1	Mirrored (2007) more music like this by Battles It's official: in 2007, it's all come full circle. Prog rock has made its way into the indie scene. Battles' Mirrored, their debut full-length after three EPs, makes that plain. Messrs. John Stanier of Helmet and Tomahawk, guitarist/keyboardist Ian Williams of Don Caballero and Storm & Stress, guitarist David Konopka of Lynx, and avant solo ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $13.37!
2	Discipline [30th Anniversary Edition] [Bonus Track] (2005) more music like this by King Crimson When King Crimson leader Robert Fripp decided to assemble a new version of the band in the early '80s, prog rock fans rejoiced, and most new wave fans frowned. But after hearing this new unit's first release, 1981's Discipline, all the elements that made other arty new wave rockers (i.e., Talking Heads, Pere Ubu, the Police, etc.) successful were ... see all copies from $12.56! new only from $13.70!
3	Absent Lovers: Live in Montreal 1984 (1998) more music like this by King Crimson After three years and four albums, the '80s incarnation of King Crimson, featuring Adrian Belew (guitar/vocals/drums), Bill Bruford (drums/percussion), Robert Fripp (guitar) and Tony Levin (bass/stick/synth/vocal) wrapped up their initial collaborative efforts at the conclusion of their 1984 North American tour. Absent Lovers (1998) presents the ... see all copies from $15.59! new only from $17.41!
4	The Destruction of Small Ideas (2007) more music like this by 65daysofstatic see all copies from $11.25! new only from $14.22!
5	Spiderland (1991) more music like this by Slint More known for its frequent name-checks than its actual music, Spiderland remains one of the most essential and chilling releases in the mumbling post-rock arena. Even casual listeners will be able to witness an experimental power-base that the American underground has come to treasure. Indeed, the lumbering quiet-loud motif has been lifted by ... see all copies from $7.87! new only from $11.25!
6	Exploded Drawing (1996) more music like this by Polvo Polvo's Exploded Drawing takes listeners on a sonic journey that encompasses nearly every kind of sound that a guitar has been known to make, and a few that might be unheard of until now. The group has worked on their intricate, changeable sound since the early '90s, but on Exploded Drawing, it shows they've worked on their songwriting as well. ... see all copies from $7.90! new only from $13.25!
7	For Respect (1993) more music like this by Don Caballero Rare is the rock band that can make a strong impression on the listener without the benefit of a vocalist, but Pittsburgh's Don Caballero comes roaring out of the gate on its debut album. The quartet showcases its instrumental wizardry on the opening title cut, a skull-crushing groove monster that finds evocative drummer Damon Che leading the band ... see all copies from $9.26! new only from $11.25!
8	Don Caballero 2 (1995) more music like this by Don Caballero The liner notes speak it plain -- "Don Caballero is rock not jazz, Don Caballero is free from solos." But not from complex, ever evolving compositions that never, ever forget to crank up the amps and riff along. The post-rock canard that the group was labeled with somewhere along the line doesn't really make sense, and the math rock label is even ... see all copies from $9.77! new only from $11.95!
9	What Burns Never Returns (1998) more music like this by Don Caballero Yet another testament of pure musical genius from the wizards of Don Caballero. This album -- probably their greatest effort to date and a keystone instrumental album -- will make musicians stand open-mouthed in absolute amazement, wondering just how such music is written. Insane rhythms change time and key without a second thought -- beautiful, ... see all copies from $11.00! new only from $12.81!
10	Tweez (1989) more music like this by Slint Tweez is a fine, if bizarre recording, often switching from bass-led rhythm to rhythm in the same song. The guitars are harsh, but not especially fast. Instead of singing, bits of dialogue, sound effects, and spoken lyrics are used. John Bush, All Music Guide see all copies from $9.58! new only from $11.25!
11 view cover	Small Stones (2005) more music like this by Bellini Though many of the landmark bands that changed the course of post-rock in the late '90s are gone, there are a few labels that keep the house lights on just in case there are still fans of the sound out there who crave more. One of these labels, Temporary Residence, has become a haven for the sound circa 2005, and the latest offering from Bellini ... see all copies from $6.00! new only from $16.39!
12 view cover	Inches (2004) more music like this by Les Savy Fav The culmination of a project eight years in the making, Les Savy Fav's Inches gathers nine singles -- 18 tracks in all -- that the band began recording in 1996 and then released through nine different labels (including Sub Pop, Monitor, and Suicide Squeeze). Inches presents these singles in reverse chronological order, a clever and somewhat daring ... see all copies from $9.96! new only from $11.34!
13 view cover	Better Days Will Haunt You (2006) more music like this by Chavez Chavez projected an aura of a supergroup pulled from a number of world-conquering bands -- Live Skull, Wider, Skunk, Bullet Lavolta, the house band on Into the Night with Rick Dees -- that were, in fact, lucky to sell a couple thousand copies of a release and play before crowds numbering in the dozens. With the members' combined powers and a ... see all copies from $15.48! new only from $16.66!
14 view cover	Unsung: The Best of Helmet 1991-1997 (2004) more music like this by Helmet Four guys who looked like they had just punched out after running the batting cages at Softball City & Put-Putt-a-Rama: that's the type of image Helmet cut on-stage. The noise they generated did not fit the (lack of) image. How could such an unpleasant sound come from people who looked so reasonable? The band spent the early years slumming it with ... see all copies from $11.51! new only from $12.86!
15 view cover	China Gate (1996) more music like this by Cul de Sac Beginning and almost ending with an interpretation of the title track, a lesser known collaboration from the mid-century musical figures Victor Young and Harold Adamson, China Gate, edited down from one lengthy recording session, finds Cul de Sac fully coming into its own. Smack-dab in the middle of a post-rock craze which the band itself had no ... see all copies from $12.56! new only from $14.19!
16 view cover	The Harp Factory on Lake Street (1995) more music like this by Gastr del Sol The Harp Factory on Lake Street is an intentional departure from Gastr del Sol's main line of work -- aside from the formality of a name change, it could almost be considered a one-off side project. The record consists of one 17-minute orchestral composition, recruiting various Chicago musicians (Jeb Bishop, John McEntire, Bob Weston) to create a ... see all copies from $9.58! new only from $9.58!
17 view cover	Let's Stay Friends (2007) more music like this by Les Savy Fav After a six-year break due to a severe case of writer's block, wild-hearted frontman Tim Harrington and his boys have upped the ante upon return with Let's Stay Friends, an excellent record that marks a dramatic stylistic departure for Les Savy Fav. Here, they continue building upon their foundation, which is writing deceptively solid post ... see all copies from $11.26! new only from $11.26!
18 view cover	Hephaestus (1993) more music like this by Iceburn see all copies from $3.79! new only from $15.69!
19 view cover	The Collectable King Crimson, Vol. 2 Live in Bath 1981 (2007) more music like this by King Crimson Adding to the already dizzying array of King Crimson live material is this second volume of the Collectable King Crimson, which hosts two gigs from 1981 in a double-disc set. The two discs vary in sound quality, but in terms of performance they are both fiery, exuberant and frequently stunning. Disc one has been retrieved from a cassette bootleg ... see all copies from $12.29! new only from $14.95!
20 view cover	Irony Is a Dead Scene (2002) more music like this by The Dillinger Escape Plan When Dillinger Escape Plan opened for Mike Patton's Mr. Bungle in 1999, the show was a dream for fans of experimental metal. When a break between vocalists allowed Dillinger Escape Plan to seek out a collaborator to fill the time, Patton seemed like an inspired choice to mix up their assault. Despite the ridiculously high expectations from both ... see all copies from $8.64! new only from $8.64!
21 view cover	The Hidden Hand [EP] (2004) more music like this by Year Future see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.38!
22 view cover	Cheats (2003) more music like this by Lefty's Deceiver Lefty's Deceiver polishes up its post-hardcore sound for a slick, indie-tailored fourth album entitled Cheats. Instead of relying on distorted guitar riffs and Andy Williams' difficult vocals, Lefty's Deceiver goes for full, layered arrangements. Producer/engineer Brian McTear (matt pond PA, the Trouble With Sweeney) stretches his skills in the ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
23 view cover	Rusty (1994) more music like this by Rodan Whatever scene or geographical associations Rodan dealt with by being from Louisville, KY, in the early '90s, setting those aside and looking at the music straight up reveals one key fact: this was an amazing band, one with clear roots but also one with a sense of its own strong fusion. The group's only full-length release, Rusty may also well ... see all copies from $9.45! new only from $12.56!
24 view cover	The Concise King Crimson (1993) more music like this by King Crimson see all copies from $19.99! new only from $19.99!
25 view cover	Apertures (2006) more music like this by Lower Forty-Eight In spite of a relatively short career, regularly disrupted by its musicians' involvement in parallel bands (most notably singer/guitarist Andrew Lund's bass-playing duties with labelmates the Mass), San Francisco power trio, Lower Forty-Eight have still achieved widespread notoriety for their dynamic fusion of indie, noise, math rock, and other ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $14.60!
