Album of the fucking year.
Heh. I went to its release party and was pretty much blown away. But actually, I appreciate "Ordo Ad Chao" by Mayhem (2007) even more. It recently won the Norwegian Grammy in the Metal category, by the way. It's profoundly different from all previous material from that band.

Had forgotten how stylish Paz's voice sounded like.

I'm not that big on Mayhem. Their "raw" (read: LOL PRUHDOOSERS R 4 FAGOTS) sound kind of grates on my nerves. As far as I'm concerned there's only like 5 bands in the world that can rock the raw and get away with it and all of them are Darkthrone.

I noticed the silent hill 3 soundtrack is on there. I fail to see how <a href=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_eOpM7qQHo>this</a> is dark.
'Cause Akira Yamaoka does dark ambient.

Actually, Mayhem's last two albums are very cleanly produced and fairly progressive, good stuff. Yeah that Ulver rules. I don't recommend listening to it on the way to a funeral like I did.
How about Scott Walker's The Drift for something dark and disturbing?

How about double posts for something dark and disturbing

Look up "The Residents" for their "Hunters" soundtrack. If that doesn't make your girlfriend ditch you for someone else, nothing will.

I wouldn't call it eerie or disturbing, but RJD2's The Horror is pretty cool. Some threatening percussion with old monster movie voice clips mixed and mashed in.

Joy Division had some pretty dark songs (The Kill, The Only Mistake, Dead Souls as good examples). Many of Ian Curtis' lyrics conveyed a haunted soul; and the way he sang them bellowed it out to anyone listening. Of course that showed to be true when he hanged himself the night before thier first USA tour was to begin.
In the aftermath, the remaining band had some pretty dark material even after they transfomed into New Order (The Him, Denial, Blue Monday, Ultraviolence, Thieves Like Us).
Then slowly, over time, their music got lighter and lighter until finally they started sounding as if the actually had some joy in this world.
New Order ended up with some quite-good dance music later; and did a very nice version of Confusion for the "butcher bar" opening scene in the movie Blade.
