Damn, I didn't know the genre was so large..I liked what I heard from This Will Destroy You, especially "There Are Some Remedies Worse Than The Disease". I couldn't find any Pelican samples anywhere, but I'm downloading one of their albums right now.
Is it customary for these bands to use drum machines?

I can't speak for This Will Destroy You because I just found out about them but none of the Post-Rock bands I listen to really use drum machines, they are full bands.
There are lots of post-rock bands. Here is a list from Wikipedia if you want to check some more out (a lot aren't on this list though.)

Good looking out on that list Jae. I have only heard limited BSS but I did like what I heard. I know you already know about Do Make Say Think but out of that list of members you should really check out Valley of the Giants (Post-rock band) and Metric (kind of like Ladytron) a lot of the others I have never heard of so I'm about to go check them out now.

I thought Karmacode is their least good CD, but after listening to it like 50 times, I started understanding their changes. They really went a lot harder, and I think America played too much of an influence in it (the "american" rock sound, that is, really thick guitars), They arent as dark as they used to be which annoys me. Comalies was like one of the best *hard* rock cd's ive ever heard. er, IS, i mean. I saw them live and now im fucking obsessed with the lead singer Cristina, hahaha. i loooove them dark metal chicks.
But i know what you mean by not liking it much. It took me a while, and if i wasnt a hardcore fan i wouldnt have made it to the point where I now like it.

^^^I was just about to make a post in this thread that I thought it was funny no one named Evanescence or AFI but then you posted haha.
I like Lacuna Coil, specific songs more than albums. I thought Karmacode was pretty damn weak though.

Evanessence is hit and miss with me. This last one was their best effort, but not on my list as best of the year.
Not really, it's on my list too on the first page lol. Morrissey/The Smiths have been one of my favorite artists/bands for as long as I can remember.
I liked that Mastodon too but it was a step back from Leviathan IMO. Still a good album though.
Fantômas - Suspended Animation came out in 2005 FYI. Really great album though I agree. Then again I'm biased because I think everything Mike Patton touchs is great lol. With that being said I don't know how I forgot to add the Peeping Tom album to my list of best of 2006. What did you think of the album DNI?

Yeah, Moz is the absolute shit I was considering 'Who put the M in Manchester' but since it's a live album I didn't add it..
And that Peeping Tom, honestly it wasn't what I was expecting but I definitely dug it, not enough to make my favs of the year but still good..I'm sure that next Tomahawk album (whenever it comes out) will be high up on the list though..Also read something bout Patton doing something with some Italian Orchestra got me really curious how that's going to sound.

I got a Leaves' Eyes album awhile back, it was intersting to say the least.
I cant find Queen Adreena anywhere, id like to hear some of their stuff. Also, id like to hear Kidneythieves, but I couldnt find their album to DL anywhere. Can you upload a song if you get a chance Smurf?
Heres a fun tidbit. Tairrie B, of My Ruin, used be a rapper and was signed to Ruthless Records (yes, THAT Ruthless Records). Anyone remember her?
