Math rock is a subgenre of indie rock and post-hardcore that emphasizes progressive rock-inspired guitar riffs and unconventional harmonies and time signatures. While most math rock bands have lead vocalists, some math rock songs feature extended instrumental passages. In many ways, the math rock scene recalls elements of 1970s progressive rock, but without progressive rock’s high concept lyrics and with less regard for catchy hooks.
Characteristics of Math Rock
Several key characteristics unify most math rock bands:
Ambitious songwriting
Many math rock songs contain multiple parts and long instrumental passages. Such themes are reminiscent of 1970s progressive rock groups like King Crimson but with a more stark aural aesthetic.
Minimalist production
Math rock rarely features large orchestrations or overdubs. [ Citation Needed ] The principal instruments are guitar, bass, and drums, with one of the instrumentalists often doubling as a lead vocalist. Records feature minimal reverb and compression.
Extended instrumental passages
Math rock is known for its instrumental passages more than it is known for vocal melodies and lyrics. Slint's Spiderland, perhaps the most famous math rock album, is nearly entirely instrumental. Other math rock groups, like Don Caballero and Hella, do not have vocalists.
Mixed meter
Math rock partly gets its name from the odd time signatures that populate many of the genre's songs. While plenty of math rock songs never stray from 4/4 time, math rock songs frequently feature syncopation to keep listeners on their toes at all times.
