I think it's time we had a thread on it, not just to discuss the usual Godspeed and Explosions in the Sky stuff as good as it is but for the less heard of bands. Some of them I really like are:

Joy Wants Eternity
Mono
A Red Season Shade
65daysofstatic
Yndi Halda
Bell Orchestre
As the Poets Affirm
Monroe Transfer
Sparrows, Swarm And Sing!
Destroyalldreamers

[A_Perfect_Sonnet]

Yndi Halda is amazing.

[IndiElectronica]

check out a band i saw last night opening for Electrelane - were very good!

The Early Years

Something in the realm of Mogwai, Explosions in the Sky, Ride and Slowdive! What a mix!!

Check them out at http://www.theearlyyears.org.uk/Download.asp

The first single was 'All Ones and Zeros' and another good track is 'The Simple Solution'

- Other bands to add to your list

Mogwai
Tortoise
The Early Years
Godspeed You Black Emperor!
Fridge
Disco Inferno
Mouse on Mars
Jim O'Rourke

- I'm obvoisly a fan but mostly of EITS, Sigur Ros and Mogwai. I find myself getting bored after listening to most of these bands for too long as, let's face it, they get a bit up their own arses sometimes....

[Sneer]

Pale Faced Princess
Cassestte for Cassette
Edward Fitzgerald Complex
Jaga Jazzist

[cardboard adolescent]

Flying Saucer Attack
Bark Psychosis
Ui
Rachel's
Gastr Del Sol
Trans Am

[Sound Devastation]

Red Sparowes are my favourites, along with grails, gregor samsa, jeniferever and loss of a child.

[hookers with machineguns]

You guys should definitely check out Clogs...I wouldn't say they are a post-rock band, but a very beautiful atmospheric kind of band that most post-rock fans would really like.

There's a song on http://www.myspace.com/brassland to check out.
http://www.clogsmusic.com/recordings.asp (Please check out Lantern, it is an unbelievable album.)


Oh and no one mentioned 65daysofstatic.

[Fenixpunk]

Mono, Pelican and Tarentel... awesome line up, havent seen Tarentel but the other two are stunning live. (i prefered Pelican's doomier work but hey..)

we vs death ive seen too, thought they were a bit average but nevermind.
