Post Rock
OP - November 22, 2010, 03:09 AM

Any fans of this genre?

Some classics:

Explosions in the Sky - A song for our fathers, an incredible climax:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JkksFySAiE&feature=related

Godspeed you black Emperor - The sad mafioso, haunting, fascinating, riveting

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSnABcDg4t8

God is an Astronaut - Forever Lost, beautiful melodies

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMEGJ-Jk58Q

And finally, Sigur Ros - Glosoli, the crown jewel of the whole movement

Can't forget 65daysofstatic. They're fantastic.

A group that well delivers captivating, hypnotic soundtracks for an occasion.

List of things I think are pretentious, meaningless crap: post-modernism, post-racialism, post-leftism...noticing a trend?

So you are dismissing an entire collection of music because you don't like the label that groups it together? I'm not sure but I would think that taking such a blanket view with such ease is pretention in and of itself

In all seriousness, ignore the label and give it a listen. You may like it.

Nah, it's being a bitter, closed-minded, contrarian, stubborn crank-- but it's not pretention.

hahah, fair enough
I don't know if post-modernism is meaningless though I think more has been made of it than it warrants but that's a discussion for another thread.

Yeah post rock is basically just a title for similar sounding music, mostly instrumental, mostly emotional, dreamy, etc..
nothin much 'posty' about it per se

Sigur ros is the only band that has remained one of my favorite bands for the last ten years...they stand the test of time!

I'm always looking out for acts that bring jazz into the mix. Post-rock jazzists I'm aware of are Fridge, Jaga Jazzist and Tortoise:

EITS "Your Hand In Mine" is one of my favorite songs ever.

And I love incredible climaxes.

Can't wait to check out the other recs here.
