Couldn't find matching thread, so made one myself. So here it goes:
  • Anathema - Violence
  • Deftones - Sleep Walk
  • Isis - Firdous E Bareen
  • Katatonia - Inside the City of Glass
  • Laura - Is There No Help for the Widow's Son?
  • Mogwai - Like Herod
  • Mono - A Speeding Car
  • Oceansize - I Am the Morning
  • Pelican - March to the Sea
  • Red Sparowes - The Soundless Dawn Came Alive As Cities Began to Mark the Horizon
  • Sigur Rós - Mílanó
  • This Will Destroy You - A Three-Legged Workhorse
Kinda post-rockish list :)
 
There, all done. Let's see, hmm...so many to choose, well what the hell..

I'll begin with Katatonia (duuuuh)
Katatonia - Elohim Meth (so depressingly beautiful)
Katatonia - Dancing December
Katatonia - For Funerals to Come (if it counts as a intrumental)
Katatonia - Instrumental (Oh yes)
Katatonia - Inside the City of Glass
Opeth - Patterns in the Ivy
Opeth - Ending Credits
Opeth - Epilogue
Opeth - For Absent Friends
Porcupine Tree - Wedding Nails
Porcupine Tree - Up the Downstair
Porcupine Tree - Tinto Brass
Porcupine Tree - Moonloop
Porcupine Tree - Burning Sky
Porcupine Tree - Oceans Have no Memory
Anathema - Destiny is Dead
Agalloch - Every instrumental on The White EP
Agalloch - Basically every other instrumental they've done
Burzum - Tomhet
Camel - Supertwister
Camel - Lunar Sea
Deathspell Omega - First Prayer
Lifelover - Förspel & Intrång
Lifelover - Avbrott Sex
All instrumentals by Taake

uuhhh..that's enough for now..
 
Off the top of my head, New Order's Elegia, and Porcupine Tree's Navigator and Rainy Taxi come to mind when I think of good instrumental songs from a non-instrumental band. Rather than listing individual songs, I've decided to list some cool instrumental bands and CDs. Keep in mind not all of these are entirely instrumental.

The American Dollar- The Technicolour Sleep and A Memory Stream
Eluvium- Copia
Explosions In The Sky- The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place and All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone
God Is An Astronaut- The End Of The Beginning, All Is Violent, All Is Bright and Far From Refuge
Godspeed You! Black Emperor- F#A#∞
Hammock- Raising Your Voice... Trying To Stop An Echo and Maybe They Will Sing For Us Tomorrow
Helios- Unomia
I Hear Sirens- I Hear Sirens
Lanterna- Elm Street
M83- Digital Shades, Vol. 1 (Also recommended are Before The Dawn Heals Us and Saturdays = Youth; the latter of which is one of the best cds released this year)
Mogwai- Happy Songs For Happy People
Tristeza- A Colores
Ulrich Schnauss- Far Away Trains Passing By
The Workhouse- The End Of The Pier

Hope that helped. I might not have listed individual songs, but hopefully people will read this and check out some of these bands.
 
EUCHARIST - The Eucharist

Metallica - Orion
Metallica - To Live is to Die
Sentenced - The Golden Stream of Lapland
Sentenced - Mourn

Also a good list!
Vincent likes post-rock :p
 
I was listening to Nine Inch Nails-The Downward Spiral today, and I must say "A Warm Place" is one of the most depressing songs I've heard.

Also I'd like to mention Shadows Fall's "Casting Shade," and "Lead Me Home" are really astonishing, and I don't even like that band, but their instrumentals are ace.

Tool-Lost Keys


There are a bunch more, but those came to mind first.
 
The Haunted - Privation of Faith Inc.
The Haunted - Demon Eyes
The Dillinger Escape Plan - When Acting As A Wave
Autechre - Gantz Graf
Autechre - Parhelic Triangle
Bulb - Totla Mad
At the Gates - Into The Dead Sky
Agalloch - A Celebration for the Death of Man...
Boards of Canada - Satellite Anthem Icarus
Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy
Between the Buried and Me - Viridian
Gojira - Unicorn
Sunn O))) & Boris - Etna
Sunn O))) & Boris - N.L.T.
Nine Inch Nails - 23 Ghosts III
Nine Inch Nails - 26 Ghosts III
Nine Inch Nails - The Mark Has Been Made
Russian Circles - Death Rides a Horse
Russian Circles - Harper Lewis

i didn't realise there were so many amazing instrumental tracks.

Yup, they are pretty great. There is another post-rock band with cool name Meanwhile, Back in Communist Russia... - interesting music.

I have two :) One is last.fm/user/Hexabasic my regular one, and this last.fm/user/Abscurat is my new one. The first one is more informative, though.
 
Death - Voice of The Soul (how the shit has no one mentioned this one?)
Daylight Dies - Dismantling Devotion
Katatonia - Instrumental
Riverside - Reality Dream III
Shadows Fall - Casting Shade (I fully agree with BlueSky on them)
 
The only one that I need to mention right now is Metallica - Orion. That was my favorite instrumental song for so long. It's still awesome. I need to go through my music and listen to some stuff though. Oh I also like both Motherfucker = Redeemer songs by GSYBE.
