Above are You Me At Six and below are Enter Shikari, with a wide appeal in terms of style, not necessarily making themselves specific to genre but appealing to generally teenagers and young adults who like a mixture of genres.
The music I would like to use could be anywhere in the grounds of alternative/indie/heavier rock with an element of mainstream commercial appeal without being 'pop' or too heavy or too niche. Something that an audience can connect with either through being energetic and upbeat, or with emotion-drawing lyrics, or a song with both like Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner. Like with The View From The Afternoon (referenced on semiotic analysis) the music does not have to necessarily relate hugely to the video we produce but would preferably have a significant audience reaction whether it be to make them head-bang and air drum, dance or feel moved. The songs below have a mixture of these but all have effected me in some way while listening, and are all types that I'd consider using for my video.
Some examples of musical style I could consider:
Infectious, unique drumming pattern combined with a rough, rugged style of voice that has been extremely popular for the Kings of Leon.
Fast paced progressive rock that had a huge role in Biffy Clyro's rise to popularity
90s punk that started out being played at small gigs where die hard fans would mosh to, ironically positive sounding with it being about the singer being bullied in childhood
Funk that makes you pull faces and jump around the room with lyrics of a submissive male in a relationship where he is head over heels for his love interest
Lyrics of an abnormal, flawed yet romantic relationship with ironically contrasting upbeat pop punk on this track
