Keep the memory of your brother alive every time you play this album. He's right there by your side listening to it too.

Back in 2007 I got a random follow request on Myspace off an unknown band, called Periphery, from Washington DC with around 3,000 friends. They didn't have a singer at the time, so it was just intrumental demos and one track with demo vocals called The Light. I ripped it (sorry guys) and popped that bad boy on my iPod. I was hooked... 16 years later they're still crushing it!

Weirdly, this album feels like a celebration of our lives. Like you're being rewarded once in a while with a new periphery album. This one's ending with "Hey man, life's good, go live it! You deserve the best"

Back in 09/10, I used re-upload Misha's soundclick demos to KZread (Live intros, Have a blast demo etc) to try and get them in as many ears as possible. So glad they've continually smashed it for the past 14 years since - the new album being no exception. Also really love the fact they've dropped stems, tab books, and a doc on day 1 - the work ethic is unmatched!

Ya'll released Zagreus like 2 days after I lost my cat, Zagreus. That track and song was instrumental in my mourning period, because he too was named after the game's protag. Thank you guys so much for being so cool and true to yourselves and the things you love. Keep creating ♥ I look forward to seeing how you guys' art grows.

I've loved seeing Spencer getting more and more involved in the writing and arranging process as more albums come out.

You can really tell spencer has a greater involvement in the writing process, the songs just seem to fit Spencer’s voice and ability so much better than previous albums

I lovee how they highlighted mostly Atropos & Dying Star in the movie, my two fav songs on the album. super cool how they continue to make fresh feeling music after 15+ years

If you look at the elder ring gameplay at 17:50 up until 18:05 the song they are playing matches almost perfectly with the gameplay... Saw that coincidence and found it really cool, also the album and the documentary as always are great

The end part of Misha talking really comes across to me. They really are just trying to make music that they all can enjoy and feel proud of, and I think that shows. They put a lot of love into what they do and it's part of why they are the best.
