Please list albums not just bands...

Do not say any Opeth or Savatage

Preferably a dark, depressing sound to it. Feel free to list non-metal too.
 
As soon as I saw the topic name:
The Fractured Dimension - Towards the Mysterium
It's some kind of progressive, avant-garde piano based music with lots of guest guitarists such as Ron Jarzombek. Some parts are non-metal, some are not non-metal... :)
Their MySpace Page
All the songs on there are old mixes of stuff from their album.
May not fit the description you gave perfectly, but definately give them a try.
 
Akphaezya - Anthology II
unexpecT - In a Flesh Aquarium (Ya, I know, I'm annoying with these two band, but it's only because they fit in all these recommandation threads!)

5uu's - Abondonship (non-metal)
Arturus - The Sham Mirror
Morgul - Sketch of a supposed Murderer (Your best gest, it is dark and depressing)
Katzenjammer Kabarett - Katzenjammer Kabarett (non-metal, Death rock)
Tub Ring - The Great Filter (non-metal)

It makes me think of some Rock in opposition bands like 5uu's or Thinking Plague. Very interesting stuff :loco:
 
Elton John

I actually like Elton John a good bit.

Akphaezya - Anthology II
unexpecT - In a Flesh Aquarium (Ya, I know, I'm annoying with these two band, but it's only because they fit in all these recommandation threads!)

5uu's - Abondonship (non-metal)

Morgul - Sketch of a supposed Murderer (Your best gest, it is dark and depressing)
Katzenjammer Kabarett - Katzenjammer Kabarett (non-metal, Death rock)
Tub Ring - The Great Filter (non-metal)

So far the Morgul is spot on. Good Stuff.
 
Mystic Forest - Romances
Mirrorthrone - Carriers Of Dust
Nokturnal Mortum - Goat Horns (though I figure you should know this)
 
I know you asked for dark and depressive but the intro to Cradle Of Filth's Swansong For A Raven has a cool piano part.

Other than that, Thy Light has a piano instrumental. It's pretty cool.
