Godspeed You! Black Emperor's legendary debut layers apocalyptic poetry, field recordings and strings into a devastating wall of sound — one of post-rock's foundational statements.
Lift Your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven
Widely hailed as their masterpiece: a double-LP epic of four long-form suites climbing from silence to overwhelming crescendo — post-rock at its most monumental.
Yanqui U.X.O.
Recorded by Steve Albini, their third album returns to rawer, more abstract instrumental terrain, its political fury smouldering across long arcs of tension.
Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!
Their return after a decade away pairs two towering centrepieces of droning tension and blazing release, proving the band's power undimmed.
Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress
Their most compact record, moving from meditative drone to searing climax — concise in form yet losing none of its cataclysmic weight.
Luciferian Towers
Framed by a utopian manifesto, brass and strings intertwine in a stance both mournful and defiant, seeking sparks of hope in a collapsing world.
G_d's Pee at State's End!
Recorded during the pandemic, this return forges anger, grief and resilience into sustained walls of sound — another eruption of the band's apocalyptic vision.
No Title As of 13 February 2024 28,340 Dead
Their latest, titled for the Gaza death toll, channels raw political grief through the band's signature long-form architecture — sombre and impossible to ignore.

Waking Season
Produced by The National's Matt Bayles, this milestone balances icy poetry with vast dynamics — a record that redefined modern post-rock, back in stock on limited emerald-and-white vinyl.
Dust and Disquiet
An ambitious, epic statement: three-guitar walls of sound met by strings, brass and wordless voices, building from hushed detail to shattering catharsis — one of the last decade's post-rock high points.
