Sabrage, have you listened to Mogwai's Happy Songs for Happy People? It is to me their only essential work.

 

[Sabrage]

I probably listened to it about once or twice, and I never really got into it... I'm not against checking it out again. Does it have vocals? I think that's what turned me off the most.

12Twelve is very nice and I like Explosions In The Sky and A Silver Mt. Zion.
I also think World's End Girlfriend is sheer genius though I guess it doesn't really qualify as Post-Rock, it's in a class of it's own, never heard anything like it.

There are some heavily processed vocals on "Killing All the Flies", but that's it. Perhaps you have it confused with Mr. Beast?

The Mono/World's End Girlfriend split (Palmless Prayer/Mass Murder Refrain) is one of my top 5 post-rock albums... I guess I hadn't really considered getting more World's End Girlfriend albums though. Might just have to look into that.

The new Mogwai album seems rather uninteresting. They developed their approach again which I generally see as a good thing but it doesnt strike a chord. Also I think my interest in this genre is slowly fading. Im choosing more and more for happier vibes.

Mogwai never impresses me, they are quite boring. I highly recommend Daturah to those who have not check them out yet. Their first album is dreamy and the second album is epic.

Do you mean Datura, or is there another band called Daturah.

If the former, then I agree. You'd also be the third person to have ever heard of them I've seen.

No, there's another band called Daturah. Just with an H.

Bit of a thread bump...

It hasn't been mentioned in this thread, but Elf Fatima is also quite interesting.

Anyone here into The Mercury Program? Their new album Chez Viking should be out soon.

Hey guys, new to the forum.

Has anybody checked out the new Do Make Say Think side project Years?

I think it's quite good, you can download a free track from the album here, enjoy!

Arts & Crafts: Years

I am not too much of a fan of this genre. I prefer post-metal like ISIS, Rosetta etc.

Anyone checked out Long Distance Calling? Its nothing ground-breaking or new, but the melodies are good, dare I say catchy? Their albums seem to be quite well produced.

I've been listening to a lot of Long Distance Calling lately, actually. Avoid the Light is a great, great album.

Actually, I heard about that band from your thread about Cloudkicker. Thanks for the recommendation. Good band to discover.
