Between The Buried And Me: Bloom (Live)

[@MyTunerLock]

I am a classical violinist but I love metal and this music too. For me these guys are VERY VERY GENIUS. I was thrilled with light tears!!! This is very wonderful!!!!!

[@BTBAM819]

One of the most unique prog songs I've ever heard, someone agrees?

[@Krimson5pride]

Henkael oingo boingo disagrees

[@jessicagrayson2138]

"Beebop skippity tippity tap those toes" - Thomas Giles Rogers Jr.

[@TundraCH]

1:16 "Bebop skippity tippity tap those toes "

[@jwalkblue7]

TundraL5Z the most metal lyrics off all-time

[@tomgoldman2885]

Okaaay Between the Bungle and me.

[@Vagipatch]

And it’s absolutely awesome that they not only came up with this music and made the album, but decided to return to the studio to play it live in its entirety with no break really to speak of and with very few and minor mistakes Give homage where it is due and recognize genius (in every sense of that overused word) when it appears For another even better example of their range and talent, listen to “the proverbial bellow”

[@allencbr6001]

that vocal effect tho 1.10 2.43 2.55.....i can't get enough of this song lately deff very unique n talented band right here

[@mark7166]

I've got to be honest - I don't know how people slam their newer stuff. It is SOOOOOOO good!

[@XIV33]

MA L because people hate change.

[@catshumpcats3]

That's a common side effect of a double digit IQ.

[@PullpinVa]

MA L because it's experimental and a bit out there. Technically they've never been better

[@bigwilliestyle6416]

Too prog for their feeble minds

[@metalbudsgaming8371]

their new stuff is so much better. But some people just like chugs and grunts.

[@scotchedtape]

Huge Patton influence, love it.

[@dcquence]

Channeling Mr Bungle here

[@maaxalvarez]

is this what aliens listen to. it's so beyond normal humans

[@xgum]

this band includes the best of the best on all fronts

[@k.l.c.frierson4254]

Omygah they're just sooooogood. one of my favorite bands

[@nuke97]

This has way more OINGO BOINGO style influences than any other band.

[@blacknwhite6186]

I wanna see them live before I die love.

[@TylerJMacDonald]

I think Dan wrote this whole song? it's really wonky, and I love it

[@sloyer666]

Amazes me to this day ..its so f perfect but cant describe why -_- . Love it ;)

[@lucifersam99]

Compositionally, it's pretty directly inspired by Aram Khachaturian's "Sabre Dance", which makes me love it even more.

[@catshumpcats3]

Wait, dan wrote this whole song? No wonder why this is the song that got me stuck to BTBAM. Dan IMO is the most talented out of a group of some of the most talented musicians.

[@kux0]

its wonky as fuck. Its hard to tell who wrote what.. in the guitar book they are all credited with every song, but the bass carries this song so it make sense to me. DOPE.

[@sinisterBOB9]

Damn, I wanted to see some more of those bass fills. The way they're written out in Dan's tab book, I don't think they're physically possible.

[@thesecretsuccsociety856]

I know right, i talked with dan himself (i went to a small show in athens ga) he said he just hits random notes within the area shown in the tabs

[@mateolv]

Love this song. My favourite album. From 1:44 to 2:00 is sooooo The Mars Volta.

[@rubenaguilar666]

mateolv holy shit he reminds me of cedric

[@mateolv]

@@rubenaguilar666 right?!!

[@BTBAM819]

Love the surf part so much. Very Bungle-ish song, one of my favorites for sure.

[@sportsterfanatic6593]

Dam! You sold another album! Blake, I saw your article in Modern Drummer and I'm just now getting to hear you on YT. Any drummer who mentions Bobby Rock as an influence has got my vote. These youngster still don't have a clue even with all that's out there to learn from, that it takes a lot work, dedication and fucking practice. Rock on dude!

[@Foxdie2117]

Blake is the best out there

[@jkol323]

they didn't sync the studio version dude, that's all live recorded sound and playing. they're that good

[@Zooropa_Station]

You must have missed the winky face at the end.

[@theentiresovietunion6235]

Can attest seen them live 12 times now and I dont think I've ever heard a mistake

[@Lieutenant_Dude]

You're 100% correct. This was done with studio musicians to hit the extra instrumentation, like we saw with thew saxophonist.

[@sikkbeetz8541]

I need this DVD

[@wakingupfrom]

I love these guys

[@jeremypringle9123]

beautiful, beautiful band. i eat up everything this band put forth.

[@returntolifeband]

2:42 what

[@tho4life611]

We uuuuuussed youuuu

[@TundraCH]

Alkalilee it's the voice was scary sea monsters!

[@InfinityPotato97]

03:02 That moment xD

[@zabel102359]

Shoulda had melting city/bloom together in the video since they transition into each other. Either way amazing!

[@eduardojosesevillalobo3309]

Awesome man I love this band.

[@andrecastro8387]

Instrumental excelente, vocal terrivel !!!!

[@patrickfavreau5478]

great scott its a blooming good song hahaha YES

[@xgum]

2:13 feels like a whitehouse reference

[@austint1151]

I like they added the outro to telos

[@AlastAum]

what music would sound like if Mike Patton's Fantomas Evolved

[@syborgjawaka429]

Alast Aum I want Patton and Dweezil to do something together

[@hcaz5818]

Alast Aum more like if mr bungle would have stayed together

[@thetasworld]

Jesus fucking Christ...epic epicness

[@wesliggett2454]

The Adam Levine of metal. They are great!

[@raitoxote]

OMG try watching this at 1.5 x speed

[@lluse15]

Now Thomas looks odd with short hair

[@Oh_its_Mike]

Tommy is legit top 5 vocalists to ever live.

[@StefanoMei]

1:26 so bluesy :)

[@beto1580]

Tommy is the best singer/growler of all time!

[@xoadversity]

yeaaaaah, cause that's what we're calling it apparently... "singing"

[@Oh_its_Mike]

He definitely sings...a lot. Hello?

[@Oh_its_Mike]

He really is. He's so quirky and versatile in his technique. its incredible.

[@Bruno-gj5vn]

And I bet they weren't even high when they wrote that!

[@phoenixpruett2097]

If btbam released Anarchists of good taste.

[@blossm4002]

Category gaming

[@lolh4x]

Mike Portnoy's drum kit towers above him. Blake Richardson towers above his drum kit.

[@oliverdrew1803]

sistem of a dow 0:25

[@javgerv6623]

Circus nightmare

[@mdd47]

How somebody can even conceive of this stuff, much less be able to perform it is beyond my comprehension

[@thetasworld]

You are not alone buddy...

[@da_gamers_loft0941]

Is that an unreleased song? Where is it from? Love it!!

[@joshownz49709]

Da_Gamers_Loft 0 Idk if you figured it out already but it's from Parallax 2: Future Sequence.

[@massive_gaming8452]

This isnt how it is on the blu-ray - this sounds like the cd audio laid on top of the video (poorly)

[@sproaty]

It definitely does not...

[@Vagipatch]

It’s painfully obvious you haven’t listened to the studio recording and this beside each other because even to a damn novice it should be obvious this is live...mistakes (albeit very few) and all

[@CarlosDaniel-cz5oj]

Music funny.

[@cobimundler]

Pink carpet? Really?

[@mstwntd69]

Cause that's what's weird about this song...

[@Bruford79]

Dream Theater?

[@DeathFrankCore]

on steroid

[@Tibal4444]

soad influence

[@wilfordgrimley4339]

Tibal4444 lol no

[@18FrozenAngels]

Vocally, maybe.

[@victorfernandes5191]

More like a Mr. Bungle influence

[@ramonsanchez5223]

This ain't Ricky rosé

[@washburn11000]

All tho I'm not really into these dudes but my friends are Mirrors is a bad ass tune tho but this is different and metal kids can be some of the most closed minded ppl I've ever met

[@ehyooo]

although this sounds like recycled songs from Alaska, i still dig it a lot

[@hollowroots2197]

That just means it's BTBAM.

[@osu2238]

Alex O'Masta this doesn't sound anything like Alaska

[@davidl.7027]

Nothing like Alaska

[@buckfuttler2877]

absolutely ZERO alaska vibes in this song. whatchu talkin bout willis!???

[@javierquintero8705]

dureforsog anyone?

[@dimaskurnia7835]

is the drummer inspired by portnoy?

[@Ayano75]

NOOOO

[@dimaskurnia7835]

+Adrian Fadhil influenced?

[@Ayano75]

+Dimas Kurnia emang ada unsur portnoynya sih. menurut gw malah lebih ke minnemann ya. tapi keseluruhan masih megang richardson sih dibanding portnoy. powernya keluar bgt doi

[@dimaskurnia7835]

+Adrian Fadhil yea, jiwa muda. dulu portnoy muda jg ngebet mainnya jaman rambutnya masih panjang sepantat wwwww

[@Turkey_Fart]

BTBAM did tour with Dream Theater in 2009 but Blake is WAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than Portnoy.

[@C_Cradle_e]

man,) you're not serj tarinyan from SOAD

[@rotemshoshani424]

James Tack yea, he's a hell lot better.

[@jjmah7]

Very System of a Down-ish

[@mrtalkative91]

I LOVE btbam, but they really need to stop doing so many circus music, oingo boingo sounding parts

[@benjaminroy15]

No they don't

[@orasion72]

I see why I've never checked this band out before. This sounds not very good at all. not hating on people that like it, just sayin.

[@Kole777]

+orasion72 Probably the WORST first song to hear from them. That being said, this song is weird and awesome.

[@kitpalmer1583]

come on, you can't possibly dislike a dude death growling the words "bebop skippity tippity tap those toes"

[@themoosemooseV2]

100% Agreed with Kole777 xD start with something easier to choke down first like "Selkies: The Endless Obsession," or the music vid for their new song "The Coma Machine"

[@TheDonkeyFLOPPER]

+Taylor Harman nah man, if someone cant enjoy something as quick and unique as bloom they don't deserve to listen to the greats like selkies or white walls

[@kitpalmer1583]

TheDonkeyFLOPPER "deserve"? grow up lmao

[@joecdude3381]

Great musicians? Yes good music ? NO

[@Corpsefiend91]

Alaska...never forget. This is lame.

[@felipe8511]

lol

[@Keverember]

Get out.

[@Corpsefiend91]

+Kevin Oliver alaska, never forget.

[@Keverember]

I love Alaska as much as the next guy, but these guys get better with every project.

[@jrtakesthesky27]

+Kevin Ruffolo What are you, 12?

[@satanicconservative3935]

This isn’t synced btw. Lol.
