Информация о группе Between the Buried and Me is a progressive metal band from North Carolina. The band's name is derived from a section of lyrics in Counting Crows’ song "Ghost Train": "Took the cannonball down to the ocean/Across the desert from the sea to shining sea/I rode a ladder that climbed across the nation/Fifty million feet of earth between the buried and me". Their follow-up to Colors, entitled The Great Misdirect is set to be released October 27th, 2009. Biography The band was founded in early 2001 in Raleigh, North Carolina by vocalist Tommy Rogers, guitarist Paul Waggoner, drummer Will Goodyear, guitarist Nick Fletcher (formerly Empire Falls), and bassist Jason King. Between the Buried and Me's first release was a three-song demo, containing the tracks "Use of a Weapon," "What We Have Become," and "More of Myself to Kill." These three tracks were re-recorded for the band's first full-length album, Between the Buried and Me, released on Lifeforce Records in 2002. Musical style varied, with hints of death metal, grindcore, indie, and thrash metal. This album includes the track "Arsonist," a protest against the beliefs and practices of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas. The song "Aspirations" became the band's first music video. This album is not widely known and the tracks are rarely played live, but it did get the attention of Victory Records, to which they later signed. Victory Records reissued the album in 2004 as an enhanced CD. In 2003, the band released their second studio album, The Silent Circus, featuring the singles "Mordecai", "Aesthetic", and "Camilla Rhodes". "Mordecai" was produced as their second music video. The album was re-released in 2006 with a live DVD of the band's performance at The Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill, North Carolina on July 17, 2005. Mark Castillo played drums on The Silent Circus replacing Will Goodyear however, on the live DVD Blake Richardson, Dustie Waring, and Dan Briggs had already joined the band and recording for Alaska was already finished. In early 2005 the band changed their lineup. Drummer Blake Richardson replaced Mark Castillo, bassist Dan Briggs replaced Jason King, and guitarist Dustie Waring replaced Nick Fletcher. In the summer of 2005, Between the Buried and Me released their third studio album, Alaska. The title track "Alaska" became their third music video. This release included the singles "Selkies: The Endless Obssession", "The Primer", and "Backwards Marathon". On this album the band shows their musical prowess, the last track on the CD "Laser Speed" mixes salsa with a conglomeration of traditional jazz and free form bossa nova. In 2006, the band released The Anatomy Of..., a collection of covers of bands that influenced Between the Buried and Me, including Metallica, King Crimson, Pantera, Queen, Pink Floyd, Earth Crisis, Counting Crows, and Blind Melon. In September 2007, the band released their fourth studio album, Colors. The band has said that "it's a 65 minute opus of non stop pummeling beautiful music... we have described this release as 'new wave polka grunge.'" On their website, they have also described it as "adult contemporary progressive death metal." On November 6, the song "Prequel to the Sequel" was made available as downloadable content for Rock Band and Rock Band 2 on the Playstation Store and Xbox Live Marketplace. On May 31, The group went into the studio to record their fifth original album The Great Misdirect. They have described one song as having "a noisy Coalesce breakdown, 3/4 Mastodon groove, 9/8 The Mars Volta, Queen chromatic build up, and Megadeth chorus". Tommy Rogers has stated they plan to 'out do Colors'. The Great Misdirect is scheduled for release on October 27. Style and influence Their sound incorporates many different musical styles: "One minute the band may be playing thrash metal and the next they're flowing into death metal growls and thick guitar riffs... the metal take on things can seemingly change in a flash as lead singer Tommy Rogers fleshes out his vocals and utilizes the keyboards to create something that sounds more like it should be on a Smashing Pumpkins album". On their covers album, The Anatomy Of, the band pays tribute to many of their diverse influences, including King Crimson, Soundgarden, Pantera, Pink Floyd, Earth Crisis, Dream Theater and Smashing Pumpkins. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Between_the_Buried_and_Me Участники Tommy Rogers - вокал, клавишные Paul Waggoner - гитара Dan Briggs - бас Dusty Waring - гитара Blake Richardson - барабаны Дискография Between The Buried And Me - 2002 The Silent Circus - 2003 Alaska - 2005 The Anatomy Of... - 2006 The Silent Circus - переиздание, 2006.
