That's on my radar. I'm digging EITS' "Earth is not..." and the opening track "White Noise" off of Mogwai's leaked album. That, Sigur Ros, Godspeed is more of my sound. I like Moonlight off the Mono album, gonna pick up that live album when I get a chance.
 
Anything you'd recommend that isn't borderline metal, sort of really uplifting post rock?

I got an email today from seetickets, saying that my delivery will be in the next five days? 

 Ticket? I've just seen Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Someone must have my card details I panicked.
 
So I go to the website (not via the email link), put in the reference number and...

Top list Matthew

  Yndi Halda and The American Dollar are bands I had not heard of and they are on Spotify. Presently listening to the post/metal influenced Maybeshewill
 
   

 

[Prog Rock Man]

Anthemic and atmospheric and a bit like Mogwai
 
     

 

[Prog Rock Man]

Excellent with its ambient, electronica style

Hey guys, just wanted to chime in and say thanks for this awesome thread! It's really opened my eyes to this genre, starting with ASIWYFA (which rocked my socks) and Mogwai a few weeks ago. I'm really looking forward getting deeper into the genre with the help of this thread. Thanks guys!!

Can anyone recommend me something like Turing Machine? I've loved Turing Machine for maybe 6 years now but don't really have anything else really like them

 

[Prog Rock Man]

Zida, try Battles, ASIWYFA and The Samuel Jackson Five.
 
EDIT add in Russian Circles.

Very nice list, Canoners, thanks for all the effort!

How are y'all liking the new Mogwai album? I can't say that I was all that impressed with it, not very much memorable stuff until the end.
