Product Description
Album Description
BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME have built their reputation as one of hard rock’s most inventive and ambitious bands. Sharing a lineage with such luminaries as PINK FLOYD, KING CRIMSON and TOOL, they continue to explore new territory with a genuine passion to push themselves and their audience. They dream the impossible and they make it happen time and time again. Looking at their hugely celebrated catalog, it’s exciting to see how far they’ve come and how deep they are willing to go. Venturing into each record is like exploring undiscovered country. From the progressive metal stomp of their self-titled debut, followed by the melancholy of The Silent Circus and then the claustrophobic Alaska, BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME continue to evolve into a new pedigree that defies any categorization.

Remarkable, and Exceptional,
By
This review is from: Colors (Audio CD)
This is an album that every rock enthusiast should own, or at least have a listen to. "Colors" smashes you in the face, carries you away, soaring through the clouds, and instills a profound message, seemingly without really trying. These guys are good. Really good. Exceptional, abstract musicianship is at the forefront throughout. Not to be taken lightly.

Good music overall,
By Joe (Toronto, Ontario) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Colors (Audio CD)
I bought this randomly, hearing only their name once before. I put the cd in my computer and it sounds good, very technical. The only downfall of this cd is the EQ. It consistently changes, going up and down. I really hate when this happens.Im not sure if they wanted the EQ like that on purpose or not. Find a sample site or go to HMV and listen before you buy. :)

Album Of The Year,
By Greg - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Colors (Audio CD)
Words cannot describe this cd. BTBAM get better and better with every album. As other reviewers have mentioned, you can definitely hear more progressive influence, but they still keep it heavy and technical. Everyone is at the top of their game on this album. When I first saw that it was only 8 tracks, I was wondering how they could accomplish an album superior to Alaska. I then saw the lengths of the songs and knew they were going to be epic tracks, to the opening piano in "Foam Born: (a) The Backtrack" to the amazing closer and my personal favorite song by BTBAM ever "White Walls", this album never lets down. There's so many different influences in this album, and it goes to show that BTBAM are the top of their class. Every album by this band has been amazing, and this is just another one to add to the list.Album of the year for me. 15 of 15 people found the following review helpful

Greatness...Amazing...Stunning.,
By John Curtis "The Music" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Colors (Audio CD)
I have to say that this album is the perfect album. Like the Beatles White Album, and Metallica's Black Album. We now get the greatest album of them all BTBAM "colors." Every single song on this album is amazing, and very well put together. I have been listening to BTBAM since Silent Circus, and it seems to me that instead of them becoming more "flowery," (as someone put on a recent review of the album) I am finding them becoming something more imaginable, intelligent, and put simply just amazing artist. I am stunned by this album, and I can not stop playing it. To give this album anything less than a five is shocking to me. You have to listen to it and understand it's pure genius. I recommend this album to anyone who respects music, and loves music from a progressive stance. Music is meant to evolve, not sit around like a bunch of retards like some of the most recent songs I hear today. SO give it a shot it's awesome.

LOL - No apt words...,
By Christopher Wood "anima300" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Colors (Audio CD)
You know what the problem was? I don't think most people are ready for the insanity and complexity and progginess that Between the Buried and Me had to offer on this album. I liked Alaska quite a bit, but this seriously blew it out of the damn water like a nuclear cannon. They offer nothing subtle to you, there are no stupid segues into anything, it's just visceral and insane.I was actually shocked that enjoyed this album upon first listen, though, I have been quite privy to music like this, as I like Spiral Architect, Dillinger Escape Plan, Opeth, Dream Theater, and most other progressive metal and mathcore bands. You probably won't like this upon first listen, especially if you're new to material such as this. You have to pay attention and give it a chance, honestly. This isn't radio friendly, in the least. Just buy it and listen to it, if for nothing else to expand your horizons. |
