After having a browse through the archives, I was wondering why the gwai aren't mentioned, surely if Godspeed can be classed as prog, the Mogwai can. In fact the whole post-rock genre has its roots in prog and electronica.

I've suggested Mogwai to be added. They're one of my favorite bands, and I would love to see them on here, as their certainly worthy. Happy Songs For Happy People is absolutely stunning.

Probably one of the best live bands I've ever seen, and thats saying something. Also one of the loudest, although Lift to Experience creep in there as being louder.

Happy songs for happy people is a gorgeaus album. Thing is, if you include Mogwai, you've also got to include Slint, Fridge, Explosions in the Sky and all the other bands doing something similiar.
