'Bark Psychosis invented post-rock not these guys and are 100000X better anyway'



you seem like a nice guy but what the utter fuck is this



bark psychosis are HUGELY influenced by talk talk and hex came out after spiderland anyway

Bark Psychosis were quite active and noticed before Hex; and I'd debate that the post-rock aesthetic
(not sound) was really born with Bark (and then definitly installed by this) but that's def open for
argument

Edit: Bark Psychosis were also the first band that were coined by the press and critics as "post-
rock", first direct appearance of the term does justify my point in at least some way, I don't think
I'm being wildy absurd here

the gist of my posts is basically listen to talk talk already dammit

I do don't worry mate, the gist of my post is listen to fribbin' Bark Psychosis (and especially
Dustsucker,
since it's better)
edit: K rejamming Laughing Stock and K I don't jam Talk Talk enough

i'm a big fan of both albums, personally prefer hex but you can't go wrong with either

definitly, 21 minute one track ep Scum is also a curiosity

haven't heard, will check

legit pity people that don't grasp the full amazingness of this record
it's fucking special
I really don't care about its influence and don't anyone dare compare them to refused again omg

Talk Talk are an objectively 5/5 band but I don't know I've never connected with them on an emotional level

Who compared them to Refused?

it's got some of the magic of the LP's but it also definitly takes it's time with all sorts of ideas incoherently bubling there and there in some sort of overlong free exercise. It's really worth at least a spin and has since kinda grown on me

maybe read my post properly and learn to ornette coleman before you get snarky, i said shape of JAZZ to come.



and if you can't connect on an emotional level to something like inheritance or new grass then our pity is mutual

goddam

Whoever compares this to Refused ought to be horsewhipped

no one compared it to refused

sorry

Slint - The Shape Of Post-Rock To Come (lol), shame that prophecy didn't really come true, otherwise post-rock would have been much more ballsy than most of the shallow clouds the genre tries to sneeze out these days)

i think slint were probably the most influential of the early post-rock bands though, there's few who

are able to mimic talk talk/bark psychosis effectively but plenty who've nicked slint's heavy guitars

and rapid dynamic shifts

agreed, yet the punkier sonic youth side of Slint is almost never absorbed wich is weird
