Between The Buried And Me

This one may come out of left field for some people. But any chance I get to talk about one of my favorite bands, I’m taking it.

For those that haven’t heard of Between The Buried And Me, here’s a quick rundown of them. They are a progressive-metal band that formed in 2000 and are from Raleigh. The band currently consists of Tommy Giles Rodgers Jr. on lead vocals and keyboards, Paul Waggoner on lead guitar and backing vocals, Dan Briggs on bass and keyboards, Blake Richardson on drums, and Dustie Waring on rhythm/lead guitar.

They have been signed with Metal Blade Records since 2011; before that, they were signed to Victory Records. Between both labels, they have released 9 albums with the most recent ones, Automata I and Automata II, coming out in March and July 2018. The track Condemned to the Gallows from Part 1 scored a Grammy nomination for best heavy metal performance at the 2019 Grammy Awards.

The band has not been shy about acknowledging their North Carolina roots in the past. They have released merchandise based on that of the Carolina Panthers and Charlotte Hornets in the past. They also played to a sold out crowd of hometown fans at the 2018 North Carolina State Fair as well. So coming out and sounding the siren for the Hurricanes wouldn’t be a problem for them if they were available to do it. It would just be if the Hurricanes wanted to step out of the box a bit and bring them in.

Now onto one of the greatest ever.
