What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.

Right. Here's Brian with the news you've all been waiting for. We have the new EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY LP & CD in this week, the vinyl being on Temporary Residence & the CD being on Simon Raymonde's fine Bella Union imprint. Now since I started working here I must have packed scores of the last one to send to post-rock devotees around the world & It's been a staple fave on all our stereos. 'The World Is Not A Cold, Dead Place' is just what the doctor ordered. Another shot of grandiose brilliance. Epic, refined, heaving & dense. Total ear candy as we'd expect from these Texan masters of the genre. Throw away your Mogwai records and rejoice!! The vinyl is a double & etched on one side for extra cherish-ability. You know the score. Just get this OK cos It's a dead cert you'll all love it!

What the label says:

Picking up where Those Who Tell the Truth…, The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place begins as a flickering twinkle that soon grows to a blinding light. This new sense of hope is the defining characteristic of this record, and ultimately the journey that their music takes us on. Immeasurably more dramatic and dynamic than their last album, The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place takes its shape not in the unexpected cacophony that had become the band's trademark, but in the infinitely deeper caverns of the human soul. With a soft heartbeat-like thump that grows stronger by the minute, the band is now closer than ever to replicating the simple movements that, when strung together, form the unpredictably complex machine that is the human body.
