Spencer is insane; he can occasionally go higher than that Eb. He can go from the heaviest metal-y vibes to pure pop-diva stylings within the same song, and even on those super high notes he's really belting it out. I don't think I'll ever tire of seeing people react to his absurd range, you should check out some more Periphery; he has more to offer, I promise. There are so many songs that provide great demonstrations it's hard to go wrong: Stranger Things, Reptile, Lune, Satellites, It's Only Smiles, Absolomb (has some nuts highs).

This was a really good breakdown of this song. This type of music usually takes a few listens to get into because of all the changes which doesn't really appeal to the mainstream listener. On the topic of your pop signing, Spencer has another project that he would have been working on at the same time as this album call Nik Mystery that explores synthwave pop which you can hear a lot of in this periphery album. You should definitely check out Satellites by Periphery next because it will really showcase spencers range, not just notes but style too.
