Post Rock

Post Rock is a musical style that emerged in the 1990s, drawing influences from a variety of musical genres such as ambient, alternative rock, electronic, experimental, and jazz. The genre is characterized by the incorporation of intricate guitar melodies and textured sonic soundscapes, often with minimalistic arrangements and repetitive structures. Post Rock has been used in film scores and for a variety of other media, and is often associated with acts such as Mogwai, Sigur Rós, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and Explosions in the Sky. The genre is seen as an exploration of soundscapes, with the goal of creating a more emotional and immersive experience than traditional rock music.
