Periphery IV - Reptile Instrumental 

Racetile?

Listening to an instrumental reminds me of watching a movie as an adult and realizing all the shit u missed when watching as a kid.

Man hearing the instrumental version really makes me appreciate Nolly's mixing skills. Especially the overheads. Crystal clear and crisp.

That little 1-2-3 beat on the splash symbol and bass drum right at 13:46 is SOOO SICK

The guitar riffs on the first section is mindblowingly good

The horns in the intro section once the drums come in are really something. You can hardly hear them in the original mix but they really pop here. This song is an absolute masterpiece.

All these people complaining about how it's not Periphery themselves releasing this and blah blah blah.......can we not just enjoy the epic music?

I've listened to the original over 50 times easily. It's incredible that the instrumental hit different in a certain way. Soooo good. Such an incredible and well orchestrated song.

Holy fucking shit the orchestral instrumental from 11:45 on sounds so clear and emotive. Thank you for this track.

Sick use of the focus hour riff

5:40 best part

Normally I really like the instrumentals.. but man on this disc, Spencer's vocals are a HUGE part of the overall impression of the songs. Especially on this one IMO..

I can still here all the vocals lol

U sir, are the hero that we need. Karaoke time!

13:04 part is so cool and the 13:48 omg

Good metal is the one that is good both with and without vocals. Basically all metal. Which is why metal is the best genre.

Someone should make an animated music video following the lyrics and story line 🤙🏽 I also hear little snips and techniques they used on other songs like Stranger Things, Omega, Prayer Position, MK Ultra... Beautiful, Epic!!!

It blows my mind that this song was once unfamiliar to me. Relistening for the billionth time, waiting patiently for PV 🙏

I couldn't stop myself singing/speaking the deep growly voice section, headphones Max volume, praying no one could overhear

The bridge of the song gives me the goose bumps.

11:45 is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard

I personally prefer instrumentals...not for the inadequacy of spencers vocal talent but, in my opinion, the lyrical content of most music is just a limiting factor for its expression

I would love to here the full bass track by itself

thank you very much my fellow djentleman

In here a tale of a boy who reached the masses His name was Billy and he liked to get high A normal guy until the green-skin apocalypse, a do or die There must be something in the water (besides fluoride and shit) Where he lie, where he lie He threw that gaping brain asunder When he realized, when he realized It's coming down We've sown thrones and brought the kings down to knees Hello, here we are, salutations And every day that you wake Is a gift that you take from the gods That's right You came from the trees and we altered the genes Here you are, all you fuck with is wages You had the day but you pissed it away I think it's time that we show our ways Now shed that violence all over Let mayhem in the streets From mountain top to oceans We own your every need It's coming down With every breath that we take we can hear that sound Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the ground With every breath that we take we can hear that sound A green-skin apocalypse, a do or die So Billy heeds the call of fathers Release high through these eyes Embraces the chi and he praises the weeds Holding out for the day he can face them Every day that he trains is a slap in the face to the gods God damn Shutting out politics, viewing beings as equals Ain't it funny how that makes sense? You had the floor but you gave it a bore, now it's equal Can we clean that slate Now shed that violence all over Let mayhem in the streets From mountain top to oceans We own your every need It's coming down Somebody needs a reaction to stay on the ground It's coming down Follow a trail of the ones who bleed the masses Follow behind the reptilian eyes A normal day in the green-skin apocalypse, a do or die There must be something in the water Where he lie, where he lie He threw that gaping brain asunder When he realized, when he realized National alliance and he leads the fight No class, no race, just fucking violence in their eyes A plan for human survival takes to flight The good that's left and all they cherish stands to die Is this the end of all we know They all float Is this the end of all we know Wasted our lives for what Float away Do we feed the reaction Do we stay Do we all float away Do you think you know who you are Did you think you had it all worked out well And who could believe Those dead-eyed soldiers Red sky rainfall The winter beams no beauty Just cold-eyed monsters and bare branches You can wail to the moon But that'll just make things worse They see you They see me They see all No children in the streets, where do they play When freedom here has been revoked The ground which all their fathers soaked No medicine The scarcity of nourishment is evident And where's our god Have we seen that side of heaven yet, no Rich, poor, clutching to their sheets in horror Is there an answer (no) Is there somebody who can take away All the present dismay Bury the light, pray through night Mayhem in the streets, no order Is there an answer (no) Is there somebody who can take away All the present dismay Bury the light, pray through night You've buried that, buried that light Now pray through night What has come down is littered all around in your sight It's littered in your sight The claim they stake A land from us they take The claim they stake A land from us they take The craft he shakes A race within his wake Victory alone became his above the soil we know A grave is laid A man within its cage Victory alone became his down in the soil he owns Soil we know becomes our own home Soil we know becomes our own home Now we're staring at the round together This is not the first time or the last time Soil we know becomes our own home Now we're staring at the round together Now we're staring at the round together Soil we own becomes ours Order back in what we know Soil we own becomes ours Now one with the soil we own Soil we own becomes ours Order back in what we know Soil we own becomes ours Now one with the soil we own, soil we own

Nice art

@MattHalpern not to be that guy, but I FOUND AN OOPSIE. I love you so much but I think you might want to know you accidentally swung a ghost note at 8:40. Does Misha know you're only human 🤨 I've seen the GGD ads lol

wtf lol this picture

Nice drawing bro

I need this on vinyl so damn bad

literally everyone mispronounces "hail stan" and i love it

10:09 - 10:41 is so heavy I love it

Also, who's actually singing the lyrics to the song?

Any chance of a pure vocal/backing choir version of this ?

Fucking awesome

When the instrumental is as virtuous as the vocals only.

12:01 why does it sound like I can just barely hear vocals (but not actual vocals)...Nolly is doing something crazy there.

Any reason certain background elements are missing?

Without the vocals, they sound like they were in P3...IMO something must have happened when they mixed in the vocals. Like...the vocal track just applied some sort of amp boost in the songs. Or I might be wrong. This instrumental tracks were mixed with less compression, right? lol

there somebody who can take away! All the present dismay!? Bury the light, pray through night! Mayhem in the streets, no order! Is there an answer!? (No!) Is there somebody who can take away! All the present dismay!? Bury the light, pray through night! You buried that, buried that light! Now pray through night! What has come down is littered all around in your sight! Is littered in your sight! The claim they stake The land from us they take The claim they stake (They stake!) The land from us they take (They take!) The craft he shakes! A race within his wake! Victory alone became his above the soil we know! A grave is laid! A man within its cage! Victory alone became his down in the soil he owns! Soil we know becomes our own home Soil we know becomes our own home Now we're staring at the ground together This is not the first time or the last time Soil we know becomes our own home Staring at the ground together Now we're staring at the ground together Soil we own becomes ours! (Order back in what we know!) Soil we own becomes ours! Now one with the soil we own! Soil we own becomes ours! (Order back in what we know!) Soil we own becomes ours! Now one with the soil we own! (Soil we own!)

nolly is a god

Can't help but notice the synths and strings from the breakdown followed by the solo have either disappeared or been drowned out

Is it official or not? Where are all these instrumental versions come from? Who are you, guys?

NobuoUemmatsuCore

This wouldn’t sound out of place in a Fire Emblem game, tbh.

Is there a shorter version, like the one that Mark played?

sat... katana 7+7= 16

Copper --------> adik silver

I will say I much prefer the chorus this way 👌 too many layers in the original that all mirror the same melody. Puts me off

RICH! POOR!

I have just discovered periphery 10 minutes ago and I'm not a fan of the vocals at all, thank you very much for this

08:57 F*CK

Did you think you had it all worked out well? And who could believe Those dead-eyed soldiers? Red sky rainfall The winter beams no beauty Just cold-eyed monsters and bare branches You can wail to the moon But that'll just make things worse They see you They see me They see all No children in the streets, where do they play When freedom here has been revoked? The ground which all their fathers soaked No medicine The scarcity of nourishment is evident And where's our god? Have we seen that side of heaven yet? No Rich, poor, clutching to their sheets in horror Is there an answer? (no) Is there somebody who can take away All the present dismay?
