Minus the Bear got softer with each album, but I do feel that their first is definitely math rock, even if it's not as aggressive as many of the others in the genre. I guess it's equal parts indie & math.

Good call on Faraquet, I seem to remember a good bit of people mentioning them when I first joined MB. I'll add Medications to the list, then. To me the two are as much post-hardcore as they are math, though.

Blah, all these genres intermix all the time.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
