A recent one that I liked was What I've Done - Transformers it fit perfectly at the end

Just about every song in Donnie Darko fit perfectly.

The Killing Moon - Echo & The Bunny Men (When donnie is riding home on his bike), Head Over Heels - Tears for Fears (when the kids hop off the school bus and walk into school), Proud To Be Loud - Pantera (at the party), Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division (later at the party) and of course Mad World - Gary Jules (at the end).

you see director's cut?

never tear us apart - INXS is what is played in the begginning when donnie is riding home on teh bike, it fits well as well.

Yeh I have the directors cut on DVD, I prefer the music choices in the theatrical cut though.

Scorsese is also pretty good at it.

From Goodfellas 'Rags To Riches' by Tony Bennett and 'Jump Into The Fire' by Harry Nilsson. From The Departed 'I'm Shipping Up To Boston' by the Dropkick Murphys.

they tour America to sold out joints once a year.
They do a 3 month tour and then just kick back for the rest of the year.

Lol, that scene is hilarious. I was a bit disappointed with the film overall, but Bale's monologues were awesome.

Is a soundtrack out there?

I have asked at sanity before and they have no clue which movie i am talking about.
I agree that the songs fit the movie perfectly,Another movie which soundtrack fits the mould is Pulp Fiction

What kind of music store employees wouldn't have heard of Donnie Darko?

Ones that should be sacked

Scorsese is also pretty good at it.

From Goodfellas 'Rags To Riches' by Tony Bennett and 'Jump Into The Fire' by Harry Nilsson. From The Departed 'I'm Shipping Up To Boston' by the Dropkick Murphys.

The coda of 'Layla' playing in the background of a particular montage in Goodfellas was well chosen I thought.

Most of the Kill Bill soundtrack fit beautifully too - however ostentatious it was, it just worked.

And surprised nobody's brought up 'The End' in Apocalypse Now. Not to mention of course 'Ride of the Valkyries'...
