* NightmareFuel: Much of their output is nightmarish, particularly their 1974-1977 demo tape released in the '80s, ''Mix-Up'' through ''2X45'', and even some of ''The Crackdown''. For examples from specific albums...
** From their demo tape from the '70s, we have ooraseal, an unsettling 5 minute track that sounds like something out of a sleep paralysis episode... In fact, the entire tape is consistent nightmare fuel, each track sounding just as paranoia inducing as the next.
** On the Mix Up, there's 'Kirilian Photograph', 'Fourth Shot', and 'Heaven and Hell', with the jarring synthesizers and Mallinder's distorted screaming adding into the mix feeling like something out of a nightmare.
** Voice of America has even more of it, with 'Voice of America', an atmospheric piece that sounds almost post-apocalyptic, Partially Submerged, a claustrophobic instrumental piece, Premonition, a strange nightmarish track that sounds 'Metallic', and the best for last, 'This is Entertainment', a song about technophobia, whose lyrics are unsettling, to say the least...
*** The Original Voice of America from the Attic Tapes compilation sounds like something about a bad dream, making it even worse than the released version.
*** Even worse is the music video released on their Doublevision tape. Featuring nothing but a ZX Spectrum vomiting creepy text crawl as the music drones on.
** On their 'Nag Nag Nag' single, the B-Side 'Is that Me Finding Someone at the Door Again' is a terrifying Musique concrete piece that has warped voices, weird electronic noises, and strange chanting that only gets louder and louder. The last place you'd want to ever hear it is in the dead of the night.
** Red Mecca is probably the least scariest album from their Industrial Era (Taking a more funky post-punk appeal), but the odd cover of 'A Touch Of Evil' feels sparse and rather sinister compared to the other songs on the record. Of a similar degree of Nightmare Fuel is the 10 minute dirge of "A Thousand Ways", which ends with a rather unsettling note.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULsDgv-ZCYg Diffusion]] is probably the belle of the ball in this regard: from the [[LaughingMad Creepy laugh sample]], the violin scratching noises, and the barely intelligible lyrics which seem to have something to do with someone getting kidnapped and having no memory of how he got there. Even the video is like some kind of fever dream or bad trip.
