Best Of is a greatest hits compilation album by the American progressive metal band Between the Buried and Me. The three-disc CD/DVD set was released by Victory Records on March 29, 2011.[1] Best Of was also released shortly after the announcement of Between the Buried and Me's signing to Metal Blade Records.[2] The album's packaging features several hidden images that can be revealed by using a decoder.[3]

Jason Lymangrover of Allmusic gave the album three and a half out of five stars, and stated, "Boasting two discs and a bonus DVD with four music videos, as well as some slick packaging, it's a nice collector's item for fans, and a good jumping-off point for people looking to get their feet wet with one of the most versatile prog-metalcore groups in the business." However, Lymangrover also said, "it's not quite the full experience because BTBAM's impressive first self-titled album is not included, and the band's albums often play conceptually from front to end, but these are minor complaints."[2]
