The soundtrack to Lost Highway is one of my top albums, all categories. Equally as fascinating, weird, violent and beautiful as the film itself. The tracks are masterfully sequenced, often blend into each other and form a complete work in itself.
It has long been my testbed for gapless playback on various hardware and software, often to my disappointment. (I'm not sure the experience is even available on streaming platforms, where things are normally playlists of disparate blobs of data, where perhaps "this track is not available in your region".)

As well as soundtracks, Lynch is a huge figure in sound design
generally. He is a pioneer and master of several techniques that have
entered the standard repertoire now, like foreshadowing, looming, use of
rhythmic leitmotifs. A very creative pioneer. Will be missed. RIP.

To me that was his movie that made most sense. It seems a perfect allegorical depiction of what it means to have bad conscience.
And, I grew up watching Lynch's Dune over and over until it made sense :P
