how can an album so highly rated be so boring /mu/? i speak as a fan of post-rock, but this album nearly sent me to sleep after the first 2-3 tracks

It's comfy and beautiful album
it is you that is boring, and not the music senpai.
>i speak as a fan of post-rock
>this album nearly sent me to sleep
If this album nearly sent you to sleep you're not a fan of post-rock.
As someone who likes post-rock I found this one to be one of the least boring albums in the genres so it's interesting that you say that

im a big fan of gy!be, tortoise, slint, talk talk, swans' newer stuff etc
but i just cant dig this
>>63634543
I think the same bro
overrated stuff for plebs
>>63634543
omg that cover is fucking awful
spoiled the album for me
it's probably the closest thing possible to ascending to heaven
>>63634663
>literally judging an album by its cover
>>63634636
off-topic but why the fuck is spiderland considered a post-rock album
>>63634699
Because post-rock was something else before crescendocore became a thing and stole the genre name.
>>63634699
>Post-rock is a subgenre of rock music characterized by the influence and use of instruments commonly associated with rock, but using rhythms and "guitars as facilitators of timbre and textures" not traditionally found in rock.

wtf is that cello bullshit they are playing in track 3
they are dogshit and the cover is the most awful thing I have ever seen
>>63634636
You seem to be a fan of the harder, louder side of post-rock. It doesn't mean you're not a fan, it just means the quieter, happier, more orchestral side isn't as appealing and/or exhilarating
>>63634543
I dislike this album but for other reasons. I hate a lot of the awful melodies on it
>>63634543
WHAT A BRICK BRO
i can handle with the intro and the 4 minutes song the rest of the record is a sleeping pill
>>63634699
muh soft loud dynamics
I wouldn't consider it post-rock in the same sense as other first-wave, since it came from the atmospheric side of post-hardcore instead of experimental rock.
So you finally figured out how bad poseurcore is huh?
>>63635098
I don't think this album has enough potential to be misconstrued as being pretentious for it to be something that could be called poseurcore
>>63634543
Its post rock for girls. Math rock > post rock all day every day

>Math rock >>> post rock
>>63635405
t. contrarian
Math rock hasn't been relevant since the 90s. Post-rock still has Swans and neo-GYBE keeping its ass alive
>>63634751
anon just nailed the problem op has.

Math rock is way more experimental. Post rock only has one style "muh eerie grey aesthetic" (there are some exceptions). Math rock can be sugary sweet, emotional, quirky, wild and completely crazy.
