Mogwai

[Jaar-Gilon]

can anyone advise me on bands that are of the same calibre and in the same vein as Mogwai? i've been trawlin(slowly) for a while now and cant find anything as good

 

[Barefoot In The Dark]

try: godspeed you black emperor, do make say think, explosions in the sky, sigur ros.
as far as post-rock goes, i think these are the best in the genre, along with mogwai.

 

[Jaar-Gilon]

i've heard sigur ros, they're the one's that sort of made their own language arent they?Icelandic or something

 

[speed]

A silver mt Zion

explosions in the sky are pretty damn good i would say

 

[Krilons Resa]

Magyar Posse

 

[Arrakis]

Explosions In the Sky

 

[AndICried]

Mono and Tortoise are my favourite post-rock groups. Oh, and who could forget - Slint.

 

[unknown]

Explosions In The Sky and Mogwai are both excellent

 

[Scourge of Malice]

I think theyve all pretty much been mentioned so I second all of the reccomendations

I dont think Mum was mentioned

Does anyone know if there are mp3-samples from the bands A silver mt Zion and Mogwai available somewhere on the net? I'd love to hear them and the records are hard to get ahold of!

A silver mt Zion is somehow related to Godspeed You Black Emperor!, right?

 

[Barefoot In The Dark]

A Silver Mt. Zion is the side project of at least one (that I know of) of the members of GYBE!. i really have no clue where you can get mp3. Try the Constellation records website?

On the topic of post rock, has anyone listened to The Autumn Project? I'm debating on whether to pick up their CD. Also anticipating the Red Sparowes CD next year.

Hey, I am getting ready to be a Grandpa.
For my grandson's christmas present I would like to have
some great music for his first year in the crib.
Mogwai, Sigur, and Explosions seem what I want him to hear (among
some classical and jazz stuff I already have recorded for him).
What is the best Mogwai?
Same with Explosions?
Or anything in this gender really.
