Between The Buried And Me at The Beacham in Orlando, FL

With only a few stops left on The Parallax II Tour, Between The Buried And Me came to The Beacham in Orlando, FL. 

Between The Buried And Me‘s The Parallax II Tour brought along Thank You Scientist and Rivers of Nihil. The tour had 30 shows routing from coast to coast. The acts gave us a mix of genres from metalcore, death metal, and vibrant progressive rock. The room filled up fast from the long line outside of the venue with long-time followers of Between The Buried And Me.

The supporting act Rivers of Nihil was up first. They have a reputation for putting on quite the show, and let’s just say, they didn’t disappoint. They gave the sea of people inside the sold-out room high energy and played some of their biggest songs, or as you might say some fan favorites. The six-song setlist included songs from their albums Where Owls Know My Name, The Work, and their latest hit song “The Sub-Orbital Blues.” The audience had no problems starting circle mosh pits and crowd surfing as soon as Rivers of Nihil started their set. 

Next up was Thank You Scientist who gave everyone in the crowd a change of pace with their tireless energy and vibrant sound. The crowd was able to experience quite a mix of sounds including saxophone, violin, trumpet, drums, and guitar. However, the mix of sounds gave a beautiful mix and change of genres for our crowd to hear from metalcore to death metal. They played “Wrinkle,” “FXMLDR,” “Feed the Horses,” “Son of a Serpent,” “The Amateur Arsonist’s Handbook,” “Chromology,” “Mr. Invisible,” and “Terraformer.” Looking around The Beacham you saw people dancing and moving to the electric sound of the music, a much different feel from the circle pits.

Finally, once the stage lights went down and the big screens lit up, it was time for Between The Buried And Me. The metal fans in the audience started going crazy with chants and screams. Due to their many years of performing, the band knows how to keep the audience captivated with an epic light show and great crowd work. After playing a few songs, they jumped into thanking everyone who showed up giving the support acts a shoutout as well. 

The Parallax II: Future Sequence was performed in its entirety from beginning to end. When it came out in 2012, it became a memorable album and offered listeners an hour and 12 minutes of metal, techno, and death metal songs. The moshing was non-stop all night and to no surprise, you could hear the crowd chanting the lyrics right along with Between The Buried And Me.
