Did you read what the OP was even looking for?

Aside from that Explosions In the Sky is very mellow and melodic. They don't do any singing but they having amazing atmospheric rock. They did most of the soundtrack for Friday Night Lights if you're familiar. Or Radiohead's "Ok Computer" album is a great introduction to that band.

Portishead, the originator of trip-hop, is great to chill to. Check out "Roads".

And my new favorites these days are: My Morning Jacket, teaching us that classic rock mixed with whiskey and weed is never faux pas; Minus the Bear, with catchy pop riffs and punk stylings; and The Raconteurs, busting out classic Jack White rock and roll.

If you're into electronic music, Aphex Twin. Too trippy for me unless im stoned.

Good luck, tell me if you end up liking anything.
