I believe it was 2010 when I saw them.

The term post-rock has evolved from describing bands like Tortoise and Stereolab to atmospheric instrumental rock, unfortunately. Pretty drastically different things.

I rated this a 2 which I think was harsh in hindsight, but I really can't get into Tortoise's wanky take on Post Rock.
