Hey I’m Josh from Adelaide, South Australia. I'm a proud father of 3 and passionate about heavy music.
I was the bass player for post-hardcore/alternative rock group Capulet from 2004-2012, releasing an album, EP and several demos.
Capulet were signed to Red Bull and the Taperjean Music Group alongside Closure in Moscow and The Mission in Motion.
Highlights of my music career were playing with amazing bands like Anberlin, Emery, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, Haste the Day, Awaken I Am, and touring Australia several times.
I wasn’t the most technical bass player, but lived for performing on stage. I have always loved the process of song writing and the visual art that accompanies music.

Lyrics
It feels so wrong stuck down in the web we weave
Tear apart the way we are and do it so well
Our peace of mind left in pieces
Holding your head in hands and the world is watching today
Feeling like an empty room
Nothing ever fits, but I will find my way
Resume
Who am I staring at?
All I’ve wanted and more, living beyond the door
Right behind the front door
Painting the patterns I’ve become within my eyes
Murals fade, but lessons they sow
And as the paths we wander have shown, our hearts will grow
Beauty wades within the sound soul
I’ve said so long to sanity
Picked apart the way I am, but living to tell
The surgery of mending pieces is hanging over me and the world is watching today
This is still life
Make it mine
I used to do it all the time
Dust off your shoulders through it
Yeah this is still life
Make it mine
I used to do it all the time
Sick of living low
I’ve gotta let the feeling go
Sick of living low
I’ve gotta pick me off the floor
Stay in the upright
One second
One day
One step
Just keep moving
Keep your head up high
One second
One day
One step
You’re not on your own
I’m feeling like an empty room
Nothing ever fits, but I will find my way
Resume
Who am I staring at?
All I’ve wanted and more, living beyond the door
Right behind the front door
Must I lay here as a product of the world I never leave
I can see
My life is crashing down
It’s been a while
My mind is racing for a million miles
The machine is turning me
Just imagine the damage that’s done when you fly with wax wings in the sun
The past is present, I’m not in denial
It’s holding on like it’s an infant child
The machines are turning me

[@wmc128]

When your band has 3 lead guitarists your music is beyond the outer limits.

[@TheAluvisify]

Especially when one can produce and another can compose electronic music.

[@jaakezzz_G]

you could say their music is beyond the periphery

[@walldog9724]

@@jaakezzz_G i like what you did there

[@amirhosseinrjp5762]

The end of this song is such a masterpiece

[@RageKira886]

*every part

[@mylife1221]

this song is ridiculous. the ending is like the endings of ragnarok, lune and luck as a constant all combined. i love the way spencer breaks the note off into a scream, it's so beautiful

[@metal-adjacent]

Well said

[@HKisPro]

Damn, pretty spot on

[@mylife1221]

@@HKisPro it's all the things I like the most about periphery in one song. idk how they did it

[@HKisPro]

@@mylife1221 where does P5 rank for you in their albums? I have a hard time deciding and they are my favorite band by a lot

[@mylife1221]

@DeFi CyaNide I'm the same as you, i really can't decide. this is probably my third favourite album from them. P2 is my fav, with P3, P5, Omega, P4 and Alpha coming after it. i can't comment on P1 yet as I haven't actually listened to it - I'm enjoying the other albums too much. I'll definitely listen to P1 real soon though

[@davidmarold48]

Dracul Gras is by far my favorite song on the album, although the entire thing is a masterpiece from front to back 🔥🤘

[@killkennybeats]

Can we just all appreciate how amazing the control and range the vocalist has especially in this track?! Like jeez he should get an award for the vocals on this

[@AveragePizzaEnjoyer5]

Yeah, Spence is a beast. He’s gotten so much better compared to his earlier performances and just keeps on improving; love to see it.

[@nxsa6565]

An actual breakdown to that ending must be insane…the feeling is so strong.

[@YZFMX256]

This song is amazing. I think it’s one of, if not, Spencer’s beat vocal performance. Favorite songs from the album are wax wings, dracul gras, thanks nobuo, zagreus and wildfire.

[@akiobeatsofficial]

The last section of this song is truly heavenly

[@IcarusNadir]

The riff at the start is a blast but that part from after the 5 minute mark is absolutely insane. What a band.

[@markhodgkinson7244]

Album of the Year for me so far 👌🏻

[@metal-adjacent]

This album is hot fire.

[@HiroBrown]

Love that 9/8 section! Spencer’s vocals really blew me away on this one too

[@gSWG3R]

That whacky middle section is in 9/8 timing. Such a clever piece

[@rondeezy_thepancakeslayer1242]

I love the last track. So much nostalgia.

[@Shiratuu]

This song is beautiful, I love it

[@christians2975]

The new closure in Moscow song is SICK. so is this song

[@johng92]

I think we all love the musicality of Periphery, that often we neglect the lyricism of Spencer. Of course his voice is amazing. But I was really touched by this songs message.

[@HKisPro]

It's cool how these metal reaction communities aren't toxic

[@Kelly.sapphire]

Whole album is awesome. Atropos and Wildfire were bangers live. Everything is Fine! will rip you apart.

[@codyallen9188]

Song is very well put together love the rifts and melodies!

[@Roguenjosh]

Yeah this and wildfire are my favourites

[@user-ut7si3dl8b]

best song in this masterpiece album

[@skeeeeeezyyy]

That’s a beautiful song right there

[@gtrmadman4127]

I have this album on repeat from release , silhouettes my least favourite song although I still like it , ‘ THANKS NOBUO’ , ‘DRACUL GRAS ‘ are also lethal tunes never mind the first 4 songs on the album , absolute masterpiece of 2023

[@lostinlucidity]

Spencers lyric writing is amazing

[@Chrisleftyguitar]

I gotta argue, you can't compare wax wings with wildfire. Let me explain, lol Wildfire is a cool mess, but a mess nonetheless. That song is a bunch of wildly different ideas mashed together, and there you go. It's like shock prog, it hits you with something different when you least expected. Wax wings, on the other hand, is a harmonious masterpiece of a lot going on, in every direction while still sounding perfectly put together. Each part flows perfectly into the next. Flawless production and nothing over the top while extremely being over the top 😂🫶🏾

[@allanLJoseph]

I mean this is nothing new. P1/p2 and alpha omega are littered with these types of tracks

[@jaakezzz_G]

Wildfire sucks lol, this song is great though. Also who the hell is Tim? Sounds like nothing but Spencer.

[@gabejbn]

Sucks?? Wild take but ok

[@charlesb1602]

Extremely L take

[@mirkecWii]

I hate it when songs that suck are played weekly in my car :(

[@jaredfalk7701]
