Explosions In The Sky
Explosions in the Sky is an American post-rock band from Texas.
The quartet originally played under the name Breaker Morant, then changed to the current name in 1999.
The band has garnered popularity beyond the post-rock scene for their elaborately developed guitar work, narratively styled instrumentals—what they refer to as "cathartic mini-symphonies"—and their enthusiastic and emotional live shows.
They primarily play with three electric guitars and a drum kit, although band member Michael James will at times exchange his electric guitar for a bass guitar. The band has later added a fifth member to their live performances.
