Albums:

Emarosa - Relativity (creates a nice visual)
A Skylit Drive - Adelphia (the keys are wonderful to sleep to)
Ocean Is Theory - In My Blood Again (OMGOMGOMG)

It's probably the best song to fall asleep to. I remember once I put that on repeat for a whole night. I remember hearing someone say "let's get engaged in California" in a dream.

Brand New- Play Crack The Sky

i listened to that every night before i went to sleep for like two months. Anyway, i used to like anything by sufjan (mostly the michigan album though) and I Want to Know Your Plans by Say Anything. Jens Lekman, some M. Ward, and death cab aren't bad for sleep either.
