Just wait till you get a hold of "& Yet & Yet" and more importantly "Goodbye Enemy Airship. The Landlord is Dead" which is one of my top 5 post-rock albums ever.

Sadly, Do Make Say Think discussions aren't very common here in PA.Disapprove


I like DMST Tongue
And I heard You Are Here for the first time last night, really enjoyable and pretty.

Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn was good after first listen, but You Are There was incredible.  One of the best first impressions I've gotten from a band!  Just beautiful music! Thumbs%20Up

If you all really liked You Are There then I recommend to check out this:


The Sky Remains The Same As Ever.


Keep in mind that this is a documentary so most of the songs don't appear in their entirety. The performances are excellent and the footage of the people watching the concert (specially the lovers) is simply stunning and heartwarming.

I haven't seen this yet, but I'll check it out when I can...

I saw Mono live a while back and it was truly amazing.  For having no stage production at all, they really put on a show.  I've never seen a band get more into the music with their bodies.

About Do Make Say Think, I really dig them and "YYAHIR" was up there with Crippled Black Phoenix's premier album as my fav. releases of last year.

I'm not sure what you mean exactly, but if you mean the complexity of their compositions over the skill required to play them then i'd say yes.

Here's a band that's not listed in the archives:
 
Neil on Impression:
 
Got it from a friend today, and I've listened through the CD once - this is great stuff. One of the better post-rock bands I've heard so far!

Thumbs%20Up
I've been trying to get them added since I heard  The Perfect Tango!  I really like that album and their debut is on the waiting list of albums in my collection that need listening. The problem is that there isn't really any information about the band around the internet and their website is completely Italian. The only info. I know about them is the one at their Last.fm page and it isn't informative at all. The music's very epic, but with trumpets, pianos and a proggier sound than standard post-rock bands.

On the good side, I added a band with a similar sound as Neil On Impression:


The Pirate Ship Quintet


I need to stop adding bands and start reviewing the bands I add.

Stunning, same to TPSQ Cham. I feels very good to learn of such great music all in one day. I'm spending too much money lately. Big%20smile

Hmmm...

 

I havent posted for a page, and we start talking about post rock?!?! This disgusts me. Just kidding, I like post rock as much as metal.

I'm still obsessing over MotW, so I dont have too much to say. Except that I got some talk talk, at first hey reminded me of Sigur ros, letting their instruments feed back, and heavy on the minimalism. They'r not post though, so ignore me.

^ I dig your av. Schizoid Smile  I know how you feel, i can't stop listening to MotW also. (especially those dainty interludes)

I think i'm gonna be listening to the MySpace samples from TPSQ & NoI all night though.

i dont know if anybody has mentioned this already cause there is 35 pages...but has anyone heard the song "A Going Under" by I Am The Ocean?  this song is very post-rock/alternative.  it sounds like a lost Oceansize song, and a good one at that!  unfortunately the rest of the songs by that band are not post-rock at all.  they sound like a very heavy deftones.  too much metal and screaming for me.  but that one song is brilliant!  it was on their myspace until recently, but now its gone.  it's definitely worth buying it on itunes for a dollar though. check it out

hello all, havnt been around in a while. hey schizoid, how did you go about buying your copies of MotW?  I was asking around a while ago and no one could seem to find it. my bit torrent file closed down, they dont carry it on amazon except for a 90$ import, and the website only carries my fruit psychobells. and since im talking about my terrible lack of music, Blessed are teh Bonds has STILL not come. . . . tear Cry (sniff)

is it odd that motW doesn't really strike me as post-rock/metal? I mean they have their songs like it but I always thought they were under it for the 'experimental' part

Kayo Dot definitely falls better under post however

maudlin of the Well is more just avant-garde metal with a megaton of influences. I would say that Kayo Dot is post-metal because it fits my definition being "metal instrumentation used for non-metal purposes".

Maudlin is not post anything, I just love them so much I had to post them here. Thy're actually undefinable; jazzy, proggy, avant, Brilliant.
 
Una corda, post metal band with 2 BASS'! Interesting stuff.

I like Una Corda,they need more exposure.
 
I just found another pretty good band out of the UK called What the Blood Revealed and I hope to be adding them here soon.

I'm not the biggest fan of this side of the metal triangle but recently heard NEUROSIS and finally found something I could give 4 stars to. I've heard a few others but they still don't get to me.
 
KAYO DOT has been called Avant-garde. I still think is very post-metallish. And I still can't understand the 14 minute repetition in _On limpid Form (or something like that..)...
