#126 - Between the Buried and Me - Alaska
Description
Between the Buried and Me was born from a desire for unrestricted, musical expression. Guitarist Paul Waggoner and vocalist Tommy Giles started the band to escape the creative constraints of their respective projects and explore new sonic territory.
Following their initial two releases, the band underwent a crucial transformation. In the months leading up to recording their third album, they finalized the iconic lineup that endured for nearly two decades.
While the integration of three new members (Dan Briggs, Dustie Waring, and Blake Richardson) could have easily led to creative tension, the opposite occurred. The collaboration of these five equally talented musicians unlocked an expansive new dimension for BTBAM, allowing them to fuse progressive elements with extreme metal into a wholly unique sound. This foundational dynamic paved the way for all the landmark releases to follow.
Please join us in celebrating Between the Buried and Me and the album that defined their path, Alaska!
