To those of you who may not know. Chris is no longer the vocalist for Periphery. BUT HE IS BACK! he is the vocalist for Misha (periphery) Mansoor's side project Haunted Shores!! check out the song exclusively on my page!
@TriviumSamurai I agree, 150%. He brings so much passion and excitement into the band, and Spencer just sings, he just feels like any other singer, ugh.
I am astonished by how good Chris Baretto is live! My favorite vocalist for Periphery WAS Casey, but man, austinleech's videos have shown a whole new light on Chris for me. I sincerely doubt Casey could replicate his vocal parts live to the degree that Chris has shown in these vids. Just Wow. Amazing vocalist!
and so does matt halpern but they have their own styles which i like... for example, casey and chris have monsters of voices when screaming but both lack the vocal range that spencer has... i think every vocalist had their own special way of delivering their songs...
Drummer is sick, look at the Smooth 3 peace jazz kit. Minimal as all fuck, but the sound he drawing out is unreal. Compaire it to the drumset behind him. Love that shit.
No one can beat Chris with The Walk, but for clean vocals... Spencer is my fav... Listen to "Light" you'll see what i mean, Spencer is a great singer, but Chris is fucking insane with his screaming skills.
From what I heard is Casey wasn't able to handle touring and such. Too much stress or whatever. I could've heard wrong though. But touring is tough. You really have to love what ur doing.
Misha said that the reason that Casey left the band is because he just wasn't as good live, as he was in the studio. I'm not sure what happened with Chris, but the band has kept us in the dark about that, so I would respect their privacy. I'm actually a huge Casey fan. I love his cleans. I wasn't so big on his screams at first, but now that I've given it another listen, I really do love them. Periphery
Chris is so fucking good at what he does, i wanna know the real reason they fired Chris. Im pissed as Misha, and the rest of periphery, all i know is Spencer will never be able to live up to chris's or casey's vocals
periphery put on one of the best performances ive ever seen. chris is an animal on stage, i prefer chris over spencer. Spencer sounds too emo somethings. and chris's growls were way better
does it make me a bad person if I say I like this band more than meshuggah? i like meshuggah and i know they probably influenced this band alot, but idk i just like it more.
well I saw periphery live last night with spencer.. and he has gotten A LOT better than I heard a few months ago.. I still think chris was a better fit for periphery but spencer can fuckin sing! just gotta work on his low growls
I have actually. I saw them in september. I thought they were amazing, but something about Spencer's voice just didn't feel like it fit right. Then again, I am one opinion in a mist of thousands. I'll have to see what they will do in the years to come. But that night i left happy because I saw periphery in person.
periphery could always get chris back and rerelease the album with him on vocals and add a few songs (misha has shitloads of songs)....it's already finished they just recorded it with spencer after chris was out of the band....sumerian records (there record label) did something similar with after the burial and rereleased there album rareform when they got a new vocalist......hmm....maybe you never know.
and what exactly is wrong with that? at least their not dedicating the entire life to something like being in a hardcore/metal/progressive band and actually being realistic with its longevity. but for these guys i actually think theyll go far. their not a mainstream hardcore band either, so why dress like one? btbam doesnt all have long hair and they are amazing at what they do. dont rip on the smart kids!
I believe he was fired because he was an uncooperative dick. Spencer is also really fucking good at what he does. Fuck, he recorded the debut album in 3 weeks. The key for being a successful band is to obviously not be a dick and cooperate with your band. Spencer kick started Periphery's career, in my opinion. His godly range just blows the old vocalist's out of the water. Yes, Chris is amazing, but Spencer is just a better vocalist. Lineups change, man.
I still lol everytime i see somebody say that Chris is better than Spencer. Such ignorance. He can growl, and it sounds great, but his singing absolutely sucked.
Would give one of my toes to see these guys live. Please come to sweden as soon as you can.
the only periphery song i can listen to with vocals
best band ever, can't wait for album
i know a few of the members.
they tech music.
so you're kinda right. :P
This is the first time I see Chris live. Kick ass!
Such a simple drum set, cool.
Excellent Videos, I don't even know what to say. These may be some of the best performances I have ever seen
To those of you who may not know.
Chris is no longer the vocalist for Periphery.
BUT HE IS BACK! he is the vocalist for Misha (periphery) Mansoor's side project Haunted Shores!!

@TriviumSamurai I agree, 150%. He brings so much passion and excitement into the band, and Spencer just sings, he just feels like any other singer, ugh.
I just love how simple his drum-kit is. But it still sounds epicly large!
I am astonished by how good Chris Baretto is live!
My favorite vocalist for Periphery WAS Casey, but man, austinleech's videos have shown a whole new light on Chris for me.
I sincerely doubt Casey could replicate his vocal parts live to the degree that Chris has shown in these vids.
Just Wow. Amazing vocalist!
I think Chris was their best.
Exactly my thoughts. Chris is awesome, the band has shaped up pretty perfectly
I love the fact that Matt has only his floor tom. fuckin sick.
this song is so badass.
baretto, misha and halpern are the shit.
love the other guys as well lool
@TheImpaler13 No. Wrong Chris. The Chris you're thinking of is Chris Moore.
Such good live sound! In my opinion Periphery is one of the most talented new bands. Just got signed to Sumerian too! Fuckin' awesome!
their stage presence is so weird, but they're so kickass
@jimikunz This is the previous vocalist, Chris.
@mattisnotuncool i'd say he just kicks ass!
I like spencer
@UltimateGajeel a band called Ever Forthright. THEY'RE FUCKING BADASS
I enjoy the puzzle he makes at 00:11
@XCallXMeXmatt correct
@chriscoooley Who told you that?
and so does matt halpern but they have their own styles which i like... for example, casey and chris have monsters of voices when screaming but both lack the vocal range that spencer has... i think every vocalist had their own special way of delivering their songs...
maybe because its a tricky part and the drummer asked him to do so on that part to refrain from getting lost?
Drummer is sick, look at the Smooth 3 peace jazz kit. Minimal as all fuck, but the sound he drawing out is unreal. Compaire it to the drumset behind him. Love that shit.
@breakinknucklesruler i knew i wasn't the only one...
@a1s1s1c imagine if he had some more toms. he'd tear that shit up
No one can beat Chris with The Walk, but for clean vocals... Spencer is my fav... Listen to "Light" you'll see what i mean, Spencer is a great singer, but Chris is fucking insane with his screaming skills.
No, you like what you like. That is the beauty of music, there are no rules on what you're allowed to like or dislike.
@mickyfrombybh I'm fairly sure you don't count cymbals
damn
From what I heard is Casey wasn't able to handle touring and such. Too much stress or whatever. I could've heard wrong though. But touring is tough. You really have to love what ur doing.
isnt that chris formerly from I see stars
Misha said that the reason that Casey left the band is because he just wasn't as good live, as he was in the studio. I'm not sure what happened with Chris, but the band has kept us in the dark about that, so I would respect their privacy.
I'm actually a huge Casey fan. I love his cleans. I wasn't so big on his screams at first, but now that I've given it another listen, I really do love them.
Periphery
sounds if like the crash is broken
6 pieces to that drum set, that takes balls. I'm pretty sure the drummer from BTBAM has 6 different chinas...
Chris is so fucking good at what he does, i wanna know the real reason they fired Chris. Im pissed as Misha, and the rest of periphery, all i know is Spencer will never be able to live up to chris's or casey's vocals
what do you think now
periphery put on one of the best performances ive ever seen. chris is an animal on stage, i prefer chris over spencer. Spencer sounds too emo somethings. and chris's growls were way better
does it make me a bad person if I say I like this band more than meshuggah? i like meshuggah and i know they probably influenced this band alot, but idk i just like it more.
What camera did you use bro?
Few questions...so this is the old singer correct? when did he leave?
And which singer is on the mp3 that is on the myspace for this song??
Dat dingwall bass
was it chris or casey tht recorded this, cuz the original is fucking raw
This song will never be the same again..
Needs moar movement, otherwise I fucking love it. It's like dropkicking old people.
well I saw periphery live last night with spencer.. and he has gotten A LOT better than I heard a few months ago.. I still think chris was a better fit for periphery but spencer can fuckin sing! just gotta work on his low growls
I have actually. I saw them in september. I thought they were amazing, but something about Spencer's voice just didn't feel like it fit right. Then again, I am one opinion in a mist of thousands. I'll have to see what they will do in the years to come. But that night i left happy because I saw periphery in person.
correct, but they probably all do still work their REAL day jobs.
What do you have to say now? Seen Periphery lately?
that guy's destroying that pretty basic kit!
Noice!
*butthurt comment about hating Spencer*
@szuchmann You mean aside from the fact that he delayed their album and acted like a complete diva?
periphery could always get chris back and rerelease the album with him on vocals and add a few songs (misha has shitloads of songs)....it's already finished they just recorded it with spencer after chris was out of the band....sumerian records (there record label) did something similar with after the burial and rereleased there album rareform when they got a new vocalist......hmm....maybe you never know.
@KSE828 sorry, black people with afros look the same...common mistake lol
and what exactly is wrong with that? at least their not dedicating the entire life to something like being in a hardcore/metal/progressive band and actually being realistic with its longevity. but for these guys i actually think theyll go far. their not a mainstream hardcore band either, so why dress like one? btbam doesnt all have long hair and they are amazing at what they do. dont rip on the smart kids!
buenos musicos pero las voz le da en la madre a la banda

@xMACx982 periphery kicked him out because chris was lazy and never got shit done
chris is way better then spencer. spencer is some shit. but this is so fuckin sick.
this shit sure isn't very easy to play on guitar, and lowering your strap doesnt make it any easier
I still lol everytime i see somebody say that Chris is better than Spencer. Such ignorance. He can growl, and it sounds great, but his singing absolutely sucked.
