I thought the song was pretty solid - it seemed like emo with less punk influence and a lot more 80s metal.  It was overproduced though, particularly the screaming.  Very proficient, though, technically, I think.

As far as songs go that initiate a "wow" - I've downloaded a few Gang of Four songs before, liked them well enough, but the address below links to a mp3 that really, really impressed me.
