by Robert Pasbani Here at Metal Injection, seeing as though we are a video site we come across a helluva lot of music videos, most of which are just a band performing in a warehouse with some fancy lighting. It always impresses me when a band takes the time to create awesome visuals to match the [...]
by Frank Godla Metal Injection undeniably watches a crap load of music videos each year, I suppose that is part of our job for better or worse. Luckily, every now and then I come across a music video that not only allows insight to the bands demeanor, but is an absolute pleasurable viewing experience for one [...]
When I asked Matt Tyson of Goes Cube and Ear Farm fame to submit a list for this year's Best of '09 feature I knew I'd be getting something great back. Now I knew he'd save his own album lists for his blog, but what he submitted to me is freakin' awesome! Matt gave us a rundown of his 10-favorite metal albums from 2009. Now some of these are standards and belong on every list - namely, Mastodon and Isis - but some of these were totally new [...]
We've chosen a winner for our massive Between the Buried and Me Great Misdirect contest! That winner is Tim Meyer of Newfane, New York (which is way up above Buffalo, for anyone wondering), and he'll receive the Spector bass, bass gear, and all of the awesome BTBAM stuff you see listed above. After the jump, [...]
1. This band is amazing. 2. "Obfuscation" is taking prog-metal in a new direction. 3. I'm liking this video's set up. 4. Whoa, what just happened to that girl? 5. Clowns will never stop being creepy. 6. I can't wait to see this band with CYNIC and the DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT. 7. So far, this video has avoided every metal [...]
Video: Between The Buried And Me "Obfuscation"
They say life is timing and that timing is mostly luck. Sinatra would add that luck is rarely a lady, and truly she's been a monster bitch since the release of new records by Devin Townsend and Between The Buried And Me. Both clear contenders for top 2009 album honors, Addicted and The Great Misdirect [...]
Last week one of you accused us of being a "bunch of negative miserable fucks." I can only assume that this person had never been to this site before, and was somehow unaware that it's called "MetalSucks." Still, this was probably the best worst week ever, because: Devin Townsend took over our site for a day! We finally [...]
Ever heard that Behemoth have breaks built into their set so they can run off stage and do some corpse paint touch-ups? To be fair, I'm not sure if the person who told me that was being honest or just joshin' me, but it makes sense - the band definitely runs off stage from time [...]
Between the Buried and Me bassist Dan Briggs currently holds the record for MetalSucks interviews at a healthy 3... which averages out to once a year in the history of this site. It's no coincidence that we always end up talking to Dan over the rest of his equally talented band mates; the dude's extremely [...]
by Van Damned and The WZA'd (ATX)Hey there, Austinites. We know we already posted the bulk of this already, but we figured you might need the reminder. There is, after all, a lot to choose from. So here are your show picks for Thursday-Monday. Have a good time!Virginia's crossover throwbacks Municipal Waste bring their "Waste the World" tour to Red 7 this Thursday.

Under Siege: A weekly recap of the noteworthy riffage from the wicked world of metal and hardcore... this week: Slayer, Byzantine, Gama Bomb, Devin Townsend, Toxic Holocaust, the Black Dahlia Murder & more!
Tomorrow is Halloween. This is great news, because it means that come Sunday (or Monday) people will finally fucking stop talking about Halloween. So sick of it already. When did I become so curmudgeonly? I'm gonna make a hell of an old man. Here's what went down this week: Danzig drummer Chuck Biscuits died. Oh wait, [...]
By Ben Apatoff Call it "Deeper Colors." Approximately two years after BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME leapt into headliner status on Colors, they've plunged further into each direction they took on that album. The Great Misdirect raises the Colors bar in every way that BTBAM previously did in following up Alaska, showcasing a grasp of melody, [...]
As promised, here are the dates for that whole Between the Buried and Me/Cynic/The Devin Townsend Project/Scale the Summit North American Orgasm Tour 2010, which I'm sure actually has a much more "professional" name, even though calling it the "Orgasm Tour" would really just be truth in advertising. ANYWAY, the dates. Okay, here we go. Get [...]
Tonight, we have two very special guests on the Metal Injection Livecast. Seeing as both The Red Chord and Between the Buried and Me had new albums released we secured a member of each band to call into the show for a few minutes. Joining us from the Red Chord will be bassist Greg Weeks [...]
Wow! MetalSucks has alerted me to the fact that BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME announced on their MySpace page that in January of 2010 they will be out on the road with CYNIC, THE DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT and SCALE THE SUMMIT. Holy shit... if they need a title for the tour, I got one: Sploogefest. [...]
Our inboxes are aflutter with fans celebrating today's release of The Great Misdirect. Mostly they range in tone anywhere from "jizz" to "splooge" but never anything less. Here's a sample, sent in by MS reader Patrick Dorsey: Hello, Axl and Vince. Longtime reader. First-time e-mailer. After hearing The Great Misdirect, I wanted to shout it from [...]
Between the Buried and Me's new opus The Great Misdirect is finally out today! To celebrate, we're holding a contest offering you the chance to win all of the awesome shit you see listed above. That sweet bass alone is worth the time it's gonna take you to enter the contest, plus you get all [...]
