Title: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: voidSkipper on 19 Aug 2008, 23:05: I noticed today that my metal is heavily outweighing my postrock. I don't like this. If anyone could help remedy the situation by way of suggestions, I would be most appreciative.

My favourite stuff is in the vein of songs like
-Mono's "Moonlight"
-Explosions in the Sky's "The Birth and Death of the Day"
-Followed By Ghosts' "Clear Blue Sky"
-Mogwai's "Ratts of the capital"

I'm not a huge fan of the more experimental stuff, like most of Godspeed You Black Emperor.

Anyways, yeah, can't think of a better place to ask than here - suggest away!

Post by: look out! Ninjas! on 19 Aug 2008, 23:14: Te' are awesome. There are two albums in the mediaf!re thread, although the first on is incorrectly labelled as the second one.
They're from Japan.

Also, LITE are from Japan. Their stuffs in the MF thread too, but apparently it gets taken down fast.

And DON'T WE HAVE LIEK A BILLION THREADS LIKE THIS ALREADY!!

EDIT: OH YEAH....
SLINT! SLINT! SLINT! SLINT!

Go listen, now.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: locafoca on 19 Aug 2008, 23:52: i know you listen to mono already, but go get "under the pipal tree". it's my favorite album of theirs.

you may also like saxon shore and/or hyakkei.

i second the nomination for this will destroy you. their songs are of consistently outstanding quality, and the albums themselves are produced impeccably, like any good post-rock release should.

since you don't like post-rock as it relates to godspeed, i don't really have much more to offer you. if you want to give them another spin, try "F# A# Infinity" or "Slow Riot..."

Post by: Nodaisho on 20 Aug 2008, 00:47: How about post-rock influenced metal? Baroness's Red Album has... not really sure how to describe it, sort of swells and falls that remind me of ocean waves, which I tend to think of mogwai doing as well. Agalloch's Ashes Against the Grain is a post-folk dark metal album which I really cannot describe, but it is excellent and I recommend it heavily, though it does have a sometimes annoying forty seconds of feedback at the beginning, which always manages to sound really loud even at minimum volume.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Christophe on 20 Aug 2008, 01:09: Envy is one of my favorite post-rock bands, though they're more of a hybrid between screamo and post-rock. Some of their albums have been posted in the mediafire thread if you're interested.

I'm also a big fan of the bands Jeff Mueller was in: Rodan, June of 44, and The Shipping News. Their style of post-rock is geared more towards the shouty kind of post-hardcoreish post-rock.

Also, Slint.

Post by: Daft pun on 20 Aug 2008, 02:05: Caspian and Upcdowncleftcrightcabc+start (horrible horrible name, pretty decent music)

Aren't there thousands of bands out there mimicking the soft-loud-soft-louder-soft-reallyloud approach to making music? Still, if you want more maybe this (http://www.last.fm/group/AFTER+THE+POST+ROCK) can help you.

Along the vein of Baroness' Red Album (which I'd consider Atmospheric Sludge) is Minsk. Minsk are good! Ashes Against the Grain is really more of a doom type thing, but it's always good too.

I agree. If you check out only one thing by them, make it the song "Com". Also, if you want to skip the soft-loud-soft-loud approach, check out El Ten Eleven.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Calaveth on 20 Aug 2008, 07:03: I have to second This Will Destroy You. They're essential listening.

I quite like God is an Astronaut, Samuel Jackson Five, and if post-rock/post-metal like Baroness is interesting, don't miss Pelican.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Dimmukane on 20 Aug 2008, 07:15: This (http://sirenssound.blogspot.com/) site is your friend. I've found tons of great new postish stuff from there.

Also:
Moonlit Sailor
Leech
Lis Er Stille (they're a bit like Radiohead, but gravitate towards post-rock)

You might also like some ambient/downtempo, like Eluvium.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: fangsanalsatan on 20 Aug 2008, 07:55: For this really epic soft-loud thing you want to get:

Caspian - when they're loud, they're LOUD.
Ef - strings are nice.
The Pirate Ship Quintet - some shouting... and strings again.
Redjetson - for the EitS sound, if you don't mind some vocals.
Yindi Halda - obvious choice, really. the first 3 songs are probably overplayed by everyone listening to this kind of music.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: TheFuriousWombat on 20 Aug 2008, 08:15: Ooh, my favorite genre!
I absolutely second a lot of these recommendations (This Will Destroy You, Te, Caspain, Pirate Ship Quintet, Saxon Shore, Yndi Halda, Do Make Say Think)
I would add:
- The American Dollar

- Tarentel [based upon what you like, ONLY their very early stuff. Pretty much "From Bone to Satellite," which, incidentally, is one of my all time favorite albums, their contribution to the "Mort Aux Vaches" series and a couple others)

- The Ascent of Everest [standard post-rock sound pretty much but very well done and with some very well implemented vocals]

- Because of Ghosts

- Your Ten Mofo [God-awful name but quite the band]

- Destroyalldreamers

- The Drift [a different take than most of the bands above. They're a dub/jazz/rock band. Not even really post-rock at all but I like to recommend them every chance I get b/c they're brilliant and sort of fit the bill here).

- Sweek [Sweek are one of my favorites!! A huge band from Sweden with banjos and all sorts of cello/violin action on top of awesomely intense, crushingly loud crescendos and such. Listen to "The Unbelievable Cinematic Crash" right now!]

- Sparrows Swarm and Sing [These guys are writing all the songs Godspeed never got around to. They sound remarkably similar. This is a good thing]
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: imapiratearg on 20 Aug 2008, 08:17: Sweek are totally awesome. Seconded.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.

Paging Objects Inside Clouds to this thread.

Objects Inside Clouds, this thread.

Paging TheFuriousWombat is also appropriate in this situation.

Actually, a lot of stellar bands have been recommended and there isn't much left to say. From what has already been mentioned, I strongly second Envy, Do Make Say Think, This Will Destroy You, Leech, The Pirate Ship Quintet, Caspian, and Yndi Halda. LITE is really good but I'd only look at them if you have an interest in math rock. Right now I am really diggin Escape the Day, a slow quiet and beautiful post-rock band. I posted their album in the mediaf!re thread and recommends you get it. Ana Never is a bit of a godspeed 2.0 as well and they are worth a listen.

Really though, everyone else has covered this thread wonderfully. Also, Mono's best song is Yearning. This is proven fact.

Edit: Oh, to everyone I recommend Natural Snow Buildings. I just got one of their albums yesterday and oh my god it is so good. It's on sirenssound if anyone wants it. Its amazing.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Albatron on 20 Aug 2008, 13:40: I've really been diggin on If These Trees Could Talk - s/t. It's in the mediafire thread, so search for it there.

I also agree you should check out This Will Destroy You, Grails, Pelican, and The Drift.

Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: mberan42 on 20 Aug 2008, 20:12: Most of what I'm going to recommend has already been mentioned, but I'll re-recommend them for emphasis. Specific albums in italics, otherwise anything is good. Some of this may not specifically be "post-rock", but it tends towards what you might be looking for. Personal favourites (strongly recommended) in bold

65DaysofStatic
Alcest - Souvenirs D'un Autre Monde
The American Dollar (just downloaded A Memory Stream and have only listened to half of it, but it's pretty damn good)
Bell Orchestre - Recording a Tape the Colour of the Light
Do Make Say Think
Efterklang - Parades (not really post-rock, as said above, but good nonetheless)
Explosions in the Sky
God is an Astronaut - Far from Refuge or All is Violent, All is Bright
Godspeed You Black Emperor! - everything by them. Seriously.
Gregor Samsa - Rest
If These Trees Could Talk - s/t
Laura - Radio Swan is Down
Maps - The Wick and the Fire
Maserati - Inventions for the New Season
Misuse - s/t
Mogwai
Mono
My Education - Bad Vibrations
The Notwist (again, not really post-rock, but I highly encourage you get Neon Golden)
Russian Circles - Station
Sigur Ros (if you're not into them already)
Silver Mt. Zion (etc.) - I highly enjoy their latest, 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons, as well as He Has Left Us Alone (etc.) and Horses in the Sky
The Six Parts Seven - Casually Smashed to Pieces
Tape - Rideau
This Will Destroy You

Hope this helps.

I almost forgot about them. I recommend them every chance I get. Spry From Bitter Anise Folds is one of my favorite albums, EVER.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: TheFuriousWombat on 21 Aug 2008, 08:21: For more "folky" post-rock, listen to Clogs. Very nice music.
For more classical sounding post-rock, listen to Rachel's. Largely classical strings and piano with hints of guitar and drums.
It's not post-rock but anyone and everyone should listen to ambient duo Stars of the Lid. They must make Eno flush emerald with envy they're so damn good.

Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Scandanavian War Machine on 22 Aug 2008, 18:20: it's fucking amazing, right?

sometimes, when i'm really stoned, i just drive around listening to that album and looking at all the trees and hills and thinking "yeah, this cd was made for the northwest!"

it's fucking great. it just sounds like epic forests, huge trees, and devastating rockslides that are somehow beautiful. in fact, i'm gonna listen to it right now!
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Nodaisho on 22 Aug 2008, 19:31: Yeah, it was made for the northwest, Agalloch is why I want to visit Oregon. But it also works well for just about any cloudy mountains, that album got a huge amount of play last summer when we were in the mountains in PA.

I don't know about driving around stoned, though, I don't think I'd do that.

The White is also damn good, though it is more towards the folk side of their stuff, I listened to that in the middle of the night up in the mountains last winter, just staring at the treelines and the stars.

Actually... I don't think I know something by them I would describe as bad, I don't much like the Grey, but I don't like drone, so that could be the problem.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Dimmukane on 22 Aug 2008, 20:27: Like, it totally fit, because the conclusion of the Too Human trilogy (which isn't done yet, but that's how it'll end) is Ragnarok, in which all the advanced technology and evil machines are obliterated and nature takes over. I think I'm gonna go listen to it again, too.

Post by: Nodaisho on 22 Aug 2008, 20:55: Do it, I am listening to it right now.

Post by: Nodaisho on 23 Aug 2008, 09:47: I don't know, why didn't you? I did, well, did when I found out about it, about a year after it was released.

What makes post-rock ...post-rock?

I swear I have to post this so goddamn much it should be its own stickied thread:

"This is our 'post-rock' -- a term that must be construed politically in equal measure to its referencing of some diffuse 'instrumental' or 'deconstructed' musical aesthetic. 'Indie rock' was never a genre and its bastardisation as an aesthetic category was one of countless elegant corporate-intellectual coups during the 1990s. Sadly, all too many hipper-than-now taste-makers were happily complicit, ready to replace 'indie' with 'post' and thus help extinguish any abiding concern about the economies that ground and contextualise rock music. So fuck post-rock, and the smooth untroubled consumption it enables. Independent rock as a utopic analogue for social organisation is our mandate."

Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: lessthanfirst on 25 Aug 2008, 06:57: I'm not sure if a lot of people would consider them strictly a post-rock band but I think We Followed Tigers are really good.

I think someone else recommended Pelican as well, which is a good recommendation to make. Try and get the City of Echoes album if you haven't heard it.

That "were on" part makes me sad. They aren't defunct!

Also, anyone who wants to listen to awesome "post-rock"/whatever the fuck it should be called should listen to the album "Burning off Impurities" by Grails. Do it immediately. It's brilliant.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Jackie Blue on 25 Aug 2008, 12:13: Yes, Grails are basically amazing. For some reason, though, I don't think of them as post-rock. To me they sound like a sometimes-heavier, no-vocals version of Dead Can Dance.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: sean on 25 Aug 2008, 13:51: Yeah, really, GB!YE is dead. It's really a sad thought, but they will probably never get back together. I'd love to be proven wrong, but Godspeed will probably never play together again.

Post by: WhenIamGod on 27 Aug 2008, 05:38: Great thread. Lots of new music to listen to.

Has anyone listened to Rosetta? Mind-blowing post-metal in the vein of Isis. I personally think that their 2006 "The Galilean Satellites" kicks the crap out of most of Isis' work. Any band whose has the balls to make a debut double-disc album about an existential astronaut seeking release from his humanity through death is a hundred percent in my book. If you like Mogwai or Isis, BUY IT NOW. These guys NEED to be heard. No one knows about them and this is a travesty.
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: Be My Head on 27 Aug 2008, 07:33: On a slightly off topic note, if ya'll like Agalloch check out Nachtmystium. Namely their latest release "Assassins: Black Meddle Part 1". Yes, it's a play on words, they're psychedelic Black Metal. I suppose they could be considered a little post-ish, but they mainly stick to psychedelic and black metal.

Post by: TheFuriousWombat on 27 Aug 2008, 12:25: I'm a pretty big fan of EitS in general. How Strange, Innocence is a pretty fantastic debut. I find it hard to believe you could listen to "Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever" and be bored. While I love it, I can see you being bored with "The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place" and even moments on the newest (although that's arguable their best).
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: theoryC on 27 Aug 2008, 12:52: Those are the only two I have, so maybe I need to check the rest of their catalog. What I have heard though, is very boring, very generic.

I'm listening to Susumu Yokota's new cd Symbols right now. I don't know if it's really post rock, but it's damn fine, and I bet post rock fans would like it.

EDIT: nevermind, it's not new, came out in 2005. still great though
Title: Re: Recommend me post rock.
Post by: TheFuriousWombat on 27 Aug 2008, 13:19: They only seem a little generic because so many bands have copies/emulated/been influenced by them. EitS has been around for almost 10 years now so a whole lot of newer post-rock is actually derivative of EitS.

Also, Akhmed, Surface of Eceyon, Bossk, Galacticka, Shora, Meniscus, My Sleeping Karma, sgt., SubArachnoid Space, and Ten East all have interesting takes on the genre, generally more psychedelic-tinged than average (as are most things I listen to).

Oh man, Daturah is so great. They are perfect for walking around in a city on a day that is just way too hot.
