JAKARTA - Music is known as one of the most encouraging media that anyone can ask for. Even though the world's burden is too heavy for most people, thousands of listeners find entertainment through their favorite artists, offering friends when their life looks gloomy. Although many artists try to make music attractive and passionate, other times, artists get the opposite results to their fans.

When talking about the saddest of all time, thousands of people are automatically interested in the dark side of music. Even though artists like The Cure are heralded as kings of the dark genre, their music is known to be able to raise the spirits of their fans, where Robert Smith talks about his eternal love for his colleagues in songs such as Just Like Heaven and Friday I'm In Love.

The metal world has also been questioned many times about its sad impact on listeners. Although many bands may want to make the most significant music to imagine, sonic darkness often helps eliminate the darkness in their souls, as Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett remembers in Metal Evolution.

"When I feel unwell, I will play a metal album and immediately feel relief," said the milled-haired guitarist.

In a recent study withPPly, listeners want to know which artists make them feel sad. Although the artists best known to raise the enthusiasm of the audience to put people like Ed Sheeran into the pop world, it's not surprising to see a lot of tougher rock music brands put the audience under emotional stress.

The band that was most disappointed and saddened the listeners was Radiohead. Although the big band in the 1990s is famous for producing the most depreciative music of all time over the years, these British rock stars are not even included in the top ten artists who will most likely make the audience sad, thus giving Panic the grand prize! Di Disko.

Although the theatrical rock and roll style performed by Brendon Urie is known to have a fairly optimistic structure in most of the songs, the real key to making the audience feel sad is the lyrics made by the vocalist on top of the rhythm. Even though a song like This Is Gospel has a huge appeal, the story in the middle of the song is quite heartbreaking, with Urie speaking frankly about the previous band members' struggles and wondering if the band will last or not after their wild years.

The same can be said about other participations in the list, My Chemical Romance, which is known for writing songs with the most winning chorus of all time with the background of lyrics about cancer patients dying and murder. Although the lyrics play a role in making the listeners sad, pain can also be put into a song without them knowing it.

While artists like Linkin Park may have created a song as a means of dealing with their pain, the tragic death of band singer Chester Bennington provided a dark sheath around his lyrics, knowing that the vocalist ultimately lost the battle with his demon. Although an artist may write a song with the aim of releasing all his hidden frustration, sadness also comes from an interpretation given by listeners to the song without the knowledge of its creator.
