sorry Im confused, how does a band become mainstream and start writing mainstream material when there still underground ? I mean misha and the rest of periphery have been posting songs on there soundclick years before they got signed. as far as the type of material they put out they've, from what I understanded, turned down several offers before sumerian even approached them and even still they pretty much sculpted the deal so that A) they owned there own material and B) had exclusive creative control so ya know what I do hope they get huge or at least big enough to make some money at it. everyone has this convoluted idea that when you get big you sell out but you know as well as I do that we would all like to do this for a living and that means selling records and selling out concerts.
ye, they're still underground. There's a bit of an misunderstanding here. What I mean when I say mainstream is that their sound as a whole is sounding more and more like todays popular metal bands (a sound that is not necessarily good). I don't want periphery, a band with sooo much potential, to become metal by numbers. All I hear everywhere is how great they are and it don't seem as they get bad critique at all. I want to do my part to push it in the direction I want
sounds selfish, but we all want to have the opportunity to influence one of our favorite bands and make them go the direction we want don't we?
Btw, Yes I really do hope they get so big that they can make a good living from it. I want more music, and that requires monnies![]()

we have always made the music that WE wanted to hear for OURSELVES and if people dig it, then that is our icing on the cake!

I have never understood the mentality of some fans that makes them think they have a say in the musical direction of a band simply because they buy the Albums or like the music, it's absolutely bafflingI want to do my part to push it in the direction I wantsounds selfish
Not a fan of this. Still can't understand why some people get hard over it. It's basically a Meshuggah cover band with a punk pop singer. lol.
