Ok obviously we know them, but in my 19 years of listening to them I have met 2 or 3 people ( off the street ) who have heard of Between the Buried and Me. But I dare you to find a recent metal band, hardcore band, death metal, grind core what have you band that hasn't derived influence from them. Your thoughts?
Obviously the first two Between the Buried and Me albums had a different lineup and feel, but the self‑titled and The Silent Circus are completely different animals. Someone asked me what I thought of Camilla Rhodes, and honestly—outside of Mordecai, Reaction, and Ad A Dglgmut—I barely spent time with those records until recently. I even owned them on vinyl without ever opening them, which is definitely about to change.I’ve finally given both albums real attention, and they’re excellent. I’m literally listening to The Silent Circus right now. What were your own journeys with Between the Buried and Me’s early era? Did you get into those first two right away, or are they still waiting for you? I say this as someone who loved everything from Alaska onward. Ooo Destructo Spin just came on... Another good one. I guess It was really the self titled I had not really touched... Anyway your thoughts?
It's definitely Prequel to the Sequel. 6:50 - 7:35 The call and response is one of my favorite moments from any of their songs. Unfortunately it gets overshadowed by Ants of the Sky because it is my favorite. What about you?
Self Titled and Silent Circus are in storage somewhere... Just a few to go.
