Periphery Survivor - Periphery - Round 1
« on: August 04, 2015, 11:31:24 AM »
Periphery

1. Insomnia
2. The Walk
3. Letter Experiment
4. Jetpacks Was Yes!
5. Light
6. All New Materials
7. Buttersnips
8. Icarus Lives!
9. Totla Mad
10. Ow My Feelings
11. Zyglrox
12. Racecar
Bonus track: Passenger


It's time to start the survivor with the self-titled debut album Periphery! It's pretty good in my opinion, with only a few tracks I dislike and some I'm indifferent about. The vocals are a bit too raw for my taste, but it works quite well with the heavier songs.

I'm gonna start with Insomnia. It's an okay opener, but I don't like the vocal melodies and all the other songs are just plainly better.

Nice way to start this thing off, I fucked up on the first vote  :lol I forgot Passenger was included, which is definetely my least favorite, but I accidentally voted for The Walk.

I'll just count your vote towards Passenger instead of The Walk then.  :lol

it's okay, i voted for the walk to balance it out anyways

never heard passenger before except this one listen i just did, and i like it more than the walk so i'll give it a round

listening to this album again reminded me of how kinda of monotonous it is, the first four tracks are all fairly forgettable, totla mad and ow my feelings are also pretty just "there" and passenger sounds very "there" too

meh. I think the only Periphery album I find to be a pretty good one is P2 though  :lol
at least the band made an entire EP centered around the best song from this album

How are Jetpacks Was Yes! and Letter Experiment forgettable?  :(

Also we have a four break tie at this moment. If it comes to the worst, is everyone okay if I solve ties like these by asking my non-DTF friend to break the tie? I mean, if we all voted for something different a tiebreaker has no purpose.  :lol

Yeah, I don't like the idea of constantly having to stop the survivor for a tie break poll.

EDIT: The Passenger for me.
