this is amazing! I love this kind of music but don’t know what the genre would be called

they walk the line between post-rock and noise but they’re kind of one of a kind. dead flag blues is kind of the goat for me personally.

Symphonic post-rock, with dark americana vibes. It’s a niche within post-rock unfortunately but there’s some really beautiful stuff out there that’s similar to GY!BE:

Thee Silver Mt. Zion, their side project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sD2cPL5rDM8

Kashiwa Daisuke- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei7cdynwRMA

The Monroe Transfer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJE6u9HaKEM

Mono: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHUJ78rMf90

World’s End Girlfriend: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfG_G2O2q40

SonVer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEPnvVfjBa0

Sigur Ros: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUK_ou_mTQE

Dark americana is another of those sounds I chase, as a result of The Dead Flag Blues, but similarly there isn’t much standout stuff:

Friends of Dean Martinez - https://open.spotify.com/album/5RE7p2XVQXNYAzL6tuVmo5

Wendy Lewis- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzTyQV-ovM0

Yes dude yes. “Lift yr skinny fists like antennas to heaven” is one of my favorite albums, I got to see them live twice… a bit jealous you get to listen to their music for the first time, lol

I also saw them live, one of the members of GY!SE, I think the sax guy, refused to face us the entire concert, he literally played the entire concert with his back turned to us, what was up with that. Also I stood next to the guy who projected visuals on the background, he was using two old timey projectors and actual film to match the luciferian towers album art grainy look.

Its great accompaniment to stuff. I found this album the same time I first read the collected works of Lovecraft, and now the two are forever linked in my head. Which, Static + Music of Erich Zann does fit almost too well.

I’ll have to give that a shot sometime. I love me some Lovecraft. The Nameless City is my favorite of his short stories.

If you’re discovering GSYBE and liking them, check out Thee Silver Mt. Zion Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band
