Does anyone else listen to them? Better question, has anyone else heard of them?

They're an incredible instrumental group from Texas. I just ripped their second album, Those Who Tell The Truth Die, Those Who Tell The Truth Live Forever off of a friend, and I've had their third album, The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place on my computer for a while now.

Anyway, I can only describe them in one word, as completely cliche as it sounds, amazing. They honestly know how to put together a song that speaks volumes without using any words at all.

I highly recommend anyone who hasn't heard them check them out immediately. They're really terrifyingly good.

I've heard of then. Never got around to downloading (er, buying...) any of their stuff.

I guarantee its worth the download. I find it especially helpful when writing posts. There are no words to distract you, and the music stimulates your creativity. Like classical music is supposed to improve your thinking abilities, only this is better.

I listen to 'Explosions in the Sky' when I'm studying. Good stuff.

If you like them, you will probably also like...

First Breath After Coma is my favorite from Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place, but I haven't listened to Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell The Truth Shall Live Forever enough to know the tracks by their names, nor pick a favorite.

You should underline those album titles. Hard to read without it.
