An Album that always makes you cry

Honestly if the topic was about one song the answer was easy but about a whole album is hard to find for me. So the only sad album I know is this and this particular song when listened to last can make you explode I guess lol:

 
eels' "Electro-Shock Blues"
The Antlers "Hospice"

Not cry from beginning to end, but multiple times throughout. I'd have a longer list of individual songs, because I can remember songs I heard when I found out someone died. Luckily they're not songs in heavy rotation anywhere, so I don't encounter them by accident.
 
Maybe I Want to See the Bright Lights Tonight (Richard & Linda Thompson), an old British Folk-Rock album (1974).

There is two or three "happy" songs (like the eponym song or "The Little Beggar Girl") but the rest of the songs are full of sadness, and/or loneliness and/or bitterness... (you should just try 'The End of the Rainbow" or "The Great Valerio'") 😢

Not an album but I have a serious weakness when ever John Murphy's "Surface of the sun" is used.
Probably because of AMV's from back in the day, or my own personal connection to Sunshine as 2008 wasn't the best time in my life.
When ever it pops up in a trailer, TV show or film it heightens the emotional weight of that scene even if its from an otherwise mediocre production. It's later usage has hijacked the soundtrack's Wikipedia page its so infamously good.
 
man......

i love this one, though i wish they kept the Luv(sic) Part 3 from Modal Soul in here instead of rerecording it. im so used to the version on Modal Soul that Shing's delivery on the hexology version feels wrong to me

Agreed, but it still does what the thread ask for
