Explosions in the Sky – The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place

2LP Vinyl Record. The 2nd record is one-sided; it has an etching on the other side with birds and the sentence, “The Earth is not a cold dead place because you are listening, because you are breathing.”

The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place continues the patterns of the previous albums, with brooding, ominous melodies building into crashing climaxes. The album was produced and recorded by John Congleton. In an interview on “Slice of the Shiny”, band member Munaf Rayani said The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place was the band's “attempt at love songs”.
