As a Silent Tongue Shadow by David Cordero & Pepo Galán A little while ago I bought the whole Muzan Editions discography, and I am still only a little way into unzipping the albums. As with most mass label buys, it's a mixed bag, but I am enjoying this one. The track Deva is especially good.
My final Post Rock album for the day is "The For Carnation" s/t album. The band includes Brian McMahan from Slint who were at the peak of Post Rock excellence.
Do try the youtube link below for one of my all-time favourite Post Rock tracks, "Moonbeams"
Another great Wackies production, back in London I used to buy my Wackies (cd re-issues I'm afraid!) from Honest Johns in Portabello.
And previously
Huntsville - For the Middle Class
Norwegian folk-jazz come post rock. From way back in 2006. I think I missed this one as my first splurge of enthusiasm for everything Rune Grammofon was over by the turn of the millenium, previously I'd bought the collection Supersilent 1-3 direct from the label because I couldn't find it in London after seeing a stonking show at the South Bank.
S-Core - Pretention more on the leftfield experimental tip. Industrial / drone tapeworks on the Staaltape label 1988. Don't know who was hiding behind the project name.
S-Core is Yutaka Tanaka, Japanese guy who works with a lot of noise artists like Merzbow and If, Bwana, etc. Also used to be a band named Man Decade, but I don't know what he does now.
That Prince Douglas dub is a really nice slice from the earliest 80s. I'm gonna bring that out now to listen. Thanks for the reminder!

Thanks for the Tanaka info. It's missing from BC and Discogs. Name vaguely rings a bell. And hey that Prince Douglas was an online find from a blogger who goes apeshit for dub every now and again. Message me if you want details - though I'm guessing you might know.
Yeah, I have had that DouglasDub for over 40 years. When I say that I'm "gonna bring that out", it used to mean to reach and pull the LP, but I can't easily find stuff doing that anymore - I just have to go to my digital collection and bring it "out" from there. Thanks tho for the offer of details and such...
I'm gonna put it on soon, but I'm kinda stuck playing around with some software and creating something that's a repeating funky Thai instrumental riff that slowly changes over time. These riffs are sometimes good to use as music beds for "Random Radio." I can change the degree of change, so sometimes it can sound like a very long, drawn-out Steve Reich segment that can go on indefinitely.

@djh fyi Rate Your Music is a great source for that kind of information
@confused totally agree with you re Tarentel and The Drift. Thanks for the reminder which got me listening to Tarentel's "From Bone to Satellite" and The Drift's "Noumena"

Yes RYM is a good resourse, just forgot. Also I have to admit it is a dangerous place if you are short on time. I tend to have a tab open on a page of RYM lists and another with Bandcamp or YouTube so I can disappear down a rabbit hole. (File under First World problems...)

& "How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away?". I've enjoyed all their early '70s releases.
Great music and good mix of goofiness.

I would be really interested to hear what are everybody else's favourite Post Rock albums
The Drift certainly fit the bill. I'll look forward to revisiting them both later this month and down the
road.
