Experimental, Jazzrock/Fusion, Krautrock, Psych/Space Rock Used to love Postrock until it got hijacked by all the sickening indie/emo kids.....those curious stick to Tortoise, Labradford and Mogwai (up to EP from 99). though Mono (Japan) is pretty decent too.

Symphonic would me my top. I consider it in the same category, but Italian Symphonic is quickly gaining ground, and may become no. 1. Zeuhl is also a new passion.
