Nah, I'll probably stick around, this seems like a good community for finding specific styles. I'll just make sure I post these in the right place next time. I wasn't sure, really, but couldnt find anything better. Chiodos came up on my searches and I tried them. I don't think it's what I'm looking for.

Lower Definition and Emarosa were pretty close hits for me recently. Circle Takes Square seems good to me, but I can't seem to adjust to the vocals. The guys sound like they're 13 or something. But the music is good.

Downtown Battle Mountain by Dance Gavin Dance is ok. It's not my favorite, but it's not the worst. They appear to have variability in their style from one album to the next.

Oh, and what happened with Fall of Troys Manipulator album, it's so weak and has no aggression. I re listened to it the other day, it's such a stylistic departure...

Anyway, if that helps, I'm still interested in more ideas.
I'm not more than vaguely familiar with Fall of Troy, but from what I heard, their instrumentation sounded like Nuclear Rabbit's. You can hear some of their work on the fan site at nuclearrabbit.co.uk .... they have a little streaming radio thing...

Jump in anywhere, I'd say, if you're trying to get a sample. I enjoy most every track. These guys are weird, though.
