Since this comment was written, Periphery has probably become one of the most mainstream progressive/djent bands and are partially responsible for the huge wave of the new "djent" bands trying to follow in their footsteps XD
All the singers that Periphery has had gets the job done, but Chris' clean vocal part at 1:10 is immaculate, that one section sounds better than the album version with Spencer, but regardless, all the singers got the job done.
being mainstream does not make you crap, if periphery do become mainstream it is up to them to maintain there sound and not give into social pressure and money.
@whatburnsnevereturns I kinda agree with morganchavis. Because when Veil of Maya's "[Id]" came out, not much people bought the album. Most of their fans bought it at Fye, or online
ok, looking to upgrade my steph carpenter...was looking at just a duncan jb for the bridge, but should i get a bare knuckle pickup? Which of their line is comparable and about how much do they go for?
@whatburnsnevereturns Yeah for sure, bro. Best of both worlds. Only thing is, it's really awkward looking when there's 2 dudes on stage and one of them is just chilling waiting for his part to come up. Haha. If they did it SikTh style and had them both doing things at the same time ALL the time, it would be pretty awesome. Either way, pumped the album comes out TODAY! Now I just have to find a store that will carry it...
Don't know if anybody's thought about this but check this out: Spencer - strictly clean vocals and Chris - strictly screaming, on the same stage = perhaps best band ever?
Music like this blows mainstream shit out of the water. I wish bands like periphery were mainstream, well actually no. Remain an underground band guys those mainstream kids don't even deserve to listen to your amazing music.
@whatburnsnevereturns just because their CD is sold at Hot Topic DOES NOT mean that the band is mainstream. It just means that the album is in the mainstream market. They aren't selling out and playing awful, generic, crap so they aren't mainstream.
@whatburnsnevereturns first, I'm not a sir. How is Periphery mainstream just because a mainstream store sells their album? The band still sounds like Periphery not BMTH or some other sell out band, please explain how having access to their album in a regular store makes the band mainstream?
@whatburnsnevereturns any decent metal that's recorded and produced by any respectable record label is usually found at hot topic.... mainstream or not.
@theallmightyham I was not the one with the "anti-mainstream parade". If a band like Periphery can get big enough for mainstream ears to hear without becoming utter crap, that's awesome. These guys deserve to be heard by anyone that will listen. I think you need to go back and read who was saying these guys were sellouts cause it wasn't me bro.
@Bret3333 you should want the band to be successful. Ever seen Veil of Maya live? They are SO fucking sick but they have a LOT of scene fans. They're still great.
Ok so you HONESTLY think that at a Metal concert which is what 105-110 dB. You can here the the strings OVER a wall of amps and a drummer! No wait a second...ARE YOU SPIDERMAN?!
@JamesENGL Actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea! They already have 3 guitarists. Pump that shit to 3 vocalist as well, and why not throw a second bassist and percussionist? ...I'm serious, that would kick ass haha.
@morganchavis Who cares if it's mainstream or not? I swear people care so much about their favourite band selling out that they forget that artists are free to create whatever they damn-well please. :P If you like the album, buy it; if not, don't. If Periphery became very popular, I would still listen to them, appreciating them for the music they make, instead of how many people like them.
@whatburnsnevereturns apparantly, Casey had the lead singer complex, and Spencer is just plain better than chris. (this is from conversations with them...halpern specifically). Also spencer apparantly ended up puking his guts cuz he was singing so hard (this was at their last show with animals as leaders during reading week) so he has my respect.
its not even the vocals that makes this band so good and thats all anyone talks about, i listened to their instrumental shit everyday before this album or anything came out. they're like an orchestra of guitarists its ridiculous.
I can see why they ditched Chris and went with Spencer... Chris is way too Metalcore with his cleans... Shades of Howard of Killswitch... And I fucking hate that guys singing.
@falige So we can field any questions fans may have in the comments. We like to keep in touch with the fans because we love em!
Since this comment was written, Periphery has probably become one of the most mainstream progressive/djent bands and are partially responsible for the huge wave of the new "djent" bands trying to follow in their footsteps XD
I hope you see this comment and know that your prediction came true
periphery is the best band alive, hands down
wow...i used to have the same guitar strap misha is using, kool haha...amazing vid...vocals sound sick!
Thanks for uploading this dude, I've watched it quite a few times.. I'm gonna miss Chris in Periphery. Such a brutal voice!
Totla Mad + Vocals + Presence of Bulb's BM = Godly
Damn, the scream is amazing. And the clean vocals has some great feel!
Vocals are great!
@Periphery That's really cool of you guys to do. In that case, I was wondering what's going on with Haunted Shores?
Ah, the wonders of the old solo.
All the singers that Periphery has had gets the job done, but Chris' clean vocal part at 1:10 is immaculate, that one section sounds better than the album version with Spencer, but regardless, all the singers got the job done.
awesome
being mainstream does not make you crap, if periphery do become mainstream it is up to them to maintain there sound and not give into social pressure and money.
Ive never heard vocals on this song.......sounds good.

@cavvogel
Blackmachine B6, my good man. Amazing guitar.
Periphery, love dat shit!
could someone post a link to a studio version for this? or tell me where to find it? that would be a christmas miracle
bulb is the man
Diggin the sonic the hedgehog shirt
@OTATre There is a video of spencer singing live?
Music like this blows mainstream shit out of the water. I wish bands like periphery were mainstream, well actually no. Remain an underground band guys those mainstream kids don't even deserve to listen to your amazing music.
I don't know if there's any way their new singer Spencer can make this song sound as amazing as Chris did. We'll have to see I guess. :P
Nice Sonic shirt Bulbie
@whatburnsnevereturns My band's CD is sold at Hottopic Amazon and Shouckhound and we aren't even signed, nor mainstream. lol
thats my head in the way most of the time lmao, amazing show though
@SilverEvolver Agreed.
@FootballnSoccer Haha we kicked his ass outta that band too, some people never learn hehe...
0:54 = lovely
@whatburnsnevereturns And if you put them into one person, you would have Casey Sabol!
I hate being THAT guy, but he was just soooo gooooooood.
that blackmachine guitar is SICK
They would need a huge darn stage though haha.
@whatburnsnevereturns Yea because where the album is sold affects the music I forgot right.
why'd this dude leave?
what kind of guitar is that?
@whatburnsnevereturns just because their CD is sold at Hot Topic DOES NOT mean that the band is mainstream. It just means that the album is in the mainstream market. They aren't selling out and playing awful, generic, crap so they aren't mainstream.
wait till you all hear the final version with their new undisclosed singer
HAH i love the beginning
mishas like "haaaahhh.. lets do this"
dananana*
@TheManSpider I would still like them so I agree with you; other people don't understand that.
corbin bleu is a metal singer?
that blackmachine is so freaking loud acoustically. i can hear misha strumming the shit out it over everything else
why exactly did they kick out chris?
@whatburnsnevereturns *is a chris fan*
@whatburnsnevereturns first, I'm not a sir. How is Periphery mainstream just because a mainstream store sells their album? The band still sounds like Periphery not BMTH or some other sell out band, please explain how having access to their album in a regular store makes the band mainstream?
why did this singer leave the band?
That's because he was sick in those videos. Have you checked at the videos from Foobar? I mean, holy shit.
holy fuck that sonic the hedgehog shirt is wicked!!!
@KillswitchEngage42 That said, Spencer is my favorite as of now. I'm convinced he will be fantastic.
@JEE Yeah man they'd own every fucking band out there haha. Just imagine how big that could sound!!!
@Periphery Hey there dudes, I love your music, but I was wondering why you're watching videos of yourselves? Seems a bit strange lol
sucks we'll never be able to hear the record with chris's vocals............
@JamesENGL
Hell, even the 2 singers (ala SikTh) would be amazing.
@whatburnsnevereturns any decent metal that's recorded and produced by any respectable record label is usually found at hot topic.... mainstream or not.

@Bret3333 you should want the band to be successful. Ever seen Veil of Maya live? They are SO fucking sick but they have a LOT of scene fans. They're still great.
This was such a sick show, im standing like 2 people to the right of this guy recording. Chis = pwnage. Spencer = whiner
@SimplyBaKeR Casey doesn't look like Chris at all. And it's definitely Chris. =P
I have higher hopes for Spencer, When Chris would sing it would kinda give me an uneasy feeling like he was on the verge of going out of key
@whatburnsnevereturns Are you sure cause that really looks like Casey hah
Misha's shirt is win.
Is that a Blackmachine? :O
Ok so you HONESTLY think that at a Metal concert which is what 105-110 dB. You can here the the strings OVER a wall of amps and a drummer!
No wait a second...ARE YOU SPIDERMAN?!
@JamesENGL Actually, that wouldn't be a bad idea! They already have 3 guitarists. Pump that shit to 3 vocalist as well, and why not throw a second bassist and percussionist?
...I'm serious, that would kick ass haha.
@morganchavis Who cares if it's mainstream or not? I swear people care so much about their favourite band selling out that they forget that artists are free to create whatever they damn-well please. :P
If you like the album, buy it; if not, don't. If Periphery became very popular, I would still listen to them, appreciating them for the music they make, instead of how many people like them.
They should blatently have kept Chris AND brought in Spencer... and maybe brainwash Casey to come back. 3 Part vocal harmonies live, ooo yeahhhhhh
Please ! Somebody give that headbanging head a headshot :-))
@whatburnsnevereturns apparantly, Casey had the lead singer complex, and Spencer is just plain better than chris. (this is from conversations with them...halpern specifically). Also spencer apparantly ended up puking his guts cuz he was singing so hard (this was at their last show with animals as leaders during reading week) so he has my respect.
Casey was clearly the best.
2:34
Did I seriously spell that "Foobar?" haha sorry
not the same without ragtime dandies
bulb wearing a sonic shirt xD
@whatburnsnevereturns Some say that they even BAMBOOZLE Them. :P
:41 to :53...fuck!
its not even the vocals that makes this band so good and thats all anyone talks about, i listened to their instrumental shit everyday before this album or anything came out. they're like an orchestra of guitarists its ridiculous.
@ObscureBeast Yeah it is good if you are a fan of Killswitch engage... Spencer is a far better singer than Chris.
STRIP AWAY ALL THE COMPONENTS!
I can see why they ditched Chris and went with Spencer... Chris is way too Metalcore with his cleans... Shades of Howard of Killswitch... And I fucking hate that guys singing.
