Periphery Megathread: Everything Periphery

[Random3]

Any idea who chooses what song and how? Like does the song have to have been a single?

Just because I agree it seems very odd that they would pick Price over some of the others on that album.

So i work at one of the major labels in the industry and do all of the grammy work for the label. So what happens is anyone who is registered with the recording academy can submit any song that came out 10/1/15 to 9/30/16 as long as they pay the fee associated with the submissions. We go through all of the artists managers and marketing product managers and see which songs we want to use (most times its the most popular song for the major general categories and then pick a few specific songs that will fit specific craft categories). Then we submit everything, and then the recording academy goes through the screening process, where committee members delegate and decide what songs should be kicked to what categories and what should stay. Then ballots go out, and voting members vote on what they think should be nominated.

With that being said, we tend to stay away from submitting two songs from the same artist into the same category, (except for all of the general categories i.e record and song of the year) as to not split the vote. So someone from Periphery's camp (I'm assuming) thought that The Price would be the song that would be the most appealing to the metal committee and they nailed it. So stupidly pumped that periphery got the nomination. It makes me super happy that a band as young as periphery (relative to the rest of the guys that got the nomination) got the nomination. Congrats again guys!!

North American dates just announced for 2017. I'll definitely be checking out the Montreal show.

Hope these tours aren't interfering with progress on the new Contortionist.

Found out Periphery will be opening for Animals as Leaders in Beijing in February! As if that isn't exciting enough, Nick Johnston will be on the Asia tour with them, which seems like a bit of an odd choice since he's not really a metal player at all, but damn is he an amazing player.

Since Periphery isn't the headliner, how long should i expect them to play? Does an hour seem like a stretch? Is 40 minutes more likely?

Hey dude, I might have to double check with management to be absolutely sure, but I believe we are either headlining or co-headlining, either way the intention is to play the full headlining set! (70 mins or so I think?)

Tuon kaljat! First thing in the morning bought the ticket. These italian guys also kick some ass. Btw the ticket was quite affordable compared to what I'm used to.

 

[Kaura]

Aww, the European tour line-up sounds sick. Can't wait until the guys play an US tour again.

 

[drmosh]

Silvera was Gojira's second single.

also clearly the better song than the first single

Beijinger here, I believe it will be a co-headlining show, as AAL and Periphery will be on their separate Asian tours in Feb, we're just lucky to have both on the same night!

I watched Misha's live stream about the new Horizon Drive/Gate pedal.

A few interesting comments were made:

One person asked something along the lines of what his favorite amp was to put the pedal with. The reply was something along the lines of, after NAMM (next month), it will be clear what my favorite amp for this is.

Another person asked something regarding the BKP Juggernauts. The reply to this was to keep an eye on Bareknuckle for something coming.

From these comments it seemed pretty obvious that a new amp and/or pickups may be releasing in 2017.

I remember seeing a photo of Misha playing new peavey cabs on tour, but being tight-lipped about the specs on them. I'm just speculating, but possibly ditching the Axe-Fx and we might see a Misha Peavey?

I think he has hinted before that he would like to have single coil jugs but who knows

If you got the emails from horizon devices Misha had mentioned peavey amps once or twice in them. A Misha Peavey would be interesting if that's what it is. Namm is such a bank account slayer

 

[cslushy]

I don't doubt that a misha peavy is possible but I don't see anyone on Periphery ditching the Axe-Fx with how key it is to their live shows.

 

[oc616]

Maybe it'll be a similar deal to Meshuggah using IRL amps now, but with the Axe FX for "other purposes".

Man...

You should have seen their rigs (Tube Amps, Cabs, Pedals) before the AxeFx.

3 Noise-Gates? Misha?
