Hey
our fellow sellouteater is currently kind of discovering Math rock through stuff like Don Cab. I suggested a few bands he could listen to, but i need help because i can't think of all the bands i know just right now, and then maybe some new ones i've never heard of might come up! So: - Don Cab - Bellini - Rumah Sakit - Sleeping People - Saragashum ( this is obscure but man does it rock) - Chevreuil - Cheval de Frise - Hella (early - twho first LPs) - Dilute - Paul Newman - Stereobate ok people that's just off the top of my head , help needed. The man wants to eat Mathrock for breakfast! GO! ![]() |

Rumah Sakit and Shellac are the only bands I've heard that sound mathy. And Meshuggah.

I've never really understood what math rock is. I know the technical definition, but it still just seems like the sort of pigeonhole that really makes me want to say "well, it's all just music, isn't it?".

Yeah I was just going through some of their stuff, and for the most part they aren't. I think it's just cause they have mathy intros, and I usually stop listening before they get very far.

you've got all the good ones listed honestly. the only one i'd add is probably june of 44 (who are more noise rock but they have mathy stuff), yukon, giraffes giraffes, SWEEP THE LEG JOHNNY ("going down swinging" is one of my all time favorite records) uh.. or en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Math_Rock
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 that most of the bands listed would punch you in the face if you told them that they were a math rock band. Unless they were shit rock, in which case they'd think you are paying them a compliment.

again, why do people get so tore up over the names of genres? It's a way to classify things, and it usually works. Otherwise, every band would just be "music".
