If you want a genre suggestion, I'd recommend Deerhoof for placement in either eclectic or crossover and emphatically not for post-rock or math-rock.

The best suggestion - for both bands you've posted about!

This is the second thread you started about missing bands ... and both sound like complaints. Please don't deduce from the fact that a band is missing that we don't want it here ... there are thousands of bands in the archives, and the genre teams have evaluated hundreds of bands in this year alone (have a look at http://ratingfreak.com/home/progarchives.xhtml).

Deerhoof is a band that I've been looking to get into more. I think this post might have convinced me

If anyone has ever heard a deerhoof album, they would recognize it immediately as prog. There are many obvious references to Crimson and Yes on every album. And what's better is everyone in they're band is just sick with it. Drummer is absolutely phenomenal. Listen to the "milk man" or "Revielle" albums and you will be sold on they're necessity to this site before the first thirty seconds are up.
-Just tryin to make sure everyones modern prog experience is complete.

P.S. Battles is on here. Saw them twice live, I wouldn't miss them if they come by... Same with the Fiery Furnaces.
