Instrumental songs

Recommended Posts

Alright, so I am looking for an instrumental song, as in, with out any lyrics. It's a little project for school we bring in a song and everyone plays there song we take turns. So the theme is instrumental this time and so far everyone has taken classical. I refuse to take classical but so far the only song I can think of is Sandstorm, which I may end up using. Anyone have any other ideas? Thanks a lot

Anything off of Paul Gilbert's albums Get Out Of My Yard or Silence Followed By A Deafening Roar

Dream Theater's Stream Of Consciousness or Instrumeledy

Anything by Liquid Tension Experiment and Explosions In The Sky

Rush's YYZ

The list can keep going, just somethings that I would consider using.

There are tons of non-classical instrumental songs. Joe Satriani ring a bell? He's just one of dozens of folks that put out songs sans lyrics.

Satch boogie is probably my favorite, summer song is a decent choice as well. Eric Johnson also has a good variety of styles of tunes as well.

Anything by Ennio Morricone, amazing composer who created scores for well over 500 Westerns. His work sounds amazing and one great track can be heard as the opener on Metallica's S&M CD.

Sigur Ros; are a band from Iceland that produce music like no other. I have heard one fan, say of their music. "They are the 1st band to bridge the gap between music and emotion." I like that description allot.

Dream Theater's Stream of Consciousness is amazing. So is Dance of Eternity.

Liquid Tension Experiment (basically the dream theater guys with other artists thrown in there) is all instrumental and they are absolutely SICK.

Explosions in the Sky (they did the soundtrack for Friday Night Lights) is amazing as well.

-"August Rush" is a cool soundtrack and if I remember correctly is all instrumental.

-Moby's numbers in "Southland Tales" were cool if you are into Alternative.

-There was also the music score to "Miracle" released.

Beastie Boys have some call instrumentals, I think the album was called 'in sounds from way out' which was all their instrumental songs.

Also, you can't go wrong with the Fight Club soundtrack either.
