Are you planning on checking out Periphery’s first album? I highly, highly recommend it. You want Djent? It has Djent Ow My Feelings, Jetpacks Was Yes and Letter Experiment, Light and The Walk are my top 5 And yes, Spencer is singing on Periphery 1. He sounds like a completely different person but it’s still him 😅
I think it's about time we go to P3 - Motormouth. Absolomb, Lune, Flatline, The Price is Wrong, etc. Literally any Periphery song is worth checking out. Them and Tesseract are the only bands I've heard that genuinely haven't made a bad song.
@@Slamdd Every album has a different feel, including one album 'Altered State' with a different vocalist. I'd recommend starting with 'One' and working you way through the years. The whole Concealing Fate Saga on 'One' is gorgeous.
I'm two years late to this, but hearing you say "I don't want to pause it" made me super happy. It's one if the best compliments for a song when you don't want to distract yourself from it.
Periphery literally doesn’t miss. Check out more P3 for sure, like Lune, The Way The News Goes and Habitual Line Stepper. Also Juggernaut Alpha has some incredible songs too: 22 Faces, Psychosphere, Alpha and Rainbow Gravity
I remember where I was when I first heard it, like it was a big event. Periphery had dropped the album early because it was already leaked, and I had listened to it first thing that morning while going out to do some mountain biking. It was on the way home that I got to Satellites and that explosion half way through rocked me. That was a good day.
DAMN DREW! After all these reaction videos you still haven't learn to always listen to a track until the very end? :p You missed the best part of the whole song :v
Thanks for doing this one Drew…one of my favourite tracks. You need to check out It’s only smiles too P.S. I think you are going to get a lot of comments about not listening to the end ;P
Made my day just by seeing this upload today! With Periphery being my favorite band I am literally down for you to react to any song by them! My two favorites are Garden in the Bones and Luck as a Constant if you need a suggestion though :)
a year late but i sat down and listened to PII for the first time a couple weeks ago and the luck as a constant and ragnarok section of the album is seriously one of the greatest things ive ever heard
@HAHAHA HAHAHA Still got the notification lol! And I agree. Periphery, more specifically, Luck as a constant, inspired me to start learning guitar/music in general in my 20s
Hell yeah my man, Satellites phenomenal track. Of course, check out more Periphery, but think you should also give The Contortionist another shot as well. I remember the first song you listened to by them you were a little bit on the fence on, their sound is pretty similar to this track imo, especially their album Clairvoyant. The part where you mentioned "the four horsemen" is an interesting talking point, I think the djent fanbase collectively would call the four horsemen Periphery, Meshuggah, Tesseract, and Animals as Leaders. I'm not the hugest AAL fan and seems you don't seem to be either, I would personally put the Contortionist in that spot instead of AAL, everything else stays the same. "Engulfed" is a good word to describe it but I think the better word is "Entranced". These longer-length songs can definitely put you into a trance and that's why I love to listen to them.
I don't know much from Periphery. But this was a really good track. Now I know 3 songs from them :) I love 'Its only smiles'. The verse is a bit weak, but the chorus, the bridge and the break down are INSANELY good.
Oi Drew. Let me drop some dem recommends. Periphery - Absolomb (Trance-like Djenty bliss) Jinjer - Mediator (new track with excellent blend of thrash and groove) Archspire - Golden Mouth of Ruin (illegally nasty) Leprous - The Sky is Red Baard Kolstad music video (for when you want another prog epic) Dance Gavin Dance - Prisoner (Don't know if you've heard em but I think you'd dig) Karnivool - Goliath (27/4 has never sounded better) 🤘
Drew try Flatline or Lune, more powerful Spencer vocals here, also The Way The News Goes is epic and so is Absolomb, Psychosphere, Scarlet and Sentient Glow are all bangers. Keep up the Periphery content dude :)
Perhaps you can turn the volume even lower? All jokes aside, it's not just that the volume is really low, but it also keeps fluctuating, which is really annoying. Just letting you know.
I thought his vocals were great for what they were at that time in the bands career. I have a lot of fond memories in community college with blasting Jetpacks was Yes and Letter Experiment between classes.
Drop a like for more Periphery dudes❤️

Did you listen to: Lune ? That is one above all.
Lune, It's Only Smiles, Sentient Glow - last two from last album, underrated tracks but you gonna love it
Pls do "The Scourge" from Juggernaut Alpha
Got to be The Parade of Ashes. A proper bounce!
To me, this is Spencer's masterpiece. As a band, Reptile is untouchable, but this track is Spencer's show. Simply fantastic vocals.
Well said, sir
agreed
Exactly
Omega is right there with reptile I think
That “we’re going underrrrrrrr” line hits a ton of bricks…
2 years later and I still get goosebumps everytime
If I don't actively resist, this song makes me tear up every single time. In a way that no other song did before. It's too beautiful.

Yeah good shout. Flatline still hits me, so emotional. Drew, make sure you get the meaning of Flatline before you listen to it ❤
yeah like i have my least favorite periphery songs but with that being said, not a single one they have is bad, same with tesseract
Periphery is my favorite band of all time but I’ve never checked out Tesseract, got any songs to start with?

Oceans ate alaska used to be in the same boat but the new song is ass so not anymore
I'm two years late to this, but hearing you say "I don't want to pause it" made me super happy. It's one if the best compliments for a song when you don't want to distract yourself from it.
HAHA u missed the wisest words in history by pausing in the last seconds
I saw that cursor hovering the pause button, I was hoping he wouldn’t pause it xD
This was immediately my favourite when the album came out, felt like it didn't get enough love. Nice to rediscover!
Periphery literally doesn’t miss. Check out more P3 for sure, like Lune, The Way The News Goes and Habitual Line Stepper. Also Juggernaut Alpha has some incredible songs too: 22 Faces, Psychosphere, Alpha and Rainbow Gravity
Habitual Line Stepper is a must
Also Facepalm mute is so overlooked
I remember where I was when I first heard it, like it was a big event. Periphery had dropped the album early because it was already leaked, and I had listened to it first thing that morning while going out to do some mountain biking. It was on the way home that I got to Satellites and that explosion half way through rocked me. That was a good day.
Love the TesseracT art behind you!!
You should do the Matt Halpern drum playthrough. Spencer's G5 was amazing but Matt's drums are phenomenal.
DAMN DREW! After all these reaction videos you still haven't learn to always listen to a track until the very end? :p
You missed the best part of the whole song :v
Sakmaballs
Thanks for doing this one Drew…one of my favourite tracks. You need to check out It’s only smiles too
P.S. I think you are going to get a lot of comments about not listening to the end ;P
They have so many great songs it is hard to choose a favorite! They are in my top 3 bands with Leprous and Caligula's Horse.
So many ppl misses the thingy at the end
Periphery - Absolomb for a feels trip.
Made my day just by seeing this upload today! With Periphery being my favorite band I am literally down for you to react to any song by them! My two favorites are Garden in the Bones and Luck as a Constant if you need a suggestion though :)
a year late but i sat down and listened to PII for the first time a couple weeks ago and the luck as a constant and ragnarok section of the album is seriously one of the greatest things ive ever heard
@HAHAHA HAHAHA Still got the notification lol! And I agree. Periphery, more specifically, Luck as a constant, inspired me to start learning guitar/music in general in my 20s
Please check out Periphery-Absolomb, IMO one of their best and complete songs, and incredible vocal performance/guitar solo.
Noooo you paused too early...
Hahaha I was waiting for it too
Yeah gota hear that last 2 seconds.... seriously
Facts. Drew listen to the last 10 seconds.
I had the same reaction dude after the 7 min mark, it just lights ya up haha incredible
You missed the best part!
frrr
PSA that Spiritbox released a new album a couple of days ago!
If you wanna groovy periphery, go for Motormouth or Follow your Ghost
You know whats coming... Thornhill - Coven! And also just letting you know Monuments releases their new album next week🤘
That title put a smile in my face
bro, the sleep token album is out and you 100% should do the full thing. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it
Hell yeah my man, Satellites phenomenal track. Of course, check out more Periphery, but think you should also give The Contortionist another shot as well.

X2 on the contortionist suggestion. Altho I think he should check out as well Exoplanet just to see how they started out
I don't know much from Periphery. But this was a really good track. Now I know 3 songs from them :)
I love 'Its only smiles'. The verse is a bit weak, but the chorus, the bridge and the break down are INSANELY good.
you should check out Absolomb, Lune, Garden in The Bones, Mile Zero or 22 Faces, all of them are really good songs
Once periphery finally clicks there's no going back.
I have listened to Sentient Glow from Hail Stan every day this month. The track b4 Satellites. Can't get enough! Equal in beauty and power
Oi Drew. Let me drop some dem recommends.
Periphery - Absolomb (Trance-like Djenty bliss)
Jinjer - Mediator (new track with excellent blend of thrash and groove)
Archspire - Golden Mouth of Ruin (illegally nasty)
Leprous - The Sky is Red Baard Kolstad music video (for when you want another prog epic)
Dance Gavin Dance - Prisoner (Don't know if you've heard em but I think you'd dig)
Karnivool - Goliath (27/4 has never sounded better) 🤘

You should check out 'swarm' by Meshuggah on the Koloss album.
Great one! Garden in the bones is my fav! (Y)
Check out prayer position
i have 10 years i'm from Brazil i play drums i Love these song 🤘🤘🤘
Check out peripherys drummer playthrough this song. It’s beautiful to watch.
Vildhjarta are a sick band, just release a new album. 'Den Helige Anden' is a banger ❤
In my head, Periphery are masters of MOMENTUM. Create and keep a grrove, and create off from it........
You paused it too soon. You need to listen all the way to the end…
bro you missed a gem at the last second of the song hahaha
frrr
Let's goooo
I know you dig it when it comes to djent, but are you ready for thall ??
I just want him to react to the old Omnislash demo album. Still the best Vildhjarta
Perhaps you can turn the volume even lower?
All jokes aside, it's not just that the volume is really low, but it also keeps fluctuating, which is really annoying. Just letting you know.
Obzen is a top-tier album, all bangers!
Erra - Snowblood reaction!
You should react on Juggernaut Alpha my guy! Id suggest either 22 Faces or The Scourge
Man. You never learn. LISTEN. TO. THE. WHOLE. SONG.
someone pls tell the music from the intro
Satellites Periphery
I love that Spencer went from being one of the worst metalcore vocalists in p1 to one of the best.
i wouldnt count Periphery as metalcore, but i agree with the evaluation of his vocals
@Someguy136 Spence has always been an amazing lyricist, but his tone in p1 was absolutely atrocious.
spencer was great in p1 but it was obvious the material wasn't written for him
@@fscorpion678 nah, all of his singing was done in the throat register.
I thought his vocals were great for what they were at that time in the bands career. I have a lot of fond memories in community college with blasting Jetpacks was Yes and Letter Experiment between classes.
Where's new Spiritbox? Yellowjacket, The Summit and Sun Killer are awesome
Thanks for not pausing 🙏
You should do a reaction to the song the light that blinds by shadows fall.
Oh noooo you missed the last part😢
More periphery!
Try luck as a constant . Periphery's best song ever
Stranger things from Juggernaut: Omega
Do the new Spiritbox album
😍😍😍😍😍
Follow Your Ghost? 👀👀
You should react to Veil of Maya songs, man! Please
PLEASE react to Copycat by Jinjer!!!

That title put a smile in my face
