Between The Buried And Me To Tour North America

Raleigh, North Carolina-based progressive metalcore quintet Between The Buried And Me will kick off a North American headlining tour on January 8, 2010 in Nashville, Tennessee. Support on the trek will come from Cynic, The Devin Townsend Project and Scale The Summit. Exact cities and dates will be announced soon.

Between The Buried And Me will play a record-release show for its new album, "The Great Misdirect", this Halloween at the Orange Peel in Asheville, North Carolina. The band will perform the entire new CD "Plus Some Oldies" at the show, which will feature additional appearances by Glass Casket featuring Between The Buried And Me drummer Blake Richardson and guitarist Dustie Waring), Braveyoung and Torchrunner (featuring Between The Buried And Me's merch/light guy Chuck Johnson).

Between The Buried And Me will embark on a U.S. tour in November with support from Veil Of Maya and Animals As Leaders. A list of tour dates can be found at this location.

"The Great Misdirect" was released on October 27 via Victory Records. A song from the CD, "Obfuscation", is available for streaming in the YouTube clip below. The nine-minute-and-fifteen-second track is a testament to the technically otherworldly original and proficient musicianship of BTBAM.

Thanks for the report to Blabbermouth.net.

[henkka_potku]

Cynic + Dev + BTBAM = I WANNA SEE THAT.

[LeaveNoAshes]

Yeah I have no clue. I'm definately going to this tour though. Hopefully they come to either Philly or Baltimore. I'm friends with Chris from Scale The Summit and went and saw them on tour with Dream Theater this past summer and it was awesom.

How many penii do you have then?
I gotta go either to Arizona or Colorado (I'm gunna try to avoid Texas) to see this show. I could use a trip to Denver. Or maybe I'll just fly in...

I'm picking The Great Misdirect ASAP.

[Viking_Swede666]

Am I the only one that finds something wrong with Cynic OPENING for BTBAM?

still, it's Cynic and Dev.

I must go.

[travd92]

[killeranndy]

probably just the picture of some random band they decided to put next to an article about BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME

wow

[TJM2482]

lol who cares about the opening acts, BTBAM have been one of the best metal bands in the last few years. I mean compare Colors and even the new album to the majority of recent metalcore/hardcore albums, no contest

[jpgilbert701]

Shit I wish I could see them with Animals As Leaders but I'm fine with Scale The Summit.

[llama_guitarist]

Jeez, I'd be fine with seeing them on either leg, but no Utah show... damn.

And apparently I should check out their opening bands? Everyone here seems pretty thrilled about them (I already like Animals as Leaders and Scale The Summit)

thats btbam

[Chapman1]

Please come to Australia!!!

[BlindSilence917]

I'll be in Chicago for this for sure! BTBAMAZING!!!!!

[Myshadow46_2]

I hope they bring a line-up as awesome as that over the pond. Not heard The Great Misdirect yet, if it surpasses Colors then I'm tempted to give those guys genius status.

[[x]Huffy[x]]

Cynic, Dev and BTBAM?

*Buys plane ticket to America*

[Lohnanmilitia]

Scale the Summit and Cynic! HELL YEAH!!! BTBAM is just icing on this very delicious cake!!!

[ZeGuitarist]

Checked.

[korbhag]

How could I possibly miss the Montreal show??

[Astyan]

I saw Cynic last year in Paris, when they were touring with Opeth. Pretty awesome band, even if they only played a few songs. Still haven't seen BTBAM though, but they're coming to Paris in February of next year so I'll most probably repair that soon. Their last album is beyond awesome, by the way.

[Jon777]

I just remembered that The Great Misdirect was released. MUST... LISTEN.

Gawd, this tour is gonna cause so many eargasms.

[Shinsen88]

YES!!! Finally I'm gonna get to see these guys!

[Tom-sawyer]

Support from Animals as Leaders?
FUCKING KICK ASS

[SMITH05]

That sir (or maddam) is Between the Buried and Me

[MetalBass 77]

BTBAM is a pretty good band, But why is Cynic opening for them?!?!?!!? Cynic are f***ing pioneers for progressive metal/death metal. Devin Townsend is an awesome musicians and a great progressive player as well! Frankly, its BS those guys are opening for BTBAM!!! Scale the summit is also a pretty cool band.
