@@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? These guys got to this point because they practice hard and because they are well educated and practiced when it comes to writing music. Not because they took some mind altering substance that you hold on some pedestal. Get real.
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
+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.
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.
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
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!!
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.
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
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
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!
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.
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.
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.
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
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
Is this the Silent Circus within white walls? They drive through the deset of song at 2:37 and the silent flight parliament comes in at 6:27. I could go on I'm sure.
I'm impressed with this display of music & video. Somehow the relation between the 2, has got me puzzled, but nevertheless; AWESOME !! (too bad I lost this video a few times)
Apparently the actor who plays that boy is called "Tyler Smith". Does that means he's Tyler "Telle" Smith from The Word Alive? (STUPID/SILLY QUESTION, I KNOW)
Yes. You're right. It's a measure of the distance light can travel in one year. One light year, in terms of time, is just a year. The term "light year" is a measure of distance. Not time.
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
@@eggpod4567 such an ignorant take lmao

So sick when he turns it up on the radio, that was awesome!!!!
This was the first BTBAM song I ever listened, it blew my mind
"Being multi-dimensional doesn't make you immortal."
Good advice! :D

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.
The most underrated band in history.

+AntiGravity I was underrating them for years, mostly because of the name, but lately I've been starting to get into their stuff.
Well prog metal is an underrated genre

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 🤘
WE WILL ALWAYS BE PART OF THE GREAT MISDIRECT
AND ALSO WE WILL ALWAYS SWIM TO THE MOON
What would that be, elohim trapped in serpent flesh, in a host body system created by lucifer? Nah, some of us are leaving.
Still gives me goosebumps, this part
My Lord, the drums on this record..
The drums guys! The drums...
Yeah but did you hear the drums
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 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.
This should easily have a million views for this amazing short film!!!
A mind bend for the common folk…. For sure. I love this album so much. It’s what made me a fan for life
funny how this turned out to be I think my second favorite album. behind colors of course :)
This whole video plays out like a grisly episode of Twilight Zone, and it's pretty badass!
5:13 : initiate one of my favorite musical moments of all time. of all time, son!
Very nice video quality
We will always be a part of the great misdirect.
I looked up the lyrics to this song and it totally blew my mind!
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.
Best metal band in existence!
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
I can't get over how unbelievably amazing this band is. I literally break every pencil at work to this band.

This video is awesome!!!!!!
Light years beyond all of us = he's "far" ahead of us
This weed and this song got my mind floating elsewhere
The clowns dancing at 1:45!!!!!!!! LMFAO!
Such a Masterpiece of a song
Love this band, been a fan since The Silent Circus. Saw them at the old Tremont in CLT.
Probably the best music video I've ever seen :')
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
I also saw this back in 2009. Best concert of all time, it wasn't just music, it was worship
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
i didn't know they had any music videos :)
GREAT MUSIC, GREAT VIDEO, GREAT IDEA! DESERVE MOREEEEE VIEWS!!!!DAMNIT!
Its called talent.
I love how he turns the volume up and the audio from the video gets louder
Why does this have less then 10 thousand views???
This video could easily be used as the basis of a Call of Cthulhu scenario.
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
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!
Did anybody else turn up the volume before :18?
Came here because of The What Cast. This was awesome.
I don't give a fuck. This goddamn kicks ass. Excellent band.
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.
seriously! thatd be awsome i wish they did
@Ileikdrumzz I've never heard that before. And now I can't unhear it!
Really enjoyed the song.
So many great passages but when it kicks back in at 6:55 yuuuuuuuuuuuum
I remember watching this video with my dad on Comcast when I was about 7 and I remember being terrified lol
7:58 chills everytime.
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
This isn't screamo...
T
Screamo involves emo music. This is progressive death metal. Lots of sub genres in metal. Common mistake

Wallace Bell Since screaming like this takes no talent, let's see you so a vocal cover of the song!
the greatest 9 min long song ever created!
A true masterpiece of both music and film
That Intro Is Too Damn Awesome!!!
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
Awesome song and video, this band is awesome in many ways!
Very interesting song
Amazing band, hope to see them live again.
Love this...someone watched Devil Doll a dew times
the muther fucking genius bill hicks, who was light years beyond all of us
I am highly considering it.
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.
YES. I WOULD WATCH THIS.
this is still very cool.
This is music
6:55 exactly, that always makes me smile.
FROM THE SIMPLE IDEA WUV CHEESEBURGERS!
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 😆
@@adfbi bruh moment
Endless creativity
8:40
A lovely haunting, nostalgia

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...
epic epic epic...and overloaded....however...AWESOME JOB :)
@daiselol it wasn't tool that was referenced, it was Bill Hicks
7:54 Total DT/JP influence. Each band wears their heart on a sleeve, but it is fun to hear influence nontheless.
What is an JP?
What a video
I can't believe how good this video is
Is this the Silent Circus within white walls? They drive through the deset of song at 2:37 and the silent flight parliament comes in at 6:27. I could go on I'm sure.
Sir Bomb this song does give me vibes of their older stuff with colors as well.
Two person moshpit at 6:55
It's all about the drumming
I absolutely adore this song
LOVE this song!
That's fucking awesome. This video reminds me old Laurent Bouttonant clips for Mylène Farmer.
Close one eye, step to the side.
I migliori di tutti
I'm impressed with this display of music & video. Somehow the relation between the 2, has got me puzzled, but nevertheless; AWESOME !! (too bad I lost this video a few times)
They're gods.
i didn't know there was a video for this song.. They need an epic video for Swim To The Moon.
3:45 goosebumps
Apparently the actor who plays that boy is called "Tyler Smith". Does that means he's Tyler "Telle" Smith from The Word Alive? (STUPID/SILLY QUESTION, I KNOW)
Only 250k views after seven years? What a shame...!!!! This band doesnt deserve it
It does not mean that if you are the last, that you are still not the best ;-)
i like it so much !
Yes. You're right. It's a measure of the distance light can travel in one year. One light year, in terms of time, is just a year. The term "light year" is a measure of distance. Not time.
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
