So because post rock led to the development of other genres, it's a cohesive and singular type of genre. Interesting perspective there, mate.

Well, post-punk does have little distinctions to it. Bat's argument could more easily apply to art punk, since art punk is very experimental. Yet, we can still tell an art punk album from a post-punk album and that from a hardcore album.
Most forms of punk are more restircted, but the point of some of them are to experiment. And if one experimental genre is different from the other, than they are separate genres or movements.

I think you have a little too much confidence in your ability for distinguishing the two. Afer all, you put The Fall, Television, PIL, and Wire on the art punk list when they'e all post punk.

I was going down RYM's list of art punk, and it was hard to find recognizable bands on RYM that weren't notable for both. Was I the one who submitted the original post-punk lsit? I don't think so...
But don't think I can't distinguish the two. It's not my fault everyone's voting specific albums to be both post-punk and art punk. The majority of art punk's popularity is from the 70's and early 80's, and although there are a lot of 90's art punk albums, post-punk bands were making more very famous post-punk albums even into the 90's. Siouxsie, The Cure, Nick Cave, and Echo are good examples. Plus, post-punk is much larger than art punk. The art punk I've heard is less production-based, and is really more like a "stripped-down" version of punk. Post-punk isn't "stripped-down." It's more rule-breaking.

Nope, but you made the art punk list.

Read the rest. It mentions how art punk is much smaller, and how it's a stripped down version of punk. I'll reiterate: post-punk isn't as much stripped-down as it is rule-breaking/bending. If a song sounds like a stripped down, slighlty experimental version, I'll label it art punk. It still feels like a punk album. Post-punk doesn't "feel" like punk. It feels like an experimental rock album.

All I'm saying is that you're going into all of this depth explaining how the two are different and all the while you mistake classic post punk albums as art punk.

RYM labeled them as both. So I went with it. An album can have two genres. I'm pretty sure we have albums with two or more genres that would fit into other areas. Boston: AOR, Arena rock, pop rock, hard rock. It would fit in all of those. If you want to replace the art punk albums, do so.
It's good to have a not so heated discussion.

Never said it wasn't a genre. It's definitely a genre. Just not a totally well-shaped one. Same with post-hardcore and post-rock to an extent. In it's simplest form, post just denotes the influence of the genre preceding it. NoFX are post-hardcore, meaning hardcore influenced. Of course, this is also incorrect genre speaking, as they don't experimet enough with the hardcore sound to be classified as such. But more timeline speaking, this is true.
