Introspective

In the second half of the 1990s, The Wire magazine coined such a controversial term: post-rock. The concept was used to define the music of some bands with styles that didn’t fit in any of the other genres predetermined by industry and market. Introspective explores the reasons behind some of those bands, their words and live shows, creating a portrait of underground or indie music as an emotional allegory of our global societies.
