The entire record _Black One_ by Sunn 0))). Droning, clanky, thundering slow-motion sort-of metal with terrifying vocals.

Just listen to track two and see if you don’t [have to change your shorts.](http://music.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?z=y&EAN=808720005028&itm=1)

“Bela Lugosi’s Dead” (Bauhaus), while not satanic per se, is still pretty creepy.  
[/QUOTE]

Yeah, but not as creepy as some of their others, IMO. I think Rosegarden Funeral of Sores is creepiest.  
Interesting, I was looking it up and it looks like John Cale covered it. Now there’s a guy that I bet has made some good creepy music. I haven’t heard any of his solo stuff, so I wouldn’t know for sure.  
Any John Cale fans wanna weigh in?

_Wild Women With Steak Knives_ by Diamanda Galas

[/QUOTE]

I once played “Wild Women With Steak Knives” on my radio show. I probably set a record for radios being turned off around the tri-state area. Fuck 'em if they can’t take a little screaming after an Enya set.

“Get Out Of My House” by Kate Bush is pretty creepy-freaky. Needless to say, it’s one of my favorite songs by her (and it is on my all-time favorite album by anybody, **The Dreaming** ).

Happy Rhodes has a lot of downright creepy songs, but no one ever believes me. It’s her name man…she’s like a 500lb man who’s called “Tiny.”

Since this has been resurected, and as I notice the mention of accordians in the OP, I’ll mention the Tiger Lillies. Not quite satanic, just deeply, deeply warped. And ok, a bit satanic. And definatly do evil things with accordians.

Honestly the correct answer is [The soundtrack for Suspiria by Goblin](http://www.amazon.com/Suspiria-Complete-Original-Picture-Soundtrack/dp/B00004Y801) which creeped me out so much in 1977 that I took people to showings just to listen to the music. Chemically enhanced it was truly frightening.
