David Dondero - Live At The Hemlock

Once upon a time, Bob Dylan was accused of writing depressing lyrics, and while he did occasionally express existential angst in his writing, his music always sounded uplifting. David Dondero's death-obsessed lyrics make Dylan's pessimism seem like a picnic in the park on a lovely spring afternoon. If the lyrics of "Living and the Dead" and "Ashes on the Highway" don't convince one that tomorrow will be even blacker than today, then Dondero and his band's musical accompaniment will. This isn't necessarily a criticism: Dondero obviously has heavy things on his mind and sees no reason to sugarcoat it.
