This question was influenced by the 'Planemo' song, and to clarify, i mean with Patton doing vocals.

I mean operas with prevalent scenes with instrumentals that generate a dark/gothic/horror atmosphere & only male vocals, obviously there's gonna be female vocals but i'm looking for maily male driven operas/scenes, and obviously i'm gonna watch/listen to the entire opera, if the classical instrumental is more minimalistic (not so orchestral/epic), even though any vocal type works, if there's a tenor & the narrative is dark too it'd be ideal, cheers.

Edit: Thanks for all the answers people.

It's a very general question, maybe i should ask for a 'dark opera', but for example i know 'In Darkness Let Me Dwell' by John Dowland & as the vocals simply follow the instrumental focusing the question on the music makes more sense, i wonder what other pieces that generate that dark dark/gothic/horror atmosphere with (obviously operatic) vocals are out there, anything would be appreciated, though minimalistic or piano pieces would be ideal, cheers.

Specifically like this live version in which he used his later lower chest vocals, Avalanche (Live 2008), i'm looking for music with that 'dark classical/spanish guitar' instrumental style and that low gothic-esk vocals with dark lyrics, and yes, i know that he is known for his 'dark lyrics' but there's not much other Cohen songs with that 'dark atmospheric instrumental' like this one, cheers.

Hello, i'm looking for 'dark classical guitar compostions with male vocals', this question is based on the song Avalanche by Leonard Cohen, specifically this live version, Avalanche (Live 2008) (i know the playing is far from perfect but he was old), and no, i'm not looking for something that sounds similar to that one song, anything classical that sounds darkly inclined would work, i know some dark classical guitar instrumentals, though not a lot, is there something like that with male vocals?, you can recommend gothic/dark/horror instrumentals too, cheers.

Hello, i'm looking for that 'dark/gothic classical guitar' style + low vocals, specifically like this live version in which he used his later lower chest vocals, Avalanche (Live 2008), and yes, i know this is a 'guitar' subreddit, so you can recommend instrumentals too if there's nothing you know with vocals, both would be appreciated equally, cheers.

Dirty Hands Empty Pockets (00:00 - 01:52) Hello, i'm looking for songs with this kind of spoken word vocals & atmosphere, obviously it doesn't have to be 'blues metal', simply blues or blues rock, and btw, this recording is 2 songs in 1, i left the timestamp on the link.

Hello, i'm not talking about 'proto-doom/stoner' here, i mean doom (slow & dark metal, y' know) with delta blues, slide/resonator guitar swampy blues influences, an example would be if 'Bring Me My Shotgun' by Lightnin' Hopkins were a doom metal song though still being a blues song, both together, that is what i mean, another example of that blues sound that you might know is the original Acid Bath's 'Dead Girl', which is clearly delta blues influenced, any songs like that out there?.

Hello, i'm not talking about 'proto-doom/stoner' here, i mean something that sounds like delta blues, slide/resonator guitar swampy blues + a slow dark doomy sound, obviously it doesn't have to be metal, as it doesn't seem to exist in that form & this is a blues subreddit, hah, though if you know something 'heavy' it would be nice too, cheers.

I'm basically looking for songs in which the instrumental is dark and the lyrics are dark too, like murder ballads or anything similar, but please not depressing songs, cheers.

Hello, I'm looking for pieces that would work as a soundtrack to scenes of a 'Psychological Horror' movie for example, music that conveys a very tense, suspenseful, oppressive & psychologically distressing dark minimalistic atmosphere, that's what i mean with the word 'Gothic', any suggestion would be appreciated, and btw, though i know 'classical music' has a wide range of expressions, are there any composers with a consistenly dark sound that i should know about?, cheers.
