This time, the story follows the wanderings of an unidentified man, stuck in a coma, as he journeys through his past lives. Each song is its own episode in a modern day, sort of “The Twilight Zone”-esque fashion. The unidentified man enters each world and is offered a choice: stay, or move on to the next in search of something better, something more “perfect.”BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME vocalist/keyboardist Tommy Rogers spoke to Revolverabout “Coma Ecliptic” for the next issue of the magazine, which will be on newsstands everywhere March 31. Pick up the magazine for an exclusive first look at the album’s recording process and concept.

New music and pre-order bundles will be launched on April 3.
