I’m so glad you mention SJH! He’s been popping in my head this entire thread. “At Home…” is fucking glorious, among what I’ve heard of his other stuff

I mean I'm talking more in the Staley/Cobain/Cornell and Palumbo/Rickly/Pryor/Way variety than guys like Tyler Connolly (yuck at this point) or Austin Winkler if that's what you were assuming. But I'd imagine SJH could scratch an emotional itch.

EDIT: Wasn't expecting him to sound THAT powerful, damn. I'm used to older vocalists sounding really soft.

Glassjaw/Thursday/Get Up Kids/MCR rather than Hinder or Theory of a Deadman since Sint seems to think I mean the latter

I enjoyed most of it, though I agree it's all over the place. Better than III. If I'm going to djent out these days, I'd rather listen to Invent Animate or Blueshift.

lol P3 makes sound like a respectable record made by cool people with a mature sense of humour and better things to do than trainwreck their own marriages over manipulative guitar sex. one of the worst albums ever made.

It's their best, at least past the first two really edgy tracks. I try to not let those factor in when Marigold, Absolomb, Lune, and the others overshadow them anyway. Spencer REALLY makes Absolomb in particular.

I think Lune kind of blows, but Absolomb is top tier Periphery.

Fair but to me Lune's great, the soaring melodies and heartfelt lyricism do it for me. The drum patterns in the early goings are deceptively complicated and lines like that really sell Matt Halpern as a drummer for me.

Thanks Nobuo is still the best contribution to be had here.

Definitely not up to PIV standards but still pretty great.

This thread was wild to catch up upon.



Anyway the 80s was the best decade for music, modern music is ruined by quantising, autotune, loudness wars and is dumbed down to fuck (search key changes for songs that hit number one)

Thanks Nobuo and Wax Wings are the best, also do people actually say Marigold is overrated?

How the fuck is Marigold piss? It's one of their best written, most cohesive and concise songs they've ever written. I understand if it doesn't hit for you. But piss???

I don't think Marigold is piss, but I do skip it 9/10 times so I'd say it just doesn't do anything for me. P3 as a whole has become like that for me
