Okay, after some screwing around in iTunes, here are songs I am playing around with:

Give the Devil Back His Heart by the Barr Brothers - Music | Lyrics: I don't know exactly what kind of roadtrip folktale is happening but it sounds very intense!

Tardigrade Song by Cosmo Sheldrake - Music | Lyrics: It's a song about being depressed and miserable. Or being a tardigrade. Both, really.

Pillars & Pyre by Christopher Smith - Music | Lyrics: The song is about... a disgruntled trained falcon? An enslaved shapeshifter? A cult devotee? Whatever is going on it doesn't appear to end well.

Tell Me a Story by Krista Detor - Music: Man, no lyrics online? Well, okay. Anyway, Santa, the tooth fairy, vampires, etc. are all real but total disappointments... and the singer's relationship is failing rapidly.

Sun Song by the Mountain Goats - Music | Lyrics: No particularly weird/SFnal elements, actually, just a gardener being angry at someone who keeps giving them unsolicited advice. But I want to know about the defensive gardener!

Damn Good Times by TMBG - Video | Lyrics: In the video, a vampire barista hypnotizes a vintage-clad hipster girl. For some reason there are evil valkyries? According to the lyrics she's a natural dancer.

I'm Impressed by TMBG - Video | Lyrics: A charming (but slightly gory) papercraft stop-motion video about a robot dictator.

The World's Address by TMBG - Music | Lyrics: Unconventional physics, bad puns, and the narrator apparently having a nervous breakdown, what's not to love? BUT SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE.

Ice Queen by Within Temptation - Music | Lyrics: Just your standard song about a terrifying anthropomorphic personification of winter!

Memories by Within Temptation - Music | Lyrics: Somehow the singer got separated from someone she loves, and... she is trying to find her way back and is doubtful if that will ever happen? She wants them to somehow send her a sign? I feel like there is some weird parallel universes shit going on here, or time travel, or something. I like the video too, it's got that nice haunted house feel to it.
