Maps & Atlases are great. They're one of those few math rock bands that somehow manages to make vocals not seem too out of place with frantic polyrhythmic goodness.

Generally Tortoise isn't, but I have seen to them reffered to as such and at times I think they are, but mainly they are post-rock Slint on the other hand is considered one of the founding fathers of both math and post rock.

hey check out Meet The Feebles, just got their EP A Dream... and they tend to show a math rock influence similar to Maps + Atlases but not to technical or fast.

check their myspace out www.myspace.com/myf

I was just wondering if there could be a genre called math metal just as similar as post rock's post metal? Since they have a certain degree of relation to one another.Just curious.And if there is any mention some examples(bands).Geek

Here are some samples:

At the risk of sounding obvious watch your spelling here - Giraffe was a Californian (Genesis) prog tribute band, lead by Kevin GIlbert.....

Wouldn't math metal be considered the same thing as technical metal?Confused
It makes sense that math rock is to rock as post metal is to post rock, as mathcore (also called technical metalcore) is to metalcore as you would assume math (technical) metal is to metal?

Well I was just wondering.Shocked But I've read somewhere that the term math metal was often refererd as technical metal just as you said. Ever heard Trephine? This band is considered math rock and I think it is, but it's not in math rock because of it's metal tendencies.

the association was made in the music industry probably because both forms started around the same time and were mostly U.S. based   ..but stylistically they rarely resemble each other, comparing say Tortoise with Don Caballero
