Can you suggest some energetic, dream-like alternative songs?

Really didn’t know how to word this. All I know is that I’ve been completely in love with The Shelter of My Love by Astropol. I’m looking for some more alternative, dream-like, cinematic, emotionally intense songs. Songs that make you have flashbacks of things you never experienced. Songs that make you lose yourself before the voice of the artist jolts you awake. Songs that sound like how perpetual fogs and inevitable spirals feel.

I’m not sure what to call this specific genre, either. What the hell is shoegaze, anyway?

Some of the guitar work reminds me of Ratatat.

You might also like Washed Out.

Songs that make you have flashbacks of things you never experienced.

There are all kinds of bands that do that for me. The first two that come to mind are Explosions in the Sky and The Midnight.

Also there’s a recently invented word for that feeling:

Anemoia - n. Nostalgia for a time or a place one has never known.

I have a playlist called Kodak Daydreams that be what you’re looking for. It’s mostly dreampop and shoegaze

Listening to your example, compare the Deftones’ “Knife Party.”

From the description - hypnogogic pop? Tame Impala, especially anything off Currents. An album that begins with “Let It Happen” and ends with “New Person, Same Old Mistakes.”

Kinda progressive rock, especially post-70s. Kingston Wall - “Could It Be So?”

Songs that make you lose yourself before the voice of the artist jolts you awake.

Oh, so more My Morning Jacket. “Touch Me I’m Going To Scream, Pt.1.” “Dondante.” Or arguably Mew’s “Comforting Sounds.”

Rapture by Iio.

How about some Beach House?

The entire album Symbol by Susumu Yokota might hit the right nerve, though it’s heavier on the dreamlike side and doesn’t have lyrics. I use it for driving, writing, anything that needs a kind of hypnotized but functional state of mind.

Your description made me think of The Golden Palominos.

My brother in christ, you need some Hatchie.

Hatchie - Rooftops

Hatchie - Giving the World Away

Beach House might be close to this? You could try the songs “Myth” or “Silver Soul”

Other suggestions:

Pink Bullets - The Shins
Taro - Alt-J
My Warm Blood - The Microphones

Not sure if this will be what you’re after, but the first thing that reminded me of is Goodbye by Apparat (although that’s a bit slower than the tune you linked).
