    1:00-1:51 was like a 50-second-long drum fill that I didn't want to end. The way he weaves those toms and snare hits into the music is hypnotic. Wow.

      it fucks me up watching matt play this song because I'm still in that awkward kinda-sorta learning theory phase as a musician so I'm sitting here like "what the fuck how do I count this". like they asked matt to fill in a minute of the song and he was like "yeah one sec lemme warm up" and nolly was like ctrl+r when he sat behind the kit
      goddamn I love periphery

    • @HugoStiglitz88
      @HugoStiglitz88 7 місяців тому

      Yea to me that's the hardest part of the song by a mile. Like I thought about learning it and know a couple of the beats but I just know that part alone might take me a month at least
      That's why I focus on his easier stuff like 22 faces, blood eagle, or flatline which sound hard to a layman but they're actually super easy (for periphery songs)

      Uvuvwevwevwe Onyetenyevwe Ugwemuhwem Osas he probably has a press where he puts a shirt in it and then it makes a deep v neck for any shirt. Makes it as precise as possible. Or maybe he made it uneven so he had to keep cutting it further and further down until he got it right

    I love periphery but I hate their vocals. I could listen to their music as instrumentals all day.

      It seems you have no idea of peripherys guitar playing. Play it and you will see that this is no 0 1 0 0 1 0 playing

      You should probably look up the tabs to this song, to see how wrong you are. Also, of course he's going to space, it's prog, so his playing is more out there, and intended to be a little dissonant.
