Also, as far as trivia goes, Gregor Samsa is the protagonist in Franz Kafka's short story The Metamorphosis. To summarize this purportedly seminal work in a most flippant and unappreciative way, salesman Gregor Samsa wakes up and finds that he has become some monstrous vermin. His family gets freaked out and avoids him. Finally, Gregor gets the bad feels and dies. The end.

Gregor Samsa - Young and Old [post-rock]
I'm not sure why I keep hearing strings in the post-rock I've been listening to recently, maybe it's confirmation bias... Anyway this is "Young and Old" by the Virginian band Gregor Samsa from their 2006 album 55:12. The build-up is slow but determined and just beautiful.
