Only 1 band comes to mind when I hear *crescendo-core* where I think "yeah they did that
right"

I like Battles a lot, but I consider them an enjoyable exception in a realm that's inherently wanky and boring.

I loved the books and Zammuto, if that counts as in the same realm. Granted the books have been doing it longer than Battles.

will check it out, thanks
just checked out this band. they definitely have some very Battles-ish parts. they also do some old school Bitch Magnet/Slint type stuff too. I'm not big on the clean/tappy end of math rock, but they keep it interesting most of the time. I'm not blown away, but, all in all, a pretty decent band!

^this describes 99% of Texas post rock/worship bands.
Also how did P&W become synonymous with post rock?
