between the buried and me

Between the Buried and Me will be releasing their new studio release titled Coma Ecliptic on July 7, 2015 via Metal Blade Records.

According to an official statement:

“Once again, the band has returned with an ambitious concept album. This time, the story follows the wanderings of an unidentified man, stuck in a coma, as he journeys through his past lives. Each song is its own episode in a modern day, sort of The Twilight Zone-esque fashion. The unidentified man enters each world and is offered a choice: stay, or move on to the next in search of something better, something more “perfect.””
