Explosions in the Sky

Any mention of music from Texas should I fall back to Explosions in the Sky. This band is fully instrumental and changed how I listen to music. And for you today I have a Jesu remix of the first song off All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone. Yes your ears are about to be happy.

Oh why not, this band also released to my knowledge, an album that didn't get a lot of press for free on their website. No idea how long they plan to keep it on their site so get it while you can.
Get it here:
Explosions in the Sky- The Rescue

Watch:

Homer Hiccolm and the Rocket Boys

These guys are friends of mine back in my college days. The play a gentle pop-indie style while maintaining wonderful hair. This is from their first release 'The South Plans EP' which is very old and honestly not as strong as what they are doing now. However, this song is still very catchy and fun to sing a long with.

I am giddy. SSDT has me linked on his page. It's like I am nominated for homecoming court.
