right, er. i dunno. i am just in that kind of mood right now. like i know morrisey does melancholy well but his vocal delivery isn't quite what i'm after for my musical. something like foo fighters - everlong, stuff like that cause i am loving that right now :'(

If you want really melancholy, hook up Eliot Smith.

Otherwise, I would listen to some Arcade Fire or early Modest Mouse
