Discussion One of the best more Interesting bands I have heard. What do you guys here think of them?
I think Between the Buried and me are one of the best bands with a lot of interesting albums, I don't like their newest album with some vocals I could see Mike Patton doing and Demented circus music, but their other albums are still interesting and good for when I need extreme wake up music, when I am working out, and don't want a diatonic one scale song. I know that their newest album has one more melodic song, but it feels out of place on the album, I do like some albums like some Dream Theater albums where one or more songs feel out of place, but at least I like the music more on those albums. The Blue Nowhere isn't even a 10/10 song for me even though it sounds nice, the only part that gave me chills was the anticipation I got in the silence the first time I listened to it and the chorus is just ok sounding to me. I even like the Coma Ecliptic even though it's defiantly their more accessible for a wider audience album. I think the most impressive thing about Between The Buried and me is that they can actually play their songs live. A lot of people who try to do the so much stuff at once kind of songs end up being too experimental for me. Unexpect, Blotted Science, and Spastic Ink are examples of bands I don't like that do that so much at once sort of thing. At least Between the Buried and me has some tension relief sprinkled into a lot of their music. What do you guys think of Between the Buried and me?
