    disappointingly, coma ecliptic confirmed my fears that btbam would get softer and less interesting. things change, bands evolve, but it's really a shame that such an amazing band would make such a completely forgettable album.

    Just meh. A lot of filler in a convulated story telling. Kind let us wishing for some more direct and CLEAR sound. I'm not too kind on this left field boring ass predictabilty.

    Ultimately, Between the Buried & Me, despite employing many tropes and influences, come off sounding like no one but themselves.

    While the noticeable shift away from death metal may discourage some, Coma Ecliptic succeeds in pushing Between the Buried and Me's creativity in a new direction, avoiding a simple rehash of their winning formula.

    Coma Ecliptic is an exquisite masterpiece. As with most opaque works, it takes many listens to fully appreciate everything here.
