Periphery’s Misha Mansoor Comments on Spencer Sotelo Joining From First to Last

by | Apr 8, 2014

Yesterday’s news of Periphery vocalist Spencer Sotelo joining From First To Last caught everyone off guard. Doesn’t it seem just kinda weird? Sotelo took to his Twitter to ensure Periphery fans that he’s still in the band, and that FFTL is a side project with some of his friends. But what’s Misha Mansoor think? 

I know they were a super influential band for him growing up, and to him it must be a surreal experience. I am personally not familiar with their music, I know that Skrillex used to sing for them and that’s about it haha.

From First To Last are currently working on their next release with Sotelo. It’s expected out sometime this year.
