PERIPHERY - Ragnarok

[@mikescanlan4653]

I'm going to say it. Get mad all you want. Spencer Sotelo is one of the greatest singers of all time. No matter the genre. His vocal range is so rediculously wide. He is brutal lows and extremely beautiful highs. I'm sorry if you dont agree with me, but in one song his voice changes more than in some singers entire careers. Spencer is by far the perfect person for Periphery. I wish this band nothing but luck.

[@VectorSan]

Hell yeah dude! Spencer has got some killer skill! And he's getting better with each album they write. He's drastically improved since the Self Titled album and with what i heard from him live last year in october, He's KILLING it.

[@mikescanlan4653]

Vector-San Yea definetly, I mean he was a great singer always, but his hole yelling/screaming/whateverthefuck style vocals were hard to listen to in the first album..atleast for me. He has improved greatly. Such a talented singer.

[@TDWP53]

His vocals on Racecar are fucking brilliant dude, if you haven't already checked it out then do it. Also Jetpacks Was Yes!

[@mikepaling476]

Good on you mate. He's definitely number one of my top 3 favourites.

[@toximan2008]

I agree. Anyone who at least doesn't realize that is too insecure in their "metal sexuality" because metal should only have guttural vocals, endless blastbeats and infinite chugs.

[@S3lvah]

The high notes the singer reaches in the second half of this song... That's something you don't hear very often. Amazingly powerful.

[@ephilbin]

The power of Sotelo at its finest.

[@basickrecords]

Listening to this in the office, great track!

[@LOBSTERUZIVERT]

Boss must love you.

[@mauricioyepez3082]

i broke everything in my office listening to this

[@zakky3ackz]

Can you get actually concentrated on your work in such condition? lol

[@mreddyfeelgood]

@@zakky3ackz Man look its basick records so I think it was an hidden message I tried to shoot toi periphery 5 years ago dont you think its interresting?

[@deceiver444]

Have to acknowledge these guys are pretty much in a league of their own.

[@kriskizlyk]

I can't listen to anything else since 2012...nothing compares...

[@kriskizlyk]

Awesome, thank you for the suggestion! Have you heard Intervals (The Voice album) orThe Contortionist?!?

[@kriskizlyk]

Great find! Thank you!

[@mementomori2839]

I'd honestly group volumes with them

[@kriskizlyk]

Link?

[@travisayers3166]

As a fan of metal for over a decade this has got to be my #1 favorite song. The entire trilogy is amazing but the near-instrumental aspect of this song with the transition to clean vocals wrecks my soul. NEVER STOP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING!

[@PatrickStevensbassguitar]

that final note Spencer hits at the end of this song is the most epic thing i've ever heard!

[@gabypereyra6086]

Yeeeeah man, really was something epic that I never heard from any other singer of this genre. Spencer is an alien :)

[@utfan971]

You may be right, but if you like high vocal notes, you should check out Outline In Color - Beautiful Secrets. The note at the end of the second chorus is at least as badass as the one here.

[@Beowaffle42]

Check out The Scourge by Periphery, and THAT final high note!

[@PatrickStevensbassguitar]

one of my favorite songs from Juggernaut!

[@a3uu]

this song is a goddamn masterpiece.

[@espabuser]

Spencer's voice gives me chills for days, he's one of my biggest idols as a singer

[@gnryeah]

I think the thing I love most about this music video is seen at about 3:20 onwards. You can just see how much these guys love what they do. They don't care about what they're labelled as - they just do what they want to do and they love every second of it.

[@TheCrimsonCat89]

LOVE IT when clean vocals are added in metal songs. Allows wonderful contrast to grace the ears

[@chrono5108]

Gotta love Matt just rocking on the tiny ass drum set. Fucking legend.

[@Tunturisorsa]

+Evan Brisson Matt is just class A example of how size does not matter!

[@alexandrepiche5609]

+Evan Brisson how is this a tiny ass drum set ?

[@xSouthernDiscomfortx]

+Rui Carneiro I would suck it

[@frantic299]

+Alexandre Piché For a lot of metal/progressive/hard rock guys it is a small set. A snare, 2 floor toms and a bass. I wouldn't call this a tiny ass set but given the genre and what the drumsets tend to look like in that genre it is a smallish set.

[@stevenhayes5404]

Doesn't help that he's 6'9" tall so anything looks small compared to him

[@takethesechains]

I have to be honest, this band is an acquired taste. 2 years ago first time I heard them I though they sounded like complete garbage, just last week I gave them another shot and this band is the only thing giving me energy to get through my last weeks of school. I've been listening to them non stop since last week. I love this fucking band now.

[@NickBEADG]

I'm in the same boat lol

[@Lildoc911]

It was the opposite for me. First time I heard them years ago I was all in.

[@matthewstark913]

this comment still holds true. i was the same way and now can't stray away from them

[@MrKaratejoe]

Off in the distance we can see, shining, clear, our demise to be. We're not listening to ourselves. BEST LYRICS EVER !!!

[@digital-alchemist]

This is some badass progressive metal right here

[@pashul1n]

+ElektrobanK its not progressive metal , its very hard djent

[@digital-alchemist]

+pashul1n "Djent" is a controversial term for a "sub-genre" of progressive metal. Most bands that are labeled as "djent" don't use the term. I don't know about Periphery, but I imagine they could care less about labels. People are way too concerned with labeling music. I'd rather just listen and enjoy. So what I should have said is: "This is some badass metal" and left it at that. Because at least there is no disputing that Periphery is metal. Have a nice day.

[@pashul1n]

ok :)

[@MeeksOpry]

Idiots that don't know music made djent a label and it's not.

[@ellisjhsullivan7504]

I dont think the problem so much is that 'Djent' is not a label. Because it is a label, the problem is that the 'idiots' don't really have any specifications as to what Djent actually is. Some people think throwing in a downtuned 8 instantly makes it Djent and tbh that's bullshit. Anyhow, the label doesn't really matter because either way Periphery kick ass xD

[@yourself88xbl]

The way this song plays on the melodic idea from the begining of the album and then mixes the main theme of the song back in with that transition gives that intro riff such a unique sound compared to the begining. These little details are what keeps me coming back.

[@ConstanceFairleight]

Love the on gear cam and the layering. AWESOME!!!

[@smabacon]

I love how Sponce takes his in ear monitors out for the high bit. Gives me goosebumps every time

[@FearTheReaPeRr]

I hate that this word has been given such a shitty stigma and been stripped of its actual meaning, but that segment at 2:29 has so much edge and raw tension you can almost feel the air get thicker as the atmospheric anxiety peaks. God I love this song.

[@davidhyatt2369]

Sounded somewhat like the solo for Schism by Tool

[@BenjaminKuruga]

Actually, the story of this song relates much to the original meaning of the word.

[@mhaikz.machine89]

Bro i first heard this song from the video drum play through of Matt their drummer. & literally i was doing something else that time, im not watching the video just listening to it... then sure it comes!! this fvcking part of the song went straight to my head & never left until now. this literally shows u dont have to be a lord shredder of guitar to make a masterpiece. all u need is creativity!

[@foofighters3110]

I love Periphery. I'm a Djentleman. Congratulation First visit to Japan.

[@FireballJutsu98]

That last “somewhere in time” always gives me goosebumps, bros vocal range is just ridiculous

[@smokedscorpionV1]

Seeing Matt wear those Periphery gym shorts makes me want to get my own pair.

[@summeronio9751]

ClayMoore I think it's funny that they wear their own merch sometimes

[@thejrfanclub628]

over the years ive listened to periphery and them continuing to release great music that i jam daily, this song will forever be my favorite it is just soo dynamically badass.

[@LorcanWard]

I can't wait to see Periphery live again to hear this song.

[@AnfrersAyyLmao]

Spencer vocals are A M A Z I N G.

[@eclipser734]

I got to meet everyone one of these guys at a small show they did earlier this year, and they are the nicest guys imaginable. all super down to earth and eager to talk with their fans. Periphery FTW.

[@bhoff5492]

This is such a genuine live performance. It's awesome to see such down to Earth musicians just enjoying themselves on stage.

[@zrollins]

2:20 will forever be one of my favorite'ests of all-time.

[@DavidBankston]

I gotta say I love all the parts Jake writes/plays for all these guys songs

[@suomik1988]

There's a light side and a dark side. Meshuggah is the dark side. Periphery is the light side.

[@Aozora333]

Periphery is light and dark. At least, that's what they portray. Why? Because to truly admire the light you need the dark to compare it to

[@ufukinwotm8434]

so deep i fell in and drowned

[@growlandroll]

Actually, Meshuggah would be the generator... I'd say Vildhjarta/Hummanity's Last Breath and Periphery/Tesseract

[@fuzzfire]

Meshuggah has been doing this shit since the 90's man, definitely the generator/creator

[@Boogerslov]

Equilibrium mang

[@MrBuckner592]

So glad people are still listening to this

[@joshfeenai8363]

The harmonics at 1:51 send shivers down my spine.

[@edwin20096]

I praise the last minute and half periphery,thank you ,greatly.you have spoken from the heart,and mind correlated.

[@TheBonzobonzo]

This is the one! The pinnacle of any periphery fans night! The tears, the goosebumps, the moshing just the whole experience of this song is unmatched!!

[@AthleticAesthetix]

And god said "let there be light" and Periphery was formed.

[@RealMcNills]

AthleticAesthetix well, we can't have light without the bulb

[@TorqueBow]

Nick MIlls You single-handedly provided the best comment on KZbin. Thank You. COMC.

[@RealMcNills]

Torque Bow danke

[@XxTRIPPINGxxGUITARxX]

no one is going to mention their spng titles as such?

[@thejrfanclub628]

+AthleticAesthetix lol at first I thought your name ironically said "AthleticAtheistx" agreed though Periphery is on a different level and always have been.

[@dominickguerra189]

Saw this live. Life complete

[@MishaMansoor]

Thanks dude!!

[@iGenius98]

Just listen to yourself and the night will go away.. because the day is shining, clear for you somewhere in time

[@TorqueBow]

***** um, are these the lyrics? Or something completely different? O.o

[@iGenius98]

not the lyrics.. not completely different tho..

[@JoshuaSmith-ws1ef]

Aren't they from Muramasa? Or the last song of P2 ?

[@iGenius98]

all three of those songs have similar lyrics at some points

[@iGenius98]

Joshua Smith all three of those songs have similar lyrics at some point

[@Trildin]

In love with this song

[@SameBasicRiff]

this better be playing over every single action scene in the new thor movie

[@nocturne.nocturnal]

+SameBasicRiff agreed xD

[@TundraCH]

Would actually make it the best marvel movie to date

[@dalton-at-work]

way to badass for that shit

[@hoodbrotown]

TundraL5Z that isn't saying a lot

[@TundraCH]

+Phijkchu_Rockstar I do agree with you but, i do like Winter Soldier

[@BrianTheDrummer9192]

One of the best song ever made in my opinion v_v

[@Nysing]

2:22 and on might just be the best part of this album.

[@willepille123]

Hes voice is goddamn incredible! Hat off for this band, love them.

[@IIESPD00DII]

Still one of their best songs by a mile. The riffs, the tone, Spencer

[@agnosoul]

The chills when watching this make me feel like the hair on my arms is going to rip out. There's nothing better in this world than amazing artists having the time of their lives in the company of fans!

[@ch0desk11]

For as simple as this video is, It gives just as much as chills as it does just listening to them

[@heathco90]

Years later and I still come back to this song when I need to be in a better head space. This was a god send.

[@andym8311]

This is one of the most badass music videos I've ever seen for one of the most badass songs I've ever heard

[@marklego3087]

Love this song and this video! Nice mix of aggresion/raw emotion.

[@reneniclasen353]

This song is brilliant.

[@zacharyfarrell9654]

Praise the lord for this band

[@tommygottgrr]

I would really like Matt's shorts... Not necessarily the ones he was wearing, but I wouldn't complain ;) Can't get enough of Periphery, please keep it coming!

[@tblev97]

Nolly's bass cam gets me so hype haha

[@josephwashington2096]

It's funny cause he's got the weakest stage presence of them all haha.

[@TheCrumpers53]

Joseph Washington I think they all could do better but hell if i was playing the stuff they were id wouldnt be able to move.

[@TheDemonPowder]

***** Yeah, what the fuck. Seems to me that Nolly's the most active on stage where I've seen him live. Unless you count Misha, Mark, and Jake walking back and forth on stage.

[@gabrielefavazza]

I listen this yesterday in live, was awesome!!

[@bromanultra6364]

This is one of the best songs ever written.

[@alonzozimucha9249]

I really loved the screamed vocals on this album. more than the other albums.

[@TMmodify]

Tupac Shakur they're awesome, but P3 topped them all on that point.

[@avn6556]

I only listen for the clean vocals

[@tommyisquitecool1916]

3:52 JESUS

[@aebious8886]

and yet *SpEnCeR iS tRaSh*

[@taakeyourtime]

Spencer invented a new octave!

[@montyhockey99]

+bendiggiti He's such a damn good singer

[@mohammedwadhoodh556]

Periphery is the bomb!!

[@Diast3r0logy]

This song gives me fucking chills. Everything about it, the screams, the cleans. An absolute fucking masterpiece.

[@origami_official]

loved this song

[@daniel.h2488]

This song is just too amazing.

[@SergiuCrisan]

So proud to see this band grow this much

[@donia2027]

This masterpiece never gets old

[@pAWNproductionsDE]

at first i hated this band. but every time i saw another one of their music videos, they started to grow on me. congrats periphery, this song will be stuck in my head all weekend, and you have just gained a new fan from this song

[@deadmanwithpitchforkarms8376]

The clean vocals passage at 3:34 made me shed tears of bliss. Holy fuck

[@SlyMan420]

3:52 is where I fell in love with these guys

[@robertcampbell5684]

i love this song so much!!

[@LetoChrist]

Love them live

[@Hotshot2414]

3:18 never stops giving me shivers.

[@voxbox18]

Saw them in St. Paul. The played the whole trilogy, and Masamune was awesome. Easily the best live show I've ever been to.

[@TundraCH]

Some of the best music i have ever heard, period, very few artists can top this its just so technically brilliant i mean P2 what a phenomenal album just perfect

[@Aozora333]

favorite periphery song!!! it ends with a jake bowen section so it's obviously perfect!

[@SICKSxNINE]

These guys look like they're having the time of their lives. Such a great cast of musicians.

[@AkiraSpectrum]

awesome video for an awesome song.

[@JustPabloRaez]

BEAUTIFUL

[@o0Karlsson0o]

Definitely recognize the Metropolis in Montreal. Very proud to say that I was there.

[@blankbrian]

probably the best concert video I've ever seen. nicely executed

[@kuroodo_]

I find this video to be so inspiring and motivating. Especially from 3:02 till the end. I feel like it represents how successful this band has been so far and how hard they have worked.

[@blasher4]

Now THAT is a music video :)

[@Twuntt]

2:29 - 2:45 is the definition of br00tal

[@ryuhadouken1404]

"Double kill, triple kill, ... killpocalypse"

[@kolicsmate7506]

incredible as always!

[@jacopoceretta2694]

2k20 still here watching this shit again and again

[@TheGameBreakers]

PERRRRRIPHERY! LOVE DAT SHIT!

[@josamaroo]

Forty days and nights I've spent alone The shadow hungry angel inside of me grows cold Bloodshed on my mind A slave to these walls Get away from the life sucking call Set me free Grant a pardon for the meddling soul The lives of the fallen deserve to take the spirits toll Within the asylum of a guilty fucking conscience I feel the presence of insanity Creep up my spine To lock me away in this hell Death has made its abode on my shoulders It clings to the palm of my hand eternally Within ascendance I shall relive the slaughtering You'll sing to the dirt, praying for the break of dawn Night will bring the presence of a ravenous demon setting out to terrify Soul destructive like imploding stars There's nothing but the darkness to guide the way There's nothing left inside Scald the inside Fold the endless search within you Scale the insight, for the day it lies before us Somewhere in time Off in the distance we can see, shining, clear, our demise to be We're not listening to ourselves Somewhere in time, we welcomed in the midnight leave But in the distance we can see, shining, clear, our demise to be We're not listening to ourselves

[@BijoyKeisham]

Absolutely loved it!

[@Freezaen]

Lots of MTL footage. Glad to say I was there and it was magic.

[@TheBobSmoke]

Class act of a video right there.

[@shawnainesworth1608]

One of my favorite periphery songs. Listening in 6/27/24

[@chiowns]

Seen them live with a crowd of 30,000+ people. People got hyped, they're insane live you should see them.

[@thomasreuter1614]

2:29 might be one of the greatest moments in any periphery song

[@jasonlucas8740]

So true. Bro this will always be my favorite part of any periphery song

[@SolitaryLight]

You guys are just badasses. Plain and simple.

[@VildhjartaFanGurl]

Their best album.

[@davidslater6495]

LOVE THIS BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jm56787]

So much yes!

[@xrxy23]

the feels i get from this video.

[@jaydenjbryant8665]

The aggression behind “Soul destructive like imploding stars” is insanity

[@ObligatedSloth]

1:47 the moment you all came for

[@TMmodify]

noobb1212 that gojira thing + Nolly's stage presence = unadulterated badass

[@avn6556]

Nah actually for 3:35

[@yourself88xbl]

How can they have so many songs that are this good?

[@FrontlineGuitar]

Is everyone ignoring the skill of whoever programmed the lights? THEY'RE IN TIME WITH THE MOST INSANE RHYTHMS MY GOD
