Music for "Tough Times"

Eric Bachmann -- To The Races, has become my new favorite 'sad-bastard' music.

If I'm upset I'm usually angry. So that equates to things most here would never listen to like Uncrowned "Remember Your Ghost", anything by Dope, Tool, Bullet For My Valentine, and so on and so forth. My music selection ranges from Yanni and Sia all the way to the previously listed so don't you judge me. :-D

Peter Gabriel's "Wallflower" was a favorite of mine, and helped through many a trial and when I was feeling particularly and acutely blue. It comes from his album Security, a wonderfully strange and sensational album that plums the depths in exploring a number of topics including musical possession ("The Rhythm of the Heat"), the interface of Native American and "White" American cultures ("San Jacinto) and others. "Wallflower" is a song of courage over oppression, dignity over hypocrisy. Try it on for size when your feeling low....
