They Will Destroy You - and other misc post-rock
RoadForksYou:
I'm really digging this new album that jeph commented about earlier tonight (They Will Destroy You). I would consider myself a post-rock fan, I've been through most of the wide-release records for Explosions, GY!BE, Mogwai, A Silver Mt. Zion, Set Fire to Flames, Bell Orchestre and the Red Sparowes.
But I'm hungry for more. Can anybody throw some more post-rock out there that I might enjoy?

I would consider you a post-rock dabbler since it sounds like you've only encountered or only listen to one "style" of post-rock, but whatever.
If you really want to get into the "genre" as a whole, first go back and get Disco Inferno's DI Go Pop, early Tortoise albums, Slint's Spiderland (duh), everything by Jessamine, Tristeza, Do Make Say Think, Labradford, Pan American (a project by one of Labradford's members), Aix Em Klemm (also Labradford-associated), Papa M's stellar Live From a Shark Cage, The For Carnation's equally astounding self-titled album, Flying Saucer Attack, Third Eye Foundation, Rex, him (not the metal band H.I.M.), Loscil, Windy & Carl, Clear Horizon (collaboration between Jessica Bailiff and Dave Pearce of FSA)...
That should keep you busy for a while.
As far as more recent stuff, Té (Japanese band) is one of the best things to happen in a very long time.

I'm fairly sure it's this will destroy you, not they.

Just go with the last two words and you're safe.
Jackie Blue:
I honestly haven't been too impressed by the last couple Tortoise albums, though they are decent. My context was trying to explain how to semi-chronologically get into the genre, though, which is why I qualified with "early".
