I like both a lot, but my inclination is still towards GG as that is a favourite of mine off my favourite album by Gentle Giant. That said, the Explosions in the Sky track has the element of freshness to these mouldy old ears of corn, so I won't vote yet (I often favour new discoveries to old faves).

As much as I like GG's song, Explosions' is pretty good. It reminds me of one of Fripp and Eno's collaborations.

Another minority vote for the Post Rock moon...the other is one of my least favorite Gentle Giant songs.
