    I listened to two of their songs. No lyrics in any of their music or maybe just the ones I chose? They didnt sound bad at all. Seems like a listening in a dark room going inside your mind kind of thing.

    Most of their songs are with no lyrics if I'm not very wrong..

    You're not very wrong. Their early stuff had lyrics.

    Pretty much instrumental in post rock.  Explosions in the sky has done a bunch of soundtrack and TV stuff.  Listen to "The Earth is not a cold dead place" or " All of a sudden I miss everyone" and work your way outwards 

    Memorial,  Your Hand In Mine are outstanding  on Earth, and Catastrophe and the Cure and It's Natural to be Afraid....on All of a Sudden

    So instrumental metals capes. Like Metallica Call of ktulu or to live is to die.

    Mogwai's Zidane album has some great soundscapes

    I was so mad I didn't dig them.  They had this cool low print run for RSD.  I traded someone on here for it.  I ripped it open and put it on the plinth and oof....
