Like every year, the special Best Post-Rock Albums playlist features tracks from a selection of 10 albums.
This 2023 edition is very varied, with, on the border of Post-Rock, the very good new albums of Svalbard and Milanku. American instrumental Post-Rock is very present with Shipwreck Karpathos and Ranges. The Europeans are not to be outdone with Spurv and Ropes Inside a Hole, nor even the French with First Came the Shadow and Maven. Shoegaze, finally, is well represented by Fragile Animals and Laveda.
Svalbard – The Weight of the Mask (Nuclear Blast)
Shipwreck Karpathos – Being Human (A Thousand Arms Music)
Spurv – Brefjære (Pelagic Records)
Fragile Animals – Slow Motion Burial (Hobbledehoy Records)
Ropes Inside a Hole – A Man and His Nature (Shove Records)
Ranges – 33 (A Thousand Arms Music)
First Came the Shadow
Laveda – A Place You Grew Up In (PaperCup Music)
Milanku – À l'aube (Folivora Records)

As a bonus, an unreleased track by Brutus and an excerpt from an Iress EP complete the playlist.
