you boys should share your love of US indie music with those at Pitchfork. Anything by Wilco and the bands you list get wanked over repeatedly - not my cup of tea though, i think its pretentious rubbish!!!

Pitchfork are ****s, they act like stupid fanboys not the kind of thing you want from music critics!

Bands like Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Explosions In The Sky are post-rock, since you like Queen and Bon Jovi i doubt you'll like them. Lots of instrumentals which last for half an hour!

The post-rock band you're most likely to have heard of is Sigur Ros

What is the definition of "post-rock". How does a band become placed in that genre and why the name?

What is the definition of "post-rock".

It's short for "deaf as a post rock".

Going through that list, I've only ever heard of Bjork, Mogwai and Sigur Ros. :icon_conf

 

[Melton Fox]

"using rock instrumentation for non-rock purposes, using guitars as facilitators of timbres and textures rather than riffs and power chords."

Well that's sorted that out then
