Oh man, BTBAM are amazing. I've seen them a couple of times, most recently opening for Children of Bodom. They know how to make some amazingly complex and beautiful music. Their later albums aren't as accessible, but are pure genius. I don't listen to them that much these days, but still have the deepest respect for this band.

BTBAM is a really good band. I watched them play live when Alaska just came out and it was just awesome. I hope they continue putting out solid releases.

^^ Not sure of his reason, but the first time I saw them was back in 2004 or 2005, and it was horrible - they played too many slow songs and just seemed uninterested. However, I saw them again about a year later, and they were awesome.

I used to have a real hatred of this band for no real reason aside from my thinking that they are a metalcore band... I don't deny their talent and my opinion of them has softened somewhat, but I still don't enjoy their music. I won't deny their talent; they are very competent musicans. They just bore me, though, and some elements of their music just grate on my nerves until I can't stand to listen to them anymore, mainly the breakdowns and the metalcore screaming. I think if they'd drop the metalcore thing I'd give them another chance, but as of now I just can't stand their sound.

Just heard them for the first time headlining a concert with Animals as Leaders and Tesseract. A friend asked me to go and I'd never heard them before. Not bad, there were some good melodies, guitar work and the drums and base I thought stood out very well. I'm just not a huge fan of the metalcore screams, but I thought the breakdowns they used in some songs were excellent and really got my head banging. Not a band I can listen to outside a live setting, but a very enjoyable concert nonetheless.

Written by Guest on 09.12.2011 at 15:49 Well they are quite a decent band, but they don't have "hooks" I do like their stuff, but they aren't a band that you say " Hey I want to listen to BTBAM" its more of a browsing through my music and I see the band name and think " hmmm haven't heard them in a while, I should" but then you think some more and decide against it

Written by Spirit Molecule on 09.12.2011 at 17:00 Hmm, I think Colors and The Great Misdirect have a decent amount of hooks, and I also think that this a band worth exploring and digging into as there a lot going on, and also the ideas are quite original.

Well I never said they were bad or anything, its just that this band doesn't do it for me. I've listened to Alaska, the great misirect, colours and the silent circus. I'm actually listening to colours right now after all this talk about them. I still think they are a decent band, but for some reason it doesn't do anything for me.

After how many years of listening to metal, I have finally heard this band. For some reason I had sadly misjudged them before even hearing any. I listened to The Great Misdirect several times today and could not get enough. God. Damn. Talk about innovative and interesting! I love how organic all of the different elements came together; the album was full of variety but it never, ever felt forced. I'm thrilled to get to see them in a few months on the Summer Slaughter tour. Damn that will be amazing.

Written by Susan on 16.05.2012 at 19:09 You should definitely check out Converge if you haven't. Really really good band. Axe To Fall, Jane Doe and You Fail Me are the ones I've heard and they are all excellent  They can be quite abrassive soemtimes though but I love it. You can start with Axe To Fall as it seems like it's one of the easiest to get into and covers a lot of their sound.

Written by Susan on 16.05.2012 at 06:05 I'm so glad to know this! They are awesome Have you listened to their other albums? Their latest EP is also nice, although generally it wasn't very well accepted, I loved it though.

Written by Guest on 19.05.2012 at 17:12 I thought it was a step forward in terms of the way they are exploring melodies now. I feel however, that their heavier side might be going a bit sterile, but I hope they can turn that around on the new album.

Written by BloodTears on 19.05.2012 at 19:44 I felt that ever since Colors tbh. Don't get me wrong, Colors and The Great Misdirect are both great albums (and I haven't fully heard the EP so I dunno about that) but I got introduced to this band via the self titled which was a kind of angry album but also built a lot on the soft/harsh dynamics (and most of their soft sections are very well done like the ones in More Of Myself To Kill and Aspirations) and it feels like that anger is missing from the harsh parts from their newest stuff. TGM is probably my second favourite BTBAM album though even with the fact that I'd like their old songwriting ways back, if that makes any sense  .

Written by Uldreth on 19.05.2012 at 20:02 That makes sense, yes. I understand where you are coming from. I thought TGM was strong on their heavier side though, that album is almost perfect for me, so I don't have many complaints there. I agree that their soft sections are really well done, that was what attracted me to their music in the first place. And then I fell in love with their growls and extreme metal elements. I don't think they will return to their 'old songwriting ways' because they seem to be the kind of band that really focuses more on the future and new approaches, but I might be wrong
