So, going by what was said about tempos, time signatures and polyrhythms, math rock is basically complicated rock music?

i bet the dude knows his June of 44 by heart, he'll tell us when he sees the thread. gotta update the list again with yr "walking encyclopedia" stuff, you always come up with excellent but unknown bands, congrats. god, i've never ever listened to fellers union local 282, gotta lay my hands on that now is it a bit like BLINK 182? |

haha no.
The best way to explain it is ... a polvo that's a bit more intelligent mixed with some caroliner type weirdness mixed with some sun city girls-ish "don't give a fuck, let's record it" sensibilities... a truely genius band. |

i'm quite unfamiliar with the whole mathrock genre. polvo and don cab are the only ones I know. what about slint? some call it as a mathrock also. great band nevertheless. |

I dunno, I don't think slint totally fit in with anybody.
I wish I knew more bands that were slint-like... at least in the slow, methodical, depressing, speak-singing, lonely Kentucky darkness of their sound.. the only one who comes close (but doesn't sound anything like slint) is gastr del sol. |

I could see Rodan falling under 'math rock', but not Slint. Then again, attaching labels is an entirely subjective matter anyway...

just out of the top of my head:
Drill for Absentee June of 44 and of course, Shipping News. Their "Save Everything" still belongs to the top 10 records I've ever heard. Not so sure about the rest of their output, but you should definitely check this one out.

one precision that's really important : mathrock is supposed to be INSTRUMENTAL, usually.
you'll always find exceptions i know. |

truman's water are SLIGHTLY math rock to me, but more noisey post-hardcore, i listened to 'godspeed the punchline' this morning.
some call 16-17 math rock, but i consider them a free jazz spazz core type thing, anyways, they rock. dazzling killmen is the best 'math rock' band, if you wanna call them that, i like 'brutal prog' better. collosamite is a damn good indie noisey math rock band. cul de sac rules, but again, theyre music borders on so many different styles, not sure why anyone would pigenhold them in any genre. u.s. maple is a fucking amazing some what experimental somewhar noise somewhat math rock band anyone starting to notice that skin graft has something of a monopoly on this genre?

totally forgot colossamite and dazzling killmen.
they're both like jazzy noise rock or something... but they fit. |
