Explosions in the sky!?

Migrated topic.

Anybody ever listen to much of them!? SWIM never heard their stuff until a few months back when SWIM and SWIMS buddy each both ate an 8th of pink buffalos and listened to this while sitting by a fire. All i got to say is WOW :shock: :d Great music
 
I listened to them non-stop for quite awhile.

I really enjoyed them, and I seen them in concert which was by far better than just listening to the CD's.

It makes me emotional. Brings you from lows, to highs extremely fast.

Very very creative stuff.
 
Explosions is a gnarly group! i went to see them a few times when they were still touring. cant get over the massive buildups, especially live! they would get into it pretty heavily. plus the music is good to put on during a smoke or before bed.
 
They're pretty good, though fairly generic post-rock (post-rock in itself is a godly genre, though). It never grabbed me as much as Godspeed You! Black Emperor (a must-listen), Do Make Say Think, A Silver Mt. Zion, Valley of the Giants, Mogwai, Radiohead (mainly Kid A/Amnesiac era), or Sigur Ros. Also, check out Pelican and Neurosis (anything recorded before "The Eye of Every Storm").

I will definitely take some time and check some of those out. Thanks!
