Yeah, that is one of my favorite sad albums, though Kozelek's Sun Kil Moon albums are even better. He's a genius.

try life-affirming bands such as the National, the Constantines, Joy Division, the Arcade Fire. They can chill you when you are low. Also, Low. The Wall by Pinkie yo check dat

I knew someone would say that, but then they qualify for the sad music being sought after. I didn't say happy, I said life-affirming. Big difference I believe. "Ceremony" makes me wanna dance in the streets, but it's also kinda sad. Anyways, happy music can be the saddest sound in the world

I'm not sure what all you're familiar with, but J. Tillman is definitely a fave sad indie artist of mine. His new album is a bit more fleshed out and upbeat if the songs I've heard are anything to judge by, but his first 4 albums, all released since 2005, are amazing. Also, Liz Durrett is another one whose music is at least as dark-sounding as it is sad. She's got a new one that just came out and I've yet to listen to, but 2006's The Mezzanine is some great dark folk music. I'll add some more recommendations later if you want.
