Calling them my favourite instrumental band would be too limiting, because I would count Explosions in the Sky among my favourite bands, period. And earlier this week they announced their first non-soundtrack album in five years.

The first single is called "Disintegration Anxiety" and is as epic and intense as ever, but also seems a bit more frantic, has more of an urgency to it. The Wilderness comes out April 1st, and you can preorder it from their website now.

(And I'm hoping this album comes with a tour, because I've only seen them live once, and it was one of the greatest concert experiences of my life)
