That's a completely acceptable reason too I think. I don't really have any clear recollections of sections of songs from any of the Godspeed You! Black Emperor songs I've heard. Granted I can see how the band can appeal to so many people and earn the praise that it gets, but it just doesn't deliver on the sound that I want in my rock music. But for mellow easy going and embracing music, the popular post-rock bands are certainly the way to go. That's not to say that every post-rock band I've heard is boring though, there's a really good Norwegian band called The Low Frequency in Stereo that will provide all the rif***e you could want from a post-rock band.
