Since you listed sleeping people already, you've already listed who is, in my mind, the best "math rock" band, the only one who doesn't bore me to tears anymore.
Shellac rock and have song structures and time signatures occassionally. So, I don't see a problem with them being saddled as math rock. Personally, I wouldn't call Polvo math rock -- to me that's some kind of weird noise rock. Until you get to stuff like "title Track" which is the definition of math rock. If you're going down that route, listen to thinking fellers union local # 282 instead... they've got some math rock shit, some noise rock shit, some noise pop shit,probably the best "rock" band ever honestly.

i bet the dude knows his June of 44 by heart, he'll tell us when he sees the thread.
gotta update the list again with yr "walking encyclopedia" stuff, you always come up with excellent but unknown bands, congrats.
god, i've never ever listened to fellers union local 282, gotta lay my hands on that now
is it a bit like BLINK 182?
