I look for pretty much the same qualities. Lyrics, strong guitars and interesting (though not necessarily complex) bass. I love listening to drums. Sometimes I will sit through a song three or four times in a row focusing on nothing but the drums. But when I listen to music, because I play so many instruments and have been listening to music forever, I hear the overall piece simultaneously with all the different parts, which I know sounds weird. I guess I mean... I could tell you exactly what is happening with the drums, bass and guitars at the same point, but at the same time, I can sit back and listen to all the separate parts flow into one entity as the song. If you follow. I can't really explain it.
