Alice In Chains - Dirt
The Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs
Queens of the Stone Age - Rated R and Like Clockwork… (top 2 for me right now)
Also:
AWOLNATION - Megalithic Symphony
Foster the People - Torches
Them Crooked Vultures - Self titled
One of my favorite has to be: Delain - April Rain (the album, not just the song)
Without knowing your music taste I’ll say some with more broad appeal:
Third Eye Blind - self-titled
Deftones - White Pony
Boards of Canada - Geogaddi
Radiohead - Kid A
The Shins - Chutes Too Narrow
Hozier’s Unreal Unearth
Against Me - Reinventing Axl Rose
Bouncing Souls - Anchors Aweigh
Propagandhi - Supporting Caste
Touché Amore - Stage Four
Bomb The Music Industry - Vacation
The Cure - Paris
Paris is so good.
Pornography is also amazing.
Soviet Kitsch - Regina Spektor
A few off the top of my head:
Destiny Potato - Lun
Dream Theater - Scenes from a Memory
A Perfect Circle - Mer de Noms
Theatre of Tragedy - Aegis“Deadache” by Lordi ! I wouldn’t say it has their best songs, but it doesn’t have any definite “B-sides”, unlike most of their previous work.
( eg : is Hellbender Turbulence anyone’s favorite ? Dynamite Tonite ? I doubt that. Get Heavy is a much rockier listening experience. Some may even say it’s heavily front loaded.
Deadache has a bit of a slump in the middle but it’s picked right back up by the final third, especially the titular song and Raise Hell in Heaven )
Morphine - Good
Nujabes - Modal Soul
Leftover Crack - Fuck World Trade
The Mars Volta - Frances the Mute
Big KRIT - 4eva is a Mighty Long Time
No particular order but that’s probably my current top 5
Bruh you got left over crack but no choking victim?
Achtung Baby - U2
Here’s a big eclectic mix of
Transatlanticism by Deathcab for Cutie
Time Out by the Dave Brubeck Quartet
Cubafrica by Manu Dibango
E MO TION: Side B by Carly Rae Jepsen
Home is Where Your Heart Was by Plej
Vampire Weekend by Vampire Weekend
Left and Leaving by The Weakerthans

Tarot - æther realm Hellbilly Dulux - Rob Zombie And if you want to try a band that is a bit more upbeat, check out this one. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
Octopath Traveler II OST by Yasunori Nishiki.
I’m not sure if you were looking only for bands or music with lyrics, but this is probably my favorite video game soundtrack of all time.
Samples:
Thanks for the samples! Those are good. That game also looks really interesting. I’ve only heard of octodad.
