Not something I listen to on a daily basis, but quality math-rock and caffeine have been my go-to choice for waking up and starting shifts at work. OP photo is a great choice. Been rotating between it, American Don, and Don Caballero 2.

Does it? Try sprinkling it in with your musical diet instead of occasionally binging on it.

>>71551925
Where can I find more like the drumming on this? Typical math rock is much too fast.

>>71551895
I generally find it to be lacking in feeling and emotion.
I dislike "technical" genres of metal for the same reason

What's crazy is these dudes were in high school when they wrote most if not all of their first album.

What did you guys think of this album?

>>71553315
i love monobody, i wish their split with those pyramid dudes wasn't so god damn expensive on bandcamp. like 6 bucks for their debut and 10 for the split? no way

>>71553381
coolio
do you know if those pyramid dudes got some solo stuff? i couldnt find anything when i searched

>>71553395
not that I know of, this is the first i've heard of them

>>71551895
Because the only good Math Rock band I'm recent memory was Foals, and they broke out of that niche almost instantly.

Fun starts at around 1:45

>>71551895

For some reason I can't get into this album as much as DC2

>>71552017
Have you tried the so-called "twinkly" emo bands that use a lot of math rock ideas?

>>71552017
have you tried self-inserting in the musicians' spot ie hand drumming, air guitar?
that's how you get technical rock and jazz most easily

>>71553315
One of my favorite math rock albums.

>>71553395
They're supposed to be dropping a full-length some time this summer apparently.

Math rock peaked in 2000 with American Don and Under Thunder and Fluorescent Lights.

Not listened to math rock in years but those 2 I posted are pretty awesome.
Trying to get back into my math-rock/post-rock after years of going mad on jungle.

>>71557196
>you have to play along on air guitar in order to get it!
i'm plenty open minded but i would really rather not

>>71557269
>have to
it helps. and it's fun!

This is very good, thanks for posting it anon

>>71557284
this is equivalent to "you have to be watching a sunset on drugs to it!" and i don't enjoy program music. at all.

This album sticks with me way more than their newer dream pop/indie stuff, i wish they would have gone for this sound more

>>71551895
don caballero is god-tier.
best tracks are details on how to get iceman and slice where you live like pie.

10/10

>>71552017
I feel like this only applies to the kind of "math rock" which is often erroneously tagged as such for being instrumental music. That kind tends to be wanky, boring prog like you said.
Proper math rock can be energetic, raw or mellow if it wants to be.

>>71559900
only the first track is good-core

>>71551922
wrong. you're listening to shitty math rock. brutal prog doesn't get old quickly.

>>71558237

Classic

>>71560222
bad opinion

>>71553315
I like this album a lot, but the band members are so lame. They make good music, but I would never want to make an album with these guys.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqCT1Rx63mw&t=1455s

>>71558237
Good shit, are you ready for the new album?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbPhrJYpZKQ

>>71552017
Some of the worse stuff can be. But man, stuff like Piglet makes me want to get up and dance.

>>71551895
Because 14yr old hipsters have an attention span of a week long and get their tastes from hipster websites which tell them what to listen to.

Those sites -which are really placing products- change their best albums of the year/decade etc every week. You do the math

>>71551895
thats not math rock
thats proto djent

>>71557125
Love it, For Long Tomorrow is my fav from those guys

>>71562219
xD

>>71561840
what sites are you talking about mane? Pitchfork or some shit?

>>71561004
what do you mean, how are they lame?

>>71562570
Yes, P4K and all the hipster garbage aggregators

rec me more like this? one of my favorite albums of all time and never found anything else in the genre that compares

>>71564200
Elephant Gym is the closest you're going to find. Toe are in a league of their own in how chill they are.

>>71552052
Never see this posted

You get a gold star

ngl japanese math rock has my heart.

THE by tricot has been on repeat for like a week for me.

I think when math rock tries to be math rock it feels cold as fuck but when it has less of an effort to be in backwards 7/4 and 5/4 for the whole song it sounds way better.

>>71558154
This

>>71558154
I liek, but too happy.

>>71563146
it's pretty niche/specific

>>71553315
listening on bandcamp now. Does anyone have the album in 320?
