When we last heard from legendary prog-metallers Between the Buried and Me, it was way back on March 9 of 201...8. So fourteen weeks ago. Wow, the world seems super different now. Feels like it's been years. Anyway, three months ago, the touring stalwarts released Automata I, their eighth album. Mick handled the Töp's review, and he liked it, closing with the line "BTBAM hasn't faltered yet." I agree with his assessment. So now, Between the Buried and me is preparing to launch Automata II (out July 13th via Sumerian), which is their second eighth studio album (we'll get to that). The first half of Automata was welcomed by BTBAM diehards; will the second get the same treatment, or will the band finally falter?
