I actually was going to include them, but didn't want to confuse him by recommending a band that only really had one post-rock album.
RoadForksYou: All the bands I listed are "big names" in the origins of post-rock. And they represent a very diverse selection of sounds. I was trying to steer you away from just "post-rock that sounds like GY!BE, Mogwai, EitS, Mono, etc."
I cannot recommend Rex's first album enough. It's what you would get if you crossed Slint with folk music, roughly speaking.
TheFuriousWombat:
September Malevolence, Ellis the Vacuum Child, Loss of a Child, The American Dollar, The Ascent of Everest, Because of Ghosts, Blue States, Te, Boy is Fiction, Grails, Six Parts Seven, Migala, Caspian, Clogs, Rachel's, Efterklang, French Teen Idol, From the Sky, Of Sinking Ships, Friends in the Mountains, Japancakes, We're From Japan and Joy Wants Eternity are ones that don't seem to have been mentioned and come to mind immediately w/o any itunes browsing. I can recommend all of them highly. Much of my 100gb library is post-rock/ambient music so if this list doesn't do it I can throw out some more.
imagist42:
Call me a dabbler all you want... after watching Heima, I'm certain I will never need anything more than Sigur Rós. And maybe Explosions because we share a hometown so I have to root for them. And maybe Mono because they blew my freaking mind one day a while back.

I found them incredibly boring
JimmyJazz:
Sigur Rós's Ágćtis Byrjun is amazing.
