I need some cool songs!?

I'm looking for some really cool music that would go good with an amv. Something similar to celldweller- against the tide. The sing starts off slow and sad then gets really cool. I don't want the screamy sound though. No screams. It would be best if it was by a not so popular band. Inspiring, actiony, sad at beginning-ish, and no screams are the traits I am looking for.
