What type/genre do you prefer? I could list off a lot, but I'd rather narrow it down.

I like pretty much anything. Not really rap or heavy metal so much, but I'm willing to try anything.

Hmm. It's easier to mention bands than songs, but I can try I guess. xD

-Stadiums and Shrines, by Sunset Rubdown. If you like that song, they have some other great ones.

-Anything by the Arcade Fire.

- The Kill, by the Dresden Dolls. (also Half Jack, The Mouse and the Model, among others)

- NYC, by Interpol

- Skinny Love, by Bon Iver.

- Funeral, by Band of Horses

- Insistor, by Tapes N' Tapes

- First Breath After Coma, by Explosions in the Sky (bit slow, but this is a good example of post rock, which is a neat genre!)

- Satellite, by Guster.

- Angeles, by Elliot Smith (also Roman Candle, A Fond Farewell, King's Crossing, Independence Day, Miss Misery)

- I'll Believe In Anything, by Wolf Parade.

And many more, but that's probably (more than) enough for now. :P
