They remind me of Jaga Jazzist at times, by the way...

And also Trans Am.
Also, I've been operating under the assumption that you already listen to Oneida.
But that may not be the case.

(All right, this has vocals, but they're kind of submerged/subdued - a lot of other Ganger stuff doesn't)

goood stuffcame in to say these. And I'm hell over this stuff, it turned into 'indie rock without the words'. Could argue for days about how something so interesting became so goddamn traditionalist and WHITE. But anyway.hazelwould wrote:

And yea, I pretty much hate the whole math/post rock Russian Circles type stuff. No offense and I'm probably in the minority.

It's not all instrumental, by any means, but it's more or less pretty diverse and some of it doesn't sound like anyone else I can think of. Just take a dig through his bandcamp page; the dude is super-prolific.
Solar Gambling is one of my favorites by him. "Unicorn Skeleton Mask" might be my number one though. The Power of Myth is great too. Fuck it, I like 99% of his stuff.Achtane wrote:dat Poincare songunslinger_burrito wrote:I feel like I'm in the minority here with this one for some reason, but I think that Omar Rodriguez-Lopez makes some pretty cool shit.

agreed! Solar Gambling (while not post-rock) rules pretty hard!Solar Gambling is one of my favorites by him. "Unicorn Skeleton Mask" might be my number one though. The Power of Myth is great too. Fuck it, I like 99% of his stuff.
