Also; I think mentioning Protest the Hero in the context of instrumental music does a HUGE disservice to Rody Walker's vocal talents and lyrics. However as a guitar nerd and PtH fan I approve of their inclusion.
I'm also a fan, I just didn't want to go too nuts with my list because I needed to get to sleep! I'll check out the rest.
Agreed. I honestly mentioned PtH just to mention them and they do have deluxe albums with instrumental only versions which I really appreciate. I often can't work to their music because my brain fills in their vocals for me, which is sometimes too distracting.
I'm also a huge fan of Opeth, Caligula's Horse, and TesseracT with vocals but I haven't ingrained every track's lyrics in my brain like I have PtH.
Can relate 100%. I have audio processing oddities that make understanding lyrics difficult. With how many times I've listened to their albums (1500 times in a row for Palimpsest! I've got the Last.FM receipts for it, even) I know the lyrics mostly by heart. Instead of my brain being distracted trying to comprehend it gets distracted trying to sing along. Thus, instrumental for getting work done.
Also I can't keep my boys Between the Buried and Me out of this post any longer. Suuuuuuuuch a fucking band. The new album rules, too!
Lol, my partner loves BTBAM. I was going to mention them as well.
