Alaska is the third album by heavy metal band Between the Buried and Me. It was released on September 6, 2005 through Victory Records and is the first album to feature Dustie Waring on guitar, Dan Briggs on bass, and Blake Richardson on drums.
While Alaska did not sell as well as its predecessor The Silent Circus upon release, it still achieved high critical reviews and it includes some of the band’s most notable songs, such as its title track and "Selkies: The Endless Obsession". Another version of Alaska was released featuring instrumental versions of most of the songs (excluding tracks 3, 6, and 7).
