Between The Buried And Me writing new album

Tuesday, December 16, 2008 10:13 AM PT


Now that they've finished up the touring cycle for their last album, Between The Buried And Me is currently holed up in their Winston-Salem, NC practice facility writing their next release. One song has been completed thus far and according to bass player Dan Briggs, "there's an extreme abundance of great musical ideas flowing out of us."

Writing will continue through December, and resume in mid-February, as the band will take a break in January to tour Australia. Photos from the writing sessions can be viewed here.

"Yeah, we've written 127 distinct song segments that don't fit together at all, but I'll be damned if we won't try to mash them all together!"

North Carolina never really produced good music...except BtBaM's S/t...I draw the line on silent circus...but I can't think of anything else decent in NC

12/16/2008 12:35:27 PM
LOLZ @ bottle of clorox... Wonder if its a hint as to how sanitary and sterile this record will sound...

12/16/2008 12:38:39 PM

12/16/2008 1:12:59 PM

12/16/2008 1:17:03 PM
Colors was actually a nice surprise to me. I think that's a solid release. Wouldn't get myself excited for disappointment though.

12/16/2008 1:28:43 PM
Bro-ski can actually transcribe what he's playing? That seems beyond the normal LG crowd.......

12/16/2008 1:37:02 PM
anyone that talks shit on BTBAM can S a D...you're just jealous cause you can't play like these dudes.

12/16/2008 1:45:51 PM

12/16/2008 2:14:04 PM

12/16/2008 2:17:34 PM

12/16/2008 2:17:55 PM

12/16/2008 2:47:38 PM
Definitely looking forward to this. Colors was amazing.

12/16/2008 3:53:03 PM
Stoked on this. Never dissapoint. Can't wait to see how they follow up colors.

12/16/2008 4:30:34 PM
they need to go back to sound they had on silent circus

12/16/2008 4:40:23 PM
I'm excited, regardless what they do.

12/16/2008 6:34:33 PM
i'm excited about this

12/16/2008 6:40:26 PM
Someone hopes there's a new Giles record?

12/16/2008 6:53:01 PM
The silent circus was dope. Definitely their best cd so far. They seemed like they tried too hard on colors.

12/16/2008 6:59:04 PM
i'm down for this.

12/16/2008 7:11:47 PM
solid band. studio and live. damn stoked.

12/16/2008 7:34:45 PM
how can you hate on a band for being progressive? thats what bands do. they grow and produce their own sound over time... unless your TDWP LOLZ KILL YOURSELF

12/17/2008 1:02:44 PM
Impossible to do anything better than colours...wishing for the best though...fuck you haters

12/17/2008 2:49:25 PM
this record will wound like dream theater....

12/18/2008 1:47:45 AM
word. i'll probably download it. listen to it for a few weeks, then get rid of it.

12/18/2008 3:20:24 PM
best prog-metal band ever hands down.

12/18/2008 6:25:38 PM
The new album is only gonna have 3 songs. No worries each song is around 20 to 25 minutes long with plenty of creepy honky tonk breaks and seemingly endless jazz solos.

12/18/2008 8:15:46 PM
i thought colors was the only release of theirs that wasnt boring as fuck
