I'm actually a bit surprised to hear people disliking the vocals. They're very organic and raw unlike many modern bands' vocals and they're quite well done. This video also proves that they have no problem pulling them off and getting their voices to mesh together well live. I like it a lot!

[@OrpheusVA]

+Kasey Porter people tend to like being spoon fed with only the cleanest, clearest vocals... which is weird to me, since this is metal, and you know, like you said, organic and raw is its' thing.

[@frankbrazil7918]

the vocals for the most part are too sucky for the heavy backdrop. ill deal with the vocals but im not excited about them. this drummer is off the hook though!

[@PCPAyLOAD]

+Frank Brazil Yeah,,,, completely disagree. They are what they are and its beautiful. It makes them unique.

[@frankbrazil7918]

+Dr. Poogobbler i take it back. ive gotten used to it. the vocals actually back the song not the other way around. killer hooks.

[@samuelsantos-bu3xy]

it's not that they suck, it's that every part they sing in most of the songs sounds exactly the same. so for me it tends to get boring

[@CuddleShit2]

I'm in love with the bass player. He's an incredibly skilled player, and has quite possibly (in my opinion) the best bass tone I've ever heard. It sits so well in the mix and compliments the music perfectly. The musicianship in this band is outstanding, but it's always nice to see a skillful bass player who really shines.

[@fanfarorro]

Joey is such nice person

[@Daws867]

So true...One of my favourite bands is PRIMUS. Les is on levels tho. A really good bassist sticks out like a sore thumb.

[@SoilentGr33n]

Check out the intronaut "rig rundown" Joe goes in detail about his setup and why he's always been after the brightest tone he could get to find his place. He is a fucking phenomenal bass player

[@JediMobius]

For real. Is that a fretless?

[@LordLuc94]

I'm a guitarist and I agree.

[@TheJohnGway]

Fucking incredible band.

[@IDontReadReplies42069]

+TheJohnGway I wouldn't say incredible, inoffensive yes, incredible, nah. Zappa is incredible.

[@TheJohnGway]

Aye! Zappa is incredible! Though I do enjoy these guys quite a lot, surely incredible to me.

[@jpt1134]

+TheJohnGway For sure incredible. See them live for sure.

[@TheJohnGway]

+Jordan Thaler I actually have with BTBAM a few months ago in Toronto. They were sick as fuck! I was front bar so I got to see n hear everything perfect.

[@jasonnorkeveck4797]

Mad respect for these guys. fabulous musician ship. and i cant believe they can sing and play those confusing rhythms at the same time! so good

[@mokodo_]

ridiculously underrated musicians, i really hope they get a break someday

[@gianlucacabria925]

Still ridicously under-rated. Shame.

[@Nickraculous]

STILL ridiculously underrated

[@meatball707]

The best part is the guitarist makes his own guitars now! They’re amazing, Dunable Guitars! The one that’s in the back against the wall is one of his. Was in the one guitarist hands at first, then it was sent to the corner.

[@Coryiodine]

They're also douches in real life so I don't mind. besides the bassist Joe Lester. He's cool af

[@davidaraya4092]

Ridículo es tu comentario ,tocan muy bien sus instrumentos ,aunque no me gustó su canción, el arte es subjetivo

[@6sentient]

movement starting at 02:33 is musical perfection.it has groove,ambient,feel,melody and catchiness.oh,and the most legendary bass fucking sound EVER.

[@vicegirlsusa]

The tone he gets on that bass is incredible. I wish I knew the secret to it.

[@ZodiacMeatgrinder]

id say its the amp, for bass guitar you need the sound of a tube amp. all the nicely compressed tight low end and movement in the room comes from the tubes. check ampeg-amps if you are searching for some high quality stuff.

[@ChristopherRoss.]

+ZodiacMeatgrinder I disagree. Not that tubes sound bad, but the best sounding amp I've ever heard is the GK2001RB, a tubeless amp. With bass (because its rare that you overdrive it through the amp--at least in my experience), the characteristics of the head (tube vs diode, for example) are less staggering than on a guitar head. Each have their pros and cons, but neither is the "only viable choice", so to speak.

[@ChristopherRoss.]

+VICEGIRLS And to answer your question, I think the main ingredient to his tone is that he's playing a fretless. They tend to have that sound to them. The pickups and amp head will also play into the tone shape to a lesser degree.

[@Kathayne636]

+VICEGIRLS The secret is that it's fretless and he doesn't mid scoop.

[@mauricioribeiro3547]

the song which opens one of the most amazing albums I've heard. I'm happy to know and listen to these guys. Greetings from Brazil

[@elahem6940]

Just found these guys and I love it! I hear a lot of 80s King Crimson in their sound

[@ChefShamsher]

these guys are freaking titans of music, it is hard to pull of songs like these live

[@MultiCynicism]

Danny Walker is hands down one of the most epic prog drummers :)

[@meatbagAZ]

I still love this band so much

[@raffertyrulez438]

damn this is a huge bass sound

[@abdullaalmarri4562]

This has to be one of the best melody my ears have ever digested.

[@Drew.DrivesYT]

Everybody needs to experience this band live. On mushrooms.

[@Shevanelcutabitch]

Ozma2112 yes Bro!

[@111usul]

last thing I would do on shrooms is go listen a concert

[@imbroglio970]

Fuck yes my dude. Last concert before quarantine was Devin Townsend, Haken, Contortionist and golden teachers \m/

[@o_Toman]

@@imbroglio970 Im seeing Haken and Between the buried and Me on February on my birthday. Lucky me. Hail the prog.

[@daverlb]

Discovered these guys today!!! Unreal!!

[@jatza07]

Yes!!! I have this song in loop for last three days . It is mind blowing

[@FreakOUT591]

The drummer is amazing

[@Gonko100]

Absolutely flawless, extremely elegant, almost perfect progrock. Bravo

[@martialmusicman]

The two guitarists may not be the best pure singers, but the band is tight and unique, and the vocal parts are well-written and executed for what the vocalists' abilities are.

[@Kathayne636]

Exactly. They aren't overreaching.

[@JediMobius]

I think it fits the music very well. Much less aggressive than their earlier stuff, vocally, too.

[@llKoopav2ll]

sonic slaughter That comment is fair and i agree. Many people have to understand that like 90% of the musicians in the field of extreme metal are first and foremost instrumentalists as which they also started and not singers. Intronaut and Mastodon are a very good example of that.

[@LordLuc94]

@@llKoopav2ll Although Mastodon's talented drummer(!!) could have purely been a singer too. Talented singer.

[@KalebBirdsong]

How am I just now finding out about these guys? So good!

[@darthpunk5455]

Just please come to Australia, we deserve you.

[@TheJwarrior16]

Habitual Levitations is a masterpiece! what a trip!

[@TheUmart]

about band not being very active during this performance,just try yourself to play this complicated song in one take,without even one error.stellar performance guys!!!!

[@Grumplestilskinn]

best band around.

[@trohan6415]

Scale the Summit........

[@CatsCoffeeGuitars]

Nah :D

[@skanka4646]

I bought their album Void on a whim and they have been one of my favourite bands ever since. Incredible band

[@JetNAmplify]

tool meets mastadon kinda

[@spacemanchriss]

Eh.. Yeah... Kinda.... Ok

[@alexd2227]

My thoughts exactly. They're fucking incredible.

[@sadstatue25]

I say they are the metal Pinback.

[@imadrumbass]

The drummer has so much groove. A huge addition to their music.

[@readonly999]

they are Intronauts. each member plays in his own bubble, completely engulfed by the music.

[@LordLuc94]

And still it's all in synch.. impressive..

[@josephclerici]

"Danny Walker: Drums" And how!

[@ReinZ_96]

Reminds me a little bit of The Ocean...dig it :D

[@remileclair]

Tool meets the Ocean, hehehe. Going to see The Ocean on Saturday, so pumped!

[@tstochuj]

now that you mentioned it, it does sound like The Ocean at times

[@MTSpade]

The Ocean?? wtf, they sound NOTHING like them, and tool, gtfo

[@TheGuitarifier]

@@MTSpade you're a fucking idiot. They play the same brand of metal as the ocean. And there is DEFINITELY tool influence. Most prog these days has some tool influence. You dumb or just stupid?

[@MongolianAutobot]

@@remileclair nice, I love the ocean.

[@Flokker]

The insinuations that every single prog band is TOOL influenced has been old before it even started. I'm just going to say that TOOL is very mozart influenced.

[@remileclair]

Except... you know... it's probably true for a lot of post-2000 bands that sound like this. :-P

[@bryangluce]

I don't know who you've been listening to, as far as people's "insinuations". But I don't hear anyone referencing Tool as an influential part of their music. Don't worry or give a shit about what other people say. If anyone were to say that to me I wouldn't say anything but just shake my head in disdain at how arrogant, ignorant and stupid that person is for saying such things. Plus if Tool was an influence in Intronaut's music why does that matter? Tool is and always will be incredibly fucking badass. Why not be influenced by greatness?

[@JediMobius]

Lol. I love that! But yeah, people will compare anything rhythmically different to Tool if it lives anywhere outside of the 4-4 time signature, as if Tool invented syncopation. Blame radio.

[@matthewhurley4455]

Tool actually lifted a lot of their shit from King Crimsons album "Red". And don't get me wrong Tool was the band that got me into this type of music, but just saying, nothing is really original and hardcore Tool fans who think every other remotely similar band ripped them off need to learn that.

[@brothermanv]

Fantastic. I enjoy seeing/live arrangements that are close to the record

[@connedwards7030]

Vocals are phenomenal, band is cosmic.

[@spacemanbose]

amazing volcals. amazing music

[@LautloseLebwerwurst3000]

I adore Sacha's vocals on this one! They're both good singers and the band altogerther ist just insane, but on this one, I think Sacha's vocals sound very special and differebnt from anything else I heard - maybe you could call it a "bluesy growl" or so?

[@megazaider1051]

this band is cool, im really glad for your existence

[@Karbz_]

they got a freaking amasingly talented drummer, really knows what he is doing, he allways steps outside the box

[@MapleLeafs96]

Discovered this band a year back..ever since that I’m hooked

[@Svagtpositiv]

top 10 intro drum fills of all time

[@miguelangelmiranda8460]

Im gonna see these guys alive next december, they may not play this awesome song but im still excited

[@Marshallstack3203]

Haven't heard of them until that first EMG TV video. Really diggin' these dudes.

[@daviddevilliers2828]

Brilliant, very groovy. Fantastic I love you guys

[@darthpunk5455]

This is ridiculously good.

[@NYPATRIOTBX]

Awesome band

[@FreddieMaranzano]

A really great performance.

[@ChildOfKos]

listening to this for the first time now.. can't tell what took me so long! I love it, some of the riffs sound a lot like Mastodon to me. Guess i have to buy some records now!

[@ChegzGT1EB]

Their drummer is fantastic, really tasteful grooves

[@BoBz013]

i love the dynamics at the end fading out :)

[@mpclark31]

Simply amazing!

[@anotherdaysarmor6882]

These guys are the only progressive band I actually like after Dream Theater. The way the blend jazz into metal is so sick

[@Posirep]

They dont blend jazz into songs as well as Between The Buried and Me do. That being said Intronaut is beastly.

[@mobius1ization]

InvisibleTeeth You are awsome!

[@BonnotAR]

check out cynic.

[@SoilentGr33n]

Between the buried and me sounds like parody sometimes, Intronaut is much more focused.,

[@JediMobius]

Check out Panzerbalett. German death jazz. Also, twelve foot ninja - more a fusion of funk and metal, but the jaziness is in there.

[@gbr_hrvth]

I N T R O N A U T - come to Hungary. ...and have a nice trip!

[@jesselough]

NICE performance. So stoked to see these guys soon, and EMG, more full band performances like this! It all sounds so damn good!

[@londonhardcorekid]

I fucking love the part right at 2:34. That riff is fucking awesome and then when the bass and drums come in it's absolutely heavenly.

[@x_hunter00]

Just discovered another new band because I'm going to a Between the Buried and Me Concert!! ;D

[@Masdylon]

Check out deafheaven too. Another band I'm looking forward to see on the tour, but completely different from these guys.

[@bryangluce]

I love the beginning of this song. Trippy time signature.

[@Blood_fog]

It's actually in 3/4. But the drums are playing a polyrhythm.

[@rgspadafora]

Wow now this is music. Amazing

[@diegoheco]

The vocals have been improved in the last album, and that's fucking awesome

[@ofdiscord]

REALLY digging this drummer's work. Not sure exactly why but he really stands out to me.

[@Beaver1969]

Because he's amazing?

[@SarkagianGaribaldian]

His name is Danny Walker, he's also part of a grindcore band called Murder Construct.

[@chrisrinehart4008]

Saw these guys live with Between the buried and me in El Paso. I had known nothing about them and they really blew me away.

[@skalamaz3]

Pure greatness. Got to see them perform the songs off this album in 2013 and they were amazing and very loud. Those Mesa amps with Gibsons don't play.

[@alvarovicenteguardiola5175]

Una de las mejores bandas existentes por no decir la mejor, su música es increíble... Debería de estar más reconocido su trabajo, son espectaculares, mucho respeto para músicos como ellos 🤘🤘🤘❤️

[@MTSpade]

These guys have been one of my fav bands ever since they opened for Mastodon(another fav band) on their Crack the Skye tour, its impossible not to love everything they do, theyre all so fucking talented, but I love this song especially, they were great doing metal vocals, but this song proves they can be amazing even when they tone it back and do something different, I actually kind of prefer it

[@adrianoa.j.5788]

Dude, the guy even plays with a fretless bass, just insane!

[@turbomustang84]

I love this band........fantastic live

[@KINGD0RKtheFIRST]

I think I may have just found my favorite band ever... :'3

[@Seamussor]

First time I heard these guys I thought, "wow, it's like Mastodon and Tool had a baby, just with more genes from Mastodon because I can stand to listen to them for more than 5 minutes."

[@yanivisawesome]

does the day keep you up at night? hard to say, after all we've tried as everywhere and everything disappears before my very eyes i crawl back to the places i've been before i know the way to the only thing that's real so why am i always so close when i decide to walk away?

[@AnwayPramanik]

Wow, now I regret missing them live in Bangalore

[@xAfroMetalHead1990x]

Fucking INCREDIBLE.

[@ForeverInBetweenBand]

wow love the vocals.

[@MikeRatcliffe2014]

So good! Love it.

[@ballsagna5828]

Still one of my favorite bands ever.

[@Soullateralus1]

I Love This Song And This Band!!!

[@marcelotorres3285]

I get goose bumps every. time.

PERFECTION.

[@ashwinjacob7336]

Danny walker is just phenomenal!

[@jackpaice]

cool stuff!

[@NenedzhyanStudios]

First time I've seen Sacha without his signature brand. At the show I went to, he didn't swap out his Dunable once. Sounds cool w/ those EMGs on a Les Paul Custom 59'

[@Rlyhyne]

Most likely playing it because the Dunable guitars he’s got probably aren’t loaded with EMG’s, And this is an EMG video. Agreed though, sounds really good.

[@MorbidObscurity]

This band is fucking incredible. Every instrument is just perfect.

[@witchbvrner]

Bravo!!!

I saw them on that same tour in NYC....didn't care too much for Meshuggah, but Animals and Intronaut NEVER disappoint.
