...

yeah, actually

this isn't the only math rock album you've listened to, right?

Which ones

this one is really different but pretty great

...

of the ones in the chart, i would assume
>tweez
>at action park
>what burns never returns + 2
>mirrored + gloss drop
>yank crime
>today's active lifestyles + exploded drawing
>all hail bright futures

No I've listened to that, ben hur, don cabalero (2 and what burns...) , american football, Animals, cadwallder, glass drop, and a minor forest. The only one that i think is as good as spiderland is flemish alt

...

to be fair, i like spiderland, but i don't think it's the greatest album in the genre or even one of the greatest albums of all time - it's just good in my pov

idk if it's your all-time fav, but if it is, then that might be one of the big reasons why you're having trouble finding something as good

if it's just a good album to you, then idk what to say apart from that it's just differences between me and you, i guess

pic related and this are so fucking dope

Stop

i always see this record at this record store near me. the cover interested me... i'll have to finally listen to it

i keep seeing this meme

Tropics and Meridians - June of 44

Nope this album is an exception to the rule. A bar of gold in a sea of shit.

I personally think this is much better than Spiderland

yeah this is a great fucking album i agree

if you like spiderland you'll love this

>girlfriends - self titled

...

this

yes definitely this album is great and nobody here seems to mention it that often

the only worthwhile album of foals

l-link? user-kun

...

Fucking agreed

yes

who is this?

Yes
toe.

Objectively

This one, OP.

Those vocals are insufferable. The guitar parts aren't bad per se but they just sit them the entire fucking song on loop with very minor development. The vocals are really bad. There are some moderately interesting percussion moments. No rhythmic flair, apart from the aforementioned drums. Vocals are annoying. They(?) start going in some interesting directions, like the end of Untitled #6 for example, but never commit or go anywhere. It includes a dudesyntharpeggioslmao track (that's a bad thing). A lot of the track titles make me cringe but that's just superficial. The vocals are awful.

Probably a 2/10. Would have been a 3-4 without the vocals.

The album is called "For Long Tomorrow", artist is "toe".

This sounds like an extremely poor Elephant Gym. Listen to that instead.

OP please listen to:

Rodan - Rusty
Explosions In The Sky - The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place
Shipping News - save everything
Shipping News - Very Soon, And In Pleasant Company
June Of 44's albums except for Anahata.

>finished a 50 essential math rock albums chart a month ago
>theres another one
The ride truly never ends

There's a first one?

Nice going user, that must have been interesting. Did you learn anything?

Theres some overlaps, but theyre still distinct from each other.

100% agreed

I learned that there is a shit ton of music in any given genre in general, and that more often than not you will find something that blows your socks off if you look hard enough.
I found my favorite band, toe, from the chart

And neither chart has Rusty that's a crime.

Awesome. I'm listening to For Long Tomorrow for the first time as we speak. Pretty nice so far, drums are so active.. almost jazzy at times. Melodies are gorgeous but I'm hoping for some more development or it could be at risk of getting lost in all the "pretty clean guitar" albums out there. Only half way through the third track though.

>no one mentions Thee Speaking Canaries
C'mon guys. In all seriousness if you enjoy Don Cab or Storm and Stress give them a shot. Thee Speaking Canaries was basically Damon Che's side project from Don Cab. I don't know how to individually link the album downloads from this guy's mega but here is the link to his stash.

Scroll down till you see them, I recommend The Joy of Wine first. He also has tons of other Math Rock stuff, so have at it. If linking the whole guys mega folder is wrong, I apologize since I didn't know any better lmao.

For you Don Caballero fans, Sounds Like Braille is pretty nice.

if u like it buy it because theyre not to common anymore

someone wrote Battled instead of Battles
on that note you should check out Mirrored by Battles

There's this one math-rock band, Dazzling Killmen, their album Face Of Collapse does an amazing mesh of metal and math-rock. Severely underrated stuff, all the dudes were trained in jazz and one day they decided to make rock music.

is this a chart for ants?

Look Mexico - this is animal music is a worthwhile record if you're into Midwest emo

isnt rusty more noise rock

Rusty is most definitely math rock, with elements of noise. Bible Silver Corner, The Everyday World Of Bodies, Jungle Jim, Gauge, and Tooth Fairy Retribution Manifesto all have time signature shifts, the most notable ones being in Bodies and Tooth Fairy Retribution Manifesto. The usual contention is whether or not to call it post-rock, as it does have a few post-rock touches. Generally it's considered a post-hardcore math rock album.

Fuck this album is fantastic, I agree. OP listen to this one.

yeah that's true you can def see the change in style on the 2nd half. what makes something math rock?

Definitely check out Polvo. Pic related and Exploded Drawing are essential math-rock listens.

>what makes something math rock?

Generally odd time signatures and multiple shifts of time signatures in one song; it's why a lot of math rock is known for the stop/start or LOUD/quiet motifs.

Celebrate the New Dark Age EP is my favorite. Check it out.

Off the top of my head, constant time signature changes and angular riffs are the two most characteristic superficial traits in the genre.

But there's definitely more to it. It also implies certain approach to composition, which will make the music sound disjointed and/or "geometric". This is why a lot of people describe early Sonic Youth as proto math-rock.

This is another band that is often tagged as proto math, so you get the idea
