I can remember importing it like it was yesterday. Where does the time go? I miss CTTS a lot :(

It's definitely one of mine. I have it at number 4 on a Discogs list but that's from over 10 years ago so I'd need to have another think.
Super glad I picked up all the original 12" pressings in the mid-2000s. Think I just need to get the 03/04 tour release then I have everything I want.
Nice, I always told myself if I get another music tattoo it would either be something Saetia related or the ATRU art as a sleeve...maybe one day.I have a CTTS tattoo on my right arm with art from Decompositions but I really want some from ATRU on my left
Same, so glad I managed to get one of the represses a couple of years ago. It even came with a personal note from Drew!

^ nice to see another Saetia lover here! I got the collection vinyl sometime ago! And I have a You & I tattoo on my arm. That mid-late 90s era was something else.
Ok, I'm new to Post-rock and looking for probably some super specific recommendations. I got into the genre and very much enjoy Godspeed but am having trouble picking out exactly where to go next. I have found that I LOVE:
I don't care as much for the harder stuff. For example I like some of the stuff If Trees Could Talk do but that's a little heavier/more metal leaning than I prefer. I also particularly enjoy the songs with longer run times. Mixing in string instruments seems to be a good bonus for me as well.
- Golevka, by the Evaptoria Report (Especially the song "Naptalan")
- Enjoy Eternal Bliss by Yndi Halda (the whole thing)
Appreciate anything anyone can recommend to scratch that itch!

Holy shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, new If These Trees Could Talk single! 8 years....
Asking here to start my search:
I am looking for some good YouTube content creators that talk about the history and influences in punk/post-rock/hardcore…all the stuff in this thread. Retrospectives and commentaries on important albums, highlighting lesser-known influential acts and how they shaped different music scenes and how they were influenced. Pretty much anything that gives a thoughtful and deep reflection on the musical history of these genres.
The one major qualifier is that I don't want anyone that will send me down the alt-right/libertarian pipeline on YouTube. Someone had suggested The Punk Rock MBA, who seemed fine enough on their own (from the 1.5 videos I watched), BUT when I started up one of their videos they gave a big shoutout to Colin's Last Stand…which is a huge red flag, and probably enough to keep from engaging anymore with their content.
Any suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!
Thanks for the recommendation! Not quite the flavor I'm looking for but poking around a bit will hopefully get my algorithm churning toward other similar content creators!
I need some new hits. Gimme your recent choice cutsssssss

How about some post-black?

Biography
Through a mixture of her work fronting Made Out of Babies, her collaborations with Cult of Luna and her 2010 solo album The Bad Wife, Julie Christmas has become a visionary adored by alternative music's fan-base. And now, after 14 years, she's finally releasing her second record under her own name.
Ridiculous and Full of Blood is the most comprehensive declaration of this musician's talents yet, assisted by a staggering array of talent. Guitarist/vocalist Johannes Persson (Cult of Luna), drummer Chris Enriquez (Spotlights), bassist/producer Andrew Schneider (Kenmode/ Unsane), guitarist John LaMacchia (Candiria) and keyboardist Tom Tierney (On the Might of Princes) were all paramount in bringing these new, genre-smashing tunes to life.
"We're all friends, I love the guys in this band," Christmas says. "They make it look easy. I'm playing with people who are musicians through and through. They're really talented and smart, and they're just great people."
Those talents shine through in myriad ways across Ridiculous and Full of Blood's 10 songs, from noise rock to punk via shoegaze and alt-pop. Meanwhile, lyrically, Christmas and her collaborators have "brought out different parts of the character that I am". Even the album's title, Ridiculous and Full of Blood, was penned as a tongue-in-cheek description of how Christmas views herself.
"If you are throwing yourself into life it can and should get wild!," she explains. "One day we were at Damnation Festival in front of all these people, then 24 hours later I was back at work, teaching kids how to make solar panels. That's me: ridiculous and full of blood!"
Although Christmas took 14 years to make a full-length follow-up to The Bad Wife, there's no doubting that this successor is more than worth the wait. Its impossible-to-pigeonhole songs are destined to not only reinforce the love fans already have for this peerless creative; they'll certainly win over countless newcomers, as well.
Hell yeah, love some good stoner metalIs there a Doom/Sludge/Stoner thread? New records by High on Fire and Whores. this week 🤘
Also a new Bongripper! Damn what a week
I definitely haven't given On Circles a fair shake when it comes to listening to Caspian, I should put that on today while I do some cleaning.It's sunny, so the window is open and Caspian's Wildblood is playing. This album has grown on me so much.
