Post rock svedese, molto e(x)splosivo e amante dei deragliamenti. Mentre l'emozionalità vive negli oceani dei Mono. MySpace: pg.lost

Ich glaube, es wird auch bei mir mal wieder Zeit für einen Postrock Tipp. Bei zuviel Nettigkeiten und Süßigkeiten gibt es sonst gibt es ansonsten programmierten Ärger mit der Vatertagsgemeinde und dem Bundesligaendkonferenzverein mit eingebauter XY Ausstattung. Die brauchen ab und zu was mit mit viel Gitarre vor den Kopf. Isis geht schon prima klar. Die netten Jungs von PG.Lost kennen sicherlich noch nicht alle Freunde des gepflegten 10 Minuten Postrocksongs. PG.Lost kommen, welch Überraschung, mal wieder aus Schweden und fallen weniger durch bahnbrechende musikalische Innovationen als durch melodisch, handwerklich und stimmungsvo ll extrem gute [...]

pg.lost - Yes, I am MP3 Really great postrock from Sweden. One EP, one CD and a second to come this year. For all you friends of the instrumental slowfastcalmloudniceandbrutal genre. Highly Recommended.

İnsana demezler mi sen önce yarım bıraktığın serileri bitir! Terbiyesiz!! diye... Hatasının farkında olmayan fütursuz çocuk modunda hemen konuya giriyor; "ne insanlar gördüm üstünde elbise yok, ne elbiseler gördüm içinde insan yok" tandanslı konseptimize, "ne olursan ol yine gel" merkezli bir düşünce yapısı ile yaklaşıp, tür kaygısı olmadan, aa bak ben bu albümü çok sevdim, üstüne kapağına da bayılınca... Aslında kestirme yoldan gidersek, sırf ortaya bir yazı dizisi çıksın diye bu başlık altında, bir grup, bir albüm ve birkaç mp32den oluşan minik yazılar yazma amacındayım. Yani, alışık olmadığımız bir şey değil. Tamam, dağılabilirsiniz. 2008 yılının ıskaladığım [...]

Post-Rock is Cold Dead Genre? (2004-???) Albums like F#A#(infinity) in 1998 by GY!BE, Young Team in 1997 by Mogwai, and The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place in 2003 by Explosions in the Sky have become the blueprints that many fledgling bands have used to sculpt their own sound. The fact that modern post-rock bands [...]

pg.lost are an awesome post-rock band hailing from Sweden. They released It's Not Me, It's You! in September of this year, and it's been pretty well-received in the post-rock community. While their music can be said to be more typical of the genre, they add an "umph" to it that cannot be denied to be quite enticing. I would consider this album very much in the same vein as post-rock legends Explosions in the Sky, so that you can get an idea of how good this album is. Six songs range from six and a [...]

Interested in a copy of the new Pg.lost album "It's not me, it's you!" ? Simply leave a comment on this thread and I'll pick a random winner on Wednesday morning. And don't forget to check out Lars' review today or my own take from a few weeks back.
Pg.lost 's newest recording, "It's not me, it's you!" , is almost double the length of their previous effort "Yes I am" . The opener alone is nearly the duration of the previous record's first two tracks, though this space is well used: a slow, almost discordant swell bursts into a mass of distortion, a wave which breaks and allows for the tinkling of soft piano notes in its recession. The last few moments of "The day shift" are amazing: a lush, thick mingling of instruments in the final throes of a beautifully composed song, finally [...]

It was bound to happen eventually, but this seals it: Swedish postrock has hit the wall. It's amazing how a genre founded on breaking the rules can turn into something so contrived and predictable, yet here we are. Listen to that tremolo picking soaked in reverb and delay and ask yourself, is this it? What might have sounded fresh and exciting 10+ years ago fails to impress in 2008. Very disappointing.
