Droppin opinions.

I saw Russian Circles last week, they were very good but they seemed a bit p[B]i[/B]ssed off with the sound for the whole set and played like 50 minutes with no encore.
Is that normal or was it because they were annoyed and cut it short?

anyone here likes toe?

I like Explosions in the Sky. They were the first post-rock band I listened to. That said, there's certainly much better bands than them.

Everyone on earth should do this, actually.

Yeah, its a fantastic album.

Also, the new Toe is pretty outstanding.

[COLOR="Blue"]So has anyone listened to Rosetta's new album [I]Wake/Lift[/I]? I was a huge fan of [I]The Galilean Satellites[/I] (Itinerant/Ross 128 favorite song combination by far) and was wondering if anyone downloaded the leak? It's been out for a little over a week now so I'm sure some one here has.

I've listened to the album a couple times through now but I'm just not feeling the same way about this that I did with their first. I can't quite put my finger on it why though.

I just got hold of F#A#infinty. Its pretty quality.

[quote=big80smullet;15310780]I just got hold of F#A#infinty. Its pretty quality.[/quote]That's probably my least favourite Godspeed album. Not that it's bad, but it's never really stuck out for me like the rest of them do.

Just listening to the end of it now (the last few minutes of Monument). I can definitely say it's solid and the atmosphere is just awesome. How it compares to their other album I don't know.. I don't have the second disc of that for some reason, and I couldn't really digest it all the first time round.

I've sent it to the DU.. but, does anyone want it NOWNOWNOW?

I'm gonna give this one another spin with some Sennheisers :)
Got a bit distracted the first time.

Talk talk's last two album releases anyone?

I need to get [I]Laughing Stock[/I]. I've got [I]Spirit of Eden[/I] though, which is alright.

I'd say Yanqui U.X.O. is their worst. That's the only one that I don't really listen too..

Yanqui has one good song

Laughing Stock is one of the best albums ever made.

I've done two Rosetta-related things this week.

First, I downloaded the official rip of the overlayed Galilean Satellites (so I don't have to sync anything up). Holy.Fu[SIZE="2"]c[/SIZE]king.S[SIZE="2"]h[/SIZE]it. The album was fantastic already, and playing both discs at the same time just put all the amazing-ness into hyperdrive.

Second, Wake/Lift is fantastic. Every song on there is incredible. And because the song lengths are a little bit shorter it's a lot easier to digest right off. The only slightly weak track is (Temet Nosce).
Because of this, I ordered the album from Translation Loss' site, and I get a bonus disc, t-shirt, and poster out of the deal as well. Sweet.

been listening to much Ghastly City Sleep lately.

That's a good band.

Do they have more than their S/T? I'd google it, but this forum is stagnant enough as it is.

that first part of your post doesn't make much sense sense but if you're asking what I think you're asking, then the answer is no.

My favourite post rock bands are Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions In The Sky, Do Make Say Think, Caspian, Pelican and Russian Circles. Pretty generic but hey.

I really don't like Do Make Say Think.

/non-ninja edit

uh yeah, that's a shame then.


And DMST took forever to get into, at least for me. I passionately disliked them for half a year, then finally understood that their focus was completely apart from the rest of the post rock scene. That's when they clicked for me. They're thoroughly enjoyable now.

Hmm, I'll give them a chance then.



Really diggin' Callisto lately.

[QUOTE=XMII;15359631]I really don't like Do Make Say Think.[/QUOTE]

I don't really like them either.

What have you guys heard? You, You're a History in Rust is my fave.

Jakob's Solace is interesting.
