because on Sup Forums 2+2=5

Because boy does it get old fast.

Not something I listen to on a daily basis, but quality math-rock and caffeine have been my go-to choice for waking up and starting shifts at work. OP photo is a great choice. Been rotating between it, American Don, and Don Caballero 2.

this desu

Does it? Try sprinkling it in with your musical diet instead of occasionally binging on it.

Where can I find more like the drumming on this? Typical math rock is much too fast.

I generally find it to be lacking in feeling and emotion.
I dislike "technical" genres of metal for the same reason

What's crazy is these dudes were in high school when they wrote most if not all of their first album.

youtube.com/watch?v=qekOugmzBzA

What did you guys think of this album?

i love monobody, i wish their split with those pyramid dudes wasn't so god damn expensive on bandcamp. like 6 bucks for their debut and 10 for the split? no way

mega.nz/#!BshiiRhL!Mc3HT-8BRi3tiiHKr2aSNFfO5kV8oeAtgPVEYRufroE

enjoy brother

coolio
do you know if those pyramid dudes got some solo stuff? i couldnt find anything when i searched

not that I know of, this is the first i've heard of them

Because the only good Math Rock band I'm recent memory was Foals, and they broke out of that niche almost instantly.

Fun starts at around 1:45

For some reason I can't get into this album as much as DC2

...

Have you tried the so-called "twinkly" emo bands that use a lot of math rock ideas?

...

have you tried self-inserting in the musicians' spot ie hand drumming, air guitar?
that's how you get technical rock and jazz most easily

One of my favorite math rock albums.

They're supposed to be dropping a full-length some time this summer apparently.

Math rock peaked in 2000 with American Don and Under Thunder and Fluorescent Lights.

>music for musicians
gross

This is my favourite album from the genre

that's a little close-minded don't you think?

fuck i totally forgot about this album

XD

Giraffes? Giraffes! - More Skin With Milk Mouth.

Not listened to math rock in years but those 2 I posted are pretty awesome.
Trying to get back into my math-rock/post-rock after years of going mad on jungle.

>you have to play along on air guitar in order to get it!
i'm plenty open minded but i would really rather not

>have to
it helps. and it's fun!

You Slut! was the logical conclusion to the genre.

This is very good, thanks for posting it user

this is equivalent to "you have to be watching a sunset on drugs to it!" and i don't enjoy program music. at all.

This album is underrated on Sup Forums

I love these too

a day called zero - s/t

bitch magnet - ben hur, particularly this song

...

This album sticks with me way more than their newer dream pop/indie stuff, i wish they would have gone for this sound more

don caballero is god-tier.
best tracks are details on how to get iceman and slice where you live like pie.

Zach Hill plays in that band

>this is equivalent to "you have to be watching a sunset on drugs to it!"
what's wrong with it though
some types of things are best enjoyed in certain situations or mindsets, you thickheaded cunt

forever

10/10

I feel like this only applies to the kind of "math rock" which is often erroneously tagged as such for being instrumental music. That kind tends to be wanky, boring prog like you said.
Proper math rock can be energetic, raw or mellow if it wants to be.

only the first track is good-core

wrong. you're listening to shitty math rock. brutal prog doesn't get old quickly.

pretty good taste there fampai

My personal favourite

Classic

bad opinion

I like this album a lot, but the band members are so lame. They make good music, but I would never want to make an album with these guys.

youtube.com/watch?v=UqCT1Rx63mw&t=1455s

Good shit, are you ready for the new album?

youtube.com/watch?v=qbPhrJYpZKQ

Some of the worse stuff can be. But man, stuff like Piglet makes me want to get up and dance.

Because 14yr old hipsters have an attention span of a week long and get their tastes from hipster websites which tell them what to listen to.

Those sites -which are really placing products- change their best albums of the year/decade etc every week. You do the math

thats not math rock
thats proto djent

Love it, For Long Tomorrow is my fav from those guys

xD

omg proto djent LOOOOL

so funneh and randum ^^

what sites are you talking about mane? Pitchfork or some shit?

what do you mean, how are they lame?

Yes, P4K and all the hipster garbage aggregators

this is an essential

I agree with all of these

yeah my fav too

always loved the non-abrasive side of math rock, more leaning into post.

even tho i love hella's "hold your horse is"

>shellac
>math rock
Nigga wut

the GOAT

why don't many people like brutal prog? it's generally fantastic imo

name?

enjoying this album a lot. Thanks

...

rec me more like this? one of my favorite albums of all time and never found anything else in the genre that compares

Elephant Gym is the closest you're going to find. Toe are in a league of their own in how chill they are.

Never see this posted

You get a gold star

ngl japanese math rock has my heart.

THE by tricot has been on repeat for like a week for me.

I think when math rock tries to be math rock it feels cold as fuck but when it has less of an effort to be in backwards 7/4 and 5/4 for the whole song it sounds way better.

This

I liek, but too happy.

it's pretty niche/specific

listening on bandcamp now. Does anyone have the album in 320?
