Periphery Megathread: Everything Periphery

bumping my own question... lame.

Yeah, Matt is with Mapex! His kit is in an awesome dual sparkle color, may have to get a guitar with that finish haha!

How many guitars do you own misha?

Let's do the math!

I know it's not exactly our business to know, but was it partially due to the fact that the Yamaha drum division essentially dissolved with the departure of Sakae? Or did Yamaha not provide as much support as an endorser as Mapex?

I'm not sure if Misha can really say, and I don't have any experience with Yamaha so this isn't to knock them, but I work at a distributor who imports Mapex into our country, among a bunch of other brands (Fender, Roland, Akai, Zildjian etc) and Mapex has always been one of the most "on it" brands when it comes to their endorsees coming down and in general their back up support.

I honestly wish I could get the drummer in my band off of Pearl and onto Mapex for this reason alone, well that and I honestly think quite a few of the Mapex kits, even in the more affordable category actually sound pretty bad ass.

An artist's relationship with their company is a very important thing

So frucking stoked I finally figured out this slapping part to MTD: https://soundcloud.com/the-left-turns/make-total-destory-slapping

That was easily the most syncopated riff I've ever tried to learn, I have no idea how you came up with that Misha, it's so simple yet so complicated

Isn't it just 2, 3, 2, 1?

 

[RagtimeDandy]

2-1-2-3 for the first 2, the 3rd one's the one that trips you up. I know nothing about rhythms but it seems like it starts during the end of the last measure of the 2nd one

It's just something I was jamming on in Mauritius forever ago, don't really remember why, sometimes riffs just happen, which is nice cuz it makes my life easy when it happens haha.

 

[goth_fiend]

saw you guys in san fransisco last week and it was a killer show (bummed I didnt get a chance to meet you but awesome show dude) spencer was mentioning you guys havent really started writing for juggernaut, is that just dealing with how much touring youve been doing as of late? also what is the actual tuning on scarlet?

 

[hypotc]

Scarlet tuning: C G C E G D

Judging from the surge of soundclick uploads that would come every time you went to Mauritius years ago, you should do that more

I know this is off topic, but what are you favorite comic books at comicon this year? Did you get to play your guitar at comicon? What was the most intriguing thing you saw at comicon?

What pickups are Mark using in that guitar? Am I a dumbass or are those the Black Hawks?
