"post rock" crescendo's

godspeed moya?
dash and blast is nearly as good though.



  • Magic Hours- EITS

    Good Morning Captain- Slint

    • i should start listening to eits

      where do i start?

      • The first one

        Those who tell the truth will die, those who tell the truth will live forever

        and the one which was made before that but released after. How Strange, Innocence.

        I think you can still get The Rescue EP free from their website. It's pretty good.

        I find the last two albums a bit average. Although Your Hand In Mine is super fucking emotional awesome.

      • EITS can be incredible

        ..but it all gets a bit too similar after a while.

        The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place is quite obviously their best album but Those Who Tell The Truth.. is definifely worth checking out too.

        The debut isn't particularly interesting and i'm not bothered by the most recent one, but to be fair I didn't really give it a chance to grow at all.

  • your two

    also 'festival' from the new sigur ros album.
    maybe 'sleep' by gybe too.
    mono's '16:12' and 'the flames beyond'

  • glosoli - sigur ros

    threads - this will destroy you
    the only moment we were alone - explosions
    ratts of the capital - mogwai
    in the company of others - gifts from enola

    id give a nod to east hastings by godspeed, just because.

  • Mono - Com(?)

    Mono - A Speeding Car
    Mono - The Kidnapper Bell
    Yndi Halda - Illuminate My Heart, My Darling

    • Com is absolutely ridiculous

      It has three earthshaking crescendoes.

  • Liking this thread so far

    my suggestions are

    Explosions in the sky - Greet Death
    Mogwai - Ex-Cowboy
    This Will Destroy You - Burial On The Presidio Banks
    Maybeshewill - in another life, when we are cats
    Red Sparowes - Alone And Unaware, The Landscape Was Transformed In Front Of Our Eyes

  • Mogwai - New paths to helicon pt 1

    government commisions version

    You actually couldn't beat that in any song, ever.

    That said, I was listening to lovely allen by holy fuck and the bit at the end had the same effect on me but only because that was the exact moment i got on stage at primavera it it was like euphoria woah!

  • not sure if it counts because it is so sudden

    but 'she dreamed she was a bulldozer she dreamed she was alone in an empty field'

  • ...

    This thread is saying a lot.

  • sigur ros - the last song on ( )

  • good thread!

    Godspeed - Storm, Sleep and Motherfucker=Redeemer (Part 2)
    The Ascent of Everest - If I Could Move Mountains (iii) Gathered Hearts Rise and Sign at the First Breath of Dawn
    This Will Destroy You - Burial on the Presidio Banks

  • hmm

    iLiKETRAiNS - Terra Nova
    This Et Al - He Shoots Presidents

    but maybe a sneaky one?

    Hope Of The States - The Black Amnesias

  • Com(?) and The Kidnapper Bell

    are great shouts. Moya is also wonderful. As for Yndia Halda, Illuminate My Heart > Dash and Blast.

    Also:

    Mogwai - Ex-Cowboy
    EITS - With Tired Eyes...
    Grails - Silk Rd
    Detwiije - Misspelt Dutch Architect
