Take Care - Explosions Abound

Great news. The fifth album for Texan post rock kings Explosions In The sky has been finished, has a title and its tracklist has been set in concrete. The album, Take Care Take Care Take Care, once again will feature artwork by longtime collaborator (and oft-time roadie) Esteben Rey, therefore promising to be as breathtaking as ever. The guys reckon its featuring a sound that they themselves never dreamed they would take on - which could be a blessing or a curse, we will have to wait until April before we can make up our minds. The tracklist for the LP and tour dates are below, after the trailer for the album release that features a snippet of new sounds...
