Between The Buried And Me

Colors was the best album that I bought in 2008. Funny thing is, I bought Emmure's newest CD and Colors at the same time, I listened to BTBAM way more. Prequel To The Sequel was epic.
 
fucking fucking fucking amazing! yes, it deserves three fuckings! lol. i'm listening to their self-titled right now. pure genius in my opinion. ive never heard such a great corabonation of death metal, metalcore, and emo. :D cant get enough of it.

share your thoughts on BTBAM.
 
You know, I just randomly happened across this group via YouTube and was kind of intrigued. I like their sound, but there's something that puts me off about them. I'm not quite sure what it is. Then again, there are a lot of groups that do this exact thing to me.

My initial impression was that I like them. Lol, my long-winded-ness; let me show you it.
 
The first BTBAM album I got was The Silent Circus. A few great songs on there, mainly "Mordecai"... of course. That seems to be the ol' staple for most fans. But a lot of the really soft stuff got on my nerves with a quickness. But when Alaska came out, I got it anyway, and it turned me into a big fan of those guys. And I picked up The Anatomy Of... the next summer. Their cover of "Blackened" by Metallica breathed new life into. And their covers of "Three of a Perfect Pair" and "Malpractice" renewed my interests in Kind Crimson and Faith no More. Not to mention "Bicycle Race" never sounded bad ass by any means until I heard BTBAM's version. Between the Buried and Me are one of those banRAB that their past couple albums were strong and fresh enough to keep you interested in them until the next came out. Colors lived up to every expectation and bypassed any scrutiny that I had for versus Alaska.
 
I just saw them last night in Nashville on the first date of the Great Misdirect Tour, and holy fuck it was intense.

the setlist was:
Obfuscation
Disease, Injury, Madness
More of Myself to Kill
Alaska
Ants of the Sky
Swim to the Moon
encore: Viridian + White Walls

I got kneed in the stomach during DIM, it was the most awesome knee to the stomach I've ever had.

WorRAB can hardly describe my love for this album. It's singularly perfect. Every song writhes with emotion and power. Every note expresses itself and every word carries meaning. This album got me into heavy music. I first heard the self-titled disc about 3 years ago, and I still listen to it several times a week. No matter what type of music you listen to, you HAVE to get this cd.

Amazing musicians with remarkable versatility, but I get a little burned out with Tommy's low end vocals. They're kinda thin, you know? And they tend to go on for too long. The guy can sing like a bastard, though, and he doesn't skimp on the nasty live. I still love the band. I'm happy if a song of theirs is stuck in my head.
