I'm picky about my post-rock, but I like Jesu a lot, Neurosis occasionally, and Pelican OK. Most of it is just too vague and meandering...but records that lack lyrics (or identifiable ones, anyway) are best for my productivity.
Exactly. 'Post' implies it ended at some point. And that's something no one will ever agree on the when or if it has ever really died in the first place.
Post-rock is nearly ideal coding music.
