Fall of Empyrean - The Catatonic
Anathema - Are You There?
Ulver - Porn Piece or the Scars of Cold Kisses

Holy shit. I'm glad I remembered that song. Everyone here needs to go listen to Ulver's Svidd Neger. Wildcat is such a hauntingly beautiful song.

Smashing Pumpkins entire Machina album is amazing, Stand Inside your Love (ebow solo!) is a highlight. Thirty three, 1979 (I'm comfortable in saying the greatest song ever recorded), and Melon Collie and the Infinite Sadness all off the album of the same name.

 

[The Wretched]

Anything Duncan Patterson ever composed for Anathema (specially the songs from Alternative 4 such as Lost Control)

Anything Duncan Patterson ever composed for Antimatter

Katatonia (I am nothing, Tonights Music, Gone, Last Resort etc)

Some Murder Ballads by Nick Cave ;p

From Hell Soundtrack (pure genius)

Albinoni's Adagio in G minor

Death Cab for Cutie (Tiny Vessels, What Sarah Said)

Left (a post rock band,I cant remember the name of the album,but it works as one song)

Sentenced - No one there, Blood and Tears etc

Damien Rice - Cold Water,Blowers Daughter etc (it reminds me of the girl I loved)
