** The album ''Songs for the Deaf.'' The final 'official' song is [[TitleTrack "Song for the Deaf"]], which features blood-curdling screams buried in the mix and lyrics about paranoia and betrayal. Then there's a few minutes of silence, and [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment then a minute-long version of "Feel Good Hit of the Summer" with the lyrics replaced with laughing.]] And ''then'' comes the unsettling, LyricalDissonance-filled bonus track "Mosquito Song," probably the most nightmarish song in the band's catalogue.

** ''Songs for the Deaf'' was considerably darker than ''Rated R'' and the SelfTitledAlbum. The overall tone is a lot more grim, with songs like "Song for the Dead," "Go With the Flow," and "God is in the Radio" having a dark, ominous sort of groove to them. [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel There's also a song about cannibalism.]]

* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Lullabies To Paralyze'' was this to some extent. It was decidedly darker and more sinister-sounding than the previous three QOTSA albums, no doubt due in part to all the turmoil surrounding Nick Oliveri's firing a year before its release.
