ACL 2016: Top Ten Rock and Post-Rock

Wang Wen ~ Sweet Home, Go!
No more singing, screaming, or sampling of dialogue: by concentrating on pure instrumental bliss, China’s Wang Wen has made their best album to date. We challenge our readers to identify any other band who’s been able to do this in their ninth

Ef / Tiny Fingers ~ Vayu
One of our favorite post-rock bands is back, and this time they’ve brought friends! Gothenburg’s Ef has established a name for itself over the past decade, and every release is now an event. Pelagic Records’ Split Series pairs them with Israel’s psychedelic rockers Tiny

pg.lost ~ Versus
When did pg. lost become this melodic? I wonder as I delve into the opener of the Swedish quartet’s latest album. “Ikaros” is a lovely piece, but so wavy, so rolling, so unexpected. The guitars are intact, the electronics remain present, the builds and the

Mono & The Ocean ~ Transcendent
Mono & The Ocean‘s split 12″ follows the template of the recently reviewed All We Expected/Raum Kingdom split LP. Mono’s side is instrumental, The Ocean’s has vocals, and yet both are complimentary. One might say that the groundwork was laid

Takaakira “Taka” Goto ~ Classical Punk and Echoes Under the Beauty + Track Premiere!
Mono fans, rejoice! Lead guitarist Takaakira “Taka” Goto is now set to unveil his debut album, a work that didn’t sound at all like Mono when it was conceived, but sounds a lot more like Mono now. The band’s shift from pure

Ef ~ Delusions of Grandeur
