The Pessimist by Abysmal Torment on The Misanthrope (2018) samples True Detective S01E01 "The Long Bright Dark " (Cary Joji Fukunaga, 2014):

Intro :
I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware. Nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself - we are creatures that should not exist by natural law... We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, that accretion of sensory experience and feelings, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody's nobody... I think the honorable thing for our species to do is to deny our programming. Stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction - one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.


Outro :
Look, I'd consider myself a realist, all right? But in philosophical terms I'm what's called a pessimist.
