Post-Post Rock

These three very beautiful late nineties German records have always glommed together in my mind. By this stage Simon's term Post-Rock had kind of sunk into the background but strangely seemed more apt than ever. In these times I reckon it was all about the USA and Germany. In the UK the Underground was firing but the Bohemian stuff (with the possible exception of Boards of Canada) wasn't really happening. In fact, at least as far as how I relate to them goes, all this sequence of records/CDs could be understood as: "Not played on London Pirate Radio, but still good".
