The best song ever? Definitely an instant classic in metal.
Has anyone here tried to learn it on bass? (or guitar)
I've started learning it. VERY fun and challenging song to play.
Discussion regarding Periphery/Bulb welcome!

Check it out if you haven't! Also check out Tesseract if you Haven't heard of them yet, along the same lines as Periphery. YouTube - TESSERACT - Concealing Fate Pt. III: The Impossible

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: cincinnati | | | they djent sound relies heavily on cutting guitar below 200 hz. still no bass going on. or maybe its so scooped, buried, and mundane that i dont hear it. im certainly rarely listening for it, but id love to hear a small section of bass and drum groove.
trouble with their compositions is that theres ALWAYS rhythm guitar going on, even with 2 part guitar melodies. if the rhythm guitar would drop out, it would leave the bass. my current band has a very strict 1 guitar policy, so the bass is covering both bass and rhythm guitar sometimes.

before the chorus drops, groove. and a tiny bit in the chorus in cranked headphones. its certainly buried under there. heavily gated with the guitars. YouTube - Periphery - 'Jetpacks Was Yes! (V2.0)' [HQ]

I got into music (recreational listening) pretty late in life, in 9th grade which was only a year and a half before I started playing bass. When I did the vast majority of what I listened to then was metal, primarily everything from the 80s and a lot of more recent prog stuff. I listen to it less now but still love it... plus a big, fro having, black metalhead always throws people for a loop when I rock out in my car lol

Can't deny he has a heck of a lot of talent. | its his screaming that i dont love. kinda.. angry gremlin. his singing is pretty solid. i can push out highs like that if i scream them out of the back of my throat, but not very precisely. likely some pitch correction going on there, but definitely a solid vocalist. his scream vocals grew on me. im more from the thrice and killswitch school of hardcore vocals, so this was a odd step for me
