Ok so after listening to the majority of the songs mentioned in this thread here's my 2 most creeped out chill inducing. The first which I will never listen to in the dark alone is Dillinger Esacep Plan-Come to Daddy. I near wept at the scariness of that. For creepiness in lyrics and vocal style Violent Femmes-Country Death Song wins. At the moment when he pushes his daughter into the well my entire body tingles because it invokes such a gruesome scene.

Oh yeah BTW... I cant believe songs by old-school horror-punk bands like the Misfits (Last Caress anyone?) haven't been mentioned.

In that same vein, The Independents - Bloody Night, Bloody Knife comes to mind. It's a fun, upbeat, ska-punk song.... about kidnapping the prom queen, and killing her, making her, thus, forever yours.

Ozzy - Mr. Tinkertrain, the song has some disturbing lyrics, but the begining of the song is what gets me

Anything ICP can be disturbing too.

A cover Metallica did, So What, but I don't know the original artist (especially the line, I fucked a goat So What)

paddyjoe

Two come to mind:

D.O.A. .............Bloodrock

Careful with That Axe, Eugene .......Pink Floyd

i will throw in Disturbed - Get Down with the Sickness.
the whole part about the daddy is kind of eh off.
if you translate Rammsteins lyrics they have some really sick things in their songs
also eleanor brigsby always got me too something about dying alone and no one giving a shit has a creepyness to it

Yes! It's disturbing AND funny!

So there I am listening to Bambi go on about how she can make all my dreams come true. And I say, "Oh yeah? Even the one I have where Jesus Christ is jackhammering Mickey Mouse in the doodoo hole with a lawn dart while Garth Brooks gives birth to something resembling a cheddar cheese log with almonds on Santa's tummy-tum?"

or

Day or so had passed when I popped the clutch, gave the tranny a spin, and slid on into The Stinky Pinky Gulp N' Guzzle Big Rig Snooze-A-Stop. There I was browsin' through the latest issue of Throb, when I saw Bambi starin' at me from the back of a milk carton. Well, my heart just dropped. So, I decided to do what any good Christian would. You cannot imagine how difficult it is to hold a half gallon of moo juice and polish the one-eyed gopher when you're doin' seventy-five in an eighteen-wheeler. I never thought missing children could be so sexy. Did I say that out loud?

so maybe you're right, and these are creepy songs. but i dont' think so. :] i guess maybe i've heard them so much that i'm just used to them, and i don't findy anything even slightly creepy about the musical style implemented in either of them. also, i see different things behind them than just what they are literally saying. for example: "rape me" is referring not specifically to nonconsentual sex but to the way the media fucks people over on a daily basis and largely influences the fate of many of the things they cover (ok, i guess this one maybe is a little creepy). as for "down with the sickness," it just sounds to me like they're <I>trying</I> to be creepy to create a certain image for themselves, and for me that doesn't work. and possum kingdom... i think i just love that song so much that its difficult for me to find it disturbing in any way.

The start of Flood on Undertow by tool is kinda creepy, but i find it almost forboeding, the way the wall of noise seems to advance
