You could do worse than check out Systems of Romance by Ultravox (their last LP before the "Midge" era, their first having lost the "!" at the end of their name) - I know it's derivative but I still get a kick out of some of the textures in the tracks. And I've always had a soft spot for John Foxx
Other stuff - some of the Cabs albums around the early 80's are quite melodic in places, s'pose some New Order stuff would come into this category too...
