Originally called Breaker Morant, Explosions in the Sky was formed in Austin, Texas in 1999.Drummer Chris Hrasky is from Rockford, Illinois, and the rest of the band hails from Midland, Texas.Rehearsal footage is featured on the short film Cicadas, which won an Austin Film Festival award.The cover of Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever.Explosions in the Sky quickly gained a reputation for themselves among other established local bands such as Lift to Experience.Temporary Residence Limited signed the band on the strength of their demo after only half a listen; the demo was submitted by fellow Austin band The American Analog Set with a brief note saying, "This totally fucking destroys."Bassist Michael James was detained in an airport as a threat to security, and had to explain why his guitar contained the words "this plane will crash tomorrow".After being contacted by Brian Reitzell, Explosions in the Sky wrote the soundtrack for the 2004 film Friday Night Lights.They performed on Austin City Limits on June 29, 2007.All Tomorrow's Parties music festival in May 2008.Although the band's music deviates from pop, Hrasky said that they have similar goals "like immediately grabbing your attention and getting to your emotions."Drummer Chris Hrasky added "There were a couple of instrumental bands at the time that we were heavily into; Dirty Three and Mogwai; we were listening to those bands a lot.And I think we just liked the idea of a band that there was not a leader or main songwriter, everyone collaborating and has their own say.In popular culture
The band's music has been featured in the 2003 film All the Real Girls by David Gordon Green, who had also lived in Austin.In addition to the film, the television series Friday Night Lights also prominently features Explosions in the Sky's music throughout its first season, with the songs being licensed by NBC from the band's previous catalog rather than being specifically recorded for the score, as was the case with the film."Your Hand in Mine" is partially featured in the trailer for the 2007 film The Diving Bell and the Butterfly."Six Days at the Bottom of the Ocean" and "Your Hand in Mine" played in the background of two Cadillac commercials."The Birth and Death of The Day" and "All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone" were the titles of the last two episodes of the 4th season of the TV series One Tree Hill.The song "Have You Passed Through This Night?"Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Live Forever contains sampled dialogue from the movie The Thin Red Line.Explosions in the Sky.The day the music died an accidental death.And the creepiest detail of all is that the record had a track that was titled, unbelievably, "This Plane Will Crash Tomorrow," which was subsequently removed from the album.Explosions in the Sky."Friday Night Lights Original Soundtrack".Explosions in the Sky Album Details Surface.Explosions In The Sky Ready New Album, Tour.Fansites
