Just like punk in the 70's was a reaction against the pretentious overblown prog/metal that was flooding the music scene, so too (in my opinion) is the rise of post-rock a reaction against Nirvana's introduction of simple, punk-influenced rock back into the mainstream, overwhelming the overblown hair-metal and metal that was there.
Or something to that extent.
