Thanks to the brilliance of averagegatsby and Rick Reilly, I also nominate this to be Royals Review's theme song. The reasons are infinite, but the most obvious should be that if you don't like this song, you may have to be punted off a bridge ala Baxter in Anchorman. And if this isn't your thing, then click this for something completely different.

I may be a noob in sabermetric terms...

but by god I do my damndest to bring random humor, and Im really good at stealing things and claiming them as my own, only to reveal where I got the idea later.

And Ive actually seen Between the Burried and Me live, not proud of it.

Booo!

If there was any loud, abrasive, technically brilliant prog-metal band I’d have play at my funeral, it would be BTBAM. And I attempt random humor as well, as my sabermetric knowledge is little to none. Oh and I do the stealing thing too, but not all the time I tell you!

fair enough...

But Im a big fan of melodies, so I prefer when a band like As I lay dying occasionally throws in a sung word.

As I Lay Dying is pretty good

A lot of their songs sound the same, but it’s still good. The only singing and screaming band I enjoy a ton that sings more than screams is Protest the Hero. As for BTBAM, if you keep watching the video in that link up there, it actually may be the only song in which more singing is done than growling. The only problem is, I really don’t like the guy’s singing voice too much.
