Impressions here please.
 
I wouldn't go that far (TV on the Radio is right next to this album as is the BTBAM ep).

I have this album in my 'quene' but I can't bring myself to listen to it. Don't know exactly why. How does it stack up to say, like uh -- All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone? (My favorite album)

Their stuff is usually much more of an 'investment' then the music I've been listening to the past few weeks (which last 3 minutes or less). I might give it a go now? maybe...

"my fave new jam of theirs is the one that starts with like this really slow heavily reverbed guitar part that’s just like single notes sounding really lonely and shit

but then like bass comes in and the drummer starts hitting the kick drum and jingle bells and you’re all “omg, what is happening now?! what next?!”

and then explosions in the sky answer you with, “u aint ready bitch”

but obviously you’re all “NO, I AM!”

so explosions in the sky shower you in a transcendent bukkake stream of uplifting interlocking reverb guitars playing single notes and it’s so romantic like what if that cute girl that sold you your coffee was actually into all the same shit as you and the world ended and it was just the two of you so either way she had no choice but like she’s holding your hand anyway so it doesn’t matter, nothing does, just this beautiful crescendoing jizzstorm of hope

anyone know the title of that one?"

I think Day One is the one you may be thinking about.
 
This might be my favorite band. I've been listening to the new release for a little over a month now and absolutely love it. Hoping to complete my Explosions in the Sky vinyl collection with this new album.
 
Beautiful album. It's pretty cliche but it's done pretty well "Let me back in" and "Postcard from 1952" are amazing.

Agreed, they don't reinvent the genre but they are one of the best PR bands around.
Great album
 
I am currently blasting Postcard from 1952. This feels like nirvana holy shit.

Is that the ACL Live show? Dumb question but do those shows last more than 50 minutes? I was considering buying tickets when they put them up a couple weeks back but I wasn't familiar with how those shows were set up.
 
I think it's disappointing.

Wish I would've seen them in Hollywood Forever Cemetary last night, though. Some friends spent mad cash to go.
 
Seen them play last night in Edinburgh, first time. Great gig, loud and heavy sounding live, loved it. Spoke to Michael after the gig, he's a cool guy.
