Another band that I'm getting more and more into lately, their newest album "Colors" is starting to really grow on me!

Great musicians, tight and complex riffs and diversity beyond anything. Very cool band indeed.

Here's some videos from youtube:

What do you guys think about them?

the guitar is good but screaming is not my bag. They are good but could be better with less screaming. Idk, thats just me.

awesome. im almost afraid to get more of their stuff, as it might make the rest of my music collection look boring in comparison!

I like them from time to time. That kind of music bores me really easy.

My friend showed this band to me... It was my thought exactly. The songs of theirs called "Medicine Wheel" was very, very good though...

Yeah, I totally get your point guys, a lot of people don't like screaming

I've been listening to a lot of BTBAM lately. I just recently got into them. I really like Ants of the Sky and White Walls.
By the way... how do you like your ESP EC-1000? I haven't been able to find one with the Semour Duncans like yours, only the EMGs. I like the EMG version, but wanted to try out one like yours before making any decisions...

I like parts of the few songs I've heard. What I don't like about them is that they are a bit too much "-core" for me, both the guitars and the screams, what's wrong with good old proper death growls?

Anyways, they are great musicians, and some parts of their songs are amazing, and the rest I can't really get into since I really have trouble with core'ish music. Theyy've got my easily earned respect though.

I really like my EC-1000, and yeah I prefer this version with the passive pickups rather than the one with the EMG's too. But hey, you can always change the pickups

Im going to see Bodom next month and this band is a support act. I'll let you know how they are.

Yeah, I dig the musicians in this band. The guitarist do some interesting things.

ME TOO i dunno where im seeing them though, my friend bought tickets for us!

I really like Between the Buried and me, their album colours is fantastic. my favorite song is son of nothing

The Seymour Duncan fitted ESP EC1000's only (almost) come in the color Amber Sunburst (EC-1000 ASB). I think that color only comes with SD's too so look for that color There are some variations like Eclipse II Vintage HoneyBurst (it has "worn" look). The Will Alder signature also come with Seymour Duncans.

I am thinking of getting me either an ESP with SD's too but I would like the Eclipse rather than the EC1000 but I am not too exited about getting a guitar that is worn before I even get it

Cool, I would really appreciate the info. I've heard that they are awesome live, and that reminds that I think they are releasing a Live DVD soon.

Between The Buried And Me are a superb group of musicians, there isn't one person in that band that doesn't deserve the title of virtuoso. Colors is my favorite album by them, With Alaska as a close second.

If you havent heard the song "Selkies: The Endless Obsession", You must check it out

Posted by: Toni Suominen Aug 26 2008, 10:47 AM

Colors is my favourite too, the last song "White Walls" is so gooood!

I love BTBAM and have done for a long time. I really like their covers album also. Blackened, Cemetery Gates and Us and Them are great

They really do the solos in their own style. The Blackened solo kicks arse.
