Between the Buried and MeNow, I have a feeling on what you're all going to say. But before you say it, go here and listen to these covers they did of some hard rock AND classic rock [ ] songs.
Queen - Bicycle Race http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4gOqhkkIZM&feature=related Pink Floyd - Us and Them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEBcAqjpitQ&feature=related Metallica - Blackened http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRNVhcQy1aM Pantera - Cemetery Gates http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlZK_9pFfdg&feature=related Sepultura - Territory http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWpzWdGlM_c&feature=related There are others but I won't list them all. So yeah, I think that album was one of the best cover albums I've listened to yet. Up there with Garage, INC. and Tribute to the Gods. I have respect for these guys now. |

I saw them open for Dream Theater, they were alright live, however a band called "3" played before them and I felt they were better. | ||
| Set Abominae |
Yes, I will say that 3 is a good band, probably better than BtBaM. | ||

My review, never really dug them at first.
Bicycle Race- New respect for the vocalist. He's no freddy but he knows how to sing. Everything else made the song bite....almost like All American Rejects or Yellowcard were playing the instruments. Almost a popish tone. Us and Them- Again this is interesting, early on this is very true to the original. The chorus is probably the weakest part of this song. Different is good to stamp it as this is their stamp on the song but thats the problem with floyd. DON'T LEAVE A STAMP! Blackened- Remember about me respecting the Vocalist......its gone now...XD. The growl just lacks balls. Cemetary Gates- Ok vocals for the melancholy style are actually good again. This is probably the only post Glamtera song I actually like. And the only time I could find Phil to be decent singer. Meloncholic vocals: cover is better Heavier stuff: Pantera is better, this band has a strange knack of not putting the aggression in when they need to. The screams at the end were horrible for the cover. Territory- Fail.....enuff said |

hm, the blackened cover is not so bad, accept of the vocals. But its not that bad.
The other covers are okay, but nothin' too special... |
