obviously the best "djent" band on the side of Periphery!!! no dissing to the other competitors, but Circles' melodies are so round and catchy, total hit!!!! and I love their style; they play djent, and they're somewhat closer to rock than metal. so innovative!!!!!
@Nuclearsalt I agree, if this type of music has a distinct style and tone, and people refer to it as djent, then it is a subgenre, or style if you will. Meanings of words do in fact change, such as how djent now refers to a style of prog metal as opposed to a sound a guitar makes
@slayerfan2010 I agree, but in the same sense it takes a lot more to do both. Especially when it's one vocalist. I prefer the mix of both, adds as much atmosphere as the music itself.
I'm hear because... I just learned about a few other Djent bands. I have no idea what Djent is. To me it sounds like a mixture of like Posthard core/Indie/Experimental. And just the thought of combing those style of music is awesome to do it would probably be even more awesome. And if this is actually what Djent is then I am awesome haha.
Liked the vocalist, remember me of Ray Alder, from Fates Warning. If you came from a prog metal type of style, you will probably like this guy. Hahaha its strange to see guys talking about 'djent' roots already, for a style (if it can be called like this) so young...
@slayerfan2010 actually, depending on the type of scream, it takes a lot more to scream than to sing. it takes months to develop subpar vocals, that is if you take very good care of your voice. screaming is like working out, you can only work muscles work so hard. yet alone, no one can really teach screaming vocals. xD
All you nay-sayers need to stop sippin on that haterade and open your ears! These guys are better than most of the other bands in this genre. This is what good music sounds like.
Check out In Search of Sight, from my home town and featured on an Adult Swim special opening to cover the Squidbillies them. Daniel has a similar voice, but also does alot of lows and highs.
Changed my mind about the vocals - in an ironic way, the generic pop elements in this make it more unique giving it contrast to the more technical djentish kinda elements. Anyway, there are a lot worse things that can be done with music than including derivitive alt. rock.
@6Hellbilly6Deluxe6 dude it shocked me the first time as well and believe me I felt the same but its worth gnawing over it a little more, trust me! Circles is not a perfect band but they have so many virtues
The vocalist isn't bad, he's pretty good. He's just really out of place with the way the band sounds (mainly if the whole song sounded like the first minute or so). Sounds pretty badass so far though.
Shame about the chorus or this song would be damn near flawless. The intro and the verses are just insane. Wonder if they play some pieces through a pitch shifter. Sounds like it at times.
@slayerfan2010 Djent isnt a genre. It's the sound of a guitar tone when playing aggressively picked four-note power chords. Ask any band that is classified as djent and that's what they'll say. It's just "progressive agressive metal" according to Misha.
@slayerfan2010 But that's not true. Most singers are naturally able to sing, and just learn to improve their technique, whereas learning to scream is a completely new technique to be learned from scratch.
@Provis55 - Excuse me while I go laugh at you behind your back. *walks a few feet away* AHAHAHAHAHAHa! *walks back* His voice is just FINE. T_T If ya don't like it, there are 'more fish in the sea' (if you know what I mean). I'd like to see you TRY to do better (and fail).
If it wasn't for their amazingly generic song Beautiful Fascination I would say these guys are pretty damn awesome. Hopefully they don't make anymore of that typical, simple core music, and stick with this unique proggy djent music.
I think the vocals are bad, but instrumental wise its really good and i agree with Akin, ALOT of Djent metal bands kinda get ruined cause of bad singing...but are good instrumental wise.
@ChaQuiseman vildhjarta doesnt, as an exception, jus sayin :D I like vildhjarta's clean vocals more than ANY, because of their originality, they have metal "energy"...
Ha dude I started on like light rock, then I jumped to like numetal/rapcore/alternative then alternative metal/christian metal then Thrash metal/metalcore then posthardcore/emocore then heavy metal/ medolic metal/ progressive metal then experimental/industrial and now djent. Ha dude I feel like I've leveled up or something.
@iAmTheYan You're getting it all wrong again,I haven't meant something new concerning this band, but in general with everything,not only music.For your information I have listened to alot of music not concerning Metal,and as I can see you are mostly into metal.You should listen to some soul,blues,jazz,even pop music,it will do you no harm man. :D
GREAT!!!!!! This song is awesome!!!
Congratulations on making it to the grand final of Eurovision song contest 2023!
Amazing! the "Coheed and Cambria"- like voice just brings something new to this genre!
obviously the best "djent" band on the side of Periphery!!! no dissing to the other competitors, but Circles' melodies are so round and catchy, total hit!!!! and I love their style; they play djent, and they're somewhat closer to rock than metal. so innovative!!!!!
This song is so amazing it´s one of my favorite in the wolrd and i have around 5000 songs! So it is really nice! Go on!
Don't know what you all are talking about...the vocals are what makes this unique. Meshuggah and Periphery already exist.
What a voice! It's insane what notes he can hit!
love the music, love the vocals even more!!!!
Im trying to figure out how to favorite a video. this is the first time its been this good
@nuclearvoodoo I think it sounds pretty awesome! the elctronica in the beginning is amazing. I'm deffinately going to check out your new stuff!
New school prog guitars with old school prog vocals? Sign me the fuck up.
one band i would love to see live argh
@Nuclearsalt I agree, if this type of music has a distinct style and tone, and people refer to it as djent, then it is a subgenre, or style if you will. Meanings of words do in fact change, such as how djent now refers to a style of prog metal as opposed to a sound a guitar makes
so much better than the later version, oh, oh...
@slayerfan2010 I agree, but in the same sense it takes a lot more to do both. Especially when it's one vocalist. I prefer the mix of both, adds as much atmosphere as the music itself.

this is sooooooo goooood
All you nay-sayers need to stop sippin on that haterade and open your ears! These guys are better than most of the other bands in this genre. This is what good music sounds like.
@DarthSalazar True. I'm not a meshuggah fan but the standard tuning for a 9 string would be C#.
I swear, the vocals kind of sound like Sonny Moore. And Sonny Moore is Skrillex, electronic artist, and electronic in here sounds like his work.
4:00 'such a gay tattoo the flames still trapped behind the wall' hahahahaha XD nah seriously though these guys are awesome
Check out In Search of Sight, from my home town and featured on an Adult Swim special opening to cover the Squidbillies them. Daniel has a similar voice, but also does alot of lows and highs.
i dig the intro
@OceanOfOilFilms Meshuggah tune down a half step, so he was right, it would be C2 Standard.
I was feeling more of an alterbridge vox, with 9inch nailes style playing.
Vocals remind me of coheed and cambria actually
@quarentine99 Almost everything I listen to has some form of screaming or growling, so this is a welcomed change of pace.
check out the interbeing they are pretty good (if you don't mind harsh vocals)
I dig the vocalist, Sounds to me very Dream Theater-ish. I love it. Don't change a fucking thing.
Many djent and/or groove metal bands should just be instrumental. SOOOOOOOO GOOD though!
Changed my mind about the vocals - in an ironic way, the generic pop elements in this make it more unique giving it contrast to the more technical djentish kinda elements. Anyway, there are a lot worse things that can be done with music than including derivitive alt. rock.
O.O good song ;)
@6Hellbilly6Deluxe6 dude it shocked me the first time as well and believe me I felt the same but its worth gnawing over it a little more, trust me! Circles is not a perfect band but they have so many virtues
*nodding head*
Vocals...
*Clicking another link*
The vocalist isn't bad, he's pretty good. He's just really out of place with the way the band sounds (mainly if the whole song sounded like the first minute or so). Sounds pretty badass so far though.
@igoflairait do they have this album going onto the major market places (zune,itunes) anytime soon?
@palmmute99 Periphery - Msdoppertunity
that is fairly hardcore no singing at all but not too much electronica in the mix
@dimmub69 I don't know for a fact what these guys tune to, but I know that similar bands tune to Drop Ab (A flat) on a 7 string.
Shame about the chorus or this song would be damn near flawless. The intro and the verses are just insane. Wonder if they play some pieces through a pitch shifter. Sounds like it at times.
i freakin love this band. Can anyone please please tell me what they are tuned to?? guitars? PLEEASE :D
@AndyAngelZ well, Misha didn't tell me anything..but this is fucking great!
@slayerfan2010 Djent isnt a genre. It's the sound of a guitar tone when playing aggressively picked four-note power chords. Ask any band that is classified as djent and that's what they'll say. It's just "progressive agressive metal" according to Misha.
nice stuff
@TheJake3
So you mean someone like Mike Patton!!!
@slayerfan2010
But that's not true. Most singers are naturally able to sing, and just learn to improve their technique, whereas learning to scream is a completely new technique to be learned from scratch.
Misha told me to listen to this
@Klayperson
That's not really true, most decent screamers are able to vary their vocals quite a lot.
So much potential, yet they're not delivering quite as well as they should be throughout their music. Sad.
Sounds like Faith No More djent reincarnated... thumbs up
thumbs up i've you found this vid because bulb said so
Where can I buy a million copies?
only narrow minded people can complain about these awesome vocals
@Provis55 - Excuse me while I go laugh at you behind your back. *walks a few feet away* AHAHAHAHAHAHa! *walks back* His voice is just FINE. T_T If ya don't like it, there are 'more fish in the sea' (if you know what I mean). I'd like to see you TRY to do better (and fail).

How was Salvia? I haven't heard too many good things about it recently.
@masterd000 i dont think djent has a set way of being made. they are doing there own style. and i think it works
I think all djent bands could be improved with growls. This one is no exception
Where can i download this song at?!
@igoflairait but, at the same time, much more than that.
They also have this song on their new album compass right? or is that already an older album xD
The singer reminds me of Benji Webbe from Skindred.
@cantripvox why you gotta be hatin' on haterade? that's my favorite flavor...
@Niallphillips I agree. I like the vocals, but it isn't mixed right. Sounds like it should be in a different song. That's frustrating.
Can we get an instrumental version?
Why does every "djent" group think that they need to emulate Periphery's vocalist?
@DanteLeblanc C# Standard and go to Rondo music. Agile makes 9 strings now lol
@LOOOL811
uhmmm....i was referring to djent tone not genre...
Singer sounds like Howard Jones.
@iAmTheYan mmmmnaaaa i think that his voice is original
@JoshuaUndead its abit more coheed and cambria in my opionoin vocal wise
protest the hero turned djent?
More? Please?
I think the vocals are bad, but instrumental wise its really good and i agree with Akin, ALOT of Djent metal bands kinda get ruined cause of bad singing...but are good instrumental wise.
Mike Patten or what.
buena banda
Damn, thats some cool shit.
so it's like... if meshuggah and dubstep had a baby?
@ChaQuiseman vildhjarta doesnt, as an exception, jus sayin :D
I like vildhjarta's clean vocals more than ANY, because of their originality, they have metal "energy"...
fuck i love this song!
Download link doesn't work dude! I'm eager to get my hands on this somehow.
This is DJENT? o.o
@slayerfan2010 tesseract ohhhhh yeaaaaaahhh
lyrics somewhere? plz, someone help me out!
@berts1405 haha I checked their Myspace because bulb said so
techno metal
Sounds like a heavier Incubus to me...
1980's Power metal + Djent = wtf
I mean, it's good he's just mixed in waaaay to loud
Aussie Pride :D
@sketchkids Hahahahhah. Dude I'm gonna do that.
Sounds like luke jaeger could have played this ^^
@JoshuaUndead Dream Theater + Into Eternity
Vocals sound like alterbridge
anyone can help me with the download link ?????? I is not got no where: S
no to the vocals, but I like the electro metal intro
2 completely different bands lol( both "djenty" /prog but both doing 2 different things with the music
Ha dude I started on like light rock, then I jumped to like numetal/rapcore/alternative then alternative metal/christian metal then Thrash metal/metalcore then posthardcore/emocore then heavy metal/ medolic metal/ progressive metal then experimental/industrial and now djent. Ha dude I feel like I've leveled up or something.
It's fuckin awesome, that's all I can say!
@iAmTheYan You're getting it all wrong again,I haven't meant something new concerning this band, but in general with everything,not only music.For your information I have listened to alot of music not concerning Metal,and
as I can see you are mostly into metal.You should listen to some soul,blues,jazz,even pop music,it will do you no harm man. :D
Dream Theater+ Meshuggah .
