>Music which would technically be unskillful would be angry music
Actually I've found that whenever I'm depressing stuff like black metal relax me a whole lot. Noise, shoegaze and the heavier types of music produce a type of oversaturation of the senses which leads can leave the listener in a pretty restful state of mind; after all shoegaze started as a sort of "humble" music movement which made the artists blend in with the background (i.e. they ended looking like they were gazing at their shoes), by way of its wall-like sound.

I do agree music is kind of bringing a gun to a knife fight when it comes to experience though, it just manipulates the listener subconsciouly in a way almost no other artform does.
