Mathrock Recommendations?
« on: October 03, 2005, 09:18:00 pm »
I rather like prog, but so far have been wary of math rock.  Are there any slam-dunk math rock selections, albums that you just can't go wrong in trying?

Don Caballero's pretty good.  Check out Singles Breaking Up Vol. 1.

Hum - Downward is Heavenward
 Braid - Frame and Canvas
 Secret Machines - Now Here Is Nowhere
 June of '44 - Tropics and Meridians
 Rodan - Rusty
 Shellac - At Action Park
 Fugazi - Anything
 Polvo - Celebrate the New Dark Age (EP)
 Chavez - Ride The Fader
 Pitchblende - Au Jus
 
 These really aren't all math rock but you'll probably like them.

Yeah, I don't think I'd call Secret Machines anything near math rock.  A good record for sure, but math rock it is not.

Downward is Heavenward is a lost 90's classic...
