Fere – Visceral (Raging Planet)

Now here’s a thing: a post-rock, ambient doom work which is experimental. Its creators Fere are from Portugal and this is their second album release. The opener “Atlas” doesn’t tear up trees but I’d suggest is all the better for… Continue Reading →

Tangled Thoughts of Leaving – Deaden the Fields (Bird’s Robe)

Music of an experimental shade has a special appeal, because it has an inherent possibility of going just about anywhere, of taking any possible road. I like the way experimental music takes my mind to all sorts of places, the… Continue Reading →

Sleepmakeswaves – Live at the Metro (Bird’s Robe)

In times when shows are still few and far between, a live album is a welcome change. I enjoyed listening to the album at hand, even though the music belongs to a genre I rarely get excited about nowadays. But… Continue Reading →

clayhands – Is This Yes? (Bird’s Robe)

Coming from the same camp as sleepmakeswaves and We Lost the Sea, cinematically-inclined instrumental post-rock band clayhands – it’s all in the lower case – now enter the scene. I liked the symphonic start. With a patient build up, there… Continue Reading →

Solkyri – No House (Bird’s Robe)

“Crikey Ails! What we putting in the beer down the surf club. It’s all coming up post rock down under,” is exactly what Ray Meagher’s character Alf would have said if he was sent as many post rock albums by Birds Robe as I am. Well this time… Continue Reading →

Seims – Four (Bird’s Robe)

I feel like I have gone from being clueless about what constituted “Post Rock” a decade ago to becoming the Ave Noctum specialist. In fact, to drill down even further I seem to be the go to guy for Australian instrumental post rock on Birds Robe records. My… Continue Reading →

We Lost The Sea – Departure Songs (Bird’s Robe Records)

The folks at Birds Robe have been busy re-issuing their catalogue, meaning that gorgeous looking CD’s filled with big post rock sounds have been dropping through my letterbox. With each dull thud on the door mat comes another collection of songs by a band… Continue Reading →

Glasgow Coma Scale – Sirens (Tonzonen)

The Glasgow coma scale is a medical assessment tool, employed to gauge a person’s level of consciousness after a brain injury. It’s also the name of a post-rock band from Frankfurt, Germany. Why the band chose to name themselves after… Continue Reading →

Mono – Pilgrimage of the Soul (Pelagic)

Twenty two years. Eleven studio albums. These Japanese loons have had a long and hopefully lucrative career. I have dipped in and out of their eclectic sounds over the years – usually as part of playlists made by mates who were… Continue Reading →

Dumbsaint – Panorama In Ten Pieces (Bird’s Robe Records)

Expansive. Immersive and indeed panoramic. If we are doing nutshell descriptions then that would be it.  Dumbsaint are an instrumental four piece from Sydney who create big, big soundscapes of what is known as post rock. Now “Panoram….” is not a new release. It was written… Continue Reading →

Ison – Aurora (Avantgarde)

Ison is an ambient post-rock project put together by Daniel Änghede (previously of Crippled Black Phoenix) and Light Field Reverie vocalist Heike Langhans. Having crafted two EPs in 2015 and 2018, the duos debut LP was released in 2019 to… Continue Reading →

Dumbsaint – Something You Will Feel Will Find Its Own Form (Bird’s Robe)

Dumbsaint is a band whose music is accompanied by film. Having just this album to listen to I didn’t get the benefit of that. But you can get five videos as a download with this hour-long instrumental post rock work…. Continue Reading →
