fastpork posted:And while taking about Slint, the 90's Louisville scene was unstoppable. Especially June Of 44 and Shipping News, both formed by Jeff Mueller. June tends to be more pissed off and Shipping News tends to be calmer, but if you adore Spiderland you will love both. Props for being one of the few in the thread to mention some real math rock, but I would think that you would have included 90 Day Men. Although they were from St. Louis (not Louisville), they grew up in basically the same way as Slint and June of 44 as basically playing post-hardcore but with that mathy feel that eventually evolved into the Louisville math rock sound. Aside from Slint's Spiderland, 90 Day Men's To Everybody is probably the most important (and best) album from that scene.

Primetime posted:I've listened to most of what has been suggested in this thread, but it seems like a majority of the focus has switched to mathcore, and frankly I'm not a fan of metal or hard rock. Are there any other math rock bands at a Minus the Bear or Maps and Atlases level that I may have missed? ManifoldCuriosity posted:90 Day Men The album I suggested from them is low key, as well as Panda Park. Once you get into their early stuff though, it's more rooted in post-hardcore, so you might want to be careful. Oh, and I'll just add my two cents about how much I hate the "mathcore" label. It just ends up encompassing "progressive" metal and metalcore bands. I feel that math rock actually has a distinctive sound at times.
