Russian Circles

[Ito]

Does anyone else here listen to Russian Circles?
They are a three-piece Post-Rock band out of Chicago. They make some of the most epic songs I have ever heard. I could rant for hours about them, but you guys should check them out if you haven't.
Easily my favorite band at the moment.

Melodic Death Metal is great as well. I think you should give Turisas a try if you haven't. They are a finish Folk Metal/Symphonic Metal band, but I think that they could fit in with some of the bands as well

As for you tried a few songs on Lola...I'm confused there...What do you mean? XD
I really recommend you listen to one of the CD's from start to finish.

Ok I give up,What is post rock?????

For this I shall copy the first part of the wiki article:
Post-rock is a term of rock music characterized by the use of musical instruments commonly associated with rock music, but using rhythms, harmonies, melodies, timbre, and chord progressions that are not usually found in rock tradition. It is the use of "rock instrumentation" for non-rock purposes. Practitioners of the genre's style typically produce instrumental music

EDIT: I'm too slow

Jamie let me help you with that:

Haha, I got ya now!
I still recommend listening to one of their albums from start to finish... Or at least listen to Harper Lewis, which in my opinion is their best song.
