Re: Best instrumental
Hmm, I like GY!BE and older Mogwai stuff (Happy Songs for Happy People is boring as hell, don't get it), but most of their material is too dark to play constantly. However, I will name-drop Do Make Say Think like they are the next big thing (don't be mistaken, they aren't).

I like Buckethead's instrumental version of Wrathchild:

Re: Best instrumental
Surprised it took this long for Buckethead to be mentioned. I'll also add anything off Colma any number of songs from Electric Tears, Welcome to Buckethead Land, Giant Robot as well his work in Praxis with Bootsy Collins/Bill Laswell etc, etc...
If anyone is unfamiliar with him, he's one of the most prolific and diverse musicians to ever grace the planet. A complete monster on the guitar.
His discography is as impressive as any modern artist.

Re: Best instrumental
There are many many rock instrumentals (check out Surf Noir or Guitar Noir) but it is hard to beat "Beck's Bolero", especially since it includes Jeff Beck and Keith Moon (drums, of course). Moon's scream at the end is awesome.

"Sts'ikel" - Hope of the States (a haunting epic of a tune - that propels you into the stratosphere of instrumental rock music - stunning)
