-
Its kind of instumental music
-
its not easy to listen
-
It's an open question
-
and let audience use their own imagination
-
and feel in all way that they like to
-
Post rock is...
-
Post is mean later.. after the original rock genre
-
So post rock is to make music by using rock instrument
-
but not intend to be rock music..
-
But talk about "Rock" music first
-
rock is fundamental of playing music
-
drum, bass, guitar and vocal
-
but post rock change that basic.. into non-rock music
-
Post-rock is happen about 10 years ago
-
long time
-
around 90'.. I dont know who is first person call it "Post-rock"
-
but the first band that I heard they are post rock is "Tortoise" from Chicago
-
and Jim O'Rourke .. he use to be in band "Sonic Youth" as guitarist..
-
early post-rock is sound much into Jazz music.. got brass instumental..
-
also "Mogwai" and "Explosions in the sky"
-
90' is a time of modern rock and alternative
-
the world's mainstream that time..
-
Post-rock are happen since then.
-
most of the band that time.. already start some music experiment
-
they always got some experimental track, at least one
-
such as 8-10 minutes long track... with no lyrics
-
at 60'-70' there are cross rock
-
or some jazz band that make experimental music
-
in the way that they like
-
for cross rock, they use other sound such as ambient
-
its kind of art music
-
post-rock may got some influence by that also
-
Post-rock sound is not just a basic rock
-
it got more texture and technique
-
and you can't sing along
-
you may think your radio is broken
-
becouse its noisy sometimes
-
Why no vocal ?
-
post rock is unstable and sensitive
-
experimental music
-
not easy to put the right lyrics into it and it can be narrow the meaning of song..
-
Post-rock may express it's emotion
-
through the music not the lyrics
-
if got lyrics, its may lead audient by words
-
but without lyics
-
audience got space for their own imagination
-
for what they really feel
-
some of post-rock got lyrics
-
and it great also
-
but if it all in singing, this can be narrow the meaning of post-rock music..
-
Post rock in Thailand, we got many die-hard group
-
such as "Finalkid" group
-
they got band like "Forgot your case"
-
and "Inspirative"
-
SO::ON dry flower group
-
Koichi was in this group..
-
in my label there was a band like"Goose"
-
Goose is kind of famous
-
but not many track that can play on radio
-
In Thailand.. post-rock is very inch..
-
not many audience i guess
-
only serious music listener will discover them
-
compare with neighbor .. Post-rock audience in Thailand is very little
-
because its not play much on radio
-
and its very independent
-
real indepentdent.. salf made, share to friends
-
and listen in their group
-
its hard to get promotion by mass media
-
such as radio or magazine, no one talk about them
-
but when they got hook up, it can be chance for all
-
its not easy listening music
-
high degree of experimental stuff
-
but if put it and listen.. we may learn somethings new
-
post-rock have no standard
-
but now people have image in their mind
-
about how post-rock could be
-
actually.. it's not
-
Post-rock is freedom
