The Wake - Here Comes Everybody + Singles

Sentimental, non-threatening synth-pop, but as dour as that sounds, it's actually very unlike anything else that came out during the era. In fact, this is one of my favorite albums to come out of the eighties, and the DIY vibe this one gives off (it's very rough around the edges at some points) only adds to the melancholy, romantic-life-in-shambles charm of it. Check it out.
