Who cares? At least it generally has better cover art than the black metal stuff posted here. At least half of what you said is applicable to bullshit like Filosofem.

blah blah I don't like black metal blah blah *cumfart*
Probably isn't controversial here but a certain group of posters bombarding us with post metal as of late makes me hate it even more than I did. I've listened to a lot of it throughout the years and I can't remember anything about it except it all does the same shit. Play the same sludgy sounding metal part for a while then go off on some ambient/post rock/experimental/idontfuckingcare tangent for 3-10 minutes, then back to the only metal part they know how to play and the vocals are usually a monotonous extreme metal vocal that I've never thought fit the music that well. The musically equivalent of watching my dick and hoping it will grow. It just isn't gonna.
Am I the only one laughing at Cannibal Corpse, Tool, and Pantera being considered the best metal bands?
That Artillery cover is probably the worst cover in Metal history.

Seriously, if you think that cover art is more displeasing than that of some of the br00tal death metal shite Krow posts, you have no taste.
Alright man, I'll take the bait.
Post metal requires the listener to have a certain appreciation of minimalism and feminine atmospheres, otherwise it will bore them to tears. Since you're into post black metal, one would think you'd appreciate substance over form, and I'm not saying that there are no shitty post metal bands, but there are definitely more quality acts than the Big 2 that so many listeners draw the line at.
Isis and... Neurosis? Who's the 2nd band?
When I think of Sunday morning newspaper comics I think of Melvins tbh, not Terror Squad.
