I know I'm probably not going to find too many interested parties with this one, but I was curious to see if anyone else here listens to the band Caspian or a little post-rock in general. I have a good friend who has made a strong effort to expose me to the genre and listening primarily to metal I haven't found it terribly appealing.
However, he recently introduced me to a band named Caspian from Boston and they really struck a chord. It is really post-rock in every sense, but much of the time they feel like Explosions in the Sky meets Agalloch's Ashes Against the Grain sanz Haughm's often disliked vocals.
I know General Zod mentioned an interest in Explosions in the Sky's The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place a while ago, so perhaps I should be throwing the recommendation more specifically in his direction, but regardless, I think this band is pretty outstanding.
