""Will the wolf survive?" asked Los Lobos in 1984, and we still ponder that query 21 years later. At long last, we may have an answer: "Yes, but mostly in small clubs." There are less than 300,000 wolves on the face of the planet and a mere 70,000 in all of North America. The upside, however, is that at least 70 of these are indie-rock bands." [Chuck Klosterman]

I think what you meant was "bore" not "snore." Post-rock (Haw!) beat the pants off my death machine.
