(Austin Texas)
Think-Explosions In The Sky are practitioners of the underrepresented , almost unheard of, Post-Rock Genre. As Wikipedia puts it: "Post-Rock makes use of 'rock instrumentation' for non-rock purposes". What that boils down to is Four Sons of Texas, Three Guitars, One Drum Kit, No Vocals and hours of soaring, emotionally charged music. The idea of instrumental music being emotional may feel strange at first but once you hear EITS, one immediately understands.
Forming in 1999 Explosions In The Sky originally went under the moniker "Breaker Morant" but after playing their very first show on July, 4th the band decided on its current name after watching the fireworks that night. After four albums the band is still going strong and due to a constant touring schedule the band enjoys a very dedicated fan-base.
