Canadian post-rock is a genre that blends elements of rock, classical, and experimental music to create a cinematic and atmospheric sound. It often features long, instrumental compositions with dynamic shifts in intensity and emotion. The genre is known for its use of unconventional instrumentation, such as strings, horns, and electronics, and its incorporation of field recordings and spoken word samples. The music is often politically and socially conscious, with themes of resistance and activism woven throughout.
