How are Explosions In The Sky live?

Because I am seeing them in January.

[QUOTE=oracrest;15456035]I saw them open up for a day show during SXSW a few years back. They blew away the rest of the performances, completely. They have come a long way since then, and definitely deserve it.

I got the re-enter album, but I think it has a defect on the record, it always skips on me. Does anyone have this that they wouldn't mind sharing?[/QUOTE]

I don't have re-enter. i want it though. Is it a remix type album? ive not heard anything of it except re-enter (the song).

Edit: i found an EP with re-enter and upper ninety on it. I can link you if you want.

supposedly they are alot better live than on record. which isn't hard because their albums suck.

:( They're still one of my faves.

I enjoyed the hell out of their EP at first, but I can't really listen to it any more. Got boring. :-/

Are there any new post-rock/ish bands that are recommendable? (Do not answer this question if you listen to a million post-rock bands)

I haven't been paying attention to anything that's come out lately besides Ghastly City Sleep... which is awesome, for any of you Gregor Samsa lovers.

yeah, thats what I have, the single, not a full album.

The only other thing of theirs I have is their demo cd, which is the only thing they had when I saw them. Pretty much the enter album with different recordings. That link would rock!

well heres where i got it from

just change the x's

Re-enter is okay..I was hoping for a shift in sound, but it's just an extension of what they were doing on Enter- Hence the name of the Ep I'm sure.

What is Re-Enter, as posed by somebody else? Is it new material, or changed material? If it's the latter, I'm not going to bother.

I'm listening to From The Sky now, who aren't that bad.

Its just a 2 song ep i beleive. with 1 new song and a reworked version of enter, hence re-enter

Meh, not worth my time.

Its only a small file. only took me 2 minutes to download, and they're pretty good songs. worth a listen.

I hope they release a new album soon.

I listened to GYBE last night and it put me to sleep

I found F#A# kinda boring :-/ Are their other releases better?

Apparently so and from what ive heard of them yes.

I think I'll get Lift Yr... some time.

get slow riot for new zero kanada

K I think I will, it is shorter.

Thats the next one on my wishlist. Its so hard to get GYBE cds here i might have to download it

[COLOR="Blue"]Quoted for truth.

Slow Riot is my favorite next to f#a#oo with Lift Your Skinny Fists not too far behind. All three of them are fantastic albums. Yanqui didn't sit well with me though, I can't quite place my finger on why.

On a side note, is anyone here a fan of Miasma and the Carousel of Headless Horses? They aren't really post-rock, but they are interesting. It's definitely a love or hate relationship with most people who listen.[/COLOR]

Why is your writing blue?

[QUOTE=big80smullet;15468923]Why is your writing blue?[/QUOTE][COLOR="Blue"]Want me to fix it?[/COLOR]

Nah im just wondering why?

[COLOR="Blue"]I do it on every forum I've ever been on for the past 5 years. A bit of a habit I guess.[/COLOR]

Hairy muff, fair enough

Miasma & Carousel is good.

I just got lift your skinny fists. Its way better than yanqui and a bit better than f#A#

Yeah, it goes like this:

Lift Your Skinny Fists > Slow Riot > F#A# > Yanqui

What about tiny silver hammers? i heard that was quite good
