    Couldn't wait for the official release to check it out and share it, so here's Mogwai's new album in all its leaked beauty.

    `But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
     `Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad.  You're mad.'
     `How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
     `You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'

    This is a thread for post-rock, not for posting rock music.

    I find most post-rock to be incredibly dull, soulless and pretentious. Neu and This Heat accomplished a similar task (insofar as texturality is concerned) in the 70s with much greater aplomb. Tortoise and Godspeed are fantastic though.

    I literally have no idea what you're talking about. Post-rock is one of the most soulful and emotional genres ever. And there's hardly anything pretentious about it; it's incredibly accessible and beautifully simple.

    1) most, not all, post-rock. I happen to own quite a few Mogwai, Godspeed and Tortoise records.
    2) By soulless I mean the bands have no personality. Everyone's either ripping off Neu! or Tortoise, or Mogwai, or Godspeed, or Swans...

    Swans. Now that's one fucking outstanding band.

    I mean, just listen to this. Twee — utterly pointless noodling. It goes nowhere — it has no kick to it. It's disgustingly bourgeois music and I happen to be a fan of romantic and baroque classical music both, yet, I'm saying this.

    Drawing on metal, punk, industrial, musique concrete and the avant-garde, whilst still retaining the visceral physicality of rock music. A lot of post-rock might as well be called music for films and awkward one night stands (with guitars...)

    King Crimson were also superb exemplars of what could be called (post)rock. I'm particularly thinking of Robert Fripp's guitar technique which owes more to 20th century classical than it does the blues.

    Fantastic, utterly fantastic band BTW. Definitely up there for me with Throbbing Gristle, Soft Machine, and Can.

    King Crimson was truly an amazing band as much as Throbbing Gristle is. Innovative and interesting music.

    I actually quite like this, and it progresses and builds up nicely.

    You don't get to define genres the way you like. This isn't post-rock. I heard a couple of seconds and thought that this seems to be a mixture of post-punk and industrial rock. And sure enough, after some research, I found the band characterized under both—but not post-rock.

    Now just enjoy the music or make your own thread.

    The irony being that Post-rock was a genre term conceived by Simon Reynolds. Like Neurofunk.

    Quote
    The term "post-rock" is believed to have been coined by critic Simon Reynolds in his review of Bark Psychosis' album Hex, published in the March 1994 issue of Mojo magazine.

    I like you. You make me laugh, and (very occasionally) talk sense.

    The only band mentioned so far that I really like are Neu!. (I get a kick out of that !. combo.)

    Swans - mighty impressive but unlovable.

    King Crimson - chilly, twiddly, unlikeable (despite my sneaking fondness for Court of the Crimson King).

    I'd moved from rock into the lusher Latin pastures by the time Mogwai and Godspeed came along, but I'll check them out. Rave Tapes is playing at the moment...

    Years ago I made a demo tape. It was okay, and someone at Brian Eno's label was very keen till he got sacked or something. But its chief problem was that it didn't fit into any genre known to man, Google or even Abood.
