caleb is one of my favorite bassists and he has pretty much the perfect heavy bass tone. so good.
can't believe I've missed this thread until now. this sort of thing is my jam, but I think most of it has been covered already.
They're from my area but I've never had a chance to see them. They play a lot of bars and I'm not old enough to even get in.

Wee Valerus needs a fake ID
also, not sure if anyone mentioned them yet, but mare were a simply spectacular addition to the post-metal side of things. really weird guitar stuff (sans pedals, mostly!) and amazing, amazing vocals.
Voices of Omens is one of very few new albums the last year or two to completely blow me away (probably only Mammatus - The Coast Explodes and Deathspell Omega - Fas - Ite, Maledicti, in Ignem Aeternum have come close). It is like Acid Bath through the eyes of Isis. Wonderfully frightening stuff. Mr. Pickles if I ever finish that mix CD-R for you I'll include something from this album.
I still need to check out Red Sparrowes, as foolishly I have not.
Yo guys...
I saw and recorded a Red Sparowes / Russian Circles show last March here in Santa Cruz - heavy and melodic, good stuff.
Good to see Mammatus getting the nod as well - these guys are acquaintences of mine, and I just saw a show in SF last Saturday. Their new album is still in progress but they have been rocking out the new material for the last 6 months. Check 'em out on myspace - new material isn't there yet....

I'm a big psych rock fan so Mammatus is a band I dig. Good to hear they are working on a new album. My local psych rock band Earthless has been getting a lot of good buzz. They kill live if you get a chance to see them.
Man, Mammatus and Earthless are absolutely /awesome/ - I'd love to see either live, especially Earthless.
Indeed. I recorded the Witch/Earthless/Assemblehead show at the haunted Brookdale Lodge a few weeks ago.
I've always dug Earthless, they share a label with Assemblehead (personal friends of mine).
I'm really liking Mammatus' new stuff - and really good dudes to boot. Highly recommend checking out a show if you get a chance. They are playing weekly here around SF and Santa Cruz.

Think about hitting Roadburn in Amsterdam next winter/spring. A bunch of those guys head over from the US for that fest.

I'm digging the bass tones on Russian Circles' Enter. Sounds like a P-bass through an SVT. Anyone have the deets?
Listening to Giant Squid made my day yesterday. Love the dual vox.

Ooh, that does sound fun. I just got back from Belgium actually, I go over that way a lot - might try to wrangle a trip around that time
For you Red Sparowes fans who also use (LEGAL) BT...:

it's an AWESOME forum about this kind of music with a lot of activity and interesting people, plus lots of extras that you'll just have to go and check out for yourself.
(It's not my board, nor a friend's, etc, etc... just a great place for info on this stuff)

I've been enjoying listening to many of the bands mentioned in this thread, all of whom I'm discovering for the first time. So, the question is, how late am I to this party?
Anyone have a time line for the "post-rock" movement?
I am a self-fulfilling anachronism...
