Has any Prog Rock ever scared the crap out of you

Nope, never.

Right now I'm  listening to the UKZ ep "radiation" from a few years ago and it has a kind of scarey vibe. I remember people saying they weren't too crazy about it and now I know why. IT sounds more like recent KC than classic UK. The vocals are distorted and a bit annoying. Oh well. I guess us collectors have to pay the price so to speak every once in while by having to have pretty much everything in our collection. We just have to accept the fact that not everything is going to be a Close to the Edge or a Selling England. 

Mellotron solo at the end of Strawberry Fields by The Beatles scarred the sh*t out of me when I was a youngin'

So has anyone here heard CURRENT 93's (DOGS BLOOD RISING) album?
It's pretty twisted. It'll scare ya for sure...if your human. ;)

Scariest Rush songs imo:

By tor and the snowdog
The Necromancer
Cygnus X-1
Hemispheres title track(because of the section towards the end)


Porcupine Tree: about the fourth or fifth track in on Stupid Dream there's this weird robot voice. I don't remember the name of the song though.

Yes: Gates of delirium (middle section). Also the ancient(always thought the beginning part was kind of spooky)

Genesis: the waiting room; the knife

PF: much of the studio tracks on ummagumma and parts of the atom heart mother suite

Some Univers Zero stuff scared the crap out of me, fortunately I was also on the toilet at the time so I guess that doesn't count, does it?

Speaking of the Beatles I would add Helter Skelter from the White Album especially the part where it fades and then comes back and Ringo yells "I've got blisters on my fingers"(which for the longest time I always thought was John). Also from the White album I will mention Revolution 9 including the part that seques into it with the "take me back where I came from" part which is technically at the end of Cry Baby Cry. Also, "wild honey pie" which I also thought was very creepy and weird. Not sure what else but there might be some other moments by the Beatles I am forgetting.

Ah yes! Those are all strange, uneasy sequences as well. That Ringo one is pretty freaky. I do remember that.
Boy....the acid minds if the Beatles.

I can't say any music has ever scared me maybe because I really like dark, haunting tunes from time to time. I will say though that I find Comus' First Utterance to be quite disturbing. Not scary but it's the closest thing to fear i've ever heard.

I've never had the crap scared out of me, period.  I've never had  even the tiniest faecal discharge soil my nappy due to fright -- at least that I recall.  That music would actually make people soil their pants in terror is rather odd to me, although I do believe that music can have a laxative effect  The brown note if used on a global scale purportedly has the potential to create an excremental flood of almost biblical proportions.  Has anyone here piddled themselves when looking at an album cover?  Now that I think a reasonable reaction to certain artwork. I think the closest I've come to browning my trousers was while listening to Geddy Lee's shrill singing.  His timbre can be rather bowel moving.

Well I actually thought of something by the Beatles that tops all of those in the creepy/weird/scarey department and it's not even from the White album. I'm referring to that last part that comes after "A day in the life" and is in the groove that ends Sgt. Peppers. Apparently it says "never could see any other way."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaXnqw-Zv0Y

That is creepy. I'm thinking 'The Shinning' where Jack Torrence discovers the rotting dead woman in the bathtub and then she precedes to walk after him. That's what it makes me think of.
Nice work man. Have anymore? Don't mean to sound creedy but these can all really work in a horror setting.
