I've always loved anime. Not just because it's anime, but the storytelling and concepts blow me away.

Recently i've sorta regained my passion and i looked into a few things. Im only gunna drop two things for you guys, first of all would be my favorite anime, which is Beck...by a long shot.
My fave AMV (anime music video) is Jihaku's AMV for The foo fighters' "Best of you"

tell me ur fave anime and AMV, im looking for new material

[EDIT] Animes i have liked in the past are...
Grenadier
Berserk
Elfen Lied
Bleach (not anymore tho, too much filler)
Death Note
Chrno Crusade (yeah, it's not chrono)
Akira
Beck (duh)
Love Hina
Paranoia Agent

and more i can't remember, but that should give a decent sample.

for anyone who wanted to see the best of you AMV, heres the link http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dQAf6MQj1kE I really love that AMV cuz the musicality is amazing, and the sheer number of animes used is mind blowing.

Wow... and here I was expecting something. I mean, anything would have been better.

EDIT: Well, now that he's fixed it, I'll say that I hate AMVs, but my favorite anime is Code Geass, easily.

How sophisticated.
Why yes old chap. This is indeed unsophisticated, now please may you pass me my tea?
Don't forget the crumpets!

Though for the OP,

Full Metal Alchemist is one of my favorites

Just finished Macross Frontier, it's good if you can handle "macrossiness" and a shoehorned highschool plot.

Eureka 7 is also fun and enjoyable

I humbly suggest Serial Experiments Lain, Death Note, Akira (it's an acquired taste), and some people like Ghost in the Shell, but personally I've never watched it.

OI! Cut it out, you two.

I'm rather selective in my pursuits for anime, so I only like a few. Namely, Death Note, Full Metal Alchemist and Ouran High School. I have been known to read One Piece, but I don't like it that much.

I have to admit, I'm a bit of a GiTS fanboy, but it can be hella BORING and hard to get into if you don't like political thrillers/complex philosophy.

Rurouni Kenshin: Trust and Betrayal OVA. It's the gold standard for anime, basically, and despite it's age it's AMAZING.

Anything by Shinichiro Watanabe. Funky, Fun, Fighting.

Wiki tells me that Beck is pretty tame, so perhaps it isn't ultraviolence and gore you want.
So taking that into account, Full Metal alchemist is very good, or Cowboy Beebop.
