  • That note at 3:35 is SO FUCKING POWERFUL

  • THE GODS

    THEY HAVE BEEN FRAKED

    IN 1080p

  • i seriously cant wait for their CD Juggernaut that comes out eventually. it will be a concept album based around this song. at least thats what i think i heard... if so itll be amazing because this is an awesome concept lyrically

  • personally, is too bored... greetings

  • Matt Halpern is my goddamn idol. If you can be that badass on the drums and only have a 3 piece set then you have got some madd fucking talent. This band inspires me to be all that I can be.

  • you took out my favorite part :(

  • Awesome song, and I for one am down with the vocals. They prove you don't need to growl like a fucking liger the whole time to compliment a progressive metal song. Good shit.

  • Wonderful job you guys(: hope to see another album soon?

  • Comment removed

  • Holy shit i cant wait to see this live in columbus with protest the hero. id better get to meet you all!!!

  • everytime i watch this video i laugh because it hilarious how much spence looks like charlie day

  • its amazig how well caseys vocals compliment the djent sound even his cleans ...his screams are much better tho for sure

  • @MrCowboysfan4life ? This is Spencer Sotello.

  • @TheTyrynir sometimes its hard to tell them apart when it comes to clean vocals they sound somewhat simialar but there screams are def distictive from each other i like caseys alot more i really dont like spencer honestly id rather have tht jake verdika dude over spencer

  • I think we speak for all of us gentleman. Amazing.

  • Good song, but i'm not a big fan of the vocal style. Everything else is good, though.

  • This is one of the most amazing songs that I have ever heard. I have such a respect for this band: they have it all. I look forward to hearing more

  • it's been over a year... DAMN!! 2011 was wayyy to fast..

  • freaking. AWESOME!

  • I need to consume Halpern's soul.

  • I used to be able to sing as great as the lead vocalist,

    then I woke up.

  • They remind me of deftones. Not the music, just them.

  • he needs to sing like he's in a metal band, not in three days grace, for reals? not one scream, not even a grunt lol

  • @imsmrtrthnyou he did in the album version of the song

  • @imsmrtrthnyou Listen to the album. This is the version from the Icarus EP. Plenty of screaming throughout the album

  • @imsmrtrthnyou Or perhaps, he should sing in a way that sounds good with the music they are playing, rather than trying to fit into the stereotypes of a genre. Just a thought.

  • @imsmrtrthnyou The fact that they can have that heavy of instrumentation while remaining melodious throughout the vocals is freaking awesome. They need to do whatever they feel inspired to do because it's about them making music from their hearts not making what they think people wanna hear.

  • idk. i cannot pin-point exactly what it is, but i just can't get down with these vox.

  • I love Spencer's vocals, I see no issue, but the majority probably thinks they're too melodic for the music.

  • Periphery no needy the vocalz. The music speaks for itself. Glad they decided to release an instrumental version of the album. Hope that is a consistent trend.

  • Lead singer = Charlie from 'It's always sunny in Philadelphia"

  • The vocals are great, but he sings too much. His voice just covers the music, it doesn't flow with it.

  • love you spencer (:

  • Spencer Sotelo is not only an amazing vocalist, but he's an amazing person and friend. ILY <3

  • Hey Periphery, did you know that Charlie Day does vocals for your band?

  • @metalradio9 No, because then the lyrics would be more like, "Dayman! Ahhahahhh!! Fighter of the nightman!! Ahhahhahhhhh! Champion of the Sun!! Ahhhahhhhh! He's a master of karate, and friendship, for everyone!"

  • Any singer who uses Blue mics is okay me.

  • Lol Misha is amazing, but he looks completely ridiculous and out of place in a video like this.

    And I'm still trying to figure out how the fuck any of the song names relate to the lyrics .__.

  • the lyrcs is fucking deep!!

  • Spencer: screams-meh singing is godly

  • You know something's wrong in the world when Architects have more views than Periphery!

  • @BestAmongRuins No. Something's wrong when Asking Alexandria has more views.

  • @Horizons92

    Fair point, Could be worse though, could be either Black Fail Brides or Bring Me The Horizon.

  • @BestAmongRuins Or Brokencyde. *shudder*

  • @Horizons92

    Oh god, Please. No more...

  • reminds me of my gf haha

  • This song is just impressive. The chorus sends cold shivers up and down my spine. Uaaah...

  • Comment removed

  • Recently stumbled upon Periphery, love what I hear. Just want to ask Spencer, what do you sing in between "distant memories" and "Presently". I hear some vocals there, but I've yet to see lyrics for it. I think it sounds like "Holding back the distant memories as they are." Thanks, Keep kicking it Periphery!

  • @SpiralSpeed If you are in europe, you might want to get tickets for the europe tour of dream theater because periphery is headlining.

  • Is this is about Tithonus?

  • You guys are amazing! You are now my favorite new metal band, bar none....pure genius, in my opinion. I am probably your oldest fan (I will be 50 next year) am a good drummer and fair guitar player. This version is uber-cool!

  • It sounds really good guys, keep it up! :D

  • i prefer the album version also but i do like this one still my favorite song is deff Racecar!

  • LMAO @misha with the solo SO EPIC YOU GUYS ARE DOING IT HUGE RIGHT NOW MAD PROPZ BRO'Z

  • Periphery makes me forget the pain <3

    Mischa seems to Jizz: 2:06

    Would-be sweet wallpapers: 4:01 and maybe 4:15

  • Eternal people cannot be destroyed.

    We can only suffer.

  • Spencer is an amazing vocalist, his highs are epic and his screams are gut busting! i love Periphery and i love their sound. keep it up guys, love this version of Jetpacks \m/

  • Spencer, one talented vocalist! Especially because he re-enact these vocals live, what a hero!!

  • Mishas Solofaces are just awesome

  • My college professor ALWAYS talks about you guys.... now i see why. Holy shit.

  • @0fmachines coolest professor EVER. Lucky

  • every time i was on youtube i ve looking for some good songs, but i ve never found any one

    and then i found these one and it s great song

    no, not a great song... the best song ever!!!

  • Such an underrated band. These guys have some serious musical talent and they are original! They aren't cutting cookies, that's for sure!!!!!!

  • Holy shit! this is the first time i've ever watched a video and the band was in the comments responding back! Love this song!

  • damn straight and keep them solas up

  • Live hard

    Die young

    Love this song :p

  • no seriously we love of all kinds and if you are still reading this may be victim having too much free time that is the case then sure to buy self titled debut album as it great way waste 73 minutes your life.

    gotta love tags

  • Spencer is beautiful voice

  • cant wait for those albums next year

  • 3:35 = epic

  • This band is just phenomenal. Love it

  • Song is great, but I only don-t understand why name of the song is "Jetpacks Was Yes!"

  • @Slipknot4ever88 It's a Arrest Development reference.

  • I like this version better!

  • spencer's facial expressions kills me. xD

    good song btw, love Periphery!

  • Shoot. I got goosebumps from listening. Very nice.

    +1 for you Peiphery.

  • I hear both the instrumental CD that not even remember the singer's voice ... interest

  • See you guys in Glasgow supporting DT, it's gonna be legendary!!!

  • i find this version is more appealing to the masses. but still if you had added the 3:10 on the album version the song would be even more amazing

  • One way to tell for sure if you have a shitty soundcard is to listen to this song. If you don't like it, go get a better one and try again. Better yet, spend a couple hundred dollars for car audio and buy the CD. You'll feel better, all 38 of you puny dislikers.

    So far, HP anything sucks for audio as do low rent soundblasters IMHO.

  • What is the style of music you guys put in this song when Spencer starts singing? @ 0:14

  • Misha is a testament to Musicality. Not a theory nutter, plays what works and comes to him via inspirations path. With these constraints he has become one of the most popular modern guitarists/ musicians. Plus he produced Animals as leaders first album I believe!! High five Misha from Australia.

  • Periphery I gotta be honest, 98% of the time I turn on my ipod, i do it to listen to you guys. It's been that way for the past 2 years now and I have yet to tire of a single one of your songs. Keep it up!

  • Periphery is the new Snapple.. Made from the best stuff on earth!!!

  • The meaning of this song is amazing...

  • @jdsol because it sounds like that metalcore stuff, its going to be a while before it grows on me.. like james labrie

  • The vocals on this version are 800x better. And the part of the solo that's not on the album is awesome

  • Why does everyone hate on Spencer so much? I love his vocals!

  • @jdsol1 Completely agree. He gives this song exactly what it needs - powerful, clean, passionate vocals. It's a sad song about being left alone, and screaming his balls off (like I suspect a majority of the haters would prefer) would just sound out of place. This is a borderline ballad song, and I love what Spencer did for it.

  • @jdsol1 EXACTLY.

  • @jdsol1 Sponce*

  • @jdsol1 Agreed. The vocals are amazing.

  • @jdsol1 they are great!

  • This version is phenomenal, great job you guys. Keep kicking ass and writing good music!

  • Periphery is yes.

  • Haha he looks like he's constipated when playing that one part with his guitar haha.

  • ya know i used to dislike the vocalist but i can appreciate it now idk probably just grew on me

  • cuz Misha's skin is diarrheaaaaaaaaaaa

  • There once was a band called Periphery,

    Who forged albums like musical blacksmithery,

    Just give Misha Mansoor,

    A minute, no more,

    And he'll give back to you a great riff or 3!

  • That solo put me in a good mood...

  • i just pretend it's charlie from 'always sunny' singing, and everything is A O K

  • hey misha, eat a dick. haha jk ur koo ;)

  • man this versions better way more .. feel to it ya know

  • Is it weird that I start crying tears of astonishment whenever I listen to Periphery's music?

  • @SuperMardiGrasBros i shit my pants...is that normal?

  • What kinda guitar is Misha using? o.O Doesn't look like any I know... (cause of the headstock)

  • @jeleopard Bernie RIco Jr guitars

  • @skycaptain141

    Hm. Thank you.

  • Misha go pOp!

  • This music is holy.

  • 2:10 oh face

  • THIS SONG IS THE TITS!!!

  • His voice literally brings tears to my eyes.

  • I do prefer the Jetpacks on the album though. Was/is there a specific reason why there is a 2nd version?

  • @Sproeikoei We had the opportunity to do it again and improve it, so we did!

  • @Sproeikoei They took out the screams and cutie-d up the vocals because their label wanted to make a video and most popular "radio stations" and sites look down on bands that scream. Only this version could possibly ever be played on the radio.

  • @MachSchnellGuitar This is not exactly true, the label did approach us for a radio edit. We didn't want to, but we are the kind of band who will at least try something, and if we don't like it we can then use the result as a basis for dismissal of the idea. When we rearranged the song and Sponce rewrote the parts, we were surprised by how much better and cohesive the song sounded, and so we decided to make it the official version. We also ditched the radio campaign idea.

  • @Periphery Pwned. 

  • @MachSchnellGuitar Indeed.

  • Comment removed

  • @Periphery I like that you guys are using much more melodic vocals and harmonies it's what sets you guys apart from the bands that are just constant guttoral screaming. So much more emotive and powerful, Keep it up!

  • @Periphery Is that why you guys have like 7 different versions of Icarus Lives?

  • i can't imagine why people dont like this. a video bringing tears to my eyes, and music with meaning. Thank you Periphery!

  • gay.

  • awesoooooome

  • fuckin perfect!

  • I just took a break from playing guitar to watch season 3 of Arrested Development. Mind blown.

  • @NunSuperior Naming a song after a fictional Japanese website=strangest "win" ever. :P

  • nailed that solo

  • This is the best track, that i ever heard!

  • Every night, I pray to God that a band like this (djent sound), namely periphery, would become famous enough to make it to a mainstream radio station like kiss 108. If I heard this on that station... Believe me when I say I would stop whatever I was doing and interpretively dance.

  • @neilorourke71 Your radio would melt.

  • please come to the US

  • @geoffreyprill LOOOOOOOOOOOL you are fcking retarded

  • @TheGameHive says the virgin who every one of his uploads are gay ass computer games. maybe when you grow up ill tell you all about what a vagina feels like, spik.

  • @geoffreyprill Ahm, periphery is american. you saying that they need to come to the US is stupid.

    and then don't getting my point, by saying that you are retarded, and calling me a virgin that plays video games. is kinda lame.

    tough, i do have a Gf asshole.

    have a nice day.

  • @TheGameHive While i agree 100% that him calling you names wasnt needed in any way, neither was you calling him retarded at the first place only for not knowing they are american, making mistakes doesnt make you retarded.

  • @blobliblo35 true, i admit that that wasn't the perfect way to explain that he made a mistake.

  • @TheGameHive it's nice that you have humility, now peace everyone :p

  • @blobliblo35 well, he reacted about a week ago so there was no war in the first place i gues lololol

  • Such a wide range vocalist adds so much more depth to a song than screams alone

  • Periphery needs more credit this really is music on a Beethoven level, these guys are making in my opinion masterpieces that will last tough out the ages.

  • Lol the tags are too awesome xD

  • Misha has the tone of god in his fingers. Why he chooses to ruin his songs with these vocals is beyond me.

  • @burntkielbasa I did it just to piss you off! Glad it worked!

  • @Periphery Hahaha you fucking tell him

  • @Periphery I'm not pissed, sir. Just disappointed. I will say though, I'm glad to hear something that sounds different. It sounds like Chiodos, except it doesn't suck a bunch of balls.

  • @Periphery Perhaps "ruin" was a poor choice of .. word. I APOROGIZE!

  • @Periphery I LOVE the vocals. It sets Periphery apart from the typical metal band. Keep it up, PLEASE!!!

  • @Periphery holy hell. that just happened......

    XD LMAO you tell em spencer!!!!

    Keep doing what you do. i have NEVER heard someone with as much control as you do... and they melodies you find in the music is incredible. keep it up.

  • @Periphery The best response

  • @Periphery You are not only a musical genius, but also a master of witty replies, and for that I salute You. :)

  • @Periphery i love spencer vocals :D !

  • @burntkielbasa

    f+cking great vocals!!

  • @burntkielbasa i personally feel like he fucking dominates all around. if you don't like the vocals quit bitching and get the instrumental version

  • @burntkielbasa Dumb comment. You imply that Misha knows what he's doing and then contradict that by questioning his choice in vocalists. This, of course, only reinforces the fact that Misha having Spencer front the band is a good choice and that you should reevaluate your taste in singers. Misha's a smart man.

  • @burntkielbasa and whats wrong with these VERY talented vocals?

  • @burntkielbasa

    Yeah, its definitely way beyond your comprehension.

    Suck a dick bitch

  • is there anywhere i can download this version of the song?

  • You like Periphery ?? Then you will like this here too !

    youtube.com/watch?v=WpF5OeRN9O­A

  • Misha has beautiful sex with a guitar. 2:00

  • 33 people did not find there Djentpacks!

  • Poor guy, if only he knew one of the most important rules about Immortals- they can be killed through decapitation.

  • OMFG DEMASIADO 

  • kind of underoath, love this song <3 ! respect, and listen us!

  • I love this song and band.

    I gotta listen to them whenever I play halo or monster hunter :)

  • just pure amazing. the vocals are top notch.
