Tell me about Godspeed You! Black Emperor

They seem like something I would enjoy, but I've never heard them before. Avoid? Worth a blind purchase?

Check out now!

Excellent post-rock, highly emotive, some of the most beautiful stuff I've ever heard. I would start off with "Raise your fists like skinny antennas to the heavens". Also stuff you should check out that are similar (if not better than GyBE).

A Silver Mt.Zion - This is our Punk ROck
Explosions in the Sky - The earth is not a cold dead place.
Sigur Ros - () , although they are all really good.

Can't really think of must more at the moment, but if you like anything beautiful, get it.

Shit. Pseudo intellectual rock. Yep, you'd probably like 'em.

Fuckin' A man, sold. :Spin:

my favorite non-metal band. perfect atmosphere, i'd recommend getting Lift Yr Skinny Fists first, and putting it on at night and absorbing yourself in it. mind-blowing stuff imo.
