I'm sure you do. However, what you hear as a dark sound someone
else can very well hear as a bright sound. So the dark sound that
you are hearing is not constant from listener to listener. And
that failure make the term worse than useless.

The purpose of a word to describe a phenomenone should, in
principle, be defined the same for everyone.

Perhaps we should apply the definition of pornography. I can't
define
dark sound but I know when I play (hear) it.
