I think we've finished ragging on those who haven't listened as far back as some others have. I could say that Slint started the movement. I could say that Talk Talk, Bark Psychosis, Disco Inferno, or Cul de Sac influenced the genre (Cul de Sac are pretty great.) but there would be no point. Hell, I could say that The Velvet Underground started post-rock (Apparently they influenced EVERYTHING. What the hell, music journalists?) but...sorry, I'm done. I made my point (hopefully).
Also, where is this stuff? We should get to uploading all of these 'post-rock influences' for the mediafire thread instead of just making claims on their credibility.
Zero, can I have some Flying Saucer Attack? Please?
