The Bends, 1995 Album by Radiohead

Deathlike Silence (Finnish heavy metal band)
Deathlike Silence is a metal band from Finland, usually referred to as “gravedigger metal.” I, however, prefer to call them “horror metal” as their lyrics tend to be horror-based, much like the lyrics of the old-school horror punk band, the Misfits.
