Always raining here in London, UK. Rainy days are depressing so it ultimately leads to me putting on depressing music, I don't want to be cheered up lol.

Blueneck - Scars of the Midwest
Laura - Radio Swan is Down
Sigur Ros - Takk (I find this album overall quite sad and depressing but I know this isn't what the band had in mind for this album)
Hammock - Raising Your Voice... (Nice chilled album which I like to listen to as I hear the rain fall)

[defskull]

i listen to whatever I listen to normally.  The weather doesn't usually affect my listening habits.

[Starz]

Saying that, I always listen to depressing music anyway regardless of the weather lol

[lithium]

The Fragile by Nine Inch Nails

Same here.  Although My Dying Bride, Katatonia, Novembers Doom, etc. fit the bill nicely.

Lots of great albums listed there. Remembers me I didn't listen to a quite a few of those in a while. Thanks decapod.

Anways, let me get back to this soon....

Great list. One of my rainy day albums has to be:

Around the Fur

I remember when I was 15 I walked home from my girlfriends house listening to that album on my iPod. And I was walking in the rain. And now every time I hear Lotion or Dai the Flu, I get nostalgic and picture myself walking on that day. I tend to take ATF for a spin when it rains hard.

More rainy day albums:

Radiohead- OK Computer
Incubus - ...A Crow Left of the Murder
Dredg - El Cielo

I'll post up some more later.

Now that it's raining season here, i'm enjoying a lot the Bob Ezrin demos of Deftones - Saturday Night Wrist. Pretty weird album, if it would come to light, i like it a lot.
Also, some Muse is pretty good, the album Five A.M. by Silent, and Chevelle, In Flames, Dillinger Escape Plan (Miss Machine and Irony is a Dead Scene) and some Radiohead. It's what i'm enjoying now.

Sigur Rós – Ágætis Byrjun
Broken Social Scene – Feel Good Lost
Sigur Rós – ( )
Explosions in the Sky – The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place
Radiohead – Amnesiac
Placebo – Without You I'm Nothing
Vessels – White Fields And Open Devices

Yea, those two Sigur Ros albums are perfect for any depressing day.
