Yeah post rock can definitely be boring, tremolo picked guitars with reverb is a bit of a joke nowadays. But there are alot of interesting bands cropping up like this one.

Last two by this will destroy you were pretty great as well.

I’m so grateful that in the forms of metal I listen to, guitar solos seem to have mostly fallen out of fashion.

crowbar with guitar solos would tip them over into cheeseballs territory

sans solos it’s just right

I like the idea of post rock and for example bark psychosis is pretty cool. However the way the genre evolved into a very distinct, very narrow sound is dissapointing. There’s a ton of other genres that use rock instruments to push the boundaries of band based guitar music. Post rock in the end is just rock.

This got me started. I can’t in good conscience condemn it.

Glitchy drums. So far beyond human that it no longer feels real to me.

It’s got no place on electronic music.

In fact anything bringing too much melody is usually on dangerous ground.

not a technique but a sound: Tom’s
I never really find myself using Tham and instead just like to layer multiple percussions to fill up my mid-freq drums.

chords with four notes in. THIS ISN’T BLOODY PROG.

It’s right.
Seventies and eighties have been the golden age of guitar solos, in the nineties they begun to disappear. Today’s guitar solos (may be good or bad, doesn’t matter) all sound vintage and nostalgic.
