I have had a hard time trying to find the right type of fast rock that I like. I don't like the songs that have that deep screamo kind of sound (hard to describe it)

Unfortunately I have only two songs that might be able to help compare to other songs. I like the tempo (speed of the song) and beat(how the song is played) of the two songs particularly. I also like how the artists have a sort of passion/power/energy for these two songs, but they are doing it perfectly without having to go overboard or under my expectations(voice wasn't what I expected.) Listen and see for yourself I suppose? Much appreciated if a song is found :).

You can try:

Pearl Jam's new CD - Backspacer

Weezer's Red Album is pretty good in this regard, as well:

Garbage has three CD's that you might like, although the lead singer is a female (some people aren't really into that). Try out their self titled album, Version 2.0, and Beautiful Garbage.

I'll start off with that, maybe you can give a little more information after rejecting / accepting them. I've got like 2000 CDs in my music collection, so I'm pretty sure I've got something that you might like.

This one is probably the closest but not close enough, I could probably put a list of songs but those extra song has a similar beat, they are just slower. Have you listen to the two songs I posted? Those two are the ones I am trying to get close to what I am looking for (even closer would be the first one.) It is strong on the bass and drums.

Songs that come to mind:

The Good Left Undone - Rise Against
Dammit - Blink-182
Monkey Wrench - Foo Fighters
The Kids Aren't Alright - The Offspring
The Hell Song - Sum 41
Girl's Not Grey - AFI
Out of Control - Hoobastank

You'll find a lot of such songs in Rise Against, Blink-182, Foo Fighters, The Offspring, and Sum 41's discography.

Can you be more specific about what it is you like about these songs, is there a certain part of the song in particular you like?

Otherwise, I'll just throw out some more guesses.

Good, but too slow ;)

I could try. Sort of hard considering I literally like the whole part of the song.

Goodbye: This one has a combination between two parts for the song. The intro is something I like (before the song actually begins [0:00~0:24])
0:24-1:18(I could split this spot into two parts though. 0:24-:44 and :45-1:18)

The Pretender: The second one is harder to do. It tends to start out lightly and as it gets further into the music, it gets more "powerful."

:30-1:08 transition into 1:09-1:45 (just a section to notice the difference.)
