Buried Alive took the torch lit by vocaliser Scott Vogel's former bands and ran with it good force, delivery their gruelling metalcore to a national audience via never-ending touring, one hot full-length record album, and a posthumous release of later-era demos. Similar to musical genre standard-bearers Hatebreed, Buried Alive's medicine was stomping, plod, and heavy. It often picked up the tread a fleck to get the thrash fossa moving and always reinforced by Vogel's commanding vocal presence and kinda bleak lyrical topics. Buried Alive formed in Buffalo afterward the dissolution of Vogel's former band, Despair, wHO had released records via Trustkill and Initial during their inadequate simply fertile career. Vogel, with a penis of Snapcase, had besides been a parting of Slugfest, so getting Buried Alive noticed rapidly in the hardcore scene was a no-brainer in one case they got moving with a two-song demonstration and smattering of live performances. Formed in 1998, the band -- whose terminal lineup besides included guitarists Matt Roberts and Scott Sprigg, bassist Joe Orlando, and drummer Kevin Corcoran -- was quickly snatched up by Chicago's Victory imprint. They released a 7" single with them, Six Month Face, followed by a full-length album, The Death of Your Perfect World. Following a sizable amount of time on the road with bands like Skarhead and Madball, Buried Alive decided to promise it a day concisely after completing demos for a bit album, which were by and by compiled and released by Victory as Last Rites in 2000.
