[@The311wax1980]

I played nothing but this album in my car for months after its release, and I was a delivery driver at the time! I don't think I've ever listened to any album as much as this one, there's so much to enjoy it never got old.

[@metalmanny666]

[@AlewithDiamonds]

I feel you! I was obsessed with The Anatomy Ofat the beginning, The Great Misdirect was my next obssesion, but this one... I can't stop listening to it and this song it's pure magic.

[@patatejambom6310]

you right sir, i had to remember how good this is. been a while. blasted that album for 2 year everyday. i have seen them like 5 time on that album

[@sirkittius]

Great album

[@DarranKern]

Saw them live in Miami! They were dressed like characters from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. And they were fucking phenomenal. I went to see Coheed and Cambria, and left as a die-hard BTBM fan. My ears are still bleeding! XD

[@Shogun_Pink]

That’s amazing.

[@EuriLochus]

Even if you don't like this music, you have to admit this music video is pretty amazing and incredibly fitting for the complexities of this song

[@EuriLochus]

deFyne Indeed!

[@responsesMTL]

+EuriLochus I used to dislike this band because I didn't understand the concepts in prog metal, but now I fucking love this. Like the concept of whole tone transitions into other riffs, creating a smooth transition, something less heavy, out of tune but that make us appreciate the next riff more.

[@dropkickpennyday9576]

Yeah man! One thing about btbam... Is that you can totally hate them but... You cannot deny that they make good music in my opinion And I happen to love them so it's all good

[@Rurne]

First thing that popped to mind was some weird amalgam of Aronofsky’s “The Fountain” and Mastodon’s “Sleeping Giant”. Very cool indeed.

[@notsure1969]

Colors II is actually a great album, but you have to love them first and for most for their entire discography. They came to Burlington a year ago and played a chunk of it, and if you dig it then it’s super fun to see live. I love them, so it wasn’t hard for me to get interested in

[@boomboxlegends]

Been into metal for 25 yrs and these guys are one of my favorite bands ever. I seen them live along time ago, but i gotta catch them live, this yr.

[@basickrecords]

Easily one of our favourite bands. They just keep on impressing and impressing... the music, the video, everything = wow.

[@purpleAiPEy]

Have to analyze postmodernist elements in lyrics of a song, I chose the whole album. It's so good man... I though colors was the end all that nothing could beat, this album proved me wrong. Greatest band, greatest band live, man... Greatest MUSIC.. Thank you BTBAM.

[@unholyparagon5366]

It's upsetting that this band doesn't get the recognition they deserve ...let alone people that have been listening to them for years never truly realizing their artistry for syncing every music video with their incredible music concepts...

I have to say I am a synesthethe person. I always wanted to explain what's in my mind every time I hear prog rock or metal and this video shows exactly how I feel music. Great Band! Amazing! I just have discovered Between the Buried and Me.

[@SuperBassplayer77]

This is great musicianship. These guys are dedicated to MUSIC and they are really good at what THEY do. I like them because they don't seem to stick to one sound, album to album, or song to song. I don't ever get bored listening to them.

[@DoesNotApply]

Probably the most underrated band of all time.

[@KoopySandwiches]

I don't get why people are complaining about the screams when this song also contains some rather decent clean vocals.

[@Physk]

I enjoy screams a lot, they are just way out of place with the mood of the song at the beginning. BTBAM tries too hard to sound different sometimes, and it ends up holding them back a bit IMHO.

[@codekhalil6437]

@@Physk Agreed. Especially with the beauty of the video. I like sceams. But I think they would appeal to a MUCH larger audience (for this particular song) if they opened with clean vocals. Meh, they don't seem the type to care for a larger audience anyways :-)

[@TensaZangetsu1200]

[@jayzonedc6474]

​@@Physk They would be boring if they just did what other prog bands like Tool do. Having a a ten minute song with 8 minutes of slowly building tension is not what people enjoy about BTBAM. Rapidly changing moods is the appeal of metalcore.

[@Dinos4urFour]

This may very well be the best music video ever. And this song is truly incredible.

[@esperthebard]

Now it's time to go watch Mastodon's Steambreather.

[@biggmakisdead]

one of my favorite songs and music videos. i came to watch it, and everything is beautiful. the ending made me shed tears. i love you BTBAM. you are and always will be my favorite band ever. it sucks i wanted to see you in Seattle 2020 but pandemic hit. i hope you come to PNW someday. someday

[@_Captain_Benji_]

I can't be the only one who hears the guitar pattern at the beginning different every few times I hear this song

[@DJDavidShmosh]

+Caleb Willis BTBAM is like that. You know how you listen to a genre of music over and over, and after a while you can almost determine what notes and chords are played next? This band is the opposite. They are always a puzzle that is being built in front of me, and I never know which piece they are going to place next. Once it's finished I am mesmerized by what I just heard/ saw.

Is it just me, or is BTBAM like the metal version of Pink Floyd? The long ass songs, the varying styles, the psychedelic story archs in the albums, it all seems 'Floydian' to me.

I have always thought the same thing. Two bands decades apart that have similar musicalities. One is just a different stylistic approach of the other. I absolutely adore both bands.

[@jarredbarber]

seen this band 3 times. Adelaide twice and Wellington. Their Wellington concert was the best even tho in Adelaide it was the Parallax 2 tour. Wellington was a very small venue. I saw Dustie assault a fan. Pushed him out the door after the show, was epic, and I shook his hand afterwards because the guy deserved it.

[@acousticguy8]

In my opinion, Between the Buried and me is the only band that has actually continued to get better as they produce albums. It really is amazing how consistent they are in refreshing their riffs and what not. I believe their versatility plays a huge part in this as well.. And this concludes my essay on BTBAM is the best band in the universe. Good Night, and Go Fuck Yourself San Diego.
