I can't vibe with anything lyrics-centered. So rap is almost entirely out for me, and most pop and indie-rock too.

Velvet Underground is the only band to whose lyrics I actively listen or read them. Lou Reed had a particular style of writing, with very simple words and imagery, that works great for me. E.g. ‘Candy Says’ or ‘I'm Sticking With You’. Nico, who sang for VU on their first album, also has some great songs: e.g. ‘These Days’ and ‘The Fairest of the Seasons’, both written by Jackson Browne (and the latter also by Gregory Copeland).
