There isn’t a show like Between the Buried and Me, the technically woven power of their music galvanized the air at the crocodile as they brought their brilliant act in support of their new album –The Blue Nowhere– to Seattle.
The Blue Nowhere has quickly become one of my all-time favorite albums, and I have had it on constant rotation since it came out. The Blue Nowhere delivers on what we have come to expect from a BTBAM album, all-around virtuosity, but with a subtle and playful new style. The album stars with the banger –Things We Tell Ourselves in the Dark– The combination of the sound of the keyboard, samples on the drums as well as the playfulness of the guitar, reminiscent of 80s pop music, gives a certain “genesisesque” vibe to the track and sets the tone of the rest of the album. Track after track, The Blue Nowhere takes us into a journey of brutality, silliness and technicality. The album delivers on something familiar, but with a sick new twist, love it!
There is something to be said about the efficiency of BTBAM, they will deliver as much music as possible in their set, there is no small talk, no jokes, just a continuous stream of pure energy and awesomeness! If you are lucky to be in the path of their tour, they are DEFINITELY A MUST!!
