BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME have not made a name for themselves through playing it safe. Pushing the envelope of heavy music with each successive release, they have continually evolved in thrilling new directions while maintaining the honesty and integrity that has connected with so many listeners. With „The Parallax II: The Future Sequence“, their first concept album, the North Carolone, USA, based unit have delivered their most complex, ambitious and accomplished work to date. "We're certainly not the average metal band - we write what we want to write, and we've never really tried to fit in anywhere," states guitarist Paul Waggoner. "With this record we held nothing back. We were excited to experiment and see where it took us, and working with a concept was a really interesting new challenge." The concept was first introduced to the band's fans with 2011's The Parallax: Hypersleep Dialogues EP, which established the narrative's two characters, Prospect I and Prospect II, the story commencing with the events of Parallax II. Separated by millions of light years, the two men exist in ignorance of the other yet are intrinsically connected by a shared soul, which ultimately brings them together.

The Hypersleep Dialogues EP was a huge success and made the progressive metal fan  get ready for something new. The massive established fan base is hungy for new material. And you know what it is like, more will follow!
