Bossk World's End Girlfriend Stars of the Lid Efterklang Jackie-O Motherfucker On! Air! Library! Fly Pan Am Are all worth checking out as well.
Some of my favourite albums of ever are post-rock pieces: Talk Talk - Spirit of Eden* Talk Talk - Laughing Stock* Bark Psychosis - Hex Godspeed You Black Emperor! - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven Mogway - Mr Beast Sigur Ròs - ( ) etc. etc. Wonderful bands of limitless creativity and quality. I also like Giardini Di Mirò, an Italian post-rock band, everybody should listen to Rise and Fall of Academic Drifting. *: ESSENTIAL.
I'm currently in a post-rock band right now, if it interests you. http://www.myspace.com/gavriloprinciplovesyou
4 post-rock albums to track down: Foxhole - We the Wintering Tree Toe - Songs, Ideas We Forgot Hrsta - Stem Stem in Electro Below the Sea - Endings
They are one of my favorite bands. The Fall of Math and One Time for All Time are both great albums. Some other bands that are worth looking into in the Post-Rock genre are (some of these may have been mentioned already): Upcdowncleftcrightcabc+Start, A Silver Mt. Zion, The Samuel Jackson Five, This Will Destroy You, DestroyAllDreamers, Mono, This is Your Captain Speaking, and Yndi Halda (Yndi Halda is really, really good). Those are just some of my favorite post-rock bands. P.S Metal and Post-Rock are my two favorite genres of music.

'post rock', what a stupid genre name. technically, it can't exist, what with 'post' anything meaning after. can't have 'post rock' until rock's done with, and that aint gonna happen is it!
yeh, it's just a mean to identify a certain style of music. most labels don't make much sense anyway. power metal? what power?
Yes! I'm a huge post rock fan, I always hated metal but then I tried Bossk, and they were the perfect gateway band for me. Starts off like a nice post rock track, and didn't scare me away (but drawed me in to the louder parts). And happy to see someone posted about Yndi Halda, their ep/album is my favourite record of any genre! Amazing stuff.
