post-rock.

you'll just sit there wishing you could still make love.
good question. i've always put it into the progressive indie / ambient indie catagory. more epic soundscape-like instrumentation, less prominent lyrics.

man i love godspeed. a silver mt zion, all of the godspeed offshoot bands. i just got glenn brancas ascension which is amazing, he was a purveyor of post rock, slint is pretty good to firsts in the post rock classifacation. but lets not abuse these words musics music dont label it
oh yeah i really like explosions in the sky to, and mogwai is awesome to. theres to much music to label.
hey look...YOUR NAME IS GODSPEED!!
I HOST A RADIOSHOW. i love shameless self promotion.
[URL=http://www.impact89fm.org/phpbb2/viewforum.php?f=14&sid=cff3959a9f91f6f16cfe51b5ebec8c89]go to it.[/URL]
i play music on it. you can listen online.
you love it. i can tell already.
hey where do u live and where is this radioshow hosted from you have some great songs on there
man you should never be reluctant to play godspeed, but people would get pissed so i see what u mean. to bad there music is so long, they are awesome, maybe you can dedicate a whole night to them show more people what they are like?
where do i listen online i cant find it
another genre i dont know about. yike. am i old yet?
life's pretty straight without vidalia :You_Rock_
i am from lansing. the show is from 10-midnight every sunday! and that is eastern standard time.
you can listen live if you go to [url]www.impact89fm.org[/url] and click on the listen live tab. the link that i posted was straight to the afterglow message board.
i didnt know you listened to the show still gucci!!! that makes this little fire oh so happy.
these post-punk-neo-rock-whatever-core labels that the kids of today put on everything are so fucking confusing. When somebody asks me if i listen to pre-blah-blah music, i have no idea what the hell they are on about and then i feel really old and i die a little inside.
d- dude, who is your Elvis? are they from Machine Gun Fellatio?
life's pretty straight without vidalia :You_Rock_
and rock and roll suicide is an awesome song by david bowie, wesley.
nah, not from MGF.
I got it by typing in "funny elvis" into the google image search engine and it was the first picture to make me laugh.
The funniest bit was that it comes from this guys site [url]http://dammitja.net/murgatroid/murg03.html[/url] and this guy dresses up as all these different movie characters and what-not (mostly star trek) and it really shows how sad the world truely is.
This is my favirote - look it's jim carrey from The Mask.

i like godspeed, i have "antennas to heaven" and the one with gasoline in the title, sunshine and gasoline i think it is but i'm not sure, on mp3, so i bought yanqui uxo and it's cool but not the same--much tamer and more ambient. i like the more experimental stuff that's on antennas and the other one, there, the samples of people talking and suchlike. can anyone recommend me any titles of either albums or songs to buy/download that are more like those?
[SIZE=1][QUOTE=ehquestionmark]Wow. This little thread got CRAZY. People telling me to abuse my girlfriend, people showing an alarming lack of respect for women as a whole, people questioning my masculinity in some kind of bizarre machoistic pissing-contest. Hell, I even got called stuffy. [/QUOTE]

I have Yangui UXO and I think it's great....so hypnotic, so amazing.
Posts don't rock. They do, however, hold up fences quite nicely.
small_fire, you should play the Satanic Ballerinas on your radio station! :cool: 
YOU FUCKED THE WORST, NOW FIGHT THE BEST!

get all the godspeed you can get your hands on. and the new album yanqui is no where near being tame. motherfucker=redeemer is an awesome song.

hey....cool avatar man. radiohead rules. i love godspeed but i guess i don't really know what else would be included in post-rock...so i can't really tell you my favorite post-rock bands
"There are problems in these times,
But, woo!, none of them are mine!"
hey you like neutral milk hotel? are u into any of the other elephant 6 collective bands, like olivia tremor control, and beulah, sunshine fix, apples in stereo. i know im forgetting a couple. beulahs awesome. ive only heard of a little of neutral milk hotel, they arent bad, and a lot of people dont like mangums voice but if you get over that portion of the music its pretty good
i really like of montreal and apples in stereo...and elf power's pretty cool. besides that, i haven't really heard any of the other ones, except for a few songs from olivia tremor control.
actually, i love jeff mangum's voice....they're just a great band all around. if you don't have that album, you should go get it right now.
"There are problems in these times,
But, woo!, none of them are mine!"
a couple of labels that have a bunch of bands i dig on them would be thrill jockey (the sea and cake, califone, tortoise, etc) and kranky (godspeed..., low, stars of the lid).

[url]http://www.brainwashed.com/kranky/[/url]
you'll just sit there wishing you could still make love.
constellationa and kranky are kinda the same but i like constellation to (kranky does most of constellations stuff on vinyl.) id have to say touch and go records because of bedhead and the new year.
well damn what can i say BEULAH makes me smile like a bloody mouth! and there is no better musical accompaniment in the summer than APPLES IN STEREO ther for you if you need a sunshine fix. GYBE is great i only heard one song, RAISE YR SKINNY FISTS.. and shit it really hit home. another really great band is Aarktica the guy is deaf in one ear and FUC it sounds tremendous!!!
broken social scenes awesome if your into the more experimental more instrumentation pop. it is bad ass
send me a demo adversary...i bet i can get you on the hourz 'o' power! your band is teh metal, right? pm me and i'll give you the mailing address if you are serious.
*COUGH...HACK..SPEW...COUGH* listen to my radio show tonight. online at impact89fm.org starting at 10pm eastern time *COUGH...SPEW...HACK...COUGH*
i dare you!!!
you probably have been calling me all this time and not telling me it was you. i know you are scared of me gucci, but you need to know that i am not a stalker and will not hurt you very much.
you are probably ED THE WELDER!!
ED THE WELDER calls me every show. he proposes to me and plays me sounds of frogs singing in his pond over the phone. ed the welder is 45 and divorced and has a daughter that listens to modest mouse. ed the welder sometimes goes up north on sunday and in order to get the station in ed the welder has to put tinfoil on his head and sit in his rocking chair in just the right way.
gucci ghost = ed the welder.
small_fire! i would listen to your show if i could convert time
Is Sigur Ros "post-rock?" Cause they are sooo dreamy. I'm into the Postal Service a lot right now. They call it "synth pop."
We'd all like some real friends, but what are the odds of that happening?--Cheif Wiggum
postal service i also called IDM. whats up with the fuckin labels nowadays
Everything's labeled, it blows goats.

right you are midnight rider
hey. i'll covert time for you little cultist. tell me where you are from.
gucci called me on sunday. he told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. he also asked me to play wu-tang. i think he really is ed the welder. gucci, change your name to legally ed the welder.
only 1 part of the above statement is true.


the term post-rock can suck it. any term like "screamo" "post-punk" "stupid-head" can suck it.
i know you didnt invent the term. and for the record i enjoy godspeed you black emperor...
what exactly IS post-rock anyway? like experimental stuff? instrumental stuff?
i'm confused. im gonna go listen to bone thugs now.
