Explosions In The Sky

US first press 2019.
A bit of an outlier in their catalogue and that’s exactly why it’s great. Written and recorded fast during a residency, it’s rawer, looser and more immediate than their bigger cinematic moments. Still emotional, still expansive, but with a scrappy urgency you don’t always get from them. Feels human, imperfect and very sincere. A proper sleeper in their discography. Class. FFO Mogwai quieter moments, This Will Destroy You early stuff, Godspeed You Black Emperor restrained bits, Mono, Hammock
