Between The Buried And Meare a progressive metal quintet from North Carolina, infusing a wide array of genres that include both soft rock and jazz. This is duly noted in their name choice, a section of lyrics from the Counting Crows’ song "Ghost Train," which proceed as follows: "Took the cannonball down to the ocean, Across the desert from the sea to shining sea, I rode a ladder that climbed across the nation, Fifty million feet of earth between the buried and me."

The band was founded in early 2000 by vocalist Tommy Giles Rogers, Jr. and guitarist Paul Waggoner: whose prior project was a melodic death metal/straight edge band Prayer for Cleansing. Since that time, the band has undergone many lineup changes. Currently, the band contains two members from fellow North Carolina band Glass Casket, Dustie Waring on guitar and Blake Richardson on drums. This has caused some question as to the future of Glass Casket, although both deny claims that Glass Casket will break up anytime soon, as the band's other members are currently busy with college and jobs.
They are avid animal rights enthusiasts, 3 of them vegan and 1 vegetarian.
They have released four full length albums to date: Between The Buried And Me (2002), The Silent Circus (2003), Alaska (2005),
Colors (2007) as well as a cover album, The anatomy of... (2006) which pays homage to a number of bands that have influenced them.
An instrumental version of Alaska also exists, containing 8 of the 11 tracks from the original version, unmentioned on their official web site.
