Author & music writer, Ian King (Under the Radar Mag, Stereogum, Author of "Appetite for Definition: An A-Z Guide to Rock Genres"), joins me as we tackle the wide and undefinable world of post-rock. We wrestle with this genre’s cringe name, quote Simon Reynolds ad nauseam, ponder why post-rock bands prefer to play live while sitting on chairs, and run through a based post-rock playlist curated by Ian. True to form, only real post-rock heads will stick around for the full runtime on this one.
