I thought BTBAM fans had transcended the need for “Best Ofs…”. This is just a blight. All the flow is fucked up. Viridian needs to flow into White Walls…Shevanel Take 2 needs that jarring transition to Ad A Dglgmut.
You just can’t chop up albums that flow like BTBAM’s do. This was the biggest “Fuck you! See you later” that Victory could have given to these guys.
Let’s be honest, if you like BTBAM, you generally like most all they have offered.
met BTBAM’s singer last night at the glassjaw show. super nice dude. maybe some kid in wal-mart will buy this best of and intro a sweet band into their life while simultaneously putting coin in the pocket of a worthy band with a nice lead singer.
Yea Tommy Rogers is a cool cat. No doubts. If he’s going to a GJ show then I think that confirms it.
lucky for me I am from the BTBAM state. yeah!
I had a dream where I read this blog and I was like “FUCK BTBAM, They suck, Disturbed and Godsmack rule, how can 10,000 people be wrong, and I’m cooler then you cause I have a broader taste in music cuase I listen to Lady Gaga and Eminem, blah blah blah” Then I woke up.
.
I think that’s what Hell is like.
On the BTBAM, Cephalic carnage 03′ tour me and, a friend bought a 24 pack of PBR my friend lived like three blocks from the venue. Well we walked past the venue because the liqure store was a cross the street. On the way back my friend house ended up drinking beers with Cephalic carnage. Then we walked past Tommy Rodgers he gave a look of shock we had that much beer it was just classic.
good story monkey. Victory making one last cash grab at one of the only bands that was worth something on that label.
And no ‘Aspirations.’
C’mon Victory, figure it out.
I totally agree with ProtestedGyro… you can’t take these songs out of their context in the album and expect them to be the same. However, I do endorse the release of a new EP.
Victory has been known to do bands pretty dirty… A band like BTBAM still holds prestige… It kinda makes me sick to see someone try to take that away from them just to make some $ (or get PAID)…
lmao @ that tracklist… they put Prequel to the Sequel and Viridian on there, but break them up with Foam Born? Alaska and All Bodies are on the disk, but with Selkies between them? Shevanel and Ad A Dglmt, but not side-by-side? Lmao, did Victory actually listen to this records before assembling this tracklist? wtf?
victory sure does know how to squeeze every last drop of blood from a stone, don’t they? “aspirations” probably isn’t included because victory doesn’t own BTBAM’s first album.

@ProstateGspot: I agree with everything you said, except of saying “most”, I’d say all.
Hah!…..I see what you did there.
This is exactly what Norma Jean just dealt with… do the bands see any royalties on these releases? Or do the labels own the copyright?
