Periphery Get Experimental with “Clear”

by Ryan Minic | Dec 3, 2013

Periphery have a new experimental recording coming in January.

It’s called Clear.

Guitarist Jake Bowen said of the effort:

“Clear is an experiment to explore all of the different writing styles in the band. It’s rare when you have a band where every member is capable of writing and producing music. With each member controlling their own track, this recording enabled us to go down any path we chose in terms of style and sound.”

Clear comes out on January 28th in North America through Sumerian Records.
