Bad religion, three days grace, all that remains, system of a down and escape the fate are good bands

I'm trying to find music with an electronica/breakbeat background and a synth lead, no vocal track... That doesn't sound like a difficult request, right? Well then why am I having so much trouble locating bands and soundtracks that have this kind of music?

The youtube video below is a perfect example of the kind of music I'm looking for, my favorite part is at about 0:35... if you guys could tell me what genres I should be looking in or maybe name a few bands that compose this kind of music I'd be eternally grateful... thanks for any help!

It says the parameters are invalid.

Sounds a lot like EBM (dark kind of industrial dance-influenced electronic subgenre) and generic electronica (the subgenre of electronic music where you actually put the 'a' at the end - Chemical Brothers, Crystal Method, etc).

I'm producing a family video. The video is of the husband, wife, and three year old daughter. I've seen the song Dream by Priscilla Ahn used for this and I absolutely LOVE the song. I can't use that song though because the client has already seen that video.

Any suggestions? Soft, upbeat, sweet.

Angels Standing By by Jewel isn't half bad but not really what I want.

Yeah I only included Wire because Gang of Four was mentioned...their sounds are pretty similar to me.

Stumbled apon this forum and thought I'd see if I can get some suggestions for some new music

I don't know if what I listen to now is "emo" don't know much about music at all but I thought I'd try hear first because of what people have said.

Taking Back Sunday
Thursday
Cute is what we Aim For
Bullet for my valentine
Dashboard Confessinal
Alexisonfire
HIM
Rise Against
Silverstien
Underoath
Blink 182

These are some of the bands I like...so if someone wanted to suggest me to some similar bands\songs I'd be thankful.

Sorry if this is in the wrong spot lol.

How about some songs or bands that sound like Electric Feel by MGMT?
