Music Thread

I've been on a post-rock binge. My favorite bands along this line are Godspeed You! Black Emperor, World's End Girlfriend, and, of course, Explosions in the Sky. I don't expect this music appeals to everyone though.

Good suggestions - I hadn't heard of World's End Girlfriend before and quite enjoy it.

For other post-rock suggestions: literally every song by the Evpatoria Report is worth listening to, IMO. The standouts being Eighteen Robins Road, Naptalan and it's immediate sequel Vokshod Project, and Taijin Kyofoshu.

You're the second person to recommend me them so I finally listened to their music and yep. It's good.

Going Down by Jake Chudnow-- medium high energy electronic music in 7/8, very pleasant and has space exploration video track.

Enormous quantities of obscure old disco from Burning The Ground, most of it terrible but some of it really amazingly good.

"Hallelujah 2000", however, is still holding the prize for worst record I've heard this year. I lasted until the banjo solo.
