    Misha, Matt, Jake, Mark & Nolly: We will try not to tell our fans about the Juggernaut concept, or in a very superficial way.
    Spencer: Bitch please...

      I believe this is because it's more of Spencer's story and they'd rather leave it for him to share! I'm really happy he did because I had NO idea and it really changes the albums for me!

      Not that they make the music I love the most, that's not the case (they are only ONE of my favorites), but they're all good, smart people with an incredible sense of humor.

You are a vocal GOD!!! And to "All Thing Periphery" please upload more videos like those!! Awesome channel!! Thanks a lot!!

      he was fucking cool when they were in vegas. We found him after a show on the street looking for a lighter lol. and we had a chat with him and his friends. Then instead of sending us on or way he invited us to hang with him at the bar. So we walked for half an hour to the cosmopolitan and hung at the chandalier bar for like 2 hours. very cool experience.

      I'd watch it as a Netflix show for sure but the music is such an integral part of it, I'd actually love to see it as some kind of musical. I've personally never seen a musical in this genre and I think it'd be a good way to bring the story to life without losing the songs behind it

    I love Spencer. Such a down to earth dude with the voice of gold. I also was binge watching American Horror story and I could've swore that Juggernaut Omega was kinda inspired by Season 2 in the Asylum. Everything kinda fit perfectly.
    And as much I love spencer to the moon and back, his "how to expand your range" tip is actually horrible. That's not how you learn to sing lol.

  • @hypha1
    @hypha1 6 років тому +5

    I just thought of something, for the Juggernaut story and how the mc maid a deal with the spirit of the underworld to be reborn, I thought it was wierd that there was no "catch" to the deal, so if you listen to the end song "stranger things" the ending for it is the same for the beginning of "The Black Minute" but it's played reversed in the black minute. So that makes me think that the "catch" was that he has to be reborn in his past life, live through all the torture and pain again just to try to stop his love from getting killed, only then will he be able to move on to another life. Just a theory though.

    That Thonhill Studios gig you guys had filmed in 2011 is so good. Can't understand why it seems to get such little promotion/attention. Quite the epic singing performance. Maybe not like 100% perfect but I can't see anyone else in the world doing anywhere near as good a job. It's super impressive.

      So someone on the Stranger Things team is obviously a Periphery fan, i mean the frickin name of the show is the final song on the album, a little kid is taken away at a young age and is experimented on, tries to escape. In simplified plotting terms they are kind of identical in a lot of ways, of course the actual events that happen are different man i cant help but think its not a coincidence lmao

    I should elaborate. I’ve met you twice and you’re so kind, it’s really wonderful. That, and Juggernaut came out right after I lost a friend to suicide, and having that new music to brighten the darkness was more than I could have hoped for. Juggernaut is a little hard to listen to as a result sometimes, but still, periphery makes some of the best music I’ve ever heard. You guys are an inspiration.

    What about the ending of Juggernaut? Stranger Things ends with the same theme the records starts with.
    I always thought that it means the protagonist is reborn into the same life, into the same cult and the story loops itself.

    • @TundraCH
      @TundraCH 8 років тому +1

      Its left open ended to where its up to the listener to decide what happens, but at the same time leaves room for the story to continue, very well written, would be awesome if a sequel happened cause it would be about Jugg in "heaven" perhaps so we may get some softer tunes
