You’re either for or against what Between the Buried and Me has done to grind metal. The form is no longer dictated by continuously forked-rhythm mandates which Napalm Death and Morbid Angel gorged themselves upon for years. Between the Buried and Me’s Alaska opened up the possibility of new horizons amidst a brute ugly din of aggression and ridiculous bpms. Their 2007 masterpiece Colors proved grind metal had previously-unthinkable space to accommodate for brainy mathematics, blurring prog and outside-the-box genre shenanigans ala Mr. Bungle.
Fact of the matter, Between the Buried and Me is one of the metal revival’s most important groups along with Mastodon, Isis, Opeth and Dillinger Escape Plan. This is a band looking to not only break molds, but they seek a yin and yan battleground between refinement and chicanery. Almost everything Between the Buried and Me has sought to dabble with in the past »
