Periphery - "Blood Eagle" - Reaction

[@ianlauerastroreacts3495]

You NEED to do Satellites - I would say it's their magnum opus, combining amazing atmosphere, and the music flows so seamlessly.

[@metal-adjacent]

Agreed. Although they have a lot of those.

[@nickwiederhold]

Yes, please!

[@florinarchfiend2592]

Magnum opus is a big word for a generally mythical band

[@krumpetkrumbs2040]

Periphery - Satellites Nowhere near as heavy as Blood Eagle, but one of their deepest songs.

[@ethanbrinkman3401]

"He has a really wild range" You have no idea....

[@speckon]

Stranger Things should definitely be the next one! But do the live version where they play in a guitar center! And of course Satellites! This is Spencer (the vocalist) in his absolute peak!

[@KurisuOkami]

My favorite band. This song is on the more heavy side but Periphery have songs ranging from grindcore to pure pop ballads. They are literally able to do everything.

[@DutchmanX69]

wait they have a grindcore song? like full on Cattle Decapitation mode?

[@KurisuOkami]

@@DutchmanX69 Not full on Cattle decap, but songs like Mk Ultra and CHVRCH BVRNER get pretty damn close sound wise.

[@DutchmanX69]

@@KurisuOkami oh ok i was curious

[@tarkus1056]

@@KurisuOkami I don't want to be that guy, but they have nothing close to Grindcore, which is an ultrafast branch of Hardcore Punk incorporating elements of Death Metal. Those songs you mentioned are more close to Mathcore, specifically bands like The Dillinger Escape Plan. Check out the songs Prancer and When I Lost My Bet and you'll see the similarities (Misha is a big DEP fan).

[@KurisuOkami]

@@tarkus1056 I'm very aware of who TDEP are.

[@anoceanbetweenus89]

Y’all would absolutely love satellites. That is the most epic song in Spencer’s (vocalist) catalogue. He sings almost completely clean in that song and it showcases the insane range this guy has on those pipes.

[@ethanbatts]

Listens to one of the heaviest songs in the entire genre. 'they're cute!' 😂

[@herrpye]

been enjoying your choices, ladies. When you get into this band, you're gonna be blown away by Spencer's singing. He's one of the best in the biz. Satellites is actually a perfect juxtaposition to this one. Keep up the good work!

[@EnergeticxCheese]

You guys should definitely do their song Reptile. It’s 16 minutes but I promise you won’t get bored it has so many change ups

[@crysalistwo189]

Truth to that. Reptile looked boring because of it’s length but I never realized I just listened to all of it.

[@danawakes2001]

Matthew didn’t read the room clearly

[@cliffsharp1771]

You guys should totally react to the Reptile studio playthrough

[@980Logan]

Please do another periphery!! You gotta get the full taste of them and experience the cleaner/more melodic stuff from them. All is great :)

[@vehmaamtb]

We want Stranger Things next!

[@ZuccAF]

Yooooo! This would be sick

[@ZuccAF]

Would love to see meshuggah aswell on channel

[@jessemace7589]

Stranger things and the bad thing but please reptile do reptile sometime. Make it a 2 parter if you have to but thats a true journey

[@Posirep]

no. stranger things is a song tbat makes zero sense without context

[@ZuccAF]

@@Posirep how so?

[@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385]

I've been listening to Periphery since 2010. You have no Idea what your missing. Periphery is an adventure !!!🙂

[@dandi-setiawan622]

My favorite band 😍

[@JiggleJammer]

We want all of the periphery. Do it.

[@wearemartiansss]

The kings of Prog Metal!!

[@imcrazedandconfused]

I'm glad you picked one of the heavier songs. Great band, great range, songwriting kind of unique. Fun to see you enjoying them! Have a great weekend, Ladies!

[@ShavidDerf]

The Summer Jam is really good. Off their Clear EP. Lots of good stuff off albums prior to Hail Stan, as well.

[@Bled_x]

If you want to get a good sense of Periphery's sense of humor, check out their video for Scarlet.

[@sebastiancontreras3637]

Need to watch Scarlet, Ragnarok and Bad Thing. Also check out their studio performance of Lune.

[@Djcimofficial]

Meshuggah next (and please not bleed, love the song but they have so many better songs) if you want the pioneers of Djent! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@1984xeper]

Would say that Blood Eagle is their heaviest song so ... a lot to react to ;-)

[@mkennedy319]

Life long Periphery fan, very glad you checked them out. Satellites will probably hook you for good. If you want an amazing body of work that will floor you, Reptile is for you. PS: If you don't know what an actual blood eagle is, do NOT look it up (but do tho)

[@terrafirma7120]

Love this reaction. I'd love to see you two react to Lucid Planet's 'Organic Hard Drive' They are pushing the boundaries in all the right ways

[@yota8325]

Spiritbox circle with me

[@ShavidDerf]

Do their song Lune. Just to experience their versatility

[@cloudrise]

Erised would have been my pick for this band! Awesome to see ya'll check them out though!

[@sebala164]

I agree, it's a good pick. Or luck as a constant from the same album.

[@cgm-hk1et]

their best song

[@andrewwillismusic]

please react to satellites as well. its a total contrast to blood eagle and its stunning

[@JMDrummer]

Yeah Blood eagle is actually one of their more brutal songs.. but they have a wide array of sound (Heavy Metal core to Electronic).. "Marigold" would be a good mid range song.. or the softer side with "Satellites" or "Lune"! but Reptile showcases pretty much all their sides in one song (16 min long).. you won't be disappointed in any song you choose tbh!! Amazing musicians with thematic style lyrics.. great rabbit hole to explore!!!

[@demonicrebellion6903]

I think I know the videos you two were referencing with the eyelashes lol. Awesome reaction ladies.

[@demonicrebellion6903]

A Blood eagle is a gruesome punishment from nordic culture.

[@notdynomonkey]

YA satellites is a polar opposite of this and a feature of Spencer's vocal range👌

[@KillerwhaleTRX]

You just have to look at vikings and see how a blood eagle is performed!!!

[@andrewwhite8638]

Should watch the Scarlet video. Probably more your taste, and def more fun and lighthearted haha

[@maxviking3210]

Pioneers of Djent absolutely. Great band and great reaction. But Djent was invented by Meshuggah.. but.. funnily Meshuggah, being the founding fathers of djent, never say they play djent.. they call it extreme experimental metal.. anyway blood eagle, a viking way of killing soneone.. not in the nicest way so if someone was killed that way they really pissed someone off 😂

[@rorytribbet6424]

Alright which one of you guys made them listen to this lol 💀

[@whatisahandleplz]

If you wanna hear Spencers range, do Satellites next. It'll catch you off guard lol

[@frankieragnarok8437]

Sleep token - Take me back to Eden

[@adammalone5677]

Reptile and Stranger Things next

[@astrictus7123]

If videos help there's one for scarlet which was a popular 1. As well as Make total destroy.

[@darkphoenix2]

Periphery IV is probably their best album overall but I don't think it's the best introduction to the band. Blood Eagle is super heavy...Reptile is A LOT, and Satellites is, to me, like eating a fancy chocolate cake before dinner. I think it's good to get more familiar with a band before hearing some of their best songs. Then again, this doesn't make a whole lot of sense because so many other songs are great in their own ways. I dunno, check out Stranger Things.

[@demondrive147]

this song is a total savage : D you'd better went with Satellites

[@goku260]

If your only gunna watch periphery music videos then your missing out..... LISTEN TO THE AUDIO TRACKS!!!!!!!!!!

[@Kabz8]

Satellites would have been the pick. Incredible track. This song is not as dynamic, its more of a pure aggression song rather than a journey like Satellites.

[@boyeyob1]

You should have picked satellites lol especially cuz it's 10x lighter

[@metal-adjacent]

Should have done satellites tbh

[@metal-adjacent]

I take this back. Do all of them lol

[@jeffsienkiewicz7119]

Matt halpern is a god

[@CrazyIrishmen7]

This is NOT a good song to start with lol amazing song, but one of their heaviest.

[@SirDIVVI]

React to the new Vildhjarta single, när de du älskar kommer tillbaka från de döda, for some good djent

[@melsinclair1234]

Hey girls check out dimash new video out now 10 mins ,ago BE WITH ME, ITS BRILLIANT, go to his channel bless mel

[@lucifer616161]

Is ari super high?

[@dfwherbie8814]

Smh @ shorty on the right. Ah, nvm y’all from florida. Lol

[@chasekemp6915]

Do Reptile!!

[@thyweebhub]

If you guys think this song is good then you should listen to reptile

[@dariiofernando]

A RI

[@ThirstyTunaTaco]

Still no reaction to the best female metal band Nemophila - Dissension :( SO DISAPPOINTED

[@jajwarehouse1]

I like Periphery and this song is cool, and I am all for djent, but I like Amon Amarth's "Blood Eagle" better.

[@DiscoStu12081983]

Great musicians, but boring as hell live. Thought that could be because I saw them with Meshuggah and Devin Townsend. 🤷‍♂️

[@ItsBabaEro]

You need to go to a headlining show. I went to a show in early 2020 and they were amazing. So much energy.
