Fuckin' awesomely depressing stuff.
And, probably the most depressing thing you can find, but SO beautiful at the same time:

circa 1986- saw Tex And the Horseheads at an LA goth/punk/glam club called Scream
in the club I came up to Tex (the girl) and complimented the show. She asked if she could have a drink from my beer( can of Budweiser) I said sure..most of it was gone when I got the can back....

2 youtube quotes about Tex and the Horseheads-
Hard to find stuff on them because they were EXTREMELY strung out on H according to Slash's autobiography

Sitting in a chair behind her one day I started to focus in on her giant hair. I said hold still somethings stuck in there. It was a broken christmas tree ornament, we both started laughing because it was almost a month since christmas.

I meant to say it earlier but just wanted to thank mors & Deuce for Page 15 of this thread. I'm liking quite a few of the ones you guys posted, purchased Pelican's City of Echoes album as well as Ganon's As Above, So Below. I really like that kind of sound, though hate the guttural screaming that usually comes with it. That combined with the fact that a lot of those songs are perfect instrumentals for what I do with my NCAA highlight videos; expect to see me use some of them in the future.
Awesome man! Glad I could move their music to someone else.
Another band you should check out, if you haven't heard of them, is Explosions In The Sky. They did the soundtrack for Friday Night Lights (the whole soundtrack for the movie and a song or two for the TV show) and they are PHENOMENAL instrumental music, with the occasional spoken word.
This is one of my personal favorites, the crescendos in this song are epic.

I've heard of them but only from their Versus commercial which used First Breath After Coma. I've never really checked them out but will be sure to do so now. Generally I purchase albums instead of individual songs, any album you would suggest I start with?
This is the commercial, great commercial.

The album that song is off of (The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place) is, by far, their best album (though I haven't listened to their newest album that just came out this year yet). Though, their soundtrack from the Friday Night Lights movie is pretty damn good too, though probably not very good for football video creation.
I'm not a fan of the 'cookie monster' vocals either. For some reason it doesn't bother me with certain bands though (Gojira, Cult Of Luna, Isis, and Ganon)
Post rock/metal is probably my favorite genre...or anything instrumental. Bands like Mogwai, Explosions in the Sky (new album is great BTW), If These Trees Could Talk, Mono, Saxon Shore. There are also a lot of mellow bands I dig that are instrumental as well. Tristeza, the Six Parts Seven, Lanterna, and The Album Leaf...to name a few.

If These Trees Could Talk
Ok, my latest purchase is Of Frost and War which is a 2008 release by Hail of Bullets. I'm not quite sure why it took me so long to grab this CD. I saw these guys at the Maryland Deathfest in 2009 and spent quite a bit of time drinking beer with, and talking to, singer Martin van Drunen (formerly of Pestilence). His other band, Asphyx, also performed over the 3 days and both Asphyx and Hail of Bullets were really good. The album, Of Frost and War, is entirely about the Eastern Front of the European Theater in WWII which I can never get too much of. That makes it even more odd that it took me so long to get around to picking it up.
Anyway, even though 98% of you will hate it, here is Red Wolves of Stalin.
