10 BEST POST-ROCK ALBUMS

[@andysalbums]

Some great choices. There are 2 or 3 I don't know and will check out. A couple on my want list, too. Nice video. Cheers

[@The_Room_2_Doggys_Revenge]

My favorite one is definitely Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven from Godspeed You Black Emperor

[@masonvankraayenburg]

Solid list, props for adding BtEoT, hometown homies. They are usually overlooked. I actually started one of the first post-rock bands in Texas called Enloom. Currently releasing my debut “solo” album dedicated to post-rock and featuring many inspiring artists from the community. Take a peek.

[@C.good2damax]

Dope dude! Yeah man I love BTEOT! Check out my math rock video they are in there with a different album. Cool thanks I will check out your project and thank you for sharing! Stay up!

[@masonvankraayenburg]

@@C.good2damax They got such a fun unique vibe, it’s infectious! I will most certainly, dig the videos. Cheers!

[@emigrant1510]

Bro, no fucking way. We have the exact same #1! I swear "Those Who Tell The Truth" always gets overlooked on Best Post-Rock albums conversations. Nice to see it get some love. Will check out some of your other picks. Cool vid.

[@C.good2damax]

That’s cool to hear!!! So what your other top favorites?

[@nelsonaraujo86]

You a connoisseur. Never heard of unwed sailor, will check them out

[@kotaylor15]

Rock Action was the album that opened the doors of post-rock for me. I think it's SUPER underrated. Thanks for your list!

[@Kasim2k3]

Nice list. Sad to see no MONO in there. My all time fav is their 'Hymn to the Immortal Wind'. Burial at Sea is my all time favourite track.

[@C.good2damax]

@@Kasim2k3 yeah trust me I like Mono and ‘you are there’ almost made the list. Thanks for sharing your favorite album!

[@kcwatkins4377]

I'm better informed now. Thanks and peace, Kevin

[@ItBeHiggy]

I'm surprised there was no mention of Sunlight Ascending. I found them completely by accident and their track (Spring) This Was Your Place found me. It was from their album You Don't Belong Here. That track has a special place in my heart and it absolutely spoke to me on all levels

[@C.good2damax]

Never heard but I’ll check em out! Thanks for the share!

[@hero767]

Fully agree on the TWDY album. New others (both part 1 and 2) are both (extremely underrated) masterpieces. BTW, never hear of Wander, but this March song is extremely good!

[@C.good2damax]

Yes I feel you there! mos def on those albums. Yeah personally I love Wander and their 2022 was pretty damn good also!

[@hero767]

@@C.good2damax I have listened a lot to Wander due to this video. I really cant understand why they are bigger, their music is supreme!

[@C.good2damax]

@@hero767 most underrated post-rock band to date!

[@michaelmalone7231]

"Low" from David Bowie was one of the earliest examples of post-rock and really the whole Berlin trilogy was so influential to later punk, post punk and new wave adjacent genres.

[@tubulartopher]

Eskimo Kiss by Years of Rice and Salt is the song that introduced me to the emaculate desolation known as Post Rock. This song specifically has a slow build (it doesn't start picking up until the 2 minute mark), but it's great for when you're trying to study or be at ease.

[@wiltonzapata]

OMG, where´s Explosions in the Sky with First Breath After Coma?, i touch the heaven with that song

[@C.good2damax]

@@wiltonzapata love that track name this band doesn’t miss, though you can watch my video all EITS albums ranked and I explain lol

[@theandy2000]

Hard to argue with any of these, but thought for sure I’d see TWDY self-titled album near the top. Great list.

[@theandy2000]

Also just saw EITS for the first time a couple weeks ago. If the albums are 10’s, that live performance was a 15, easy😂

[@Eksayle]

Nice video. I guess I need to give Wander another shot because I didn’t love their 2021 album too much, I’ll have to try out March. I’ve also never heard of any the End of Tonight but that preview sounded great so I’m keen on listening to the full album this afternoon. Lots of great picks, too. I think Guidance is my favorite RC album, you nailed it. I think that EITS album you chose is something really special as well. Easily has the most “bite” of their discography. Also HUGE praise for that DMST pick. What a gem of a record. We’re overdue for a followup. Couldn’t possibly rank them but I think my top choices would be something like… • Jakob: Solace • Yndi Halda: Enjoy Eternal Bliss • The Evpatoria Report: Golevka Wondering if you had any thoughts on any of these lesser known post-rock names. I hold them all in high regard. Keep up the content. 👍

[@C.good2damax]

Thanks! Yeah I’ve heard of those bands you mention and haven’t gave them a listen. I heard they are classics for the post rock genre and will like to give them a listen and hopefully get lost in the albums.

[@Eksayle]

@@C.good2damax Cheers. 👍 Just wanted to swing by and say thank for that By the End of Tonight rec, because it's incredibly rad. Totally get what you mean about the energy it brings; took me back to when I was obsessed with Giraffes? Giraffes! and You Slut! amid my math rock phase. Great stuff, I can't wait to revisit it. Wander's "March" also treated me way good, better than I thought it would. I guess I owe Home another listen.

[@FoOtFoOt542]

Thanks for suggestions for further listening. I like familiarizing with various genres of music….mostly.

[@jamprosteve]

Yndi Halda & The Evpatoria Report are among my favourites, as well.

[@jcar801]

My favorite Album is definitely "Bones of a Dying World" from If These Trees Could Talk. A band from Akron, Ohio. Got to see them live this year and they did not disappoint!

[@C.good2damax]

That is a good one. I want to get that one on record someday. I’ll put that on my list. Thanks for watching!

[@jamprosteve]

Great video! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'll definitely check out the albums I haven't come across yet. For me it'd be almost impossible to rank these records, so without any particular order: - If These Trees Could Talk: The Bones of a Dying World - April Rain: Waiting for Sunrise - pg.lost: It's Not Me, It's You - powder! go away: laika still wants go home - Tides From Nebula: Aura - Toundra: (II) - Balmorhea: Rivers Arms - I am waiting for you last summer - Edge Party - 65daysofstatic - The Fall Of Math - The Shaking Sensations: Start Stop Worrying These tunes have shaped my identity through different periods of my life. There is always a place in my heart for them no matter where this life take me.

[@ClaudioGiulioTorbinio]

Lost Spiderland?

[@Hexus13th]

no MONO?

[@C.good2damax]

‘You are there’ almost made it. I just really love these albums more. Have you heard the new album? Pretty good

[@Hexus13th]

@@C.good2damax One More Step is my pick but its probly nostalgia talking. As for their new stuff I saw them live not long ago.

[@dogmanbitehurt8243]

How come there are no albums from the 90s, I feel like Post-Rock peaked there

[@C.good2damax]

@@dogmanbitehurt8243 I guess I was too young but I do like some old mogwai, tortoise, do make say think, and Godspeed. What are your favorites?

[@dogmanbitehurt8243]

@@C.good2damax I love the so-called First Wave Post-Rock (or Lost Generation for the U.K. bands) scene. It was such an original and eclectic movement, and it was the British bands that started in the 90s that Simon Reynolds referred to when coining the term “Post-Rock”, which he essentially defined as rock instrumentation for non-rock purposes. Some of my favorites from this era are: Disco Inferno - D. I. Go Pop (or really their entire discog from Summer’s Last Sound onwards) Gastr del Sol - Camoufleur Bark Psychosis - Hex Tortoise - TNT Stereolab - Dots and Loops Long Fin Killie - Houdini Moonshake - Eva Luna

[@C.good2damax]

@@dogmanbitehurt8243 wow I have only heard Tortoise, Moonshake, and Sterolab. Thanks for sharing your favorites. I will listen to the ones I have not heard.
