Might be 90's, but The Flaming Lips - Morning of the Magicians comes immediately to mind. I assume the time period isn't as important as the general feel.
Also,
The Stone Roses - Waterfall
New Order - True Faith
Duran Duran - Electric Barbarella
Depeche Mode - Policy of Truth (whole Violator album, though a bit darker)
The Cure - Lovesong
The Cure - Close To Me
U2 - Joshua Tree or Achtung Baby albums
REM - Radio Free Europe |

When in Rome - The Promise

A-ha - Take on me
