I also had my phase with that stuff. I was depressedly in love.

Apparently Yndi Halda recently announced their return.

I, too, had a post rock phase. listened to so much it all became a bit diluted and formulaic. especially with all these bands around town. I still think Red Sparowes and Actarus are rad as fuck.

I have one Yndi Halda album and it's really good.

Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada is the only Godspeed album I can make it through. Those two songs are insane though. The other ones I just want to turn off.

I actually really like Godspeed's new album a lot, it's a good shift in sound. :idk:

post rock revival?
if you were to judge that by how well our show went yesterday, the answer would be a big fat yes.

three instrumental bands on a bill on a tuesday night pretty close to capacity? impressive.
