The screams are decent but man, I can't lock the clean vocals in at all. They sit on top of the music like blah-flavored icing on a cake. It reminds me of someone doing a mock impression of Rody from Protest The Hero :ugh:

I think I've heard maybe one protest song in my entire life.

I like his tone but Im not a fan of the vocal production on this track. Its really dry and "separate" from the rest of the track. Just an opinion. :cheers:

I love the instrumental, but I've gotta say this does nothing for me. I think I'll only listen to Baretto's Haunted Shores stuff and the instrumentals from now on.

The growls are amazingly good! I think the vocal production kinda ruins the clean vocal part a bit. I like the actualy melody that is going on, just something seems....off? And your range is damn impressive Elliot, holy smoke.

doesn't look like there will be any vocals but there will be a saxophone solo on Blast Inc.!

Harrison Fjord...... such a great name for a song haha. Glad to hear some new Haunted Shores but I'm really excited to finally hear vectors in its entirety

I thought Haunted Shores as a concept got folded into Periphery

This seems like an excuse to just pawn off tracks 2 metal 2 b Periph

I'm not so much of a Periphery h8r as much as I really liked Haunted Shores and Mark's "aesthetic"

I CANNOT CONTAIN THE HYPE.

Every Haunted Shores album with the possible exception of Etherial (even that had it's moments) has blown me away.

It's been too long since they teased at this, haha. So excited. Curious as to why they redid Harrison Fjord though.

Well yeah, that's kinda the point of a side project. I remember reading an interview about how they didn't want Haunted Shores to just be rehashed Periphery songs, they're going for more of a black metal vibe on this EP. Stuff that wouldn't fit in Periphery.

Man, I bet the saxophone solo is just a big homage to Shining after they toured with them. :lol:

We wanted to write new stuff, but thought we should redo one old song, and that's the one that made the most sense to Mark and me. I'm really happy we did that song too, because I think it really came out so much better than the original demo.

Some HS stuff really inspired Spencer, and after hearing his vocals on those songs it was pretty clear they should become Periphery songs.

With this Ep we wanted to write fast songs for the most part, and that's stuff that just happens to not work so well for Periphery, so I think the Viscera Ep sounds pretty damn different, hopefully some of you guys will enjoy it!

Wow, thanks for sharing this! Always wanted a Misha album without the vox. Been waiting since I heard him on Soundcloud.
