Experimental for a rock band with a generally catchy sound, yes. And I do know what I'm talking about. You can't see it because you're buying into the dredg hype too much. The songs themselves are inconsistent, with some just being downright bland and uninspired.

I'm buying into the dredg hype, that's funny. I was into dredg before you joined these forums and back when they were rarely ever talked about on here.

If anything you're the one buying into the hype using buzzwords like experimental.

No. CWA is a mediocre album.

Dimmu Burger 08-07-2007 03:24 PM

Anybody heard Jesu? I recently picked up their album Conqueror and found it interesting.

Eliminator 08-07-2007 03:28 PM

Shut the fuc[size=2]k[/size] up, you make a terrible elitist.

Of course, we spent a good load of time talking about them ITT. I love that band.

Sorry I'm a bit late, but it has a cool sound to it. Good chillin music.

I'm starting to really like Hydra Head bands. Ive liked Cave In for awhile, but they have a lot of good bands!

I can't believe anyone could call Catch Without Arms mediocre.

Why is catchy a bad thing?

Anyway, can we discuss post metal in here too? As you can see by my avatar I'm a big Battle Of Mice fan, anyone else like them?

Kage 08-07-2007 03:38 PM

Check out Mare.

I just have a hard time getting into Dredg in general.

A Dead Modernist 08-07-2007 03:53 PM

Anyone like Animal Hospital? Not sure if they fall directly into Post-Rock, but it has its influences.

camdizzle 08-07-2007 03:54 PM

Also Check out Do Make Say Think. I'm not sure if they've been talked about yet and I don't want to go through 118 pages to check, but for recomended songs:

The End of Music
The Landlord is Dead
It's Going to Rain
Minmin

Yep, that's a pretty damn good album. I still have to listen to Made Out of Babies (one of the parent bands of Battle of Mice) and see what I think about them. They also have Julie Christmas on vocals.

On Jesu's Conquerer: I appreciate Jesu, and they're interesting and pretty good, but their later albums are a little to synth-heavy (or whatever that is) for my tastes.

Which album(s) do you like? I'm pretty new to them.

Kage 08-07-2007 06:45 PM

Get Silver and the Self-titled.

jrowa001 08-07-2007 06:49 PM

Silver is my fav from Jesu

Concubine 08-07-2007 06:52 PM

Made Out Of Babies are pretty bad

bwnstl 08-07-2007 07:07 PM

[QUOTE=Dimmu Burger;15098352]Which album(s) do you like? I'm pretty new to them.[/QUOTE]

Silver is their best. Self-titled is pretty good. Conqueror is pretty good as well except for the aforementioned synth-heaviness.

Dimmu Burger 08-07-2007 07:58 PM

I don't mind the synth really. But I'll have to check out those other albums.

NemesisDivina 08-07-2007 08:14 PM

listening to Conqueror right now.

good stuff :D

NP: Jesu- Old Year

Dimmu Burger 08-07-2007 08:24 PM

I'm curious, what are you guys usually doing when you listen to Post-Rock. Cause given its sometimes sleepy nature, I try not to drive while listening to it.

NemesisDivina 08-07-2007 08:32 PM

sitting and thinking

Dimmu Burger 08-07-2007 08:33 PM

[QUOTE=NemesisDivina;15099006]sitting and thinking[/QUOTE]

Its funny, cause I listen to music so that I don't have to sit and think lol. It keeps my mind from drifting endlessly and overanalysing my life.

Concubine 08-07-2007 08:36 PM

use it as a background music

i like listening to post rock while doing homework

Dimmu Burger 08-07-2007 08:38 PM

[QUOTE=Concubine;15099039]i like listening to post rock while doing homework[/QUOTE]

Now I can understand that, its not too distracting.

NemesisDivina 08-07-2007 08:40 PM

The Door Mouse 08-07-2007 09:22 PM

How do you all feel about Laura-Radio Swan is Down? I'm downloading it right now so tell me what to expect.

Eliminator 08-07-2007 09:25 PM

you should expect sluts bursting into your room as soon as you click "play".

The Door Mouse 08-07-2007 09:26 PM

Why, thank you.
