Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In 2003, Between the Buried and Me released their second studio album, entitled "The ______ Circus". Can you complete this album title?

Answer: Silent

Although Between the Buried and Me have gone through a number of lineup changes since "The Silent Circus", there is a consensus that this album was a solid indicator of the band's focus and direction, and a sign of things to come.
2. Between the Buried and Me's second music video came from the song "Mordecai" of the album "The Silent Circus". The somewhat bizarre and seemingly low grade music video features the escapades of which unusual characters?

Answer: Barbie and Ken dolls

The rest of the choices would certainly be bizarre, but the Ken doll protagonist was an unusual enough choice for a heavy metal video. Especially when he was shown traversing a city very much resembling the cardboard cut-out handiwork of small children.
3. Can you identify which song from the album "The Silent Circus" incorporates these lyrics using clean vocals? "It all makes sense...It all makes sense...we're capable of beauty. Through sounds which make one cringe. The dogs only hear us now."

Answer: Ad A Dglgmut

This song title has puzzled Between the Buried and Me fans for years. It is alleged the words have no real meaning, as one might expect from five consecutive consonants which seem unpronounceable. As for the song itself, anyone who's listened to it might only have the aforementioned lyrics to remember, as the rest are very difficult (I'd say impossible) to decipher.
4. Between the Buried and Me released a studio album in 2005 featuring an eponymous track (of the same name). This album title and song both share a name with which U.S. state?

Answer: Alaska

The reason for the name "Alaska" has been said by a band member to be due to Alaska's uniqueness, but this kind of explanation only seems to leave Between the Buried and Me fans scratching their heads more. One theory notes the similarity between the long, wintry darkness of the state Alaska and some lyrics off the album which suggest the effect of such conditions on the mind.
5. Which country is Between the Buried and Me from?

Answer: United States

They formed in 2002 in Raleigh, North Carolina.
6. This song from the album "The Silent Circus" may be of average length itself, but it exceeds thirteen minutes as a whole because of a prolonged period of silence followed by a hidden track. Which song contains the hidden track?

Answer: The Need For Repetition

It is not well known, but the hidden track is called "The Man Land" and contains some less than impressive lyrics as well as dirty sailor potty-mouthing. It starts up about 11 minutes, 15 seconds into the song.
7. This album released in 2007 includes the song "Prequel to the Sequel" which you can download for "Rock Band" on Xbox Live. The band describes it as "a 65 minute opus of non stop pummeling beautiful music" apparently in the style of "new wave polka grunge." Which album is it?

Answer: Colors

Perhaps on a more serious note, they've described it as being "adult contemporary progressive death metal."
8. Can you name the Between the Buried and Me song in which these lyrics appear? "Feeling so dirty, sexed up by human eyes. An "artist" washed over, pulled under. The moment is set, let's make magic."

Answer: Camilla Rhodes

Presumably named after the Camilla Rhodes character of the film "Mulholland Drive", this song paints a picture of a music industry focused on objectifying artists in order to sell their work with sex rather than talent.
9. Tommy Rogers of Between the Buried and Me can be heard singing on August Burns Red's 2009 album "Constellations", as part of a song that shares its name with a Southeast Asian country comprised of many islands with names like Java and Sumatra. Which song can this be?

Answer: Indonesia

Geography and metal. Call me crazy, but I say they were born to be together!

Indonesia is the only country matching this description. The rest are countries in the Eastern Hemisphere, and not songs by August Burns Red.
10. Can you complete this silly song name from the album "Colors"? The song is entitled "_____ of the Sky".

Answer: Ants

This song starts with "My teeth taste funny today" and soon turns into something about zombies. I won't even pretend to be able to analyze this.
