History edit

Buried Inside was formed in 1997, influenced by early metalcore and hardcore punk bands Acme, One Eyed God Prophecy, Drift, and Union of Uranus.[1] Tweedy and Martin had previously played together in the mathcore band Kenobi.[2]

Their sound included distorted vocals, creatively timed drumming, heavy use of octave double stops (which created a melodic effect), and occasional sampling of gloomy film dialogue or instruments such as the cello.[3] After releasing two independent albums, in 2005 they signed to Relapse Records and put out their "concept" album, Chronoclast.[4][3] That year the band toured North America with Eye-HateGod and Byzantine.[5]

In 2009 they released their fourth album, Spoils of Failure.[6][7] They played their final show on November 13, 2010.
