    Thanks wreckedangle. I've been meaning to check these guys out having only heard The Earth is not a Cold Dead Place. I guess newer material is as good a place as any to start.

    I've never gotten into this whole post-rock shenanigans, I know, I know how terribly uncool of me. I seem to know the name of every freaking artist ascociated with the movement, but hey.. maybe I should start here, If me and sendspace can get over that little thing we have about never fucking working ever. Is it going to be 50 minutes of IDM made with guitars like some of the other shite i've heard or will it be worth my time?

    why was it taken down? they usually don't mind advance albums being up.

  • It's probably a transcode or violates some other OiNK rule.

    Ahhh! You're testing, nay, stabbing at with a flaming spear, my patience! And the album's due out all the way in February! This might kill me, but I'm gonna try to wait this one out (I mean, I know that I probably won't buy the cd - being the cheap miser that I am - if I already have it downloaded).

    Sorry, the file you requested is not available.


    The file has been deleted. Unfortunately, it did not comply with the terms of service.


    I'm sure as hell not paying moneys or wasting ratio buffer to find the one post-rock band i'll like. Guess I could ask a friend for a cd.

    All they have is Godspeed you! Black Emperor, and I hated everything about them *puts anti-awthomp armour on*. Wait a sec.. is The album leaf post-rock, I love those guys.

    Hahahah! The Album Leaf is more electronic/downtempo etc, rather than post rock.

    Post rock is heavier. Remember, it does have the word ROCK in it.

    Post-Rock isn't even a real music genre. It's like "Indie".

    it's a bit more specific than that... but I understand what you mean.

    It's more of a genre than "pop".

  • post-rock is a lot like anti/psych-folk. The bands that are often included in it vary widely, but it's description is very specific. All of the bands that are most commonly referenced by it fit into the category.

    the only reason disambiguation surrounds both genre's is because it wasn't a band, or a scene that coined the term, in both cases it was genre hobbyists and music reviewers.

    when by definition a genre is experimental, becoming a clear cut and established genre is difficult, because the artists that are contained within it are constantly pushing the boundaries. This requires either further genre-ization or a broadening of the genre. People usually opt for the later.

    I think post-rock is a dumb genre (not the music, but the word).

    "Using rock instruments for non-rock purposes"

    That's so stupid. Who decides rock instruments? And if they are used in any other genre, can that be post-rock? It's a stupid genre IMO.
