Post Rock Thread Genre • Page 65

Yeah, weird move to release an album on a Tuesday in mid-December.

It's very good, though.

 

I heard about this one from a year end list and really enjoyed it. Kinda like a slowcore Fugazi.

 

Is anyone else slightly bothered by the production on like almost all of Ranges' albums? It's always just a bit thin and tinny, never quite sounding like the crushing walls of sound I feel like they're supposed to be. And it's got to be deliberate on their part too at this point. They're relatively successful for a band in this genre (I think), and ostensibly have got a few bucks laying around if they're selling those fucking several-thousand-dollar chess sets which probably weren't cheap to make, so it can't be a budgetary thing. But maybe it's just me, who knows.

 

More metal focused but an instrumental rock album about Jupiter and 4 of its most-prominent moons:

 

I don't think they want to be that type of band, although I do wish they would go a bit louder at times.

I'm pretty sure at least one of the members owns/runs the Thousand Arms label and does most of the design work, so that's probably why they go overboard with the merch.

 

New Elephant Gym album out today if you like to get jazzy and mathy:

 

Love me some Elephant Gym

 

Suspension Bridge Workshop - 001

RIYL: Giraffes? Giraffes!, Town Portal, You Slut!, etc.

 

Summer Fades Away - June Yui

 

The Bedroom Cloud - Always Better To Move When It's Still Bright Out

 

Overhead the Albatross updates from the other week:

Album is out in the first half of 2024
They shot a video for the lead single Your Last Breath that will drop alongside album preorders
Late mixing stage
I would be shocked if it doesn't end up being called This Is Like Love

 

I don't think there was a single post-rock album that I really loved this year. Not sure if the genre is getting stale or if I just didn't listen to enough.

 

Not gonna lie, I didnt find much I put up high either myself

Hoping for some solid shit in 2024

 

I need to put this on tomorrow though, great band

 

shedfromthebody - Amare

Already been posted in the shoegaze and metal threads. This absolutely doesn't belong here, just like the EP from last year, but once again, she refers to herself (in part) as post metal, so fuck it. Technicality, bitches.

 

This is great, thanks for sharing

 

Some El Ten Eleven vibes from the new A Burial At Sea track:

 

Oh that's the good stuff

 

I love how it's a little menacing but also groovy. That part that comes in around the 2:15 mark just gets me.

 

The absence of a horn section in these first two singles is concerning.
