I'd post videos but I don't have access to Youtube atm.

Elliott Smith's stuff is usually pretty dark and dreary, but uplifting at the same time. Start out with "Angeles", "Between the Bars", "Angel in the Snow" and "Waltz #2", but in my opinion, all of his work is fucking brilliant and each song has a different feel to it. One of my favorite artists, "depressing" or not.

Damien Jurado has some very depressing stuff. "Sheets" and "Abilene" are both great.

Explosions in the Sky are a great instrumental band. No lyrics in their songs, but each song has a very different feel to it and they are often dark and brooding.
