^ Welcome to MB, TheWaitingRoom:)

Have you heard of a Japanese band called Te' ? They're some very strong post-rock, I'd give you the album name but it's really long and Japanese haha.

Edit: Ah found it, "Naraba, imi kara kaihou sareta hibiki ha ''oto'' no sekai no shinen wo kataru".

well I voted prog, but really I don't believe that such a style exists. I think it's called progressive because it sounds like anything performed before

I really feel that post-rock should be considered in this...

You'd put that under alternative.

I think it's more a important subgenre than rap-rock or hair metal, but oh well... i went Alternative.

well it's called post-rock cause it's not rock. it's music after rock, like when we say post-war.

Technically I suppose, but it really has essentially all elements of rock and roll... the term post rock seems a bit off.

I voted Punk. True Punk is raw, simple, pure emotion, not over produced, even has poor sound quality sometimes. Like Black Flag, Misfits, Ramones, Bad Religion, Dead Kennedys. :band:

Saying it's not rock would be awfully pretentious. Its sound is definitely no less rock than dozens of other obscure sub-genres that have been previously categorized under rock (see the sound of Krautrock bands like Can, Neu and so forth - often a lot more "post-rock" than the bands these days grouped under that heading).

"Post-genre", when used these days, does not seem to really exclude the music from fitting into that genre. Look at "post-hardcore" music. It's still essentially hardcore, the real idea being that it's merely moved on from what hardcore typically once was.

probably post-rock...
