I've been long aware of their music, but am only now just realizing how great they are!! Rustic Houses and The Cycle of Days and Seasons have quickly become two of my favorite albums of the genre. I'd love to see them be brought up more often, especially in discussions of first-wave post-rock.

my list:
Mono & World's End Girlfriend - Palmless Prayer / Mass Murder Refrain
