yeah ins same exact thing for me. seeing bulb songs i knew and the old demos getting the full treatment blew my mind. and i had never heard anything like that at all. misha is such a creative guy with so many ideas, especially back then.
i actually checked out his bulb album from a few years ago. really dug it a lot. lots of variety and some old bulb demoes again punched up that sound amazing. also some really nice electronic and post-rocky kinda stuff. very fun and engaging listen.

P4-P1-Juggernaut-P5-A Pale White Dot-P2-P3 for me I think.
I do like all of them though, but P3 felt really lackluster to outside of 4-5 great songs.
P2 is great but I rarely listen to songs from it.
It just feels like they were searching themselves after P1, which is itself still incredibly awesome and I will accept no revisionist history.

@futures nailed it. that’s exactly what was so fun about that era, the surprise of hearing a demo or SoundCloud clip being included into a full fledge song. Huge smile on my face when I heard Masamune (the moonstar) for the first time. Loved finding all the Easter eggs in the past albums

“Yea idk what exactly is different about P4, but it's the only album of theirs I return to (I just did actually and it's still so good!), but much of it must be Spencer's vocal delivery. On that record I'm never annoyed of him” - bingo
Bulb material was great cause no Spencer yeah
Lmao I’ll stop dunking on the poor lad now 😂

I feel like Spencer sounds so different on this

Album is OK but I need to give it more listens.
The last album from these dudes that really hooked me and stood out was P3. There's been some solid tracks here and there but...

P3 is poop.
This has continued to grow on me far more than I believed was possible on my first two listens. Probably gonna have to bump my rating again. Better than P5 and P3, doubt it will overtake anything else though.

P3 is my least favorite by a long shot.
This record is actually sweet

I really miss the huge vocal hooks+ melodic sections of PII, like Scarlet or the second part in Ragnarok. That was peak P for me.

Second part of Ragnarok is Periphery's absolute peak.
EDIT: Just checked, it's not. But that riff introducing the second part s sick.

They peaked at Juggernauts for me, personally. I love how experimental those albums were, but they also had more sense of direction too. They weren't perfect, but they did hit a sweet spot (especially on Omega). These past couple of albums have just been "Periphery by the numbers" in my opinion. I'd love them to burn the recipe book and write it all from scratch, take a completely new approach to the formula.
P1 could do with a complete re-recording. That album is a mess. I get the hype but it feels so disjointed and I just see it as Bulb demos (plus friends). I'd love to see the whole band put their spin on it now, especially Spence.
Periphery 1.2: Ah shii, here we go again

I absolutely love PI but for for obvious nostalgic reasons

For me P1 is clearly better than everything after P2, in its current state

Chris Barretto P1 era was peak agreed

I've made fun of this band for years......but I think I'm gonna give this a shot. Might do a discog run tbh. Futures made me wanna give them a proper chance.
