    I think it's so cute how passionate the haters are, like it's really important to them that the music sounds a certain way because they secretly love the band so much, it says more about them than it does about us haha

    First time I've come back to this video since the album came out. I always used to share your music with my little brother because I love your music and wanted to share it with him. It's been 2 weeks since he passed away and this was one of his favorite Periphery songs. Thank you guys for doing what you do and giving us something to bond over. I love you Thomas. 2/24/96 - 1/13/19 ❤

    Please stop saying it sounds "poppy" just because it's got a major tonality. This is great. Favorite from the releases so far.

  • @LimitlessDream1
    @LimitlessDream1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I feel like with EVERY new album a band comes out with it suddenly sounds "less heavy" or "pop" and I question where people get "pop" from this is no where near and in my perspective will never sound like that because this is COMPLETELY different and no where near sounding like pop. There's guitars, there's bass, there's drums, there's screams, aggression, confidence, loud, enthusiastic, performance in these fine musicians. But why do people think it's less heavy all of a sudden. It still sounds like periphery to me. If you guys listen very..very..VERY close to how they play you will suddenly realize what their style is and accept and respect for what they are. I remember my first song I heard was make total destroy , I went back and heard their old stuff.. They were very interesting it was very different unlike any band I heard in my opinion and it's crazy how I grew passionate for this band and had nothing but respect for them. Keep up the great work guys! Btw not every music has to be so "heavy" open your horizons rather than narrowing your taste and style down. Music is about opening up not narrowing. Gain some appreciation people.

    THIS GOES OUT TO ALL THE MEMBERS OF PERIPHERY!!!
    How dare you guys try to explore and grow as musicians, music isn't subjective, its all about what I want. Making the same album over and over is the key to success, look at all the greats The Beatles, The Pink Floyd, The Nickleback, I rest my case. Let me give you guys some unsolicited carer advice, on the next album just make 14 different versions of "Icarus Lives", you will be on your way to becoming the next Kid Rock for sure. Also yea I know I don't have the success you guys do, but what I do have is an Axe FX, superior drummer, and a computer, thus technically making me a part of the "industry" and my opinion valid.

      @xXSnip3r117Xx 10 ปีที่แล้ว +31

      Your opinion is wrong. Making 14 different Icarus Lives is NOT the way to success. They should do 14 versions of Scarlet, but without the screams. Screams are satanic, and make people not like a song.

    This song is literally amazing, I love the dynamic between major and minor, almost exists in between the two, and I really think that this stuff takes on the old Periphery and just enhances it so much. Absolutely love it.

  • @bradymulkey
    @bradymulkey 10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I love everything Periphery has released for Juggernaut. As a guitar player and a musician myself, I know that it's hard to write music to the masses. Metal has always been about mixing your influences into what you as a fan wants to hear. Write music for yourself, not to the masses. Periphery is a great band of GREAT musicians and I wish I had half the talent that any member in Periphery has. They write MUSIC. Not your typical stock ass metal riffs. There's enough of those bands. I'm all for anything Periphery does.

  • @kylejacobs5402
    @kylejacobs5402 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think this is awsome, it really shows how diverse they can be, its nice to hear different types of progressions rather then the same riff over and over again

  • @RingoFreakingStarr
    @RingoFreakingStarr 10 ปีที่แล้ว +73

    Periphery is welcome to make whatever type of music they want to. I have absolutely no right to tell them otherwise as I would never want any band to cave into something they don't feel is "right". My opinion though is that from what I have heard in this song, and from the previous album as a whole is that they are moving away from what made me like them. Yeah their first album was heavy as fuck with mostly minor progressions but it was much more than that for me. Every track just had this presence and balls that made me want to re-listen to every song over and over again. The previous album just sounded so...so tame and uninspiring and that is exactly what I am sensing from these early releases from the new album(s). Even the heavy parts just seem off.
    Anyways just one man's opinion please don't get discouraged from it. Your newer stuff is just not my cup of tea right now. But please for the love of god smack some sense into me and pull a comeback kid and somehow blow me away with this new album. I want to like you guys I really do.

    • @MishaMansoor
      @MishaMansoor 10 ปีที่แล้ว +81

      No worries dude, and fair dinkum if you aren't into what we are putting out now. We are incredibly happy with these albums and I know I have never been so excited to release our music before, so I would urge you to give the albums a bunch of fair spins from front to back to see if that sways you, but if it doesn't then we are glad to have had your support for at least a little bit. Cheers!

      Misha Mansoor In all honesty, you guys will keep getting better and better. Everyone says how this sounds so commercial, but I believe you guys should get noticed even more by popular media. Cause in all honesty, more people need to hear you. You guys are just so damn good, you talented mofos have yet to fail at making awesome records. You guys keep being awesome!

  • @thrasher6824
    @thrasher6824 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Those who say it is too poppy, apparently did not care for "Clear" too much.
    Keep it up guys. The evolution of this band just goes to show, you are IMO, the most talented musicians I have heard.

  • @tmayne220
    @tmayne220 10 ปีที่แล้ว +77

    People familiar with a band will come to a new release with expectations. An evolving band, especially with a certain amount of hype, will disappoint those flocking with those expectations (as we are now seeing in the comment section).
    Really like what I'm hearing on this track: fun, melodic, cinematic and groove metal that doesn't sound like Meshuggah worship (refreshing!). The only thing i'd like to see Periphery do more of going into the future is be a little more dynamic! it seems to be either clean/ambient/electronica stuff or balls-out-metal: rarely anything between.

  • @justinmyers899
    @justinmyers899 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I started listening to Hard Rock when i was 11 and was opened up to metal when i was around 13. Through the years of 13 to 16 I was all about Avenged Sevenfold, Rise Against, Breaking Benjamin, Attila, etc.. Now, at 17, after being introduced to periphery, I cant find it in me to listen to any other band besides Periphery because their not just your stereotypical Metal band. Periphery is a group of incredible talented musicians with a passion for music. I'm inspired beyond any scale from the way they know how to create a beautiful rhythmic feel of any emotion without basing it on one instrument (i.g. most rhythm guitars would play a simple extended cord to capture emotion as the lead plays individual notes to fill.) Everything is always moving and when they do get stuck play cords they always find a way to make up for it, either introducing a complex pattern or an incredible vocal moment to keep you jamming out no matter where you may be blasting their amazing sound. I myself one day plan to go to college for music, including Sound Engineering, and really hope to find people willing to start a Progressive Metal band that would be strongly influenced by Periphery. I feel this world has slowly been taking a turn in the wrong direction in terms of music. Its time to show the world that music isn't all about a songs vocals or beat or lyrics, its about the part of music where creativity is a proven freedom full of talent. Keep on jamming Periphery! Allow your influence on music to spread forever in the future!

      Poppy? When you were inside your mother as a foetus, when it came time for your brain to develop, something went seriously wrong and you ended up with shit in your skull instead of a brain. That's gotta be what happened because Periphery doesn't make poppy music.

  • @dudeman289
    @dudeman289 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I definitely hear the vocals taking a more pronounced position and the guitars being rolled back a little. Any band at one point or another is going to evolve, you wouldn't listen to the same album the rest of your life so why expect them to write the same album? They write what they feel at the time. I can 100% hear the collaboration on this more so than previous albums and so far I dig it. I don't understand what people are up in arms over, this is a killer fucking song and I'm frothing at the mouth waiting for more! Keep it up guys!

    OFFICIAL LYRICS:
    It's always better on the other side of it
    Wanting what you never have
    It is a goddamn, broken state of mind that we've been living in
    It's never greener inside the mess we're in
    Wanting what you never have
    The less we are content the more we throw away what little time we have left to grow
    Separate mind from me, but still I have no adamant will to leave
    What little time we have
    Stop bleeding on the inside
    We are alive, and it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white
    Can we show the one's who are blind?
    It's envy eating away at the core of us
    Wanting what you never have
    Isn't it the point of living to breathe
    Knowing this is all we need
    It's never greener inside the mess we're in
    Wanting what you never have
    The less we are content the more we throw away what little time we have left to grow
    Separate mind from me, but still I have no adamant will to leave
    What little time we have
    Stop bleeding on the inside
    We are alive, and it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white
    Can we show the ones who are blind?
    Show them that we're not blind!
    We're not blind!
    Stop bleeding on the inside
    We are alive, and it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white
    Can we show the ones who are blind?
    Fly past the withered trees
    Ascend to holy air and breath
    (Separating)
    (drive me crazy)
    Separating mind)
    This want is menacing and will not leave us be
    Can we purge this?
    The bastard in our brain will chew until it bleeds
    How did we get like this?
    Step out in the rain
    Feel life in our veins

    Could not be more stoked. I keep hearing riffs from the studio updates and now I see how they pieced it together. From Icarus Lives to here, I've experienced one of the greatest, most epic bands this genre (and other genres perhaps) has to offer. No, THE most epic band. These guys cover more ground than many other bands would hope to cover,
    and yet this is only their third full-length album.
    Juggernaut will be swell, but I hope for future releases they do not cave in their originality.

  • @boobymiles7513

    Really looking forward to this release. Every song so far seems to have it's own identity, like well-developed characters in a TV show/anime/etc. It seems like you guys had a certain direction that you wanted each individual song to go in, so I'm real curious as to what their specific roles are in the story, and how they all tie together.

    Periphery is just one of those bands that I can appreciate anything they put out. I've always liked them for their diversity, not for just one of their many sounds. I might not be as hooked on the new material as some of their older stuff, but I'm still thoroughly enjoying it and I can't wait to listen to it all the way through. I don't understand where all the hate has been coming from.

    *NOW YOU ONLY HAVE TO READ ONE COMMENT, I WILL PREDICT THEM:*
    1. Spencer has a pop voice!
    2. Periphery I was so much better than this!
    3. I'm glad they're not djent (or otherwise some negative comment about djent)
    4. Metal is starting to sound too much like pop! :(
    5. Avenged Sevenfold, Black Veil Brides, and BOTDF suck!!!
    6. That one RARE comment about how Periphery is taking a good direction
    Anyway, this song is pretty cool! Not as heavy as I prefer, but I like it! Looking forward to hearing some of the heavy stuff in the studio updates!

    Lyrics
    It's always better on the other side of it
    Wanting what you'll never have
    And it's a goddamn broken state of mind
    Yeah, the one that we've been living in
    It's never greener inside the mess we're in
    Wanting what you'll never have
    The less we are content the more we throw away
    What little time we have left to grow
    Separate mind from hate
    Punch through the unknown
    Adamant will to leave the little time we have
    Stop bleeding on the inside, we are alive
    And it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white
    Can we show the ones who are blind?
    It's envy been eating away at the core of us
    Wanting what you'll never have
    Isn't it the point of living to breathe
    Knowing this is all we need
    It's never greener inside the mess we're in
    Wanting what you'll never have
    The less we are content the more we throw away
    What little time we have left to grow
    Separate mind from hate
    Punch through the unknown
    Adamant will to leave the little time we have
    Show them that we're not blind
    Stop bleeding on the inside, we are alive
    And it's more than enough to paint the walls that are white
    Can we show the ones who are blind?
    (x4)
    Fly past the withered trees
    Ascend to holy air and breathe
    Fly past the withered trees
    Ascend to holy air and breathe
    This want is menacing, it will not leave us be
    Can we purge this?
    The bastard in our brain will chew until it bleeds
    How did we get like this?
    How did we get like this?
    Step out in the rain
    Feel life in our veins
    Step out in the rain
    Feel life in our veins

  • @UponTatteredWings12
    @UponTatteredWings12 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    For years I practically refused to listen to Periphery because I was one of the people who couldnt get into Spencer's vocal style. I was a death metal vocalist at the time and was stuck in a box of "everything needs to stupidly heavy, fast, and include deep growls" but ever since I started branching out from the depths of death metal, deathcore, and well any and all things absurdly heavy I have discovered music that really transcends my expectations. First I stumbled upon Protest the Hero which opened a door for me as a vocalist that I never even thought of opening, then I stumbled upon Nothing More which opened even more doors to musicianship, and for the last few months I found Periphery which has blown my mind all over the damn place. Listening to Periphery has helped me find out that I can actually sing not just scream at the top of my lungs and do covers of anything that includes a rasp in your voice. I used to be the "fuck this music its for pussies" troll but now that I have sat down on multiple occasions and listened to Periphery's entire discography I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is true musicians music along with the other bands I posted above. These guys found a way to combine pieces of so many different styles of music (note that I said music and not just metal) and craft them into works of art that it takes a deeper understanding of music itself to fully appreciate. Hell I just finished a play through of P1, Icarus, P2, Clear, all the singles from Juggernaut Alpha/Omega, and I see a band that is evolving into something much bigger than it was when it started. P1 was mostly Misha going absolutely ham on every song and now the new tunes are a culmination of the entire bands vision for their music. Its really refreshing to see a band expand upon their original sound without it taking away from what originally made them great. There are differences but that is called evolution my friends. 22 faces, The Bad Thing, and Graveless sound like old school Periphery without a doubt and Alpha has a way of getting stuck in your head for hours at a time even if you haven't listened to it in a while. I know trolls are going to come and rip this post to shreds because they think their opinion means more than anyone elses which it doesn't. Everyone's opinion means the exact same....nothing. Its just your personal point of view and nobody is wrong when its their opinion because its your own personal beliefs. I've been the troll and once you grow out of the box that you live in you'll realize that Periphery is carrying the torch for the future of metal and music alike. Let these guys keep doing their thing and quit bashing them because its not how you would go about writing the tunes. This is Spencer, Jake's, Misha's, Nolly's, Matt's, and Mark's band...not our's and we should be happy that they want to share their music with us and not keep it to themselves. Stop being internet trolls, if you don't like the music then go listen to something you do like and let the people who actually enjoy it converse about the music we all love. Keep up the great work Periphery!!! Those of us who truely appreciate your music have your back!!!!

      You have to consider that there are twice as many songs to look forward to. They want to tease us with the project they have spent a lot of time experimenting with and perfecting.

    I will never understand how people can be so critical of the music bands like Periphery put out, obviously they have some different style here but you can't deny that it's still good fucking music.

    • @Mp5Drummer
      @Mp5Drummer 10 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      There are a few references to pushing and pulling (The Scourge, 22 Faces, Psychosphere), seems to have something to do with the cover art of Alpha. All the references to walls as well make me curious about the house on the cover of Omega. Also looks like some sort of rip in the Earth/reality under the house, which ties in with The Bad Thing and The Scourge. Mind control seems to be a theme as well, "Now I am a product of a mind that wasn't ever mine". MK Ultra was a secret government mind control project. The themes are all coming together, but the most of the acutal story I can clean is that the main character faces a struggle to control his own body and finds himself travelling to either some sort of afterlife or a parallel world.
      I think I might be what you could call an obsessive fan.

    • @will4282
      @will4282 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nah man, you're on to something! I looked up the theory of rainbow gravity as well; interesting stuff (theory essentially denounces the idea of the Big Bang)! The song title hell below makes me think that the "bad thing" was the main character being tricked into opening a path into hell. Some of the preorder merch has some of the other art on it to, and everyone in the band keeps pushing this theme of "the wraith", even though there hasn't really been any explicit references in the music yet

    It doesn't even really have a major "tonality." The two "major" sounding chords in the intro are both minor chords (with some additions that form the major sounding triads). And although the chorus has a "poppy" chord progression, I feel like it makes the odd-meter more digestible.
    I think the music sounds fresh and inspired, but that's just my opinion.
