Alternative is more modern and liked by the mainstream. If you were to listen to an alternative radio or channel, you'd hear music that you could most likely find on mainstream music channels like fuse.Quote:

As for post rock, I couldn't help you. I never understood the "post" prefix in music genres.
post-x means something that is beyond X.
post-rock then is beyond rock. It may have roots in it, but as a descendant, you wouldn't recognize it. Or that's how it was explained to me.
post-rock = beautiful wandering melodies, maybe words, probably not, idk. I like it!
