All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone is the fifth studio album by American post-rock band Explosions in the Sky, released on February 20, 2007.




Recording


The album was recorded over the course of summer 2006. On October 19, the band announced they had finished recording.




Title and artwork


The album title itself is likely a reference to a line of dialogue spoken by the character of Mabel Longhetti (Gena Rowlands) in the 1974 John Cassavetes film A Woman Under the Influence. Having just seen her children taken off to school by their grandmother, Mabel states, "All of a sudden I miss everyone; I don't know why.".

The title of the song "The Birth and Death of the Day" appears in the 1952 novel East of Eden by John Steinbeck:
I remember that the Gabilan Mountains to the east of the valley were light grey mountains full of sun and loveliness and a kind of invitation, so that you wanted to climb into their warm foothills almost as you want to climb into the lap of a beloved mother. They were beckoning mountains with a brown grass love. The Santa Lucias stood up against the sky to the west and kept the valley from the open sea, and they were dark and brooding-unfriendly and dangerous. I always found in myself a dread of west and a love of east. Where I ever got such an idea I cannot say, unless it could be that the morning came over the peaks of the Gabilans and the night drifted back from the ridges of the Santa Lucias. It may be that the birth and death of the day had some part in my feeling about the two ranges of mountains.

The album artwork is by frequent collaborator Esteban Rey.
