Post-Rock

Anonymous · 2011-12-31T10:45:03-05:00

I've got interested in post-rock lately. So far, I've only tried Spiderland by Slint, but I have the feeling that it's not "pure" post-rock (despite the fact that I don't know much about the genre). Any recomendations for my next post-rock album? I also added a poll from where I (as well as others) can get inspiration. Don't know if they're all "pure" post-rock, but what the hell.

That's because Laughing Stock was helped made by the hands of god.

I voted for Slint, Spiderland is exceptional. Godspeed would be choice #2, but I know only two records by them (and particularly not the F# something). I could never understand how Laughing Stock could be assimilated to pstrock but that's probably just me. It's the best album from the artists suggested though.

Great poll! I love the addition of a post-metal band like Neurosis, and the no-wave Swans. Believe it or not, "post-rock" is about a whole lot more than long, boring, predictable instrumentals 😲 (also, nice to see zero votes for Explosions in the Sky!)

Slint, Bark Psychosis and Tortoise are also deserving of #1 honors, although my allegiance lies with Mark Hollis and the Talk Talk lads.

Might have also included Do Make Say Think, Gastr del Sol and Rodan...maybe even Isis or Hum
