January 21, 200719 yr Alright, here's a thread for all sort of post-rock bands.. you just talk about these bands as much as you like, and post links for downloads.. pics.. etc. Personally i like Explosions In The Sky a lot.. i've been into this band for quite a while now.. i'm new to listening to it so i'm not that good.. so making this thread will probably widen my knowledge in it .. (thanks Lirak for the idea :cool:) edit: oh and i forgot to mention Sigur Ros, one of the best bands out there, EVER! :nice:
January 21, 200719 yr I downloade Explosion in the Sky some days ago, only heard 2 songs so far.. but i really loved them
January 21, 200719 yr Sigur Ros, My Bloody Valentine, Mogwai, Do Make Say Think, Tortoise, Godspeed You Black Emperor, Slint, Spiritualized these are great post-rock bands. check something from them if you can oh and i probably forgot someone EDIT: Eluvium!!!
January 21, 200719 yr well i'm not good at this specific genre but i do enjoy sigur ros,mogwai and tv on the radio.
January 21, 200719 yr I don't know much about this sub-sub-genre, as I believe in the 2-genre system which has fallen out of favour lately as it's too simple. Music is either Good or Bad.
January 21, 200719 yr indeed a very good thread, i would reccomend Samuel Jackson Five, 65daysofstatic, because of ghosts and september malevolence (besides those bands that were already mentioned).
January 21, 200719 yr I downloade Explosion in the Sky some days ago, only heard 2 songs so far.. but i really loved them same. saw it off the recommendations thread. from what i've heard so far, it's pretty good...
January 21, 200719 yr I don't know much about this sub-sub-genre, as I believe in the 2-genre system which has fallen out of favour lately as it's too simple. Music is either Good or Bad. Yes that's it. I heard, while I was talking with some buddies, that I listen to a few Post-Rock bands, never knowing which genre it really represents. Post-Rock would mean what comes after Rock, but for me My Bloody Valentine or Explosions In The Sky (who I love) are quite Rock bands. And when it comes to Godspeed You ! Black Emperor (that I love too), i think "Post"-Rock sounds a bit pompous for a band that's doing nothing very different from Pink Floyd's 1970 Atom Heart Mother. Anyway I like all those bands that have been mentioned here.
January 22, 200719 yr GY!BE have to one of the best bands I've ever listened to. Mint. Explosions are brilliant. Their new album is they're best imo, I'm glad they;ve started using other instruments, makes them sound a bit different :D My Bloody Valentine are considered post-rock? Hmm
January 27, 200719 yr Oh THAT's what you call this sort of music. What a shitty name, that means nothing. I don't know the definition anyway so I'll just say Godspeed You ! Black Emperor, Kepler, Ölvis (I think he really doesnt fit, only some songs), Stop it, you're killing me (I think they broke up, though, or changed their name to vanashing panda, something like this, I think it's just one person anyway) and.... Uh, I can't think of the others right now.
February 1, 200719 yr Sigur Ros are rather poppy sometimes though, right? I mean the last album... Oh well, I don't know, what do these categories mean anyway. (Damn, Chris015 I cant stop staring at your sig!)
February 1, 200719 yr Author Sigur Ros are rather poppy sometimes though, right? I mean the last album... Oh well, I don't know, what do these categories mean anyway. Sigur Ros are amazing. huh? what do you mean by 'poppy' ?
February 1, 200719 yr I mean, sometimes they don't sound like what I thought 'post rock' sounds like. I didn't mean I don't like it.
February 1, 200719 yr Sigur Ros are rather poppy sometimes though, right? I mean the last album... Oh well, I don't know, what do these categories mean anyway. (Damn, Chris015 I cant stop staring at your sig!) the lyrics?
February 1, 200719 yr In your signature you mean? No the band. If you were refering to Sigur Ros, my icelandic is rather poor.
February 5, 200719 yr I sometimes dislike how Jónsi sings in falsetto almost always. I sometimes get sick of it and skip the track.
