SteveXFR Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 This last year I've been getting more and more in to post metal so I thought I'd start a thread where nerdy metal heads can share some good stuff. My current favourite is Bossk, they were incredible at Arctangent a couple weeks back. I was absolutely blown away by their Sunday set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Bossk are brilliant, seen them a few times, last year at Damnation was great - they played Audio Noir in full on the Friday then filled in for another band who dropped out at the last minute on the Saturday and got Johannes from Cult Of Luna to join them for Menhir, which was epic Their new album is in my top five of the year so far I'm into a fair bit of post-metal and post-rock, the new Hippotraktor and Oh Hiroshima albums are very good too 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Smalls Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Just out of interest, is "post Metal" just like metal, but with a really long and sort-of ambient intro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveXFR Posted September 1 Author Share Posted September 1 The effects pedal boards are much larger as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm from the ISIS "Oceanic" era, so all my post-metal listening is over a decade old now [eep!] But I've listened to a few tracks from Hippotraktor, and I really like what I'm hearing.

Oceanic is in my top 5 albums of all time, I adore it - also part of the reason I play a Stingray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wreck Of The SS Needle is quite possibly my favourite song of all time. Julie Christmas's latest record has a similar feel to Mariner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm - I thought "That's a great into to the song", but 4 minutes in it appears to be the whole thing. And then a load of shouty stuff.

Yes, agreed she's got a similar vibe, having Johannes on there again helps - it's my top abum of the year so far and there's not much coming out that could dethrone it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
