Heard this already, I liked it a lot.

Spencer sounds A LOT better then on Periphery's self titled.

They're missing 4 other people to do the trash cans.

overload of gay

I'm one hundred eleven less than perfection!!!

Who the fuck is Spencer Sotelo, Matt Halpern, Misha Mansoor, Taylor Larson and Will Donnelly?

so fucking bad lololol

wow two of my favorite bands, stoked to hear this

Ok, I really expected that to be an awful but that cover was fucking great. Spencer sounds quite like Corey and if he sounds like that on the new album then I'm looking forward to it.

Whoa that was awesome.

cover's awesome
not sure if it's technically periphery but yeah

lmfao

I was blown away by how good can Spencer imitate Corey's voice. Even though it's a solid cover, and song by itself, I got past that period in my life when I thought Slipknot sounded hardcore and interesting. So....Periphery, why?

Eh it's ok

it's pretty much the same as the original, i don't see the point on making this cover

Leatherneck said it right. I'd rather hear the original. This is stupid

They said they did it for the shits an giggles but it's not really a cover by periphery. More so half of periphery an some other people lol.

i bet this is terrible

It's kind of scary how much he sounds like Corey.

Pretty damn good, diggin how Spencer has progressed.

Don't care for this song any more, but holy shitfuck I can't believe how well Spencer imitates Corey's vocals. I didn't even know that kind of a scream was within his current range. Sounds good, makes me look forward to hearing him on the new album even more.

wow, I thought it would be fun, but that was just bad

not bad

i bet this is terrible

Isn't bad at all, but as other users have said you may as well listen to the original... since they haven't put a spin on it at all.

Actually really good

might be better than the original. The guitar just has a bit more crunch. Although overall it does
play it a bit safely

This is pretty cool. It's not really officially "Periphery", which I think kind of makes this better. It's just them having some fun.

holy shit this is so much fun

Who the fuck is Spencer Sotelo, Matt Halpern, Misha Mansoor, Taylor Larson and Will Donnelly?

I found this fucking awesome

Vocals occasionally remind me of Corey, but the screams/harsher vox are worse here.

Hey a shitty band covering another shitty band!

Hmph, it was okay, I guess. I respect Slipknot since they were a huge part of my younger years but
Periphery... Not so much.

FUKN M/

Not bad, they definitely do justice to the original.

haha this is hysterical

Bahaha. Better than the original, and surprisingly not terrible. And he sounds a lot like Corey.

uhhhh what?

Solid and kickass as hell

'They're missing 4 other people to do the trash cans.' Lol.

i like this

this would be the sort of thing i'd +1 on google+ if i used google+ and also if i didn't care what others thot of me XD

This is awesome!

Is this band worth checking out?

Yeah i really dont see the point in covering slipknot especially for a band that seemed promising

meh

they're also missing one guy standing awkwardly by a turntable adding sweet wikka-wikkas

Shit covers shit

The vocals are pretty sick.

Next up: Justin Bieber covers Brokencyde

This actually isn't bad.

Has to be dubstep or it's gay

shitty band covers shitty band, what could go wrong?

The part where it doesn't suck as much as one would think

Hey a shitty band covering another shitty band!

Fun

"Yeah i really dont see the point in covering slipknot especially for a band that seemed promising"

Having fun? Because they felt like it? Psh.

VinVal had fun once. It was horrible.

Yea wasnt much fun at all ='(

Also have no idea what you talkin

This song was exactly what my boring day needed

But yah band coulda found a better band to cover or just not cover at all and release a new track but i digress

... or they could do what they feel like doing? Idk just spitballin here.

Werd

Slipknot > Periphery
the cover wasn't all that bad though

I mean don't get me wrong.. I do realize the gravity of the situation here. But there's really no point in questioning it now that the deed is done... all we can do is hope they make a quick recovery.

Just like theres no point in being butthurt because you saw a comment you didnt like, pass by state your opinion and continue with your day

band is fun, not overly serious, therefore cover makes sense. taylor larsen is a friend of theirs who is recording their new album. dude's studio is legit as fuck.

fuck that was awesome, Spencer is sounding great

"Just like theres no point in being butthurt because you saw a comment you didnt like, pass by state your opinion and continue with your day"

This is actually true and very good advice (no sarcasm). My apologies.. agree to disagree and we can both move on :D

hah he does sound a lot like corey. this doesn't sound that different from the original.

SPONCE has sick vocal range, he only occasionally displays it but it would definitely be welcome in future Riffery releases.

I like the vocals. Other than that I just posted it because it seemed interesting.

Touche sir

love those comments

talented band. they work very hard at what they do and can cover whatever they want to. i cover songs everyday.

surprisingly awesome

*bmth

Misha, Spencer, and Matt: Lol we're bored - And we're tired - we just got off tour with DT! And we're in the studio at 3am. What should we do??

Misha: - Let's do a funny cover

Matt: Let's cover something ridiculous

Spencer: Let's cover Slipknot!

Misha & Matt: ............

Misha, Matt, and Spencer: Lol okay.


*2 DAYS LATER*

Periphery Fan Type 1: "They covered Slipknot? song effin sucks, Slipknot sucks. But Spencer's vox are cool he should sing like that on the new album! Rooooar haha"

Periphery Fan Type 2: "I used to like Periphery before they had their new singer. Realistically, I liked Periphery before their so-called genre became irritatingly shatty and famous and due to the new-wave of progressive Periphertrolling, I stop liking the band as soon as it becomes uncool to like them on internet forums. I am irrelevant and take up space to express myself, lol but I don't admit this to myself! All the thoughts in my brain are already posted by other prominent forum critics"

Periphery Fan Type 3: *Doesn't say anything and has been following Periphery since '06 7-string forums/soundclick/myspace. Is pissed that band has inherited an incredibly shatty American fan-base due to their record label affiliations and can't wait for the new album to come out so that as a fan, they can finally put 6 years of dedicated waste to rest; OR, if the new album is awesome, they can continue to be a closet fan while the brainless djentopian-meathead association dies away. Is slightly pretentious and knows this, but prefers to keep this to themselves*

Periphery Fan #4: "PERIPHERY + SLIPKNOT + MY FAVORITE 2 BANDS! THIS COVER SHOULD BE ON THE NEW ALBUM PRONTO!"

Other non-Fan #5: Tesseract, but fack shat and die Elliot.

Other non-Fan #6: Daniel Ädel and Vilhelm Bladin are kvlt.




Misha, Matt, and Spencer: wtf what did we do?

Misha Matt, and Spencer: ..............

Misha, Matt, and Spencer: lol

lol

So much effort in that comment.

long comments are kvlt

Fucking lol

surprisingly awesome [2]

theres a crazy tl;dr in here

also


"sounds pretty dead on. least it's not bmth's cover of eyeless."

OH PLEASE! that would be amazing

I actually like this one a bit more than the original...

Hospital, have you heard the BMTH cover?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkC_zGLawVY

I really like the last minute of it. Rest of it is meh

was lolbad

weird, almost sounds the same.

зле

I acctually like spencers voice for a change, would be nice if he sounded more like this for their second album.

I wasn't expecting much, but I was pretty damn impressed. Wonder what a cover of Eyeless by them would be like.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOcEVZsuVuY

Best Slipknot cover.

Periphery is just a cover of Meshuggah lol

sounds exactly like Slipknot, there was literally no point in doing this cover. Periphery is so damn queer

periphery suck

they suck live too

The cover was cool IMO, if not too mechanical.

All Periphery is mechanical

There wasn't supposed to be a serious point in this... it was for their own entertainment and some of their fans are getting a kick out of it, I don't see why people are hating on them for doing this. Who cares if it sounds just like the original?

whyyyyyyyyy?

that wasn't bad. spencer doesn't sound like a vag.

Spencer fucking killed it.

Periphery's good live bro

m/ br00talz

faggots covering faggots

k behemoth fan^

As much as Slipknot sucks Corey Taylor used to do some pretty decent aggressive vocals with a lot more energy then other dudes out there, so I'll give them that.

Corey Taylor sucks live

this band is shit slipknot is way better than these guys

corey taylor > this guy with his balls in a vise

^ lol

Speaking of Slipknot, have you guys heard the mashup of "Psychosocial" and Justin Beiber's "Baby"?

Perhaps the greatest thing ever.

Perhaps the oldest thing ever

Yeah there was a news article about that forever ago. Regardless, it is scary how well they mix together.
