....which wasn't written by us. fair enough. i've heard more constellation than LACO, i'll admit, but i am looking forward to hearing yer new album. there's nowt wrong with being 'unoriginal', as you put it. however, if you sound too much like your influences, without adding anything new to the mix, then why bother? surely it's part of the creative process to build and develop upon what's gone before. using a guitar is not unoriginal at all, it's what you do with it that is important, surely? there's been orchestras around for hundreds of years, and composers are still finding new things to do with them. likewise, painting has been around since the caveman days and yet it is still possible to come up with something new.

hmm, to settle the debate, i'd just say that yes, we have sounds similar to that of the fore fathers of post rock, but we dont sound like any of the bands over a record. no one needs to hear these bands before listening to us or vice-versa, but we're probably as much shellac or isis as we are godspeed. as for genres, we are proud members of the No-Gaze movement.

I'm still crying with laughter at the first part of this thread, long long may it live. Everything everybody wrote was unintentionally hilarious for some reason.
Anyway, David, you're part of the shoe-wave movement, only east-coast bands can be no-gaze. And Frankie Sparo rules.
