Album Description
Between The Buried & Me release their 2008 album, Colors- Live which includes a bonus DVD of one of the finest exhibitions of true performance art. The fantastic voyage that Between The Buried & Me charted at the creation of their groundbreaking record Colors was both cathartic, magical and life-affirming for the band. Becoming one solid unit of artists and recording their definitive record in such a cohesive fashion is a very rare feat. Colors has since become one of the most celebrated records in the metal and rock spectrums for 2008.

We are Between the Buried and Me, and this is Colors. October 15, 2008

Full Disclosure: I happen to think that BTBAM's Colors is one of the best, if not THE best metal albums ever recorded. Seriously. If you like the studio album, you will be blown away by the precision with which the music is performed live. Simply put, Colors is a masterpiece-and the band performs it to perfection on this live recording, without breaks, (as a previous reviewer noted) just as the album was recorded. On top of that, the quality of the recording is phenomenal. In this reviewer's opinion, Colors_Live thoroughly captures the BTBAM experience.

I just finished watching the Live DVD of this set (I have not listened to the audio only cd yet). I'll keep this short. If you want to see BTBAM in a professionally shot, great looking and sounding (though not in Dolby or DTS format unfortunately) live performance than this is it. I knew they were good and awesomely talented, but watching them pull off the entire Colors album with perfection, WITHOUT ANY BREAKS!!!, is amazing to see and hear. This is definately a must have because it's rare to see a group of people this talented play together. The only gripe I have, and this is small and many live concert dvds are guilty of this, and that is whenever there is a solo fill or some music section by a particular musician like say some really cool drum fill that'd you'd love to see Blake play, they will keep the camera on the vocalist or be panning across the stage. Maybe it's just because I'm a musician too but I like to see the player up close when they're doing something out of the ordinary. But don't get me wrong, they get up close on the guitar necks a lot so you can watch them blaze thru solos, and you get to see plenty of drums getting torn up, and the bass of course sounds great. Viridian sound beautiful. Anywho, I said I'd keep it short and I didn't Just BUY IT!
An incredible live performance of a fantastic album October 15, 2008

I find Colors to be one of the best albums of the past several years, and Between the Buried and Me to be an incredibly talented group. I've seen them live five times now including when they toured and played the whole Colors album as they do on this Cd/Dvd Combo and I must say that was one of the best shows I'd ever seen and this DVD/CD brings back the fondest of memories. Seeing this album performed whole is the way it is meant to be seen as each song flows seamlessly into the next and that the band manages to play it without breaks is a sublime achievement. If you liked the studio album even a bit, then this CD/DVD will blow you away and show BTBAM to be a virtuoso mix of performers and players.
The CD/DVD combo is also a great value. For the price of a regular CD, you get an audio copy of the performance as well as a double set DVD featuring some of their absolutely best pre-Color songs. The DVD has some pretty cool bonus features as well, as it features the full visual interpretation version of the album which runs the full length of the Colors CD as well as interpretations written by the band and fans. This is a really worthwhile product and heartily recommended if you want some incredibly technical progressive metal.

"We are Between The Buried & Me and this is Colors!"
From there, the journey begins. The new Colors Live DVD/CD from Between The Buried & Me is a must see. Performing the Colors album in its entirety, this band shows why they are in a class all their own. Included is a CD of the Colors set and the DVD offers a sampling of some excellent songs from previous records.
They tire not in their seamless transition from song to song in the Colors set and barely pause long enough to say hello and thank the crowd. If you are a fan of Colors and have never seen them, you will be in disbelief at how tightly they can pull it off live. If you are unfamiliar with this band and their work, please introduce yourself to musical athleticism. Power, finesse, majesty, and complete originality are what BTB&M encompass. I won't lie, they're brutal enough to scare casual listeners off, but for those willing to traverse their way through the maze of complex riffage, this album is a treat like no other. I've seen them play this entire set live, but I still can't believe how good this DVD is!

The best album of the last 10 years performed to perfection live.
I was fortunate enough to see them perform on the Colors tour, and now I can relive that amazing experience at will.
