"6. (Shevanel Take 2)

My head will not rest on this pillow
As its gripped in my arms tonight
Like reality, too tight
If a dream could last forever
I would hold you here
Time need not freeze, I need not fear
This world inside
Is a world I have longed to find

And I will not be afraid to love
I will not be afraid to lose
What I once deprived myself of

My tear drops have salt-stained this pillow
As its loosened from my weakend cluth
Like the sun's light: too much
But there's a hope today
That I'll find a way
To make my dream reality

Sometimes I run and sometimes I crawl
Sometimes I fly and sometimes I fall
But this dream of mine won't change at all"

posting anonymously is almost gay as these BTBAM lyrics.

Au Pair is gay. I looked at your faggoty-ass pictures with your slacker haircuts and tight metalcore jeans. Gay.

BTBAM is metalcore, sorry i dont like your favorite band:
(a) white belt wearing sick mosher.
(b) emerson prog nerd.
(c) member of the band between the buried and me?

My tear drops have salt-stained this pillow
cry me a river.

getting back to the subject, they just put the metallica cover on their myspace

BTBAM is so hit-and-miss with me. I like parts of their songs but sometimes the assault of gayness from the non-tech parts makes it unlistenable.

i really dont like this band

yea, there's not enough bull's eye Les Pauls involved

i liked their first album, but everything else i heard was gay.

i think i might be one of the only people who prefers their second album to everything else

and instead there are to many whiney emo parts and tight pants.

nick said:...or get the fuck out of the canoe.

Cecchini said:


waahw-waaahhw-waaaaahww

im not a big fan of this metallica cover. the guitar sounds like they used the neck pickup.

and these blast beats sound weak

and the vocals are awful

no one does james hetfield like you moe

hahaha, and you're basing this on what??
oh god, i was drunk wasnt i

haha, yea buddy

then yes, my Hefield impression cannot be touched

nick said:


Between The Buried And Me is not metalcore, moron.

umm...yeah they are....sure they've got their own sound but its definitly a metalcore sound

hahaha kids kids, im sorry i insulted the PROGRESSIVE GRINDING BRUTALITY that is between the buried and me.

Between the Buried and Me is terrible. I'm not surprised at all that they did a Metallica cover.

That's seriously the dumbest collection of cover songs ever. It sounds like a set list from a 9th grade talent show. It's missing a Gilbert OSullivan cover.

i really dont like these guys. i have a similar idea for a cover cd, but i wont pick stupid songs. i mean covering Cemetary Gates? come on, there are way better Pantera songs to cover. that is probably my least favorite Pantera song. that didnt even take any thought, it looks like any regular hour at WAAF.

I'm a big fan of their first record. But Silent Circus has too many gay parts, and Alaska has too many nerd parts. And cover albums are lame.

I do agree I don't agree with this move i still like the band. I never said they were brOOtal. I should stated they are not metalcore. I would just say progressive metal.

Oops, I meant I don't agree.

i think this band thinks they are musical virtuosos but they really aren't. they are decent. red chord is not very good musically at all. i'll take the B.T. Bam as they are called over red chord.

I just turned on WUML and they are playing the "salt stained pillow" part. heh, it is wicked gay, but I'm still singing along.
ps: I'm sitting in the parking lot of marks show place.

should i go see BTBAM or what?

Since when did diversity in music become "gay"? A band doesn't have to be all tech or all or brutal or whatever you want ALL the time to be good, a little bit of variance is a great way to keep your whole album from sounding like a long set of noise and blast beats. And just out of curiosity did anyone even take the time to think that they may have picked those songs because of personal influence, not because they are the best or most popular by that band? Just wondering because last time I checked the point of playing music wasn't to do what everyone else wants, but what makes you have fun..at least that's why I play.

glass casket = yay
BTBAM = Nay

Mik said:

It's the lack of diversity that's gay. The fact that they sound like and have the same lyrics as 438547546543265409546 other generic metalcore bands is what is gay.

I like Between the Buried and Me. But cover albums are just a way of cashing in on your popularity while you still can. Pretty lame.

as much as this band bores me, i have to give them props for covering earth crisis.

blind melon had more songs than 'no rain?'

niccolai said:


i cant help but agree...
the new BTBAM = meh
the new Glass Casket = pretty good (better than the last cd)

i've also aquired the BTBAM cover cd and its fucking terrible

tbone_r nli said:

Nah, I think they just had like 56 different names for it.

actually most of their other stuff sounded drastically different (and better)

I don't like this band either.

i really liked the silent circus, i just have no desire to hear any of these songs covered except for bicycle race...that has to be interesting.

the vocals on this cover cd are SO uninspired...you figure if they covered songs they all loved that they'd sound like the band gave a crap
