>>69949866

>Grails

Grails is the shit

>That getting-stoned-at-the-monastery-feel their music creates.

Solid third wave band. What other third wave bands sound this good?

>>69949866
yeah

>>69949866
There are some gems, but I'm irked that a lot of the bands just use the quiet-loud dynamic

>>69949973
We all know Nirvana are to blame for that shit

>>69949991
>Not blaming Slint

the small number of exceptions that prove the rule

Maybe we should blame Godspeed since they gave them their seal of approval and now every post rock band is a sigur ros, Godspeed and Explosions in the sky wannabe

>>69950257
Godspeed just did atmosphere/crescendo the best, now every band wants to be them.

Not that I mind, I'm just saying

>tfw no bands try and imitate Talk Talk or Bark Psychosis

>>69949833
Too many bands that do the same thing over and over again.

That being said I fucking love Moonlight. If it wasn't for this song I probably wouldn't give this album a second listen.

Where's the line drawn between first wave, second wave, third wave, etc. post-rock bands?

Black metal and post rock have one major thing in common, they peaked in their first wave

>>69950293
Talk talk is interesting because how could some new wave/pop rock band progress into something so sweet and intricate

>>69950078
Hey thanks for that

>>69949922
thanks for the recc. me gusta a whole lot.

Is there any post rock that's not crescendocore?

>>69951414
Yes, lots of first and second wave, and Grails
