WTF is post rock???  Confused  

Post-rock is a subgenre of rock music characterized by the influence and use of instruments commonly associated with rock, but using rhythms and "guitars as facilitators of timbre and textures" not traditionally found in rock. Post-rock bands are often without vocals.[2][3][4]

Don Caballero and Tortoise were among the more prominent bands described as post-rock in the 1990s, but their styles are very different, despite being instrumental bands centered on guitars and drums. As such, the term has been the subject of backlash from listeners and artists alike.[5]

Although firmly rooted in the indie or underground scene of the 1980s and early '90s, post-rock's style often bears little resemblance musically to that of contemporary indie rock.[3][4]

 
Thanks Luna, Smile
 
Would Djam Karet be considered post rock?  They have no vocals and rely a lot on "textures" than composition.

^No one refers to them as such (and they predate the term), but some of their stuff could be considered what people call 'post-rock'.

I take it you checked out This Empty Flow (which I posted earlier in the thread)?

Tbh, I haven't read through all the pages, but I doubt that Danish act Efterklang has been mentioned yet.
These guys are currently situated in Berlin. I gather the underground rock scene there is a tad more inspiring and open to change than the one found in Denmark.
Ethereal, melodic, electronic, grandiose and indeed highly vocal orientated:






Here's a banging performance with the wordless music orchestra. Comes highly recommended from yours trulyThumbs Up

Those Danes don't look like they should be grooving as hard as they are.

On another note, I like how the vocal melodies subvert expectations. Where you sometimes think he'll sing he doesn't. The unexpected silence gives it a rough, but poetic quality.

^ f**kin awesome as usual Dave.

Anyway. My suggestion is GODSPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR!

I kid!!! I'm being a loser.

Seriously though why not OFFICE OF STRATEGIC INFLUENCE (OSI)?

I think these guys are New Math/Post Rock in a lot of ways and they combine other genres of music to make themselves even more interesting. I'd give all 4 of their albums a spin....OSI, FREE, BLOOD and FIRE MAKE THUNDER.
I'd say FIRE MAKE THUNDER has the most Post rock/new Math flavor to it. ;)
My best suggestion would be those guys. Great music. Period.
Kevin Moore (ex-DT) is a freakin genius.
Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

It is not real post-rock but it is very good. Smile

The new album of Soup (Norway). It' sounds like Coldplay playing post/progressive/rock.

check some albums I've rated, some of them are decent song-oriented Post-Rock, like IMMANU EL debut or EKSO EKSO's 2008 release

I posted a song by them a couple of pages ago, Their EP is f**king amazing. Chino is a fountain of emotional brilliance.

Here is yet another of his 'side' projects, Crosses. Not as post rock as Palms, but still worth a listen.
