It’s that time of the year again! The magical week at the end of July where herds of post-rock fans invade the sleepy hamlet of Indianapolis, to chant, break bread, and make merry with their favorite bands. That’s right, it’s Post-Fest 2025! The largest post rock and post rock adjacent festival in the US (afaik), a magical event, and a great excuse to bring you a tailored list of some of the most interesting artists featured over the three stages. I’ve assembled a diverse cast to bring you this week, so jump in!
