    BTBAM never fail to disappoint. A band who are constantly pushing the boundaries of modern music, "Voice Of Trespass" is certainly the highlight of the album.

    Automata II achieves three feats at once: it ranks as its own triumph while simultaneously recontextualizing--and elevating--Automata as a whole and strengthening Between the Buried and Me's place as the king of the genre.

    Automata II can be listened to on its own, but it holds much greater power when taken together with its predecessor. It is easily the more musically adventurous of the two recordings, making it an indispensable part of Between the Buried and Me's provocative catalog.

    The transition between blasting drums and metal riffs on "Blot" from Automata I into "The Proverbial Bellow" is surprisingly smooth without feeling like there is any disconnect between records. Overall, splitting up the release made it much easier to digest a full Between the Buried and Me album, which is never an easy task.
