Buried Alive was a hardcore band that emerged from the vibrant music scene of Buffalo, New York in the late 1990s. The band was fronted by vocalist Scott Vogel, who would later become known for his work with Terror, a significant name in the hardcore genre. Buried Alive carved out a niche for themselves with their aggressive sound and unrelenting energy, quickly establishing a reputation for powerful and intense live performances.

Their discography, though concise, left an indelible mark on the hardcore scene. Their debut EP, "Six Month Face," laid the groundwork for their sound, but it was with the release of "Death Of Your Perfect World" in 1999 that Buried Alive truly cemented their place in hardcore lore. The album consisted of tracks that delved into personal and societal struggles, delivered with a ferocity that matched the intensity of their on-stage presence. Despite their relatively short initial run, ending in 2000, the impact of tracks like "Death Will Find You," "I Killing I," and "Last Rites" resonates to this day. Their music, characterized by pummeling breakdowns and vitriolic vocals, has influenced countless bands within the hardcore community even after their brief reformation in the late 2010s for live shows and new music releases that renewed their presence in the scene.
