POST ROCK SUCKS... ALL OF IT
Oh c'mon. Talk Talk, Maudlin Of The Well and Kayo Dot are frequently classed as Post Rock bands and are far and above the cliched instrumental 'crescendo' sound that seems to be the epitome of Post Rock these days.

I myself have distanced myself from the genre due to the huge amount of faceless copycat bands making Movie instrumental soundtracks but there are or have been still a few decent bands around that push boundaries and have their own identity.
