But 'Kids Will Be Skeletons', 'Whitenoise' and 'Secret Pint' are my favourites. Other Mogwai songs have vocals, but very few and they're often distorted beyond belief via vocoders and delays.
Sigur Ros is also a good shout. The '()' album is great. Unfortunately none of the songs have titles, so #4 and #6 are my favourites.
I assumed you're talking about modern bands that make a point of being instrumental because otherwise I could name a hundred classical and jazz numbers!
edit: Oh, and "Apache".

Yeah I like a bit of classical but not really what I intended.
I've never got my head around Jazz though.
