The Post-Rock team rejected Jesu, but I don't know about the Prog Metal team.

I didn't vote though...

Jesu got added? Shocked

pretty cool

easily some of the heaviest stuff I've ever heard and yet the melodic vocals on top contrast it perfectly

EDIT: It seems I read wrong EmbarrassedOuch

still a good band though and I could see them under post-metal, though I was under the impression they got rejected

I wouldn't say Oceansize are post rock, but they do kick ass, their best album is Everyone into Position.

Souvenir's are another great band. Their music is very atmospheric and even trippy at times. I have their debut, but I haven't heard their latest yet.

They are more post rock than metal, but it's absolutely awesome!

Recently got their An Ocean Without Water released through Crucial Blast and liked it quite a lot (wasn't expecting much out of it).

By straight forward I mean that theyre songs are shorter and build MUCH faster, which of course isnt the trend in instrumental post metal. I will give them some more listens before I make a final judgement.

^^ Irepress is a great band.  I would agree that they have a very complex sound.  Listening to Samus Octology right now.

Irepress is so far the most straight forward prog metal bands I've heard so far.

Thanks man. Omega Massif are great, but I had some slight problems with them that kept me from liking them a lot. Still a wonderful band.

And are you sure about Irepress? They're one of the more complex bands in the Post-metal genre! Even Omega Massif are more straightforward than them. Ermm

^^  Clap I'll order it this week. I don't even want to listen to samples of the songs. I want to be surprised from start to finish.

Thanks,decent bio info on them was hard to find and I decided to flesh a bare bones bio out because I wanted to get them added.
 
Geisterstadt is on my long "Best Albums of 2007" list.Tongue

And I just reviewed it. Approve

In Der Mine is my favorite metal song of 2007.

I received both in the mail this morning, so far I've only listened to half of Heim (the live CD). I'll let you all know what I think once I've had a chance to work my way through everything. Big%20smile


As I promised I would I've now watched Heima and listened to all of Hvarf-Heim, and both are incredible, Heima left me speechless which is a first for a music DVD. Hvarf-Heim is a wonderful collection of songs, the live half in particular is a wonderful listen.
