Post Rock anyone?

Axiomatic Euphoria · 07-12-2009, 03:18 PM

I have recently begun getting into this slightly obscure genre. I've so far listened to quite a bit of Sigur Ros, Hammock, and Mono. I plan on listening to Mogwai soon. Anyone else have an interest in it? If so, please recommend some stuff. I have a few fans of the genre I can get recommendations from, but I love getting them from different people, because different people tend to have different outlooks and different favorite bands and such, and just searching random bands isn't my style, especially when it comes to this genre. Also, besides recommendations please offer your overall opinion on Post Rock, if you have one.

I'm a big post-rock fan myself. I would definitely recommend also checking out Explosions in the Sky and Godspeed You Black Emperor. If you like Mogwai, try some MuM and Do May Say Think. And for a more obscure suggestion, try some Piano Magic.

As for my feelings for post-rock, it has kept

MusicMan already suggested all the post rock I know of.

Enjoy Eternal Bliss by Yndi Halda is a really great album. So is What We Must by Jaga Jazzist. But yeah, MusicMan has already mentioned the best ones.

Hammock are great! Be sure to check out Jonsi from Sigur Ros side project Riceboy Sleeps aswell, its great!'

Lights Out Asia and Ecovillage are also great bands that I discovered lately.
