Explosions in the Sky - Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Live - VINYL LP

Originally released at the tail end of summer in 2001, Explosions in the Sky's second album, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever was a visceral, speaker-destroying escalation from the modest minimalism of their debut, How Strange, Innocence.

Exquisitely pressed onto colored vinyl for the first time ever, this is Those Who Tell the Truth at the absolute peak of it's ineffable power. Album Tracks 1. Greet Death 2. Yasmin the Light 3. The Moon Is Down 4. Have You Passed Through This Night? 5. A Poor Man's Memory 6. With Tired Eyes, Tired Minds, Tired Souls, We Slept

End, the enigmatic new album by Explosions in the Sky, was inspired by darkness, but became a loud, dramatic, wild rumination on life and death. InchOur starting point was the concept of an ending-death, or the end of a friendship or relationship. Every song comes from a story, or an idea one of us has had that we've all expanded on and made it's own world. Maybe it's our nature, but we kept feeling that the album title was ultimately open to a lot more interpretation-the end of a thing or a time can mean a stop, but it can also mean a beginning, and what happens after one thing ends might pale in comparison to what it becomes next,Inch says the band about the album. End is perhaps the InchgrandestInch Explosions In The Sky album - melding the quiet restraint and crushing feel of their early releases with the sonic texturing and ornate experimentation of their later releases, and their increasingly deep film and television scoring catalog, influenced by personal tastes stretching from classical to soul to experimental ambient music. Album Tracks 1. Ten Billion People 2. Moving on 3. Loved Ones 4. Peace or Quiet 5. All Mountains 6. The Fight 7. It's Never Going to Stop

In 2005 - after having toured the world for over a year straight in support of The Earth Is Not A Cold Place, and scoring the major motion picture, Friday Night Lights - Explosions in the Sky took the year off to physically, emotionally, and creatively recharge. It was during this period that they decided to try making an entire album in a method that was totally foreign to them Quickly, and loosely. They came up with the idea to compose, rehearse, record, and mix an entirely new song each day for eight days in a row. They kept the rules simple and strict the song had to be crafted from start to finish in one day, and could not be revisited once that day was done. The band would produce, record, and mix everything themselves in their own homes, without outside assistance or interference. With such rigid parameters, the expectations were kept suitably low. The quality of the album that bloomed was startlingly high. The songs had a lightness and unruliness that starkly contrasted their catalog, while maintaining the same emotional resonance that had already become a trademark of their music. The Rescue - Anniversary Edition has been beautifully remastered from the original 24-bit stereo mixes by Heba Kadry at Timeless Mastering. The vinyl lacquers have been cut by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service. The record was pressed onto audiophile-quality 100% virgin vinyl at Record Technology Inc., and is packaged in a full-color jacket with a full-color heavyweight inner sleeve featuring the hand-written story of The Rescue, as told by the band upon it's completion in 2005. This is the long-overdue, definitive presentation of a rare but requisite piece of Explosions in the Sky's remarkable history. Album Tracks 1. Day One 2. Day Two 3. Day Three 4. Day Four 5. Day Five 6. Day Six 7. Day Seven 8. Day Eight
