About this album

Victory Records (2007) Released: 18 Sep 2007 8 tracks (64:08)
Colors is the fourth studio album by the band Between the Buried and Me, released on September 18, 2007. Described by the band as “adult contemporary progressive death metal”, the album runs together as a 64-minute epic split up into 8 tracks. In its first week it sold approximately 12,600 copies, reaching 57th on the Billboard 200—the first time the band cracked the top 100 on that list.

Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater recently named Colors his album of the year, whilst Ultimate-Guitar.com also named it Album of the Year in their annual This Year in Metal.

On the inside of the CD case, along the spine there is a message reading “The cityscape burns brighter by the hour”, and alongside the outer edge on the inside it says “Rebuild”. Both messages quote lines from “Informal Gluttony.”

The May issue of Alternative Press as well as the 2008 Victory Records catalogue have confirmed that ‘Colors Live DVD’ will be released 10/14.

    Safe, filtered, non-threatening, padded-cornered, thoughtless radio.

    @DDevilized, that's exactly right. That's the way albums are meant to be heard. If people whine about songs being too long then they should just go back to listening to the radio. Safe, filtered, non-threatening, padded-cornered, thoughtless radio.

    This is an absolute masterpiece of an Album. Must be listened to in its entirety to be fully appreciated.

    i always listen to Colors in its entirety. the song titles are just like chapters in a book. they're just headlines.

    well i agree that 16 minutes may be a bit too long (or it's just because i don't really like swim to the moon), but usually i don't care about song lenghts if the music is alright.

    Wish this was a one time only experimental phase of the band. Now everything they do has to be 9 to 16 minutes fucking long. I already like Opeth and Dream Theater, now these guys too?

    Colors live in its entirety was one of the best shows ever, let alone this year.
