Waretefai thinks his almighty judgment is devoid of subjectivity. As if there were only one way of looking at "technicality" or as if "tehnicality" was the only measure of good music. I wonder what btbam would think about you calling every fan of one of their albums, which I'm sure they're proud of, "faggots". If you think a band is only good when they're drowning in a pool of their own masturabatory "technicality", then you don't get what btbam's about....you just like "that one album".
@xover03 Listen to this undisputed fact. The great misdirect is more technical than colors. This cannot be argued due to technicality not being up for dispute. If you like colors better, then cool, you're a faggot, but don't walk around saying its better. The musicianship is inferior to the great misdirect. Also, tommy and the rest of the band Are greatly annoyed by fans like you. This is also fact.
LISTEN UP all of you colors loving faggots. The great misdirect is more technical than colors. This is not disputed nor can it be. The technical aspect of music cannot be argued. That said, everything ELSE is up to taste. If you like colors more then cool, you know, you're most likely a douche bag that hates all the other albums. But don't walk around saying its better! It's less technical. End of story
@yubbone Don't be so quick to judge. The guy that made this normally writes extremely complex music with his band between the buried and me. This project is an expression of emotion and collection of simple songs that would not work with his main band.
I love between the buried and me. This album shows 1/5 of the reason why that band is hand down the single greatest metal band of the 21st century. Thus far at least.
You never find such beauty like this anymore. They remind me of a modern day Led Zeppelin and Beatles with how they used beautiful lyrics and musical instrumentation, such as using orchestral instruments to accompany the song. I love how they harmonize the vocal parts too, which is what Beatles did.
Just over all beyond amazing musicians here. I am in love again.
@JustinSamland Well, excuse me Mr. Politically Correct. I was just expressing my musical appreciation for this person who I thought had a nice combination of The Beatles and Led Zeppelin, but never mind my two cents.
@Luriena lol whaaat? I was just letting you know that it's one person because you said musican(s).. I figured you didn't know that one person did it all. Didn't mean to offend or anything, my apologies.
@staplepancakes ikr man if they could just shut the fuck up and enjoy the music it'd be great but no they have to argue bcuz of their dominator male egos that need to get the last word in but it is what it is, fucks will be fucks :)
I still hear alot of BTBAM, mainly because of the voice. However, i like this solo project of his. It reminds me alot of Queen, and alot of 80's music overall. KUDOS
@SodomizingChildren Well, no. See, I think he just shows such high musicianship that Metal Blade wants to promote everything he does. This is probably the most abstract thing on Metal Blade, and I dig that
Thomas Giles is amazing, even more amazing live. As a Charlottian, I'm really glad that this amazing music scene that includes the likes of Giles is rising up in Charlotte.
listnweing to this, im just expecting to the electric guitars and blake richardson to come in and kick ass.. cause to me, i feel this could just as well be BTBAM behind tommy
@PASTAandMUSE Certain sections of BTBAM songs sound a bit like this, but there's rarely anything this subtle, peaceful, and introspective in BTBAM's music for long periods of time. Pulse is Tommy's first album that really has music like this ("Giles" was NOT like this lol) This entire album is really fucking great! Mirrors, Shevanel Take 2, and sections from Parallax: Hypersleep Dialogues are all worth checking out if you like this sound, though.
@MERTx123 I don't think tommy does the singing in shevanel take 2, pretty sure it's paul.
but i also have a suggestion to that other guy, swim to the moon's chorus are like this especially the 2nd last one but don't be one of those lameos that just skips to the clean singing parts in a btbam song
@theplaguewalks I've seen interviews that states Tommy does all the vocals in the band from the start atleast in recordings, Mark used to do all the clean vocals live...
@Mordain607 The fan base for BTBAM has all accepted the fact that colors was the best album ever created by man and can never be topped by any band, even BTBAM themselves. dont get me wrong, everything they write i wet myself over but colors was the most inspirational and most blissful album to ever be heard by my ears. but its still all good.
Ehh, to be honest, I have heard other people say TGM is better. But yeah, Colors is in general liked more. That doesn't automatically mean it's better though and it's not as if anyone can conclusively say which is better.
The Great Misdirect's songs were more varied and interesting. Colors' songs seem to bleed into each other sometimes and it just seems like it has more boring sections to me than the Great Misdirect.
@dawnedeclipse Thank you. Mordain607 probably didn't even listen to Colors before The Great Misdirect came out. It had to be his first taste of BTBAM if he says its better then Colors.
@Mordain607 The Parallax: Hypersleep Dialogues EP is better then The Great Misdirect. BTBAM out did themselves with Colors. I saw them on their 3rd stop on tour after Colors came out, they played it straight through, most amazing show I have ever been to.
Look man, you're definitely not going to convince me by just saying "nuh uh, Colors is bettter!" and you're probably not going to convince me at all, because I've listened to both and think TGM is better.
@Mordain607 opinions are like penises, we all have one and like it, but you dont have to go show it to other people cause they might not appreciate it as much.
Haha, that's a fucking great comparision. That means girls have no right to have an opinion? Brilliant!
On-topic though, I rate TGM higher than Colors, I love the variation in the tracks. But I know what you mean with the blend in Colors, but the album itself is more "grind" than TGM in my opinion (grind for BTBAM is still variation compared to other bands out there).
Oh and, this is by the way one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard. These wonderful musicians fill my ordinary boring life with things that are beyond beautiful, beyond originallity, beyond talent.
@Danelawz Well fucking said, i listen to this, btbam, and glass casket, and orbs almost everyday. They really have that kick. You know the bassist has a project coming up soon right? I am hopeful for that, and excited to listen to it. Cheesy and all, but these guys were life changing man.
All you people arguing about the label and genre and all that crap: who cares what you think, your opinion does not matter and you have nothing to prove.
This music is awesome, His appearance on Devin Townsend's next album should be awesome!!
@kouler it's people like you that make youtube suck balls. if other peoples' opinions don't matter why should yours? this comment is so retarded and ironic that i almost don't believe i just read it. you stating that other peoples' opinions don't matter is an opinion itself, meaning that you just stated nothing you said matters. you're a fool.
@666metalsucks666 I should have been more clear, I was referring to the arguments on this page over this non-metal music being on a metal record label, not the actual music itself. Objectively this is irrelevant to all of us listeners, the label is just a business. Furthermore, I never implied my opinion of this music mattered any more than anyone else's, but that aside there's nothing wrong with expressing opinion over the content of the music itself, but why do so about the business behind it?

That's the worst 14 dislikes I've come across on youtube. I can only theorize, that Helen Keller came across this video 14 times, and hates metalblade records?
ahhh shit wtf tommy you're the best :( i seriously love this song sooo fucking much i might cry... you also make me feel little as a fellow musician but give me something amazing to aim for musically
just stop with the negative comments. when hes not on btbam hes working on thomas giles so hes making more of a musical contribution to the world than any of the nay sayers out there i love this song btw
Tommy Rogers you talented fuck! BTBAM is my favorite band, I had no idea you were doing a solo project. Totally my inspiration in life and music, for someone to be apart of something as beautifully brutal as BTBAM and then also write music like this is awesome. Keep up the good work!
@Loz8900 based on a lot of the comments i've read, this is a pleasant surprise considering all the junk metal this label has been releasing lately. you know this guy's the lead singer of BTBAM right?
@9guitarkid4 Yes, but none of this still changes the fact that this isn't REMOTELY metal. The only comparable thing is the fact that the singer is in another band. THIS isn't metal.
@EvilSmurf76 You are STILL not getting it. THIS IS METAL BLADE. It's supposed to be all about METAL, not this weird stuff. THAT'S what I'm talking about.
@Loz8900 Maybe you should realize that some labels sign good music. Did you know that Metal Blade used to have the Goo Goo Dolls on it? Maybe if you have a problem you should take it up with the record label. Bitch.
@xmywifeisawhalex Here we go again with ANOTHER dumbass. READ WHAT I'VE SAID BEFORE YOU MAKE A DUMBASS REMARK. Now go away. Your fat bitch of a wife is calling you.
@Loz8900 Who the fuck cares, other than you? Doesn't discredit the music, just discredits the label (I guess). Instead of focusing on the label, focus on the music for what it is.
I can read just fine, thank you very much. Your argument is that this album, which has ittle to zero, no metal sound, was released on a metal music label (Metal Blade), saying it is misleading (the only good point you have, mind you), and then subjectively calling the album "junk" because it's not metal. I have you down pat.
So I'll say it again, because apparently (and ironically) you can't read: WHO THE FUCK CARES, OTHER THAN YOU?
@deadpisser88 There is something that you're taking out of context, AKA not reading properly. "calling the album "junk" because it's not metal." Please point at where I said that it's junk because it's not metal. " Metal Blade is all about METAL music, not this junk." is what I said. I like plenty of other music types outside of metal, so try to come up with something else next time.
Lmao OBVIOUSLY you do otherwise we wouldn't be having this convo, eh?
@Loz8900 Bullshit. You might like other music (*smirk*), but you still labeled this "junk", after stating that "Metal Blade is all about METAL music". I can see your opinion. Spare me the rebuttal. It's one thing to call it "junk", it's another to complain and bitch about it because it was on a metal label.
Nice try, but I don't care about whether something that's not metal is on a metal label (what you care about), I just happen to care about your idiotic little rants which deserve critique.
@deadpisser88 Now you are just taking things out of context and throwing them together. You should be a reporter my man.
But all in all, my opinion struck a nerve with you, provoking you to say something. If you didn't care at all, you would have just ignored it and continued on with what you do best.
@deadpisser88 Agree with you 100%, just because its not a BTBAM release doesnt mean it has to be metal. If Giles wants to make a new release let him, doesn't mean he has to change his lable and whole style. Thank you for standing up to jokers who think that they know whats what because theyve listened to a few metal songs over the years. #winning
@Loz8900 maybe your missing a big point. this is thomas giles rogers of metal blade records band between the buried and me. this is his solo effort. metal blade is the best label for supporting all artistic output of the musicians they sign.
@PrimalDirective YET AGAIN, another dumbass who just doesn't get it....I'm through talking to your fucking retards. I'd rather speak to someone with at least a high school reading level.
Listen here internet tough guy. I truly couldn't give two shits as to why you are mad that Metal Blade released this record. I'm more interested as to why you have to insult our intelligence.
Help me understand what I, and everyone who has contradicted you do not understand.
Why is it such a sin that MB released this wonderful album?
This isn't even mainstream music. What is your beef with it then?
@PrimalDirective I'm not even acting tough. You people SERIOUSLY don't know how to read. And I'm insulting your intelligence because you people CANNOT FUCKING READ WHAT I WRITE! You take everything out of context and don't even know what's going on.
Read what I wrote and you will know. Until then, I'm done with you.
I don't think it matters whether or not this is metal.
I mean... they signed Ghost and that isn't the kind of artist they usually sign and neither is Tommy. Whatever they're reason to sign him neither you nor I know.
So lets just drop this, maybe you should contact them and ask them directly...
@Loz8900 Just trolling you, don't worry about it. Everyone please shut up and let me enjoy my first time listening to this amazing motherfucker and his amazing motherfucking music.
@Cantgrowastache Why is it that I HAVE to like this? Jesus fucking christ man. You can't tell me what I have to like and not like. Grow the fuck up and realize this world doesn't revolve around your ideals.
@maybejustmaybe123 not trying to be a dick but this has nothing to do with BTBAM at all...yeah he is their vocalist but im pretty sure with this album he will want to be acknowledged as the signer from btbam
The members of BTBAM are obviously immortals, because they have lifetimes of talent built up.

That's the worst 14 dislikes I've come across on youtube. I can only theorize, that Helen Keller came across this video 14 times, and hates metalblade records?

Tommy Rogers you talented fuck! BTBAM is my favorite band, I had no idea you were doing a solo project. Totally my inspiration in life and music, for someone to be apart of something as beautifully brutal as BTBAM and then also write music like this is awesome. Keep up the good work!

@YingYangCrunk So it's misleading. Metal Blade is all about METAL music, not this junk.
Loz8900 1 year ago
@Loz8900 based on a lot of the comments i've read, this is a pleasant surprise considering all the junk metal this label has been releasing lately. you know this guy's the lead singer of BTBAM right?
9guitarkid4 1 year ago
@9guitarkid4 Yes, but none of this still changes the fact that this isn't REMOTELY metal. The only comparable thing is the fact that the singer is in another band. THIS isn't metal.

@Loz8900 Maybe you should realize that some labels sign good music. Did you know that Metal Blade used to have the Goo Goo Dolls on it? Maybe if you have a problem you should take it up with the record label. Bitch.

@Loz8900 Who the fuck cares, other than you? Doesn't discredit the music, just discredits the label (I guess). Instead of focusing on the label, focus on the music for what it is.

Loz8900 11 months ago
@Loz8900 ???
I can read just fine, thank you very much. Your argument is that this album, which has ittle to zero, no metal sound, was released on a metal music label (Metal Blade), saying it is misleading (the only good point you have, mind you), and then subjectively calling the album "junk" because it's not metal. I have you down pat.
So I'll say it again, because apparently (and ironically) you can't read: WHO THE FUCK CARES, OTHER THAN YOU?
deadpisser88 11 months ago
@deadpisser88 There is something that you're taking out of context, AKA not reading properly. "calling the album "junk" because it's not metal." Please point at where I said that it's junk because it's not metal. " Metal Blade is all about METAL music, not this junk." is what I said. I like plenty of other music types outside of metal, so try to come up with something else next time.
Lmao OBVIOUSLY you do otherwise we wouldn't be having this convo, eh?
Loz8900 11 months ago
@Loz8900 Bullshit. You might like other music (*smirk*), but you still labeled this "junk", after stating that "Metal Blade is all about METAL music". I can see your opinion. Spare me the rebuttal. It's one thing to call it "junk", it's another to complain and bitch about it because it was on a metal label.
Nice try, but I don't care about whether something that's not metal is on a metal label (what you care about), I just happen to care about your idiotic little rants which deserve critique.
deadpisser88 11 months ago
@deadpisser88 Now you are just taking things out of context and throwing them together. You should be a reporter my man.
But all in all, my opinion struck a nerve with you, provoking you to say something. If you didn't care at all, you would have just ignored it and continued on with what you do best.

deadpisser88 9 months ago
@deadpisser88 Agree with you 100%, just because its not a BTBAM release doesnt mean it has to be metal. If Giles wants to make a new release let him, doesn't mean he has to change his lable and whole style. Thank you for standing up to jokers who think that they know whats what because theyve listened to a few metal songs over the years. #winning

@Loz8900 maybe your missing a big point. this is thomas giles rogers of metal blade records band between the buried and me. this is his solo effort. metal blade is the best label for supporting all artistic output of the musicians they sign.

Listen here internet tough guy. I truly couldn't give two shits as to why you are mad that Metal Blade released this record. I'm more interested as to why you have to insult our intelligence.
Help me understand what I, and everyone who has contradicted you do not understand.
Why is it such a sin that MB released this wonderful album?
This isn't even mainstream music. What is your beef with it then?

@PrimalDirective I'm not even acting tough. You people SERIOUSLY don't know how to read. And I'm insulting your intelligence because you people CANNOT FUCKING READ WHAT I WRITE! You take everything out of context and don't even know what's going on.
Read what I wrote and you will know. Until then, I'm done with you.

@Loz8900
I don't think it matters whether or not this is metal.
I mean... they signed Ghost and that isn't the kind of artist they usually sign and neither is Tommy. Whatever they're reason to sign him neither you nor I know.
So lets just drop this, maybe you should contact them and ask them directly...
