Default Godspeed You! Black Emperor

Hailing from Canada they are one of the more popular post-rock bands. They commonly have 20 or so minute tracks. Members from GYBE are found A Silver Mount Zion, 1-Speed Bike (which are both also pretty awesome) and atleast 10 other projects that I’m honestly not fimalir with. There’s not much for me to say about post-rock bands other than they have good builds and really nice when you’re sleepy or stoned. Um, if you want an upload just ask and I’ll to find a link for you. I’m not sure if they ever officially broke up but I think it’s safe to say they’re not going to release anything else.

I guess it's an acquired taste....but I find them dreadfully boring.

I completely agree with spinning, and it puzzles me as to why so many people find them facinating. Different strokes I suppose.

I fucking love Godspeed.
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven is such an amazing album.

Obviously you cant accept that some people have a different taste in music than you.

You too can be a genius by playing the same 4 notes for half an hour.
