GeogaddiGeogaddi by Boards of Canada
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $7.18
If strange is your thing (and for me it is), then this is the CD for you. Looking for inspiration to write that horror novel? Here you go. You're welcome.
Black EarthBlack Earth by Bohren & der Club of Gore
Buy new: $16.98 / Used from: $11.17
Ever imagine yourself sitting in a dark, smoke-filled bar when all of a sudden you're propositioned by a beautiful woman to find a missing husband? No? Well at least with this you'd have the soundtrack.
The EraserThe Eraser by Thom Yorke
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $5.53
Intelligent lyrics + intelligent music = fascinating ideas.
Real GoneReal Gone by Tom Waits
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $8.47
The leader in out of this world blues, Tom Waits is one of the reasons why music is worth listening to.
When It FallsWhen It Falls by Zero 7
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $4.99
Very melancholy CD that really feels right listening to when you're on the verge of sleep, or when you're in that realm between awake and dreams.
Blue Wonder Power MilkBlue Wonder Power Milk by Hooverphonic
Buy used from: $2.37
Like Zero 7, only electronic. Very much worth your time.
The Black EPThe Black EP by Interpol
Buy new: $16.49 / Used from: $6.70
Nice live recording in a really cool environment. Almost as if you're in a strange bar listening to a strange band.
DamnationDamnation by Opeth
Buy new: $17.98 / Used from: $9.27
Might seem out of place, but Opeth, who usually does death-metalesque albums, put out this rather sedated album that belongs to the night (sorry if that's cliche). Trust me when I say that this is something that'll fit right in.
The Virgin Suicides: Original Motion Picture ScoreThe Virgin Suicides: Original Motion Picture Score
Buy new: $16.98 / Used from: $2.54
With the song "Playground Love" accompanied by a straight instrumental/electronic record, this is more a stand-alone album than a soundtrack. It's beautiful.
