If you have understood and of course enjoyed Prog Rock first, "post-rock" isn't the big deal really, it seems you're only listening to this "post-rock" stuff, I recommend you guys listen to some Prog Rock. Wink

it's not rubbish, it's my oppinion as a Prog fan, a matter of fact is that "post-rock" has mostly young fans, older people don't even really pay too much attention for this stuff...wonder why. Tongue

I'd just like to say that in no way, shape or form are Kayo Dot and Maudlin of the Well Post Metal. MotW is an Avant-garde metal band and Kayo Dot are an avant garde band with metal tendancies, with the last two troacks on Dowsing Anamone... being the only ones with some Post Metal influence. IMO.

I think Jesu is really the definitive post-metal band.

Why it hasn't been mentioned. I really do not know.

Edit: There is also a massive shoegaze influence in there as well.

Post-metal is my favorite genre of metal as well (along with doom and other slow or avant-garde bands)!


I'll try to give you a full list of the bands I know of along with others closely related:

Rosetta
Manatees
Callisto
Isis
Cult Of Luna
Minsk
Mare
Kongh
The Pax Cecilia (giving their latest album for FREE. See details in their website)
Irepress
Russian Circle
Tephra
Omega Massif
Empires
Adai
Baronnes
Lorus
Bossk
Intronaut
Neurosis
Tides
Pelican
The Morningside (you can download their album for FREE here)
Khoma (the only post-metal band I know of with CLEAN vocals)
The Ocean
Keelhaul
Mouth Of The Architect
Battle Of Mice

The ones underlined are recommended for starters on the genre.

I hope that this list will help you in your adventure through the genre.Smile

BTW, I'm trying to promote those bands by adding them since many of them aren't really in the archives.Wink

Well, you are the post rock specialist.
 
Last time I was at my semi respectable music store it in the mall, I saw some Mogwai. Are they any good?

Yeah they are.
To basically repeat what others have said, good post-metal bands are Red Sparowes, Pelican, Russian Circles, and The Pax Cecelia (which I'm listening to now)


second The Pax Cecelia...they give an Isis sort of meets Godspeed vibe with a bit more classical feel to them. Very good and also FREEBig%20smile You give them your address and they send it to you.....though I think I'm going to eventually donate to them on their site once I get a bit more cash under my belt

When will you stop doing that mate? Sure it's your opinion and you have perfect freedom to express it. I just find it kind of pointless for you to appear on many Pro-Pogressive Metal and related threads and post something like you just did. Sorry.


not only that, but ripping comedy material straight from Dr. Thorpe on somethingawful.com

Sorry it's so complicated, I'll fix it when I can... but if you're really interested, click the link in the thread,  enter the code, wait however long it tells you, then press the "Free Download" button, and the standard download window will come up with a file called "Pallia Demos"
