Prog = odd timings and chord progressions in the context of traditional songwriting.
Post Rock = odd timing and chord progression in the context of doing the opposite of what a traditional songwriter would (usually ends up meaning its just really slow and droning...though there are exceptions) Math Rock = Odd timing and chord progression with absolutely no regard for traditional songwriting...the math writes the music, basically. Other people may have other opinions on this, but that is how I distinguish them in my head.

Haha that's one of the better descriptions of math rock and post rock I've heard.
As far as avant-garde goes... I've always looked at it as more of an umbrella genre that encompasses a collection of different, but kind of similar genres. Kind of like how "Extreme Metal" encompasses death metal, doom metal, black metal, grindcore, gore grind, death/doom, blackened death metal, etc. etc. |

Don't be ashamed. "Breath" was a jam.
