09.03.14 | Probably the thing about post metal is that it doesn't really get old. Specially with those landmark bands that basically give the genre it's name they always seem to make things their own way, which makes them all standout. For example, you have Rosetta's approach with spacey atmospherics coupled with an omnipresent rhythm section that exudes complexity and then you have Cult of Luna combining Sludge with post rock instrumentals but without that post rock climax based mentality. And then you have Neurosis which also have their thing going for them.
So I find post metal to be one of the only genres where despite the fact that many bands still make music under the tag, it will never get saturated like post rock or screamo are getting today, or like djent. It branches out to so many forms of music, and so many influences. That makes it anything but a one trick pony kind of genre. |

09.03.14 | Post metal was cool when I first heard it but it all sounds the same now. |

09.03.14 | I still find newer Intronaut hard to classify as post-metal. |

09.03.14 | To say it isn't gonna get old anytime soon is silly since it's already tiring as fuck.[2] |

09.04.14 | relinquished as a genre noob would you mind explaining the difference between atmosludge and post-metal? just saying "u got your 8's and your 62's" doesn't really help, I mean look at metalcore - you got your converge and your killswitchengage |
Relinquished
09.04.14 | the difference is in the amount of ACTUAL sludge in the music. I used to think that just cuz there's
dynamics, crunchy guitars with twinkly bullshit, and harsh vocals doesn't really make it "post-metal".
but now that's the norm so the separation is necessary. |
danielito19
09.04.14 | that makes sense linq; I've heard a few of these (avagant's roommate) and was confused about how separated many seem to be from actual sludge metal. thanks! |
Relinquished
09.04.14 | if u looked at my lists there's a reason some of these didn't show up |
RogueNine
09.04.14 | I think "atmosphere" is a lot more encompassing for post-metal than "sludge." That's the kind of imagery I get when listening to this stuff. |
