Background information über 'The Blue Nowhere'

Progressive metal visionaries Between the Buried and Me return with their most immersive and eclectic record yet—"The Blue Nowhere", their first on InsideOutMusic. Mixing uncharted musical detours with their distinctive aggressive identity, the band creates a conceptual world unlike anything in their incredible catalog, inviting listeners to experience the journey on their own terms. Though the story takes place in a hotel called The Blue Nowhere, don't expect haunted corridors or shadowy figures behind every door—it's more of a feeling, those moments when you feel alone in the world and use that solitude to reflect on the human experience.

Trying something new is not unusual for the group, who once again find ways to expand their musical palette while maintaining the band's core sound. The album opener "Things We Tell Ourselves in the Dark" sets the tone with INXS & Duran Duran-inspired textures, even incorporating 90125-era Yes, filtered through BTBAM's signature chaos. Meanwhile, "Absent Thereafter" is a quintessential BTBAM track—layered, intense, and unrelentingly dynamic, this 10+ minute opus delivers everything a BTBAM fan could want and more. Between the Buried and Me remain allergic to stagnation, and "The Blue Nowhere" proves their creative drive is stronger than ever.

For fans of:
Dream Theater, Opeth, The Mars Volta, Haken, Mastodon, and Tool
