you know as epically fun as it is to mosh and stage dive and all, with a band like BTBAM if i ever saw them live I couldn't help but just sit there in awe at their talent.
What makes it so awesome is that it's not his falsetto it's his real voice, and the vibratto kicks ass. I can hit the note I just use my falsetto and I can hit the Vibrato like 10 percent of the time... out of a hundred.. ha..
dainelovesyou,I swear to god you listen to the best music.First I saw you post ahleuchatistas,then converge,then ultra dolphins,and they're fucking amazing quality.I'm so subscribing.
"..Slowly grows, weeds turn into.. smiling trance. Never mentioned....."
I love this song.... one of my most favorite songs ever. It has a great message in the lyrics, and the song itself is.... so beautiful. I love it Live. I wish I can see it real time....
Good music to you Tommy, and the rest of the band. Bless his soul.. bless BtBaM's soul. A great great band!!!!!!
this song is so well played live. i love the quiet parts too. they make the whole crowd chill out and it pisses off the kids who only want to kick people.
hhahha your right about peaples who wnat kick kids and i have to say , before i listen to btbam i didnt really emo/classic part of each band now i love every style because of them!
cliche' metal suck i hate peaples who think that you play metal you need long hair or w/e, metal is just a genre of music its not because you listen to country you need the cowboy boots?O.o
and theses dudes don't jump off everywhere like popular band because nobody cares,music is not about jumping or w/e is about talent,skills,passion, love of it.
i agree with everything below this comment 100% i was gonna write it myself but the whole image thing and not jumping around like assholes says it all lol thanks that was easy, i wanna find a video of just blake playing the drums in this song in the beginning i love the symbol work i was hoping thered be one, theres one for prequel to the sequel
if you're a between the buried and me fan, they better be at least in your top 5 favorite bands. the only people i know that don't love them are people who can't stand screaming. but seriously, this is the most talented versatile group i think the world may ever know.
aside from their music, the thing I personally love about them is how they dont really care about how they look. They dont have super long hair or wear all black, they just go out there and put on a good show!! I dunno they dont do the cliche' metal look and i think its cool.
i agree. another thing i love is that they dont jump up and down while on stage, looking like retards. the singer does because he's feeling the music, while everyone else is focusing on executing the music they spent so much time creating. you dont have to go crazy to put on an excellent live show. between the buried and me is a wonderful example. god i love this band so much.
personally i think this was the best song on Alaksa. but thats just my opinion, it's jsut just a well constructed and beautiful song. these guys are so good its insane.
As for him hitting C#, that is impressive. On that note, of singers hitting really high tones for their range.. Matt Shadows (yes, Avenged Sevenfold.. try to ignore the band he is in if you hate them). Powerfully (chest tone) hits a melody ranging from G to Eb for almost an entire minute in I Won't See You Tonight Part 1.. E fucking b.
In every video I've seen on Youtube the High C# (second to highest note) is significantly flat. I don't know if his voice can take it anymore. It's a shame, he has a beautiful voice. And he champions that falsetto note.
I don't touch MTV. And the people in this band look more like they would be on it, whereas if you had the slightest idea about me or my appearance you wouldn't be able to bring yourself to call me superficial... Plus T shirts and Jeans is my everyday apparel. So back off bro no need to be animous
A peace sign is trendy? So what isn't trendy? metal horns? I'd say that a peace sign especially at a part as beautiful as that is the only sign that could be used.
And to call someone as incredibly incredibly intelligent and wacky as Tommy trendy, is so redundant that it's funny. If you read his lyrics then you would be so embarrassed, so do some research about this band before calling them trendy.
Colors + Alaska + The Silent Circus = my entire life.
Their music is timeless. I had no idea this cd was going to be the way it was when it came out. Metal and melodies. And colors is even better. Blake is so badass. They all are.
I really like btbam alot, and I dont want to sellout or whatever, but honestly I was wincing during the whole time tommy was clean singing. His notes were flat like hell, and if he took some singing lessons that would be gone and he could get a stronger, better voice.
He's not a nigga.... that should go as an insult to him, but I do agree with you that he always hits the high notes.
This is an amazing song and I'm incredibly happy that you were able to get it at such amazing quality, nice job, BTBAM is amazing, and Tommy will forever be one of my influences in screaming.
You gotta ask yourself how far in to the set that song was, though. His voice could have been worn out by that point. He had probably been growling for a pretty long song, hell, he does it in practically every song.
"the early love seems to have become jaded. never expecting this, glance towards the mirror, imagination towards the stars. desire for my one and only true love"
yeah, thats just barking into the microphone, let me tell u...wut a douche.
wow. find a brain, somewhere, i dont care where, borrow someone's, then speak. people like u who say "all i hear is rah rah rah" are beyond ignorant. dont come on a band as great as BTBAM and type a comment on ur opinion. its not needed. listen to fall out boy u cool critic u.
This is one of my favorites by them!
