Do I have my head up my ass, or is there not any post-rock in NYC?
Do I have to move to Chicago? Do I have to wait for Tortoise to roll through town again?
I only know a handful of bands here doing (what I loathe to call for lack of a better term) post-rock. It seems like everyone's doing a) '80s synth pop revival crap or b) Strokes clones or c) overly ambitious chamber pop collectives a la Sufjan Stevens or Arcade Fire.
I want NYC's answer to GY!BE. Anybody know any NYC bands like that out there???
