Periphery Periphery IV: Hail Stan
As someone who has always enjoyed "other" djent or djent inspired artists, periphery have always being a band that sort of bothered me, mostly because of the piss poor vocals, this is proving to be the best work periphery have done yet, again mostly because the vocals are the best they have ever been (still not what id call "good") - having Mikee of Sikth is also a great thing!

What a mess, Aric Importa is woefully underused - was hoping for a decent firey punk album but its a poor mans RATM with heinous lyrics and misguided directions. Avoid.
