End, the mysterious new album by Explosions in the Sky, was sparked by darkness but evolved into a powerful, dramatic exploration of life and death. The band shares that the starting point was the concept of endings, like death or the end of a relationship. Each song springs from a story or idea that the band members have expanded on. The album title is open to interpretation - an end can be a stop or a beginning. End is arguably the 'grandest' album from Explosions In The Sky, blending the quiet restraint of their early works with the aural experimentation of their later ones, while also incorporating their rich film and TV scoring catalog. This is the Texas post - rock band's first studio album since 2016's The Wilderness. It comes on 180g yellow colored vinyl, is an indie exclusive, housed in a gatefold jacket with a printed inner sleeve. A digital download is included, and it's a limited edition of 5000, released by Temporary Residence Ltd. in 2023. Also available are other great albums like The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place, All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone, Take Care, Take Care, Take Care, The Wilderness, and another version of End on 180g vinyl LP.
To enjoy this vinyl LP, simply place it on your turntable, gently lower the needle onto the record, and let the music play. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid leaving fingerprints or dirt on it. Store the record in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. The gatefold jacket and printed inner sleeve are delicate, so be careful when opening and closing them. The digital download code can be found inside the packaging. Just follow the instructions on the code to access your digital copy of the album. Remember, this is a limited edition item, so take good care of it to keep it in great condition for years to come.
