yeah I have to agree, they are too happy and GY!BE sounds dark, and I really could not find any resemblance when I heard them. I must have forgotten. It's been quite a while since I listened to both of these bands.

I mean that most post rock have a similar approach to these giants of the genre. Just like you say EitS is a clone of GY!BE.

I thought that Sickoakes approach was rather original, and conversly, that EitS was pretty standard Post Rock.   GY!BE stil remains my favorite Post Rock band, but EitS just sounds like a good, but thinly veiled GY!BE cloen.

I'm not sure. I like GY!BE, Explosions In The Sky, Transit, The Pirate Ship Quintet maybe some more. Normally I tend to look for a more original approach.

I just got their album, Seawards, and I'm blown away.  It's like GY!BE meets EitS meets These Monsters..., and it does it so well!  Possibly one of my favorite post rock bands, ever!


I tried listening to them but they we're just not for me.

Sickoakes is a great band.  Their album Seawards falls into that category of must haves for the genre.

It seems that Deteriors Myspace was just down for a bit, anyways.... Very pretty stuff Jody; thanks for another great recommendation!  Clap

So, i got LITEs album "Phantasia" and i've been enjoying it immensely; I think it has some very beautiful compositions. I've put some idea's together for a review, (as well as a much needed review for the Sam Jackson 5) i just need to muster up the boldness to post them. Big%20smile

I'll probably listen to them more closely over the next few days, and see what I like and don't like as much.
I've always thought Like Herod was a super cool song.

Young Team is sadly way ahead of all that followed......ok CODY was pretty good too but YT is the real epiphany, the real sock-it-to-you impact that blows minds in a lovely way..........

Mogwai FTW. I've got nearly all their discography, but haven't got around to listening to half of it yet.
Happy Songs is pretty awesome though.

Finally got Happy Songs for Happy people BTW!


What did you think?

I just picked up the remastered version of Young Team (only had mp3 before today).  Good stuff.  Happy Songs is still my favorite Mogwai album though.

I don't think Indukti and Tool are Post Rock/Metal.
