Explosions in the Sky - Your Hand in Mine

I'm not a huge fan of the whole Explosions, Mogwai, "post-rock" (what a silly name) thing, for a number of reasons. I tend to prefer my songs short and snappy, and I like music that really engages you rather than just sounding nice in the background while you’re doing something else. Same as I didn't like the related genre of "ambient". But I have to admit that once this song gets going, it’s really quite lovely.

From their 2003 album, The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place.
