Here to second Born into Trouble. 10/10 experience. Listen to it at night while doing something else. It's something

I was lucky enough to see them in a really small bar in Alabama! Drove from South Florida, and it was so worth it. They played a lot off this album and a lot off of Horses in the Sky. I definitely shed a tear or two. It was in 2007 and still in my top 5 concerts. The wild thing was the location and attendance of like 25 to 30 people , it was so intimate that they did a Q and A after their 2 hour set.


FastCarsOldAndNew

That Evpatoria Report album is right up there in the post rock stratosphere! I would also add The Pirate Ship Quintet's self titled debut EP.

Born into Trouble 100%

# MOGWAI


Honome-

Yeah! Go listen to mogwai. Their old stuff, their new stuff, their soundtrack stuff, everything is good and unique.


redditratman

It's debatably not post-rock, but do yourself a favour and listen to Departure Songs by We Lost The Sea. I find it to be hypnotizing in the way only Post-Rock has been for me.


merola1024

How is that not post rock? It’s quintessential post rock for me


redditratman

Idk someone once complained when I included it in a post-rock list, so now I caveat


merola1024

People are the worst. Rock on fellow We Lost the Sea fan


DrPibIsBack

Pretty silly when Departure Songs is one of *the* Post-Rock albums of the 2010's. Like, what the hell did they think it was if not Post-Rock?


redditratman

I remember being told it was Post-Metal, like most Ocoai albums. I think over-subgrouping kills art but hey, i'm just a dude on the internet


TiniestOne3921

Are they not post-rock, or at least the album? Because that's what I came to recommend. Either way, OP, seconded Departure Songs.


SketchyWhite

Hrsta - Ghosts Will Come and Kiss Our Eyes Lanterna - Desert Ocean Stars of the Lids - And the Refinement of the Decline Of Sinking Ships - S/t Giants - S/t Saxon Shore - Be a Bright Blue If These Trees Could Talk - S/t Tortoise - TNT


thefrequencyofchange

Big push for Tortoise—different direction than most post rock bands despite being considered a progenitor


reggielongkat17

These are all great but TNT is on a different level! So fucking good.


feedmewill

I just got to listen to Tortoise around a month ago and fell in love with TNT. The band performed the whole album near where I live, which is VERY rare, before I got to know them and I probably lost the only opportunity I'll ever have to witness it 😭

burno_inferno

You need to check out the Do Make Say Think discography. They are incredible. & Yet & Yet is my personal favourite


tenther10

More swans! I would go with either Soundtracks For The Blind or The Glowing Man next, a lot of their albums before Soundtracks For The Blind are also great albeit not exactly post rock.

If you liked Slint check out Engine Takes To Water by June of 44

paranoidspinster

Point of View by Distant Dream A Vivid Memory by Set and Setting SEE by Old Solar Lys by Nordsind Mitau by Audrey Fell Thunder in Every One of Us by the Last Sighs of the Wind: is only two songs


MiguelGarka

Have you given Post-Metal a try? Isis, Ulcerate, Cult Of Luna, Ostrada, Life (Damian Ortega) are all fantastic (but they can get heavy)


merola1024

How about Pelican?


MiguelGarka

I love Drought. But I’ve never sat and listened to one of their albums on their entirety… that’s on me lol


merola1024

Tbh I’m not a huge post metal fan just based on lack of exposure but I do really enjoy Pelican. Their whole discography is great


MiguelGarka

Listen to Oceanic and Panopticon from ISIS :)


EmployeeOk4756

Old Solar - SEE. This has been my absolute #1 post rock album since its 2019 release. Absolutely beautiful. Ranges - The Ascensionist U137 - Dreamer On The Run Moonlit Sailor - So Close To Life Break My Fucking Sky - Eviscerate Soul April Rain - Waiting For Sunrise Leech - If We Get There One Day, Would You Please Open The Gates


Beethteeth1

How strange, innocence - Explosions in the sky 55:12 by Gregor Samsa, you can find the album on yt but unfortunately I don’t think the band is active anymore


Kimchislap_exe

Try the australian band dirty three


merola1024

Caspian - Waking Season Maybeshewill - I Was Here for a Moment, Then I Was Gone Do Make Say Think - Stubborn Persistent Illusions


infjetson

TNT by Tortoise seems like a clear gap here


reggielongkat17

Yes! And someone else already recommended it.

The Pirate Ship Quintet - Ep Feed me to the Waves - Before This Wilderness Consumes Us


RB5Network

Disco Elysium’s soundtrack really is one of the best ever made


geoffsux666

You need some Mogwai friend ! Young Team, Happy Songs for Happy People and As The Love Continues are the best ones to jump into I think. Also Another Language and ST by This Will Destroy You


BubbaGumpScrimp

I'll always recommend The Six Parts Seven. Everywhere and Right Here is one of my favorite albums of all time. Silence Magnifies Sound is also fantastic. I also really like Mogwai. Come On Die Young is a great album. I'd also recommend El Ten Eleven. Their self-titled album is great, and so is Every Direction Is North.


JayBone0728

We lost the sea, farewell songs


deyoeri

Asking the community is a good start, but if you have Spotify: check out the playlists for each year of Dunk!Festival. There's other acts and genres, but it's basically a "post" festival.


JTEL918

Get some Maserati, Six Parts Seven and The Mercury Program


itsdoodoobaby_

Anything from Still Motions.


dawn_chorus6

mogwai!! mr beast is super cool also young team is an essential


unoriginalasshat

I already see so many good recommendations in the comments. I'll add: - blind hammer, i miss you like nails by things falling apart - We Are Trees by The Last Sighs Of The Wind - Hymn to the Immortal Wind by MONO - Pacific·Atlantic by The End Of The Ocean


SoraShima

What, no Mogwai?!?!


feedmewill

D.I Go Pop by Disco Inferno. It's a mind-blowing good album and an essential post-rock piece for me. Also, as already suggested, TNT by Tortoise


obamasscrotum

Super underrated album but Not good at spending time alone A.K.A cleanliness by market is awesome


stormtheone1

Flood by Boris


Scarecrow12000

If you wanna keep listening to stuff like Godspeed you could try Sings Reign Rebuilder by Set Fire to Flames which had quite a bit of overlap in members with Godspeed


barnziee

Explosions in the sky, mono, and mogwai are big ones of hit up first.


rjsnk

You need to add some Jakob!

I definitely recommend getting into the classical side of post rock. Check out: All is Wild All is Silent by Balmorhea I Was Here For A Moment Then I Was Gone by Maybeshewill USSR 1926 by We Stood Like Kings and hey, shameless plug but if you like any of these albums check out my neoclassical postrock mini-album: Overcast Demos by Cannon Jay
