End, the enigmatic seventh album by Explosions in the Sky, was inspired by darkness, but became a loud, dramatic, wild rumination on life and death.

Our starting point was the concept of an endingdeath, or the end of a friendship or relationship. Every song comes from a story, or an idea one of us has had that weve all expanded on and made its own world. Maybe its our nature, but we kept feeling that the album title was ultimately open to a lot more interpretationthe end of a thing or a time can mean a stop, but it can also mean a beginning, and what happens after one thing ends might pale in comparison to what it becomes next, says the band about the album.

End is perhaps the grandest Explosions in the Sky album melding the quiet restraint and crushing feel of their early releases with the sonic texturing and ornate experimentation of their later releases, and their increasingly deep film and television scoring catalog, influenced by personal tastes stretching from classical to soul to experimental ambient music.

The title End furthers a story arc reflected in the album titles that started with the innocence of their first album (How Strange, Innocence), progressed through the idealism and romanticism of their second and third albums (Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Die, Those Who Tell the Truth Shall Live Forever and The Earth is Not a Cold Dead Place), followed by the introspection (All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone and Take Care Take Care Take Care) and big-picture focus (The Wilderness) of their most recent albums.

The band announced The End Tour this spring, bringing their legendary live show experience to 26 cities around the world in 2023. More dates are expected to be announced soon.

They are currently scoring a new, undisclosed, television series that will premiere in 2024.

End is the bands seventh, but not final, studio album
