A spaceman. That's what they say I am.

Discovered BTBAM in prison lol. A corrections officer was walking by my cell in ad seg and he got a phone call on his cell. Some kickass shredding was his ringtone, so I asked him what it was. The dude handed me his phone so I could browse his playlist and it was all BTBAM. When I got out one of the first things I did after getting a job was to buy Alaska, which was the song on his ringtone.

One of my favorite albums by them. Actually of the best albums of all time but I actually really really enjoy colors 2. A lot. I love all their stuff seen them many times but not since 2014 with periphery

BRUH right in the middle of a breakdown the fucking domino's ad came in with a door bell sound right on rhythm, I was dying laughing 😂

These guys deserve to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their lyrical content is profound; the vocals a perfect mix of intimidating, despairing, and beautiful; the music a balance of savagery and blissful melancholy. They are so underrated it is a crime.

8:51 this isn't even a particularly spectacular transition, but I don't know why, it always makes me emotional. BTBAM has a way to compose such incredibly moving chord progressions

HOW COME I DIND'T KNOW THEM BEFORE WHERE HAVE I BEEN

This album still blows my mind til this day. Such a classic.

I remember very vividly being on the bus back home from high school around 5 PM with the setting sun in front me, blasting this song on my MP3 player thingy, very special feeling it gave me. This album made that ride seem much shorter than it was for that whole year. Exactly 10 years ago already, damn!

My album was Blessings of a Blackened Sky by The Sorrow. I still have an MP3 player, too (though I like to use my PSP Go for that, too)!!

Everywhere I look they are there... what is everyone doing? Going to a home? To a place that makes us feel warm... A place that grants us a smile. Seems like a very simple idea, but not hardly figured out. (Looking everywhere) I just see faces. Faces staring blank as they go on with the routine. This routine. Nothing new... its time to go through with this. A spaceman. That's what they say I am. Nothing but a spaceman... always pushing it all away. Trying to get to that one place I call home. The journey begins... forcing a new life with the unexplained... A creeping rush that surrounds me. Floating... floating away. Always pushing it all away. Trying to get to that one place I call home. My own planet... I allowed this wish... Unexpected... not knowing why. Wonder why I question it now? I'm my own planet... Not many can experience this sensation. Loneliness is creeping out... or in, however you think of it. But it sure is surrounding me. Maybe all the complaining is an accurance of boredom. I suppose it's too late. I am floating farther and farther away. I did love, I did laugh, I did live. (Now I'm my own planet) A spaceman. They say I am... a spaceman. Planets everywhere... my own destiny... I'm floating towards the sun. The sun of nothing. Floating towards the sun, The sun of nothing. I have become the sun of nothing. Nothing is here. Memories are not clear. Floating to the sun... farther away. I can't believe that's what it has come to... I never really had it all that bad. I just looked around and never thought about the blank stares. (Blank stairs) They were looking into something much worse than what I thought I was. Selfishness is a very sticky quality of this species. Looking around... I don't see any faces... Yes I am lonely. It's to be expected. I'll sleep now. (Dream waves)

The best song off of the best album from the best band of all time.

I prefer white walls but this is a banger too

Spent the week listening to colors 2 and it forced me to go back to this gem of an album. Still as mindmelting as ever….fuck man when you get in a between the buried mood there’s literally no other band that will suffice. Nothing comparable to these behemoths!

Heard this song randomly on Liquid Metal and my first thought was ‘that’s too intense for me.’ Then the spaceman part kept leaping in my thoughts. Now they are one of my favorite bands currently making new music.

BTBAM is my favorite forever. Can’t wait for the new album

This album was my gateway drug into metal. Talk about being kicked into the deep end with no floaties. Still hasn’t been topped imo. It contains multitudes

Ordered the remaster on vinyl, the second I’ve ever purchased. Sun of Nothing sounds wonderful so my hopes are high for the rest of the album; very happy to hear the bass lines stand out so much more. Thank you for your art. You’ll be remembered for this.

as I expected, not my favorite, but that's purly because I personally don't really enjoy growled vocals, absolutely everything else about this album is wonderful, I guess growled vocals will just never be my thing, apart from igorrr's growls, which I can somehow listen to over and over again. wish I could enjoy this kind of singing, because I love the overall sound, but I guess it's just not my thing, still gonna listen to the whole album tho, as there's always room for discovery, and the instrumentation is wonderful, ooh was that jazz? ok, this is deffinetly my favorite song so far.

I hated this album initially because of the growls, but now it's one of my favorites of all time, once I got used to the growls the band as a whole clicked with me in a profound way.
