So how am I supposed to differentiate math rock from post-rock or regular rock? They seem like the same thing

math rock is for the depressed
post rock is for the pretentious
regular rock is for the normals

think of post-rock or regular rock as a big mac with fries and a coke, and math rock as a loaf of fresh bread and some good cheese and roast beef. you will enjoy the latter much more

Math rock is usually really technical and played in odd and/or switching time signatures with “angular” riffs
Post-rock is usually kind of ambientish witha focus on timbre and mood
Regular rock is like Chuck Berry.

Post rock doesn’t exist

Mate do these sound the same to you

math rock is focused more on odd tempos and quick beat changes that require a lot of technical intricacy. Post rock is more of a texture thing. it’s pretty bleak sounding for the most part. regular rock is just regular rock idk how that’s hard to get

What about non-emo post rock?

POST ROCK IS ROCK WITH NO RIFFS

MATH ROCK IS ROCK WITH TOO MANY BEAT SWITCHES TO COMPLETE AN ACTUAL RIFF
