I tried to download some stuff by them to give it a try and all I got from like 3 different songs was slow instrumental crap.. What gives? Explosions in the Sky is instrumental. They are a very popular post-rock band that have managed to garner attention through doing the soundtrack for Friday Night Lights, I guess. I honestly don't really know how they became so popular. For those who enjoy Explosions in the Sky, I recommend taking a look at some other post-rock bands such as: 65daysofstatic, Ef, This Will Destroy You, and The Samuel Jackson Five. It really is a great genre. Not so many lyrics, but very melodic and full sounds that you don't find in modern rock today. None of the verse-chorus-verse-chorus-verse-chorus monotony that is all too common, in my opinion.
