No problem if it was on PA (being eval'd) i'd have it on my Top 10 Collab List :]

This is what i love about the PR/MR genre - the smooth transitions in structures and compositions. It's like water being poured into numerous vases, one after the other. 

I've also decided that my current al-time favorite MR/PR record is by the brilliant Pretend. Their record, Bones in the Soil, Rust in the Oil, has the jazzy fluidity i spoke of along with great guitar lines. It also has these dissonant moments where it's almost avant sounding. And more better, it has a light touch of that emo post-rock stylings like Youth Pictures of Florence Henderdon's second record. Highly recommended - obviously Approve

For Dr.Wu

And anyone else ;]

My favorite song from one of my most beloved bands. The lyrics influenced my writing quite a bit recently.

Back to the original question: for me, the reason why I don't listen to so much of Post/Math is the sheer overlap between so many artists that seem that they are playing exactly the same thing. Yes, I know there will be many that won't (possibly already in this thread) but it's that first impression...Embarrassed

Saying that, Oceansize is a band I like very much (but I think they are split now?)

Anyway, please keep educating us and I might just fing a band I really like Big smile

Bringing my baby back from the deeps. 

To answer Aapatsos, sure there are going to be overlap in similar styles in a somewhat defined sounding genre. Just like other genres here. It's not a problem, it is just when you overstate the similarities within the genres that i speak up.

If you like Oceansize, a more alternative rock band with posty/psych influences you may want to try out Handlingnoise.


Their album is free for download there and is a really high-quality release.

I would say alternative metal. Not sure how they could consider themselves post rock.

Check out Sumac, a new supergroup I submitted to PA a while ago. They share a member with Russian Circles and their songwriting style is somewhat similar especially in the faster parts, it's just filtered through a Godflesh-like industrial aesthetic which results in a rather different impression.

Makes sense that Brian is the member from RC. He is a monster and is the one that really brings the weight of metal to RC.

I thought he was more of a hardcore punk guy? Sumac's drummer is from a crust punk band by the way, maybe the industrial influence is just Killing Joke by way of Amebix...
