I've been following Tortoise, The Sea and Cake, Volta Do Mar and some others for a while now, but can't seem to get into a lot of the other 'post rock'. I'm not so much into the EitS sound. I suppose I'm looking for something a more dynamic and less epic wall of soundish and with more of a beat. Any recommendations?

I don't know if everyone knows them or not... but Slint are the first and, coincidentally, best post-rock band. What's more, they fit your description perfectly with some awesome rhythm/percussion - if you don't have it, get "Spiderland" asap and listen to it until the cd biodegrades. Dave Pajo from Slint went on to do Tortoise, and his other projects Papa M and For Carnation are also poo poo hot. Pajo's style is amazing.

Is Battles post-rock? Math-rock? Whatever it is, it's what 65daysofstatic should have been.
