riffs

Good stuff.

The drums sound like absolute shit.
It's a shame too, as Halpern has got to be one of the best drummers in the genre atm.
Also, it seems as if the vocals get worse and worse with every release.

Dang...first two songs released from this album I liked a lot. Second two, not so much.

One of the better singles they've released so far. Diggin them riffs

Like most of the other new tracks this gets better and better as it goes on

Vox are so weak.

Boring.

Got bored a minute in. Band could be loads better if spencer could write a distinct melody and cut the
whininess out of his vocals

4/10

Spencer just verbal diarrheas all over this band. He really holds these guys back.

Vocals haven't changed as much as I thought they would

His natural harsh vox weren't bad, but that deathcore-style layering on parts of the vox was really lulzy and it's something that is virtually never justifiable because of how lame it always ends up sounding. Song itself was pretty disjointed and suffered from a lack of smooth/appropriate transitions between styles. You can't just copy/paste a power chorus onto the end of a heavy part all willy nilly like that, guys.

I actually like this one a lot.

yessss! ¡!

this actually instrumentally wasn't too bad but Spencer yet again completely ruins it.

Why does the production sound so muffled compared to other 3 tracks they've released? Plus it seems the kick drum is completely missing from the mix on my monitors.

Great song tho! Still hyped as fuck for both albums. Based on the album preview that got leaked it seems Alpha is the more catchy of the two. Omega seems more heavy.

I can't enjoy this band because this vocalist cant right good melodies for shit. It detracts from the music so bad.

This one isn't doing it for me neither. I've only liked one song out of the four released. I watched their studio recap they released and they even stated they toned everything instrumentaly just to make the vocals more front and center. Horrible idea.

' they even stated they toned everything instrumentaly just to make the vocals more front and center. Horrible idea.'

Not really, considering it's a concept album the vocals need to take center stage.

these don't need to... they're not bad but I just wish they weren't so high pitched and whiny at times

the worst vox

cheese

spencer is so fucking annoying i cant stand his singing, christ.

can they stop doing this whole making songs thing please

As someone who has never enjoyed Periphery and never liked Spencer's vocals, I have liked every song they have released so far.

idk i think these last few songs have been better that anything they have released. They used to be unlistenable for me, now theyre actually tolerable. Spencer is definately the most improved in the band.

Its shit

this chorus is pretty cringeworthy

I have never understood all the hate for Periphery. Can someone explain to me what is so bad about Spencer's vocals? He's extremely versatile - he can singer higher than most metal vocalists, and in my opinion his screams sound great. The guitarists write awesome riffs, throw in some bluesy parts, and all you guys do is complain that it all sucks. And no, the production isn't shit, it's actually pretty freakin good. Somebody, please explain what I'm missing.

djent

yoooo you have 112 comments and the other guy as 109 so i believe you

^wow pls try harder homeboy

Plz

I feel like they're killing the hype by releasing too many tracks leading up to its release(s).

Still, this single was way better than the last.

Not bad. First track I've enjoyed so far.

There were no standout parts in any of the released songs.

Would be ok if it weren't for the vocals.

vocalist sounds like a whiny, bootleg Rody Walker

WOOOOOOO
are people finally over this band?

Their debut had some really neat songs, but they've seemed so stale and generic afterwards

"vocalist sounds like a whiny, bootleg Rody Walker"

it's funny at parts I hear chester bennington lmao

"Their debut had some really neat songs, but they've seemed so stale and generic afterwards"

but they reached commercial success so they keep doing the same thing or worse

Another great song. Killer chorus. Love the strat solo.

I'm happy.

It was pretty solid until Spencer started singing.

Was k, I'll reserve total judgement until this comes out.

after a few listens this is def my favorite song they released so far

This is just bad. Surprised anyone enjoys this honestly.

This band went downhill fast after Bois and Murphy left the band.

"that deathcore-style layering on parts of the vox was really lulzy and it's something that is virtually never justifiable because of how lame it always ends up sounding."

YES

Bad as they are, this is the least-offensive song so far to my ears. But then again they've pretty much released the whole album at this point soooooooooo

17 tracks between the two albums, 4 songs is nbd.

"This band went downhill fast after Bois and Murphy left the band. "

i mean, ok, but its not like they had any influence on the writing

I've got to stop reading comments on here. It's not healthy to feel this much hatred welling up inside.

maybe it's not the comments that are the problem

~they will never give a shit about how much you dislike them~

They're a group of people who feel fortunate for what they have so it doesn't matter who hates them as long as they can keep doing what they love.

Definitely the best song from this album so far. I feel like I'm one of the few people who don't mind Spencer's vocals, too. He's by no means my favourite vocalist, but there are far worse singers out there in metal (*coughandersfridencough*)

Eh it's not bad

Another bad track. Maybe if Spencer was anywhere near a decent vocalist it would be okay. I dunno how this
chump is still in the band, he's like the Adam Levine of the 'metal' world.

Holy s*** this doesn't suck. First track I've enjoyed since The Scourge.

I wonder when the keyboard warriors will get sick of saying "Spencer sucks" on anything Periphery related.

so much bad

Yeah I don't get all the hatred against Spencer either, it should be redirected to the band as a whole. :D

Jokes aside I have zero interest into listening to this
