Mostly dark gothic music like The Cure with better vocals or David Bowie. Stuff like that. I need it for the soundtrack of the story because Isamu is going to be thinking about songs that remind him of other situations from his life.

"Charlotte Sometimes" by The Cure is dark and incredibly obscure. I always listened to it when I felt all angst-y.

Isamu loves the wall and Souxie and the Banshees. He also is into Cocteau Twins, Dead can Dance and other stuff I like.

Depends on what you're looking for. I love the Smiths, but they're mostly sick pathetic funny dark. If you name a specific theme, I can name a more appropriate song by them. "Girlfriend in a coma." Or "Hairdresser on Fire". Or . . . Oh, there are just so many to choose from.
Hmm. Tones on Tail - really obscure. Dali's Car - even more obscure. Bauhaus - very very dark, as in Bela Lagosi's Dead. Japan. Oh, really, absolutely anything from the 80s that I listened to would do.
What about Depeche Mode's Blasphemous Rumours?
So. Tell us the theme and we can get even more specific.

My God, people! Someone asks for help identifying '80s Goth music and no one jumps all over this? Sheesh!
There were some really seminal gloomy '80s bands, and a number of them are quite mainstream. I'll list the more mainstream ones here.
Depeche Mode The Smiths Fields of the Nephilim Dead Can Dance Bauhaus Ministry The Cure Christian Death Joy Division The Swans Southern Death Cult Gene Loves Jezebel Theatre of Hate Legendary Pink Dots Cowboy Junkies Sisters of Mercy Concrete Blonde Souxsie Sioux and the Banshees Sex Gang Children Cocteau Twins

Ooo. Great. A lot of that is stuff I like... I gave my character too many of my musical tastes. He's a rather dark young man who when he was a teen spent a lot of time smoking and listening to music like this.
