Periphery: : supporting Devin Townsend Project and Meshuggah at Brixton Academy, London on March 3rd

Century Media Records — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 01:32:44 GMT

After touring with Between The Buried And Me and The Safety Fire in the fall of last year PERIPHERY have been confirmed to open a very special show: On May 3rd, 2013 they will support a huge co-headline show of tech-metal behemoths Meshuggah and the mighty Devin Townsend Project with DTP closing the nights proceedings at the legendary Brixton Academy, London (UK). Misha Mansoor (guitars PERIPHERY) about joining the billing: "Meshuggah and Devin Townsend Project are not only 2 bands that I love to death, but they are top notch bands that put on some of the best shows I have ever seen. PERIPHERY is honored and we consider ourselves incredibly lucky to be able to share the stage with them, and we know this is going to be an epic night to remember. So get your tickets while you still can. See you there!" Devin Townsend had this to say about the not-to-be-missed show: "Well this is an intense turn of events... it's no secret how much love and respect I have for Meshuggah. They are an anomaly in life, let alone in music, as being a perfectly developed entity that only evolves as a result of there being nothing but honesty in their vision. If you have not experienced Meshuggah live, I truly believe you have not witnessed the elite that this genre has to offer, and to be playing alongside of them again is an honour that I don't take lightly. PERIPHERY are a band and a musical entity as well in which I cannot say enough good things about. The potential that band of humans demonstrates together is truly unlimited, and they have a perspective on music that very few folks do, unlimited scope and astounding musicianship. Their new record is beautiful and the people in the band are a constant source of inspiration to me. ...To be allowed to participate in this bill is humbling beyond all explanation, and the Brixton Academy is a historic venue that has been on my 'bucket-list' to play. By being the best version of myself that I can be we hope to do this show the justice it deserves. An honour and a privilege. We hope to see you there, and the three bands will do you proud. Peace." PERIPHERY live: 03.05.2013 (UK) London - Brixton Academy (with Meshuggah and Devin Townsend Project) Tickets go on sale for the show on 1st February priced at �28.50 on presale. Keep your eyes peeled for more European shows supporting the release of PERIPHERY's sophomore album "Periphery II" that was released in July of 2012. Devin Townsend Project "Epicloud" is out on InsideOut Records.

Periphery: : "Periphery II" out NOW

Century Media Records — Mon, 16 Jul 2012 09:06:53 GMT

After being out digitally for two weeks the European pressing of PERIPHERY's sophomore album "Periphery II" is out now as Jewelcase CD and limited Digipak CD that comes with a dyecut, both including bonus material: Bonustrack Jewelcase CD: 15. Far Out (instrumental) Bonustracks ltd. Digipak CD: 15. Far Out (instrumental) 16. The Heretic Anthem Some feedback from the media about "Periphery II": "(...) Periphery II... is the work defining just who and what they are. And with enough tech-head virtuosity to make other bands weep." (Kerrang! UK) "(...) one thing that really sets this US collective apart from the eight-sting toting hordes: their songwriting." (Terrorizer, UK) "A quite exceptional album indeed." (Rock Sound, UK) Coverstory (Misha Mansoor vs. John Petrucci) + 5 page interview (Gitarist, NL) "Songs like "Have A Blast", "Facepalm Mute" and "Erised" are of such a quality that the status of PERIPHERY as one of the bands crossing borders with the potential to appeal to a wider audience isn't only stressed, but also expanded." (Fuze, D) "In its weakest moments it sounds like Linkin Park in its best like Mr. Bungle fighting Strapping Young Lad. Thanks to young talents like this five piece from Maryland progressive metal is having a bright future, because it is stunning how many blinkers are casted off." (Visions, D) "Evil and beautiful, brutal and tender, complex and catchy - a song like "Have A Blast" is programmatic for the fascinating metal opus that features so many highlights that it is pointless to try to enlist them." (Metal Hammer, D) Century Media Records licensed "Periphery II" for the world outside of North America, Australia/NZ and Japan. The album is featuring several high profile guests: Erised (John Petrucci, Dream Theater) Mile Zero (Wes Hauch, The Faceless) Have a Blast (Guthrie Govan, The Aristocrats) In USA "Periphery II" entered the official Billboard 200 Albumcharts at #44 upon its release. Check out their stunning video for "MAKE TOTAL DESTROY" for special audio-visual experience: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pskj9sbffg&feature=relmfu After playing prestigious festivals like Rock am Ring and Download Festival PERIPHERY will head back to Europe together with Between The Buried And Me and The Safety Fire in October.
