"It's only one and two tracks 'cause they don't play at the same time, so they can use" "I don't wanna think about you guys, no offense." "No." "Deuce in the video." "That's what they do, right?" "Yeah." "Mickey Mouse gloves." "Yeah." "I don't know, I guess it was your idea, so it's a terrible idea." "Well, you know, I think it looks better, classier, can I say that, classier?" "On stands?" "On stands." "Just a couple guitars." "It's just right here, it just look like," ""Oh, they wanna show off all their guitars."" "That's exactly what we wanna do." "Throw in a big-ass guitar boat on the top of an amp." "I don't really know what's so weird about it." "It's shock, it's shock, really bad." "It looks really shitty." "Fuck yourself off." "Looks really bad." "Yup." "I mean, that looks dope as fuck having that guitar there." "I think that's cool, so if you would rather me do that" "That's what I'm saying, that looks classier to me than" "Yeah, that's cool." "And if you wanna do more guitars," "I'm saying it's fine, I just--that" "I would've taken you more seriously if you weren't being so hilarious." "You know, if you were being a little less funny." "So, I got some stands, I think there's some more, too." "Like, that stand's shot, but, like, this one's nice." "You wanna just clean all this up or" "I'm trying to help you out, man." "Justin, what do you think as far as placement for my guitars?" "Should I have, like, one on either side of me 'cause I'm gonna have me playing one and have two backups." "I just want them to be shown." "Can you tie them to your amp?" "Yeah." "You can't wear all three?" "Do they make tool belts where you could hang guitars from?" "Like" "A holster?" "Here you go, here in this field and just get one to one of these animals" "I wanna invent something like that." "I would tie them up and just wrap it." "So, do it like this." "So call up some of your fans and tell 'em to..." "I need some of you guys to hold these sticks." "I'm just ready to move to my parents' basement, man." "It's too glamorous here." "Yeah." "We're gonna put" "I'm just gonna leave the light in there." "I'm gonna need..." "Should I grab some of these?" "Yes." "Too small?" "What, too small?" "Why don't you just set up a GoPro and just point it at that logo?" "I like how the light is hitting that blue guitar 'cause it's such a cool blue." "Yeah, but we're gonna have one here." "You think it'll light these up?" "It's gonna cross and go this way." "Cool." "First, let's just unplug these suckers, ravel that up or something." "No, it's right here, this is you." "What's that?" "That was the one that was plugged in one." "I do have one idea that might look weird, but" "Here we go!" "Now, let's just light up two guitars all over the room." "Right, that was good?" "Yeah, yeah." "Two band thing, like, that's kind of endearing to me, but I just don't like seeing it." "It's good because I'm gonna focus on that." "Speaking of shocks" "How much would you give me to jump into your drum set right now?" "Just do it." "The last song, yeah, I can do whatever I want." "No, we should do our" "You know, we always joke about ending on a wrong note?" "¶ Goodbye to every ¶¶" "Bur!" "Burrr!" "And I won't hit on the down beat." "It's gonna be off." "The best is cymbals without the kick drum." "Like" "That one jam that one day, that was awesome." "I was playing some stupid" "I was playing on-- I fucked up Paul." "Yeah, and then somebody played something with the keyboard that was really just" "Oh, you're talking about at practice?" "I can't remember when we did that." "I know the one you're talking about." "I just started playing something on keyboard and you just play, like, the worst beat ever." "Oh yeah, dude." "Let me just do something." "We'll be back, be here in a week." "All right, sounds good." "Meat eaters." "Jamie?" "What?" "You want some sort of weird animal on a biscuit or something?" "I'm good for now." "You guys?" ""Weird animal on a biscuit."" "¶" "Fucking bored." "Yeah, I know." "Just trying to stay awake." "Oh yeah, you took a crazy flight, right?" "Yeah, the red eye." "So, you've had no sleep?" "Maybe three hours." "Yeah, you need sleep." "I don't know if I really slept." "I took some Zzzquil on the plane." "Are you gonna make some more?" "Make him a fresh brew, man." "Fresh pots." "Fresh pots." "Fresh pots!" "(unintelligible)" "Thanks, Blake." "Both the controllers are in this box." "The brown box is filled with brown controllers." "Caffeine is bitter, like, the flavor of caffeine is bitter, so the more caffeine that's in a coffee..." "What they did is they found a way to pack it with caffeine, but mask the bitterness." "I just ordered a roaster." "I'm gonna start roasting my own beans at home." "Wow." "Yeah." "It's not here yet." "Yeah, I heard that you got what's his face from Lamb of God, he's like" "He's all into it, too." "That's awesome." "Dude, I'm so just jammed with, like, the whole... (electric screwdriver sound)" "Checkerboard of, like" "Like, sweet tea sitting on the corner" "Jamie, can I see that tape when you're done?" "I'm gonna try and tape this cable down, actually." "Thanks." "Stick 'em together, bud." "Here, you want me to hit it?" "Oh, yeah, if you don't mind." "Do you wanna tape it all the way or just, like, a couple ones along the way?" "Just really, like, right here, where I might" "You know, I'm probably not gonna move out of this fucking area." "Boom!" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "You think of anything else we can do with all this stuff or" "¶" "Ooo, is there still a fresh pot?" "Should I put a mic right here, so I can look you in the eyes?" "Yeah." "¶ The show must go on ¶¶" "Look at you." "You're a miracle worker, Andy." "Most times..." "I'm sorry, I'm gonna jump in front of your shot." "Yeah." "I don't have any contract." "I mean, I don't have, like, a contract signed or anything." "You pretty much owned one of them." "True." "Legally." "That's true." "Legally." "Shit, you know?" "Nice." "Nice!" "Nice, bro." "I hope they got that on camera." "It's gonna be bad, man." "It's almost like a video of shit that you'd never say otherwise." "Story of our lives, dude." "We have so much video footage, it could literally ruin our careers." "I mean, it could be the snake, it could be the fucking" "'Cause this looks like it should plug in" "Oh, yeah, those two need to be together." "Should this be plugged in together?" "Yeah, right?" "So, it's not the DI, it's the something over there." "I don't think the snake's plugged in." "How does this belong?" "Dude, I don't know." "Well, then how is my vocal working?" "I don't know." "I mean, it's just not plugged in." "¶" "That's not compressing it, it's just, like" "Hey, Blake, is my vocals coming through the compressor?" "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!" "That's just for your monitors." "It's probably better anyways" "Yeah, it's just for our ears, basically, so we can hear better." "¶" "Yeah, cool." "All microphones in, right?" "We haven't checked guitars and bass, but..." "Hold on, let me check the guitars." "¶" "Yeah, you sent me that." "That music's so crazy." "It freaks me out, man." "Even there's..." "Well, that group, Fantômas, with Patton or whatever, they do--he does, like, his version on, like, a fix theme and it's so, like" "It's all just, like, loud and jammy, laid back, but it's so, like, freaky, still." "¶" "¶" "One, two, one, two, ready, go." "¶" "¶" "¶" "Yeah." "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "It sounds awesome, I'll just have to bring it down a little." "Hey, Paul, can I hear your" "¶" "¶" "¶" "So, are we doin'... ¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "¶" "Just one shot in the DVD where we're all with our shirts off." "One frame." "That would be fucking hilarious." "Jamie, we're gonna need two more ice waters." "We gotta go with the sandals..." "You were awesome, how do I get to your" "¶" "This is the first record that we really went full out with a concept, making a big piece of music that flows into one another." "The easy thing to do would've been, like, another live DVD, like we did with Colors, but we really wanted to strip that element out of it." "To me, especially, it's a very studio album." "We've always been fans of DVDs where it's just the band." "You know, you don't have any other distractions." "It's just, like, if you wanna watch drums, there's drums." "If you wanna watch the guitar player, there's the guitar player." "Nowadays, with the internet, you can pretty much watch any of our shows, any time, any day and you know, we wanted to give the fans something that made them feel a little closer to us," "made it almost feel, like, they were at practice with us." "With the live setting, you know, we kind of beefed up our show this time around." "It's where we had a crazy program light show, video stuff." "I think there was something about wanting to kind of do the opposite of that, to really make it as organic as possible." "I mean, the interaction with the crowd is great, the energy is great." "When you play to a crowd and record it, it's awesome." "but in this setting, we're able to kind of strip all that out of it and focus on just the music." "I just thought it was, like, a cool idea, you know?" "You get to kind of see" "You're not blocked by any scrims or anything, you know?" "You can see, like, what gear we've playing and the guitars and kind of just like what it looks like when we're playing it, you know, what it looks like when we jam." "The recording, we didn't do a lot of" "Didn't really do much, any editing other than some noise stripping, things like that." "They were adamant about preserving the natural performance, you know?" "And there's some mess ups in there." "There's, like, channel change noises and things like that that, obviously, you wouldn't, you know, you normally wouldn't let it slide on a studio recording or whatever, but personally, and I think the band feels the same way," "you know, if you're gonna call it a live DVD, it needs to be a live DVD." "We just thought it was something new for us and you know, it's something that you don't really see a lot of metal bands do, so we thought it was a good opportunity to kind of push the envelope a little bit" "and try something different." "I think at this point, with our music and anything we do, we're just" "We're keeping ourselves motivated and trying new things and you know, sometimes, they can become very stressful and sometimes" "But they all, in the end, like, really work out and make us wanna push to do new things in the future." "¶" "From day one, we've never been the kind of band that before we start writing, we set out to do something in particular." "Like, you know, with every record, we're, like, "Let's get together and write and see what happens."" "We don't really have any go-to bag of tricks or anything like that." "We'll try and figure out, well, how can that, you know, blend into this and how can that go into that?" "And now we're dealing with a story and moods and settings." "It's kind of cool, it was a good way to, like, lay it out for us." "For The Parallax II, it was kind of fun doing that because since it was a concept record, it was a good way for us to use that as a tool to organize the record, musically." "I think just the older we got, you know, we became better players, we became better as a group of people." "It was just a natural transition in a way and as far as me writing lyrics," "I felt like just every record it was getting closer and closer to needing more storylines, rather than" "You know, back in the day, I would write personal lyrics, you know, where now, I try to incorporate a lot of personal emotion into a character or things I'm talking about because I enjoy," "like, having that connection with things I write." "I think just the music calls for a story." "¶" "It's something we've always talked about doing." "You know, we always incorporate that world into our music anyway and we feel like now is the time to do it." "If we're gonna have people come and play it, let's do it with this shoot." "You know, we have this beautiful studio that sounds amazing and everything and the idea of just running samples from a Pro Tools track just seemed like a total disservice to the process, so we wanted to have, you know," "people come in here and actually play the parts." "So, you know, the string quartet came in and played some stuff." "We had the tuba, we had a saxophone, clarinet, flute." "You know, all the stuff we do, nothing's sampled." "It's real drums, it's real guitars." "We don't record anything half speed or do any crazy editing or anything like that." "Like, we try and make it who we are, you know, make it as real as possible." "A lot of, you know, the charts I had written up for the record, and when it came time to do this, it just, it seemed like that just made sense." "That fit in with what our plan was, you know?" "Stripping it down, doing it more organic." "The parts are there and they're gonna be there, so why not have people play them?" "I never actually arranged, you know, the parts for a string quartet before, so, you know, learning the, you know, placing of the viola and tenor clef and just making sure that all the notes" "are written in the right octaves and this and that, you know, just 'cause of the range of the instruments." "That was a new challenge, but, you know, it was fun." "Having all the, you know, other musicians come in and stuff like that, I mean, that's kind of, like, a lifelong goal for anybody who's serious about playing music, but at the same time," "I feel like it's gonna be something really cool to own for someone who loves Between The Buried And Me." "¶" "Jamie, check, check, Jamie." "As soon as the camera's on, as soon as the audio's recording," "I get weird, I'm, like" "Jamie King, I think at this point, we just consider him part of the band." "We've always felt comfortable with him." "You don't feel like you're recording, you feel like you're hanging out." "You know, we've done things here and there without him and it just felt wrong, it's weird." "He's helped us evolve as a band." "As far as playing live and in the studio, he's kind of one of those guys that pushes us." "Jamie has the kind of inhuman quality of being able to know exactly what we're doing as he's hearing it or before he's heard it." "The Between The Buried and Me sound, to me, is The Between The Buried and Me." "My personal take on a great-sounding record is a record that's clean and clear and produced to an extent or whatever, but it's like an idealized translation of what the band does." "We always find our self coming back to Jamie because he really is the only guy we've worked with that gets what we're trying to do musically." "No matter how weird the material might be, he's into it." "Some of our stuff can be pretty extreme and off the wall, and I found that some people just don't understand it or they're just kind of, like, "Why," you know?" "I had the idea of adding some percussive element on top of a layer of drums and I think it's a little too much, it's too corky." "He's the guy that's, like, "Oh no, man, that's awesome." "In fact, you should do this on top of that and this on top of that," you know?" "It's, like, he's the guy that says," ""You do some crazy lead."" "He's, like, "Okay, cool, harmonize that." "Okay, harmonize that again."" "Parallax II was much like the other records." "You know, they came in, they had some new gear." "It was trial and error on all the tones and it's working great, you know?" "So, kinda, if it's not broke, don't fix it kind of thing." "And it's funny because, you know, those early records that we did with him were essentially recorded live," "I mean, in his parents' basement, you know, with, you know, microphone bleed, you know, guitars bleeding into drum mics and everything, so this situation is kind of almost like a throwback to that, you know?" "We're kind of doing the same thing, it's just in a nicer place and sounds better and all that stuff, and we're hopefully better players and everything, but it was kind of the same sort of thing," "so it's all--everything's kind of come full circle, I guess." "¶" "We'll be writing, hopefully, the rest of the year, later in the year and depending on how that goes, then we'll figure out when we're gonna record, but we try not to ever force too much" "just because we believe that that can cause a bad record." "So we want things to be very natural with us." "When the time comes, we'll get together and just kind of see what happens, you know?" "We never have a plan for anything, you know, as far as what it's gonna sound like." "We haven't had much time in between tours, this whole cycle for The Parallax, but pretty much any time I'm home," "I'm writing music, you know?" "What group that falls in, you know, is unknown, but I have heaps of new material and I'm sure we'll start sharing soon." "I think this band will always be a progressive band, for sure." "We just love way too many different styles of music to just stick to one genre, whether it be heavy or whatever, it's gonna be, you know, it'll still be Between The Buried And Me." "I think we'll probably maybe do another concept." "I don't know, it just feels right." "It was fun, you know, for me, it was something totally new." "I didn't know if I would like it or not and I actually enjoyed it, writing in a totally new way, but I'm personally ready to move beyond space and find something new to talk about," "so I don't have anything more to say." "The story's over, goodbye to everything." "¶" "¶"
