@@bakedandsteaked Hows it ignorant to think great musicians take the one thing that literally enhances your brain capacity and literally causes you to be smarter? It's pretty reasonable to me.
@@eggpod4567 It doesn't enhance shit. Just because you take shrooms and think YOU are enlightened doesn't mean anything. Are you writing music like this?

+AntiGravity yes, I have posted this video several times on social networks. I guess there are only 141.017 people who can really appreciate this fine band...
Agreed 100%. I've shown this band to some older folks that heard prog and metal/death metal come into the light. most were at a loss in regards to how they've managed to miss the last decade of this bands complete domination of everything they've attempted.
I wish I could somehow let the band know exactly how much each track is ingrained in my mind, what I experience when I listen to them and what sorts of feelings each one has provided me with- but that's practically impossible to describe/I can't contact them. Fucking thanks BTBAM, for all that you do.
One of the most unique sounding bands ever... This band has an ability to twist your mind...like a David Lynch's movie... very abstract... not every one's cup of tea maybe... one of a kind and enormously talented and technically skillfull band with a sound of their own.... BTBAM rocks!!!
Rishi Prabhu Tommy Rogers has expressed his fanship of David Lynch on a couple different occasions. It's reflected in some of the lyrics on Silent Circus and Alaska
Reason why i find them to never get old is because you can never really know all of the lyrics off by heart, even if youve listened to the song hundreds of times and studied the lyrics, at least thats what it is for me
it' seems to be about how our minds interpret reality and what is force fed to us. Obfuscation means to hide meaning through communication, to make what is communicated confusing.
this is the most unexplainable lack of views of any video on youtube, negating the amazing song, the video is just creepy and original in a way that it grabs ahold of you..awesome and under rated!!
I remember when I saw them when they were touring for this album, when they opened with this song I sang the cheeseburger version of the lyrics totally unintentionally.
I saw them live and they played The Great Misdirect front to back live, I never have and don’t believe I ever will see a greater musical performance. Just watching thins video now brings me to utter tears We will always be a part of the great misdirect Stepping in, and stepping out
WOW, this is a band that goes beyond expectations! after 3 years of knowning them, I still love them! this is the only band I can think of that can still give me fullblown goosebumps! BTBAM 4life!

yes, in a unit based context when measuring a solid object. a year is implied, but there non the less. but when describing a light year, your measuring distance and time, just together. i was not measuring how far bill hicks had traveled, i was referencing the measurement itself. which clearly includes time.
As with most of the screamo ,it over powers the music to some extent, (great puking scene) This is great metal,no 2 ways about it!! Killer video,wow factor 11
Wallace Bell "Screamo" is a sub-genre of metal. This is not Screamo, this is Progressive/ melodic death metal. I think the term you meant to say for this style of singing is Distorted vocals/ growls. Also since when did it take no talent? How about you try it for yourself ya ignorant douche.
See them live, your life will change. I even made a fan out of my brother, who notoriously hates anything to do with screaming vocals. Although, their live shows involve a substantially less amount of screaming than you'd expect.
I saw them live in November of last year with a couple of good friends, great show. The other 3 bands were exceptional as well, but BtBAM just goes out there and murders it.
@@zealobiron lucky you, i live in Chile and tomorrow is the first time for them in Latin América, i've been waiting almost 20 years. I hope Intronaut can come some day.
Victory Records didn’t know how lucky they were to have this band and BTBAM didn’t have a clue at how shitty Victory’s record deal was gonna be when they signed. They were trapped there for like 5 albums or so
No, it's not a measurement of time because it uses the time as a reference for the measurement of distance. The time (one year) is an already established concept. A light year is THE DISTANCE light travels in ONE YEAR. The year is just there to provide an already understood reference point. You're not measuring time, only distance. The time is already measured. It's one year.
"if you don’t believe drugs have done good things for us, do me a favor: go home tonight and take all your albums, all your tapes, and all your cd’s and burn em. Cause you know what? The musicians who’ve made all that great music that’s enhanced your lives throughout the years... Rrrrrrrrrrrrreal fucking high on drugs."
This masterpiece doesn't even have half a million views yet the latest "BS noise crap terd machine teen farting from it's mouth" gets a billion views, Dear God I really REALLY don't wanna live in this Earth
this may be thick of me, but its right in the title, your measuring distance as well as time. a light year cannot be 275 days, so the measurement of time is consistent but there non the less
I get what you're saying. They have different style, but they both fill the same spot when I want to listen to a specific kind of band/song/music/sound
The fact that they don't do drugs makes this music even more impressive.
They have to at least do shrooms. There's no freaking way.
@@eggpod4567 if I'm not wrong, they are straigh edge

Rishi Prabhu exactly!
i never put together the fact that I enjoy both david lynch and btbam. thank you for bridging that connection for me and please help me explain why!
@@TricksOnLick Just the abstract nature of both i guess. Both are very weird yet beautiful.
This was the first BTBAM song I ever listened, it blew my mind
A mind bend for the common folk…. For sure. I love this album so much. It’s what made me a fan for life
Yet another amazing BTBAM song. It's even better playing Mirrors before it.
Mirrors might be my favorite song from them, it's just perfect.
And even better than that letting the concept album play-through afterwards 🤘
This whole video plays out like a grisly episode of Twilight Zone, and it's pretty badass!
This song never gets old.
btbam. btbam never gets old. whenever I introduce new people to them I always add the disclaimer that I swing merrily from their ball bags.
Reason why i find them to never get old is because you can never really know all of the lyrics off by heart, even if youve listened to the song hundreds of times and studied the lyrics, at least thats what it is for me
Shayyyy what’s up
can confirm
Also can confirm
The part at 4:07 is one of my favorite BTBAM moments ever. So beautiful.
funny how this turned out to be I think my second favorite album. behind colors of course :)
This should easily have a million views for this amazing short film!!!
Personally..maybe my favorite album of theirs. It's album that got me into them.
it' seems to be about how our minds interpret reality and what is force fed to us. Obfuscation means to hide meaning through communication, to make what is communicated confusing.
5:13 : initiate one of my favorite musical moments of all time. of all time, son!
I looked up the lyrics to this song and it totally blew my mind!
This weed and this song got my mind floating elsewhere
Came here because of The What Cast. This was awesome.
The clowns dancing at 1:45!!!!!!!! LMFAO!
I love how he turns the volume up and the audio from the video gets louder
Light years beyond all of us = he's "far" ahead of us
this is the most unexplainable lack of views of any video on youtube, negating the amazing song, the video is just creepy and original in a way that it grabs ahold of you..awesome and under rated!!
Because the song is about occult subject matter that is controversial
This video could easily be used as the basis of a Call of Cthulhu scenario.
Such a Masterpiece of a song
I can't get over how unbelievably amazing this band is. I literally break every pencil at work to this band.
Very nice video quality
Best metal band in existence!
I remember when I saw them when they were touring for this album, when they opened with this song I sang the cheeseburger version of the lyrics totally unintentionally.

Stepping in, and stepping out
I also saw this back in 2009. Best concert of all time, it wasn't just music, it was worship
I don't give a fuck. This goddamn kicks ass. Excellent band.
The day I find a woman who is actually in to BTBAM is the day I've found me soulmate.
That young lady will have taste, great taste!
What is BTBAM?
adfbi Between The Buried And Me
Don’t threaten people 😆

7:58 chills everytime.
the greatest 9 min long song ever created!
2016, still watching, still listening, still loving the whole deal.
2017 as well jaja ;)
2018 still amazing
vargluc 2019!
I'm still here... 2021
2022 still amazing
the muther fucking genius bill hicks, who was light years beyond all of us
Love this band, been a fan since The Silent Circus. Saw them at the old Tremont in CLT.
5:15 and beyond is just some of the greatest musicianship to ever exist.
Yep, total eargasms at that part
That drum groove is one of the best I’ve ever heard - technically difficult, original and perfectly fitting. My all time favourite moment from BTBAM.
6:55 exactly, that always makes me smile.
GREAT MUSIC, GREAT VIDEO, GREAT IDEA! DESERVE MOREEEEE VIEWS!!!!DAMNIT!
This video is awesome!!!!!!
Probably the best music video I've ever seen :')
Why does this have less then 10 thousand views???
Its called talent.

From the simple idea of change blindness
Our minds are not as they seem
An entire existence revolving around what we can't acknowledge
From the simple idea of change blindness
Our minds are not as they seem, as they seem
A brain malfunction we'll never admit as defeat, defeat
A constant determination to find truth, to find truths, to find reason
To find truths, to find reason
To find reason, to find truths
To find comfort
An unspoken religion in being the all-dominant
All-dominant, all-dominant
This is what we call a brain
This is what we call a brain
This is what we call a brain
This is what we call a brain
A brain
This step will allow, allow the universe to run its course
We have a short ticket and a lot is in hiding
So let's take in what we can for now
Just like here on Earth, a notion we do comprehend
Hide what others can't understand
The universe is the biggest, biggest threat
Overachiever that commands attention
Brute force of hysterical, hysterical reasonings
There will always be a Marfa
Close one eye, step to the side
Close one eye, step to the side
As humans, we could never be content with knowing all
Yet we can't be content with the fact that our brains will never know
A mental surgery, a never-ending journey, a technological drawback
Pushing us further from our natural minds
There will always exist a Kryptos
Even things created by other humans should be considered
In the experiment of an entire species of understanding
A magician's pure joy
A mind bend for the common folk
Follow the straight line
(A full house watching what we can't see)
The ultimate deceiver
Close one eye, step to the side
Step to the side
We will always be part of the great misdirect
Stepping in, stepping out
We will always be part of the great misdirect
Mirrors and Obfuscation
I remember watching this video with my dad on Comcast when I was about 7 and I remember being terrified lol
Saw these guys perform with august burns red a few nights ago. Great bands. Never seen me or anyone ever mosh that hard in my life
We will always be a part of the great misdirect.

Wallace Bell Since screaming like this takes no talent, let's see you so a vocal cover of the song!
Really enjoyed the song.
I can see that. I love how this album bleeds into the Parallax albums..
Now i have to watch it again and actually listen to the music...
A true masterpiece of both music and film
Only 250k views after seven years? What a shame...!!!! This band doesnt deserve it

Same here. I listen to rap exclusively, and I hate screaming sht, but this is my favorite band, even more than any rap.
seriously! thatd be awsome i wish they did
Can't count how many times I've watched this now haha
Close one eye, step to the side.
Awesome song and video, this band is awesome in many ways!
Love this...someone watched Devil Doll a dew times
i didn't know they had any music videos :)
I can't believe how good this video is
YES. I WOULD WATCH THIS.

Based off of the Marfa lights phenomenon. I've seen the lights in Texas, they're amazing
Actually about the Prospect #nightowls
What is that?
+TheDeadEnemy the Great Misdirect acts as like a prologue to The Parallax series
Prospect and the Nightowls are both characters in the Parallax
It does not mean that if you are the last, that you are still not the best ;-)
This is music
So many great passages but when it kicks back in at 6:55 yuuuuuuuuuuuum
this is still very cool.
They're gods.
Lust in translation. Destroying forthcoming failures. Abandoning lost realizations. From a longing of outer perspective. No longer.

please people do yourself a favour and don't watch this on lsd it is terrifying but amazing and you can't stop but it's so scary
