Considering that team was largely responsible for the very existence of a Mathrock genre at PA, "ignored" is an unfortunate way to describe it.   If want to slur a team, be sure that's what your intention is.
That was a bit harsh, I just meant to say that his suggestion won't be ignored. Not meaning to slur anyone.Embarrassed Besides, the suggestion was not too long ago when the team was in a transition period.

Oh it's "harsh" is it.   Then next time think about what you say and how your saying it.

I'm very sorry. Disapprove

It'll all be done evaluated soon anyway - the team has new life and work is getting done. There are just more in line, understand that Sven.

I repeat I'm not an expert but I thought that this genre was found here for the many similarities with Pink Floyd music. Certainly a good discovered that I want to explore.

That's a great record, really unique imo. Kind of flows into one big song in a way with the usage of repetition. 

Very memorable keyboard lines and vocals, they get stuck in my head after every listen. LOL



... though my favorite is Popzag!

We'll get to all of your suggestions, no need to bump them in another thread.
Oh yea I need to bump even here because e.g. that Brussels' Math Rock band called Casse Brique was suggested and passed by pre-eval team to your esteemed team in December 2011; to the present, the Math Rock Team did not let a little voice in respect of the band. 
Thus, along with discussion about Post and Math Rock in this beautiful thread, might not hurt if you get listen a few songs from Casse Brique. 
Thank you in advance.

Of course not. 
Those two genres have nothing in common.
Post Rock and Math Rock have been put together here just for practical reasons, methinks; as same as e.g. Experimental Metal and Post Metal are also sticked together.

Cool

I'm glad you posted and i'm very glad you liked what you heard. 

Hopefully you'll posts your thoughts on any other albums/artists you hear. A nice place to start if you liked those would be possibly Bones in the Soil, Rust in the Oil by Pretend. 
Clean tones, dynamic, jazz influences here and there, mathy guitar lines. Great album.

I am quite a fan, as my title might suggest.

Currently indulging in this:


But yes, the genres are just so emotive and can really make the mind go wonderful places. To me, it is the most addictive music because it is just so pleasant on the ears. Even the noisier stuff. I feel like everyone could learn to like it if they sat back and let it take them places, but I know it can be easy to grow impatient with. Especially stuff by Godspeed You! Black Emperor and the like. But yes, I highly recommend it to everyone.

Another favorite:

Hello, i just wanted to get a discussion possibly about one of my favorite genres that takes much of my listening. 
Both genres are very expansive and differ greatly from each other but are mixed constantly. 

I can understand why some people can dislike these genres. But i was curious what are the personal reasoning for some people's dislike or disinterest in these genres. 

On the flip side i feel like both genres bring a lot to the table. Math rock incorporates a lot of punk influences so the energy can sometimes be endless. I also love more intricate rhythms and more clean tones, which are used a lot - especially drum wise. I mean who hates grooves? Tongue

Some personal hidden gems of each genre, in my opinion, is Sgt's Stylus Fantasticus and Like Bells' s/t album.
Both actually feature a violin player, which is interesting to hear. 

I'd like to avoid making this simply a thread with lists but posting favorites is never discouraged. 





Cool
