Some useless text: I think post-rock is definitely a leader among emotionally fulfilled and evocative genres. For some people it's just a beautiful instrumental music, but I'm pretty sure that no other music can touch your heart, as post-rock does. "Hymn to Immortal Wind" by Japanese band Mono is one of the best post-rock albums I've ever heard. I wanted to say the best, but nothing is perfect, I'm pretty sure the best album is yet to be written. I cannot explain why it touches more than other albums, probably the best explanation would be shapes, that are created by this music in mind. They are childhood memories, flying, landscapes, clouds. Listening to this album is like living one short life within these 7 tracks. Perfect epicness and song structures that are almost close to classical compositions. I think, this is the music to be played when the last day of humanity comes.

So, the First Message With a Standard Title?

A new music blog in the ocean of same-looking blogs. Is it really needed? Personally I suppose it is. First of all because I sometimes have some spare time, that I want to dedicate to such kind of activity. It doesn't matter, will it be widespread or will it stay lesser known, if at least one person will find it interesting - it will be worthy doing this.
So, the concept of this blog will be posting albums, which I consider to be outstanding in music, and needed to be heard. Of cause, everything depends on personal taste, but there are things, which are definitely great, even if your taste differs from what it is. I hope all albums posted here will fit take a very special place in your world.
Starting right now, don't be worried.
