I wish post-rock was split in two
JLM:
I will dispute applying the label Post-Rock to Slint up until I reach the grave. They always seemed much more grounded in Hardcore to me...a lot more post-punk than post-rock.
which, since they're considered godfathers of post-rock, would make GY!BE and Mogwai post-post-rock or post-punk-rock-post-rock, and The Album Leaf more of a post-post-indie-electronic-folk-rock.
In fact, by even posting about post-post rock in a post-rock thread, I'm posting a post-post post about post-rock that's really post-post rock.
post.

Well orchestrated. Bravo.
*Sights*:
Most of the bands (i heard at least) labeled post-rock are pretty dramatic (GY!BE even more so). Jazzier things like Do Make Say Think are often labeled post-rock because there really isn't term that describes their sound perfectly.

I don't know, I kind of equate this sort of thing with the same sort of reverence people had for the term "post-modernism". So, given that, what do you have after "post...whatever"? And how can you be post-anything anyway? You're not after it, it's still going on. Maybe that's just me.
