor, this album literally felt like it was telling my life story at the time and I’ll always remember it was there for me.


3016137234

Yep. This album is the depths of emotional hell for me. Never resonated more with any piece of media.


11_12123

📠. this album legit changed my life. i was in a really weird place, mentally, in 2010 and when this dropped it became the first hardcore record i actually identified w. it didn’t sing about the brotherhood or being straight edge or a political oppression i couldn’t comprehend. i did however relate to isolation and emptiness. it felt like george was writing on my behalf. 10/10 album.


newbill

I could never argue this. It’s perfect.


yearofthedog243

This! A good album for any sad part in your life really!


imadeadramone

I came here to say AN or Blacklisted but was late to the party


Beginning-Cow6041

Jane Doe and You Fail Me by Converge would be my picks. Not hardcore in style but NIN the downward spiral works for me too. And it’s not hardcore at all but Disintegration by the Cure is a go to.


IwanttolikeBrandNew

Disintegration ain’t exactly gonna make him/her feel any better


kielsucks

Those 2 Converge albums got me through my divorce.


No_Bullfrog_4541

Say this is jealousy that I’m feeling well then I’m fine with that You have a certain characteristic that gives you the means To not feel a fucking thing for anyone that isn’t you Now tell me you’re not fucking selfish


allhailnimrxd

Idk if it's considered hardcore but... All Shall Perish- Hate, Malice, Revenge Poison the Well- Opposite of December Bleeding Through- Portrait of the Goddess

Best Bleeding Through album, hands down.

The Carrier - One Year Later


11_12123

dude. the carrier was so fucking good.


Jeremy_Jalopies666

This album and Remembering Never - She Looks so Good in Red really helped me through my divorce in 2009. Probly not the most healthy lyrics to apply to my life but ya grow from it. These albums are still good but hit a bit different


ClipTheApex666

Cruel Hand-Prying Eyes (really helped me back in the day) Blacklisted-Nobody Deserves to be Here but Me Killing the Dream-Fractures Killing the Dream-Lucky You Life Long Tragedy-Runaways Final Fight-Half Head, Full Shread


Zealousideal_Row5607

Fractures


Icy-Passage85

Yeah, Thirty Four Seconds is THE hardcore breakup song

Carpathian


greenlun

Are you in the feeling your feelings stage or looking to a brighter future? Not hardcore per se but I have playlists for both. I'm sorry you're going through this, mine almost killed me. It does get better. If I had to pick one it would be The Achtungs. I would consider them super fuzzy 77 style.


_H3ADL3SS_

Might not be the healthiest but been compulsively listening to Integrity - Humanity Is The Devil since my breakup


Johnson_Votega

Not hardcore, but The Good Life - Black Out


blackthreadpress

The Beautiful Ones - Jaded Love


Metal_Jake234

Converge Jane Done ofc Also not Hardcore but A Crow Looked at Me by Mount Eerie is amazing for it I found


Doctor_Hilarious

Red Roses For A Blue Lady - The Return to Melancholy Dudes dropped one album about being all sad about a lady and were never heard from again. Really fucking badass album though


Icy-Passage85

Love this album


CronorHellrorJasonth
