This Song Is Called Selkies.

This is Between The Buried And Me. These musicians are AMAZING! They don't play wickedly fast metal or anything, they just play really well done progressive songs with hints of death metal and plenty of exploration into experimental metal styles. This song is called Selkies: The Endless Obsession and it's off of the album Alaska. It's amazing because if you were to play this live version next to the actual album cut, it would sound almost identical. They play with huge a passion for musicianship and technicality; something hard to come by these days. The second half of the song is filled harmonies and beautiful melodies; a style they mix very well with the more raw death metal they play oh so well. I know it's a long one and I have been blowing my load all over this introduction but try to watch/listen to the whole thing. You won't be sorry when Paul Waggoner performs one of the most emotion filled solos you might EVER hear. (And I back that with complete confidence!)

Enjoy!
