Dark Side Of The Moon? Are you kidding? Pink Floyd is close to being Post-Rock on that album.

Uh, what are yours? DSOTM has moments of Pysch that could be considered very, very light 'hard rock, but really? Where?

That's a pretty stupid thing to say. So it's absolutely impossible that Pink Floyd came close to Post-Rock on DSOTM? I never even said they were Post-Rock.

Post Rock: Rock instrumentation for non-rock purposes.

Ok, that doesn't mean that bands outside of the original movement can't be close to or exactly like Post-Rock.

I'm saying it doesn't only apply. You said that.

Well there are certainly bluesy moments but I don' think any of it is very hard. I'm gonna' say bull**** on Blues Rock being a sub-genre of Hard Rock.

But being hard isn't a prerequisite for Blues-Rock. Hence the bull****.

Hard Rock is Blues-based, so if anything it's a Blues sub-genre.

I'm talking about Blues-Rock to. The Rolling Stones are Blues Rock, but not Hard Rock. Captain Beefheart is Blues Rock. As are tons of non-Hard Rock bands.
