Between the Buried and Me‘s DVD and Blu-Ray will be released on the 28 of April via Metal Blade Records, in association with Good Fight Entertainment. The video will be of the band’s live concert at The Observatory North Park in San Diego, CA in October of 2016. The concert features the band playing Coma Ecliptic in its entirety, which they have been doing since its release in July of 2015. The video was directed by Vince Edwards and edited by Black Faucette and Justin Reich with the audio mixed by Jamie King. The audio recordings took place at the Basement Recording NC, with live GoPro camera placement by Black Richards, the band’s drummer. Between the Buried and Me‘s bassist, Dan Briggs explains the film.
“The genesis of the ‘Coma Ecliptic’ filming,” Briggs says, “was based around capturing the look and feel of the show our lighting director Chris Hill produced for the full album set. It’s such an important record for us and our progression as a band and the visual representation captures the moods of our tragic tale so well. It’s the perfect way to wrap up the last two years we’ve been living with this album day in and day out!”
