Post-Rock

Post-rock uses rock instrumentation but disregards typical “rock” song structure. Mostly instrumental, a typical track features quiet arpeggios around simple chord progressions that swell into rousing crescendos. Read more…|Edit this Artist photo: Tone

@Colettte I don't think people are saying it's boring because there aren't any lyrics, just that it's boring

For me, it's the perfect background music when I'm studying or just trying to relieve stress. [2]

@elitistarsehole: I find your analogy very interesting, although I don't agree with it entirely. I assume post-rock or whatever you call it is not for everyone, but some people can really enjoy listening to it. I guess it just depends on which mood you are. For me, it's the perfect background music when I'm studying or just trying to relieve stress.

It's stupid to say that music is boring simply because there aren't any lyrics. Half the time they're just meaningless filler anyway.

I don't know what "post-rock" is, really. It's just a made up name. But I like Sigur Ros and Mogwai.

"math rock" is the dumbest genre name ever. Possibly even dumber than "post rock" Anyways, Long Distance Calling and Daturah need more love. Germany bringing the quality!

very monotonous music. only some groups are making something of themselves. like mono. 80% of the others listen as the creation of a single group.

if you don't like post-rock, well...feel free to NOT post here. If you like it, good for you. It doesn't matter if there are some people who think is soulless or boring...Sigur Rós and Mono are still blowing my mind like the first time I heard them
