post rock; the genre that actually listens to you. It doesn't try to make you feel better, it doesn't make you feel like your problems are invalid. It listens, it exists quietly and humbly. It is the genre that doesn't try to change your emotions, it just lets you have your own.

I like that.

While listening to this music i like to read the comments. It seems that random people from all around the world become a group of close friends, who silently enjoy this never-ending company of strangers, fighting their own demons and facing the life of adulthood. Cheers peeps!

Only 7 minutes in and I've fallen deep in love with this music. After years of searching..I needed to scratch that itch, ever since I left the hard metal phase. The perfect genre..One hard enough to let the anger go, but one soft enough to let the tears flow.

It's beyond beautiful..I can't put it into words. And the fact that so many people like this..it isn't just me. I'm not weird for being so picky about music, I'm not odd for flipping through song after song just to find one good one, only to get annoyed with it after the third replay.

I'm just..stunned. it's 2am and an absolute miracle happened. Excuse me for gushing, just appreciating this amazing moment. I can now jam in peace.

It's crazy how melancholic this makes me feel. I have no idea why.


Specifically it makes me remember sleeping over at my grandmother's house when I was a kid. It's late and she's already gone to bed after eating ice cream with me, but I'm staying up and quietly watching cartoons. Every so often I walk to the kitchen in the dark to get some water, all I can hear is just how loud my footsteps are on the tile. Eventually I go to bed covered with sheet, cover, and quilt. I play with the frills on the side of the pillow to distract myself with how dark it is in the room. The room feels so empty and makes me feel anxious, but it feels so familiar. I don't remember falling asleep, but I remember waking up, sleepy eyed to walk into the kitchen. I climb onto the stool at the island and watch my grandmother make waffles and cut strawberries.


There's no reason for me to tie this kind of music to these memories and yet every time I listen, this is all I can think about.

The art perfectly fits the songs, if anyone is not aware, this is the Citadel of City 17 in Half-Life. The kind of arts portraying the Citadel usually refer to melancholy, oppression and hopelessness, which is kind of the hidden messages the developers in Valve tried to achieve while making HL2.

[militaristica]

I am a simple metrocop.
I see citadel, I click.

Post-rock is the rock music that hits you right in the feels intentionally or unintentionally, which is why it's so different from any other rock music.

[RyanLuck]

this is like the hard version of the lofi girl

[orange_turtle]

Electric guitars sound good in literally every style of music. From super hardcore heavy metal to chiller stuff like this, the guitars always manage to beautifully enhance the music's emotion like no other instrument can.

I'm writing my final graduation article while listen this masterpiece mix. This mix gives me some kind of "reality disconnection" moments that helps me to focus. Thank you.

this kind of music somehow just universally makes people feel. i see so many people in this comments section using it as an escape, feeling it as an expression of fear, depression, loneliness, or any number of things. to me, it just reminds me of how far ive come. it makes me think of how- this time last year- i was at the absolute lowest point of my life. the constant, looming feeling of fear, paranoia, and depression, the absolute despair and hopelessness i felt every day, the fact that there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel- that everything would only continue to get worse, and how i would fear for my very life some days. i felt like i had no safe haven and that the world would just endlessly continue to beat me down until i finally caved and did myself in. and then i got help. i got better. and now, im in the best place that ive ever been. im actually happy now, i feel like im a normal person for once. i genuinely smile and laugh, im motivated and optimistic, im resilient and stronger than i once was. im happy now, and this music just reminds me of that fact. depression, anxiety, and any other thing like that is never cured, but- at least for now- ive won.


whoever you are reading this, and whatever youre going through or feeling right now, i want you to leave here keeping one thing in your heart


things really do get worse before they get better, and the best days of your life could be right on the horizon. i know you can see a better day, and i know that you are strong enough to see tomorrow <3

this music makes me feel like i am explorer on a distant planet, having just been woken up from hyper sleep. now i'm walking through the ruins of a once great, and technologically advanced civilization, with only the memories of where i came from and only the conjectures that this may have been the fate of my home world. then i look to the sky on this planet, and i realize that we aren't alone, and we may have died out as a species, but there are countless other worlds studying, learning, advancing, and experiencing life and existence the way my kind once had. it's a somber hope. a tearful, joyous sadness for those who have gone before us, and those who will come after us...knowing that everything that has a beginning, also has an end.

[Cement_Smoothie]

I got very emotional from this, which is not an easy thing to do. Me, who saw family members die in front of me, and still haven't dropped a single tear, started weeping from hearing these songs. And I very much needed this. If anyone needs to talk, I'm here for you, who ever you are. I love you all.

[ben-ji]

What i really love to do when listening to these songs is to lie on my bed, close my eyes, my whole room is dark and put these songs loud on my headphones.... It just transports me to another world with nice views and so on.... It's really relaxing and the only thing keeping me from going crazy most of the time....

Один из самых умиротварённых жанров во всей музыкальной индустрии. Сколько бы "шедевров" обычного рока не выпускали, этот жанр останется у меня в сердце навсегда

[the_real_vdegenne]

This music makes you understand why you are sad, and then try to lift up your mood, like "it's alright buddy, don't take things too seriously"

[lost-one]

Empathy. The shoulder to cry on that no one wants to offer you.

[BerryNice]

This music always reminds me of the person who I am now, and how disappointed I am with who I am, I really want to stop existing

Not like suicide or something like that, just stop existing, I don't want to keep living in this universe, I just want to dissappear, no one to remember me so they don't get hurt

I just want to stop existing

[raydia.]

I still have hope, I am afraid that if in the end that hope was useless, if I end betrayed, my life was pointless. But I still have hope, I really want to live, or at least find my own sense of living, I still have hope, and I still want to try.
This music helps me to escape a little bit, and I am grateful for that, somehow it inspires me, it helps me to keep my hope a little more

No hablo muy bien el ingles y no suelo comentar, pero ... al ver el ambiente en los comentarios y ver que muchas personas sienten lo mismo que yo al escuchar esta musica me hace feliz, aqui es cuando nuestra alma se proyecta al cosmos, espero que los que vengan en el futuro se den cuenta que este, aqui y ahora es nuestro mejor momento...
