  • Public Image Ltd. - "Religion I" and "II", "Fodderstompf", "Public Image", and the entire Metal Box album.
  • The Clash - "Sandinista!" certainly qualifies with its weird dubby atmosphere.
  • The Birthday Party- Nick Cave's first band. "Mutiny in Heaven", "Release the Bats", "Sonny's Burning", "The Friend Catcher", "Big Jesus Trash Can", "Happy Birthday", and many, many more.
  • The Fall - "How I Wrote Elastic Man".

  • Joy Division is completely atmospheric and dense in their music, with some seriously haunting lyrics by Ian Curtis.
  • Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - "From Her To Eternity", "Let Love In", and "Henry's Dream".
  • Bauhaus is more than just a goth band. "Terror Couple Kill Colonel" is brilliant, even as it is Ripped From the Headlines. "God In An Alcove" is very ethereal without going too new age-y, and "Spirit" (single version) definitely counts as a CMOA.
    • "Bela Lugosi's Dead" is not just a goth masterpiece, but also a dub masterpiece.
  • Big Audio Dynamite's "This is BAD!"
