the genre 'post - rock' doesnt really make any sense, ive read mogwai say they hate being called post rock
but of bands that are often described as post rock, i like sigur ros, mogwai, slint, gy!be, silver mt zion, do make say think - all diverse bands who are put under that umbrella of post rock i suppose

In that genre, I only really listen to Sigur Ros, Mogwai, and EITS. Everything else just seems the same to me (except for GY!BE being a whole lot more longwinded and less focused).

Anyone know The Redneck Manifesto? Not your "typical" post-rock band insofar that they're a lot more riff based and a lot busier in what they play.
I'm gonna get all indie sub-genre nazi-ish now but elvrum are Slowdive not more shoegaze?

the redneck manifesto rules.
also about slowdive, definitely shoegaze. but shoegaze and "post-rock" have their similarities.

saw mogwai a few months ago. amazing live show. people should check out "decoder ring". really mellow instrumental, some vocals. from australia. they did the score to the movie "somersault". best live show ever....so far. www.myspace.com/decoderringsounds |
