Soundtracks to the End of the World: The Post-Rock thread™

[zeb]

Oh good, I just thought everyone was ignoring me as per usual.

[Reflection]

I haven't listened to everything here (gonna check shit out), but am I the only one who prefers EITS over the Mogwai's etc.

[Soma.]

Don't be like that, zeb. You're the godfather of OB. We take heed of every suggestion. Savor every nuance.

I certainly loves me some "post-rock," and this thread runs a pretty good gamut of some great music. I feel like I have to add Tortoise, because they are amazing, even though I presume most here are primarily interested in/concerned with "crescendo-core," so they don't really fit in.

Furthermore, I need to rep Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra (and all variations thereof), because they are my favorite band. There's a lot more singing than anything else in this discussion, besides Sigur Ros, but I feel they deserve recognition alongside many of these other bands.

It's brilliant stuff, this. I remember loving it the first time.

LMS, this is brilliant. Thanks so much for sharing.

Hammock is great. On the mellow side.

Chasing After Shadows... Living With the Ghosts is my favorite.

this is not post-rock, more like ambient (dark), but it's my #1 song for the 2013 apocalypse

This guy has a new record out this week as The Stranger, I'm really looking forward to it.

We should have a thread for this stuff, huh?

It's been a Mono kind of day.

*puts cynical hat on* So this song has a lovely, dark atmosphere (which is the point, isn't it) but it's basically somebody else's song that 'The Caretaker' has put filters and effects all over and claimed as his own, yes? So the song is some swooshes and crackling sounds? *takes cynical hat off*

This is just kind of a pretty boring / average rock song without a vocalist.

Guys, I'm just lookin' for some fresh post-rock.

I don't know what it is but it was 4:13 of my life well-spent. Lovely stuff.

A pretty boring / average rock song without a vocalist for 13 minutes!

I really need to listen to more post rock
