09.17.08 | Sigur Ros, Mogwai, Godspeed, Mono, Gregor Samsa. If you want some good slight post rock influenced metal get the new Caina-Temporary Antennae. |
Crimson
09.17.08 | Explosions in the Sky, pg.lost, sleepmakeswaves, johnnytwentythree, followed by ghosts |
Golgoroth
09.17.08 | I'll make a note to look these up. Which of these have vocals? Just curious. |

09.17.08 | most post-rock dont have vocals, but Sigur Ros utilize vocals as just another instrument. some other good bands to check out that havent been mentioned yet are...
Hermelin
A.Armada
Laura
Lakes of Russia
Ef
Fossil
Giants
Glissando
God Is An Astronaut
Since (Time)
Yndi Halda
Toe |
Mendigo
09.17.08 | not much more to add. my favourites are:
Sigur Ros - Agaetis byrjun
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven
Explosions in the Glass Palace - The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place
Talk Talk - Laughing Stock
Mogwai - Young Team
Yndi Halda - Enjoy Eternal Bliss
Sigur Ros - ( )
while looking at your album ratings I guess a good way to start might be:
Suffocate for Fuck Sake - Blazing Fires and Helicopters on the Frontpage...
it's post rock mixed with post-hardcore and screamo stuff.
Another album to start for you might be the Explosions in the Sky one. They do have a certain punk-feeling. |
Mendigo
09.17.08 | damn, it's explosions in the sky of course, not in the glass palace (that would be a cool EP by rain parade btw) |
MassiveAttack
09.17.08 | honestly get in my profile and look at my post-rock list its only major downfall is no Mogwai |

robin
09.17.08 | godspeed you! are a sure way to get into post rock, as far as most people go. i think explosions in the sky are a good showcase of elsewhere, too. and jaga jazzist - what we must, because it shows a complete different side. |

Masochist
09.17.08 | No one said Caspian, either... |
armfarm
09.17.08 | to get into post rock you just need to listen to one song and one song only. Your hand in mine by explosions in the sky |
iarescientists
09.17.08 | just listen to ghastly city sleep
if you listen to anything else you'll just become a pretentious, elitist fag and i don't think anyone wants that |
jrowa001
09.17.08 | lol at people recommending post-metal. sorry but isis isnt post-rock and neither is caspian or red sparowes |
YouAreMySilence
09.18.08 | 1 is my second favorite album next to Sigur Ros - Untitled, so you should check that out. From that cd download Untitled 3, Untitled 6, Untitled 7 & Untitled 8. Also check out Mono - You Are There & Godspeed You! Blsck Emperer - Lift Your Skinny Fists. |
YouAreMySilence
09.18.08 | Oh also try Wintersleep - Welcome To The Night Sky & The Twilight Sad - Fourteen Autumns and Fifteen Winters.
Oh and if those Sigur Ros songs arent on lastfm.com they are on youtube. |
