If you want some good ass post-punk I'll throw in a rec for Television's Marquee Moon. Everyone kept telling me how great it was and I finally got around to it a week or so ago, and it totally rocked my socks off.
I don't mind the depressing gimmick (Nirvana's one of my all-time favorite bands) but the album didn't need it.

I'll give Television a listen.
