I know it's a simple thing but I LOVE when the whole band does the slow head-bang. Teamwork, boys..... teamwork.
Same
synchronized headbang is of utter importance. This must be practiced
The Badassity level of this song should be a matter of deep study in universities around the world
couldn't have said it better myself
it should be included in the library of congress national music registry as a significant influential important piece of music in American history.
badassery
should be an unit of measurement, like "wow man, your tattoos are like a million thebadthings"
i guess volumetric badassity would then be measured in thebadthings for cubic meter, is that correct? "dude there's 100 tBT / m³ in this vodka bottle"
Remember this riff from Misha's recording tutorials.
Stephen Mongiovi Exactly :D
+Stephen Mongiovi likewise... I actually bought an audio interface after seeing that vid
+Stephen Mongiovi while the others remeber this riff from... the fucking MESHUGGAH
+Stephen Mongiovi ahahhahah yas!!!
+Rob Theeuwes I did too, I bought the Focusrite Scarlett after seeing it.
Spencer sure knows how to take off and put on his jacket really fast.
He screams one off and, gently soothes one on.
This may be one of the best periphery songs i've come across, holy fuck.
I thing it is the best song
It's definitely a really good one, that being said, it's also all about personal tastes and opinion :)
Personally I love this band to bones, but Alpha & Omega didn't make it to me, compared to the two first albums that I find both simply amazing. But that's just me, and this is still great stuff of course ! The Bad Thing might be my favourite one in this double album.
All this to say: I would rather say their best song is Racecar.
Imo everything that makes Periphery such a great band can be found in Racecar, from the very beginning to the very ending of it. It's just an insanely well-written song that has such a smooth and strong flow, but you know ... maybe that's just me haha :D
Other songs that I would qualify of "just" truely excellent are Ow My Feelings, Buttersnips, Have A Blast, Facepalm Mute, Luck As A Constant, Froggin' Bullfish and Zero.
TL;DR
All of their music is awesome anyways, these guys just rock ! uh, I mean, they djent :>
well said! I will check all of those songs out, the only one out of the ones mentions that i listened to was alpha and omega. should be good afternoon im sure.
Prayer Position FTW \m/
Everything on Periphery 3 FTW* \m/
Just performed this song with my band and won, it was legendary
0:36 Vsauce, Michael here
This is the best comment I've read all month.
you won
We can't play only zeroes and call it an entirely new genre.... Or can we? *music starts playing*
(just a joke plz no h9)
XTimmo92 *shows nollys face* Meansauce , Michael here
Yeah the first time I saw him in a video I legitimately could not till if he was vsauce.
4:18-4:49 is brilliant; spencer really is an amazing vocalist
+klblackstar that part is just crazy awesome!
+klblackstar Yeah, I got a Chester Bennington vibe out of it personally. Very atmospheric.
+klblackstar thats when i actually enjoy his cleans
+elegy69 4:18-4:49 is not clean vocals.
Periphery's songs are always SO good by the end.
That pinch harmonic popped so many cherries
At 3:00?
John Filice mark’s harmonics are pure savagery
My kid told me about 8 years ago "you've got to check out periphery" but I didn't really dig very deep on em until this last year,, and now they're my latly favorite. Such amazing flavor they are..
man was early on the scene goddam
@@funnyperson4027 early? Bro that is 2016 or so
0:36 The Bad Nolly
Tyler McBride True m8
I think Nolly is secretly evil and all these songs portray his real side. >:) *Laughing in Nolly*
it's always the quiet ones
Adam Nolly Getbad
Vsauce negative
I wasn't really keen on Djent as a metal genre but Periphery and Meshuggah changed my opinion . I don't see the reason why people say Djent sucks . Djent is awesome !
Ikr?
+Mr Napalm The thing is that, for every Meshuggah or Periphery, we get seventy extremely generic bands that only care about chugging strings repeatedly and interrupting compasses abruptly like they're doing very complex things like the adults do. And they can only fall under the Djent name, so yeah.
+Mr Napalm you check out Tesseract and the contortionist they mix in some post rock sounds
+jcerq 70 is being generous lol
+Mr Napalm djent is basically polyrythmic music with 7 and 8 strings. i see it as the evolution of music. Heck, Jazz fusion uses the same type of songwriting sometimes.
Didn't know that Misha was Jewish until the other day. I hope he spells it "djewish".
+Charles Carr Ahhh :D
+Charles Carr xdd
+Charles Carr If you know anything about Kabbalah, all the references in their music point to that at least one of them must be :P
+Laz Addams how interesting
+Charles Carr i wonder if he's Yeminite?
That breakdown gives me chills every single time I listen to this song.
That grove breakdown? Yeah, same reaction for me. The tonality there is so good, it's scary.
Lol Nolly looks so brutal rock star at 0:36, yet he's usually the shy british guy with glasses XD
+FrustratedTurtle your profile picture is legit as fuck lol, wish they were still together :/
+Zympt Wait Porcupine Tree separated?:( Damn that sucks
they all went to do their own thing Dx
+Zympt no shit? makes me sad :(
Same :/
Lyrics
Sometimes there's a crack in the world that I can peer through,
And see it for what it really is.
There’s an ugly face staring back at demons of everyone,
They draw the hatred from inside of me.
There were times at the top of the Earth that I wish that I could throw,
Everyone and everything.
Watch surrounding symphonies of the hypocrites,
Abating in the thought of it.
Severed dreams of all the weak - quenching thirst inside of me,
And the scream it holds the key - unlocking this for all to see
Fly past the trees, ascend to holy air and breathe
Far from the leaves, transcend these earthly boundaries
Fly past the trees, ascend to holy air and breathe
Far from the leaves, transcend the fucking boundaries
And is it this desire that you're looking for?
Or is insanity is knocking at your door?
And give me just a peace and surely you will find -
Everything is better on the other side.
But can you look within and find what is in store?
This life is but a scream that has become your whore
It's tearing a hole inside, you'll bury your life
Sometimes there's a hole in the Earth that I can slip through,
To get away from the twisting of tongues.
There was a love I could greet without tearing up,
Feel the desire creeping over me.
There were times at the top of the Earth that I wish that I could throw,
Everyone and everything.
Watch surrounding symphonies of the hypocrites,
Abating in the sight of it.
I’d like a reason just to help them bleed.
Give me a reason, come on give it to me.
Give me a reason, fucking give me a reason.
Ah-Ah give me a reason, come on give it to me.
Fly past the trees,
Far from the leaves,
Fly past the trees, ascend to holy air and breathe
Far from the leaves, transcend the earthly boundaries
And is it this desire that you're looking for?
Or is insanity just knocking at your door?
And give me just some peace and surely you will find -
Everything is better on the other side.
But can you look within and find what is in store?
This life is but a scream that has become your whore,
It's tearing a hole inside, you'll bury your life
Yeah, there’s a crack in the Earth, there’s a crack in the Earth, yeah
I’d like a reason just to help them bleed.
Give me a reason, come on give it to me.
Thanks, but strangely enough for a modern metal band, you can actually understand the vocalist! 😁👍
2:39 - 3:22 is hands down one of my favourite breakdowns of ALL time. Drop A 0's, quick galloping bursts on the kicks, that fuckin china, using octaves, NASTY ass pinches and finally dissonance. Filth.
Man I can't believe it's been 9 years since this came out
This was the first Periphery song I had ever heard. Its been like a year since I first heard them on a Spotify playlist. While Spotify is mostly cancer, I will be forever grateful for the day I heard about these guys.
The first song I ever heard from them was CVRCH BVRNER and I liked it and tried to listen to other songs but didn’t like his vocals. Then a year later I checked out some songs again to see if I had changed my mind and I 100% did and was so baffled I didn’t like his vocals back then
@@jaydenjbryant8665took a while for the vocals to grow on me too now I get it 💯 dude's amazing...
There are few bands that share the same level of raw talent and creativity that Periphery has. Every member of this band uses that talent to its fullest extent and it shows. And its a shame that more people dont see that. A lot of people dont like metal because of the screaming and they don't see past that. But if you pay attention to the music, you'll find that it is much more than "angry". Most modern music (pop, rap, country and even a lot of metal bands these days) are just so processed and conformed into make the most profitible sound, that i think they lose sight of what music is about. Music is art, it's about expressing yourself and making things that you love. Periphery gets that. They are so focused on what they want to do. To them it doesnt matter. Like their music or not, they will continue to make the music that they love because they love doing it. And that is part of the reason why they hold such a high magnitude in my mind. Also Juggernaut : Alpha/Omega is an absolute masterpiece from top to bottom. The story telling and imagery throughout the album is incredible. Not to mention every single instrument is played in a certain way to enhance that story telling and it is absolutly beautiful. This will forever be one of my all time favorite albums and bands ever. Thank you for being you, Periphery.🤘
How can you be soo damn right?
Periphery .
@@bartolomeotucci4653 exactly
Well said!👍
So true bro
Mark Holcomb is the demi God of periphery!
He should do some Pantene ads
Much love guys ❤ it's helped me every day
Are we not going to say anything about Nolly's face at 0:36?
Connor Carfrae wow...pure evil
Connor Carfrae nolly the thall
+Connor Carfrae what about Nolly's face at 0:36? lol
+Connor Carfrae THIS WEEK ON: NOLLY'S FUCKIN PISSED
+Josh H British is a race? :o
4:32 Misha is like "got ya bro"
lol.
He’s such a legend.!❤
I used to be a professional drummer and educator but had to give it up for a more lucrative career when my son was born. The change was hard enough that, not only do I not play anymore, I don't even listen to music anymore. With all that being said, I'll be damned if I don't listen to this song about once a month even still.
2023 - still one the best periphery songs
A masterpiece is how to write metal that slaps like a truck, without playing a million miles an hour
Everyone needs to watch this in 1.25 speed right now. Cant unhear such high octane awesomeness
+Nick Link I've noticed that most songs actually sound more awesome at 1.25.
3:51 - 4:48 may actually be my favourite segment of a song ever
Jordan Payne 2 years later... you still think so?
Same.
it is so fucking good
I still think the high note in Ragnarok is better.
@@matt2.019 Yeah that makes me question my sexuality
Friend's bachelor party last night... I am so hungover right now... I'm just listening to Periphery to get through this nasty hellride. #coolstorybro
on P3, there's a song called Prayer Position that is about being painfully hungover haha
wait for real? Is it an interpretation from you or is it a fact?
+OHG1997 “Prayer Position,” an angular, rhythmically complex screamer about the aftermath of binging. “It’s basically an angry hangover song,” the vocalist explains. “It’s about paying for the fun you’ve had and dealing with the effects of it.”
Daniel Kaszonyi Thanks for the answer! Can you give me link of where you found the quote?
OHG1997 www.revolvermag.com/artist-artist-interview/peripherys-spencer-sotelo-it-was-pretty-rough-patch/22284
Here you go. :)
Spencer Sotelo he's vibre unique and soft cleans, awesome, Periphery high class of Djent/progressive metal/metalcore, nice harmonics
Nolly has to be one of my favorite bassists of all time. unique bass play quality and a passionate stage presence indeed.
That first riff gets me every time
Fuck yeah! Favourite song on omega 😍😍😍😍
Rebeckah Stevens Wow. This thread has been up for 3 weeks and there aren't any 15 year old boys going "PLEASE MARRY ME OMG!!!!"
NaughtyNickers If I didn't have a girlfriend I might've
That would be less disturbing if I wasn't significantly older than 15 😳
Rebeckah Stevens don't marry me, it would be a bad thing, my 15th birthday's over anyways ;) .. But you're (partially) right, this and "Stranger Things" are the best cracks in the earth..!
Rebeckah Stevens I agree, this and Priestess.
totally forgot this video was filmed at Corona in Montréal until I saw them last night at the same venue!
I was there show when they filmed this! I remember I didn't quite know the lyrics yet and was yelling FLYYING PAASTAAAA TREEEESSS
I have so much repect for these guys, they are such an inspiration and they also write KICKASS music!
Not anymore sadly :(
This has become my new favorite metal song!!!
Coming back to this after a while I think whoever was handling the lights is a god
The whole video is awesome but I mean take a look at the end. The blue and red lights have been flashing more less randomly and steadily since 4:49, but it is still gripping bc of the violence the red beams deliver, at 5:02 they line up with the bass drum to break into that massive scream climax with only dry flashes that reinforce the guitar lines. Also shout-out to the cameras with those empowering low angles during all this final segment, and that almost frightening performance delivered by Spencer
Just wow
i think jeff holcomb does the lights? not sure. he’s their documentary maker, cameraman, etc.
Nolly looking hard af @ 0:36
lol yeah
fucking possessed is what that look is.
ds3ralli this is when dj0nt it you mate
speechless.. the last melodic is stunning and feel goosebumps
Periphery in a full Tesseract worship mode ;)
amjan Fuck you're right!
And thats a bad thing how??
That Altered State album was a piece of shit. The instrumentals were decent, but I couldn't get past the fact that the lead singer has a voice higher than most girls have.
Evil Toad If your only objection is that the voice is 'higher than most girls have', I'm not so sure you know what you're talking about.
Evil Toad Couldn't agree more, hated the vocals and it ruined everything for me.
THAT IS ONE HEAVY BREAKDOWN AT 2:53
alot of this video was shot at the summit music hall show they did in denver it was such an insane show and in alot of the shots spencer has the camera facing the crowd is all the love CO has for these guys it was so awesome being a part of this awesome moment in time
This band really cemented a special place in my heart!
2019 and still here! 🤘
Misha Mansoor is a songwriting god. Nothing short of Mozart, Bach or Zimmer.
Lol
I think he is a lot more versatile than any of those composers but he is standing on their shoulders. I'd buy a Misha Mansoor album of symphonies.
One of the best songs they're written! LOVE THAT SHIT!
The Meshuggah spirit is strong in this one.
Why isn't this posted on any of the official channels? It would get so many more views
Def one of their best songs.
The LYRICS of each and every song are just undescribably good, true....and many other heartwarming words. just lovin it
My gosh that scream at 5:03 X.X
Wes Lee *G I V E I T T O M E*
This band is just all around awesome. Every member is fantastic at their instrument and the recording quality is fucking amazing. I'll be honest when I listened to periphery last year I wasn't a fan of the vocals but they really grew on me and now I love them. I r8 poriferee a 11/10 n wood rekomend 2 ppl
Periphery has the best lights shows of any band!
What an amazing song. Love this album.
I saw them in Denver in August and I went absolutely mad when they played this. It was truly incredible. They sounded so much better and cleaner than the other bands, too. It's easy to tell that they're all audiophiles.
4:21 gets me every time
Sad to see such a skilled and great-sounding bassist leave Periphery, but Nolly's mixes speak for themselves; glad he's still sharing his talents to the world with his engineering and mixing.
I need to see these guys live. Looks like a great show.
+ElektrobanK if you get the chance, go. I saw them on their UK tour in November with Veil of Maya, and they absolutely rocked the shit out of the venue.
0:35 - 0:37 ----> Nolly's so Badass \m/
That drop at 2:53...dayyumm!!
cooment are : 10% YEAH MAN ! THIS IS BADASS !! 90% see the face of nolly at 0:36 !
0:36 oh ma la faccia incazzata di Nolly l’hai vista? 🤣
Thanks Periphery! Best Epileptic FIT ever!
Periphery is literally one of my favorite ' newer' bands!
You guys are freaking amazing. This song!!!!! ♡♡♡♡ Purely incredible! Keep it up! :)
Felicitaciones, ¡esto está excelente!
This song is incredible all along it give me chills
un sérieux travail technique, bravo toute l'équipe, longue vie!
they had a Breakdown,Solo, and a Sing-a-long... shows how complete this song is ♥
Dude, so much action on this video, best song ever... I hope this guys come to Chile, South America, Djenty Periphery fans over here !!
+Daniel Calderon Tienen que puro venir wn!!!
*So much wow...and Mrak's moves are topps!*
After listening this song i understood what periphery is !!!!
Killer stuff \m/
I so relate to the lyrics, great job guys!
This song is a very good thing
I can't wait to see this live at Download Festival in 2 weeks. Such a good live song.
It's not even just the technical playing. It's the beats, man. It's the fucking beats.
Am I seeing 3 guitarist on that stage? Who do they think they are? Iron Maiden?
We all know how this song was recorded........ We follow you Misha Mansoor. ;)
Great jobs guys, solid, heavy.... And tight as f***** Best Regards Thomas
One of my fav songs
One of their best songs indeed!
BEST PERIPHERY SONG!
Wow, what an atmospheric video, like it.
It's like everything awesome about every metal/hardcore/metalcore band all rolled into one... So this is what metal perfection sounds like!
this one goes hard
Oh emm effing gee... Completely insane. Love this. Thank you, Rick Beato. 🍻🤘💪
I love the part with all those Gold Medals!
🏅🏆🏅
In love with that breakdown
spencer is just amazing in this song :)
Noel Rambo one of my fav vocalists of all time haha right up there with Randy Blythe, Andrew Greene, Rody Walker, etc etc
3:23 what a riff !!!!
+gongvdo Listen to Periphery 1/2
+Joe yeah i listened before this track out
Bang-up album in my collection, thanks for vid
This guy's scream along with the heaviness of the rest of the band is so cool it's not even funny
That was awesome
Enormissime , c'est de la folie ce morceau, j'adore!!!
Great video
Damn, this song gives me chills everytime!
One of the best live music videos I have ever seen!
Badass song. My son just got a PRS Mark Holcomb signature.
Best song and best album of 2015 if you ask me...
One of the best songs of Periphery . One of the few songs who "kitten meow singing" but don't hurt my virility . Cheers from France !!
If this is the bad thing just imagine how will be the good one...
Everyone that keeps trying to find a reason not to like it STOP just enjoy good music and stop trying to compare music just listen and enjoy if it's not for you just move on
They never show the drummers face.../?????
