Periphery to release new album, Djent Is Not A Genre

Periphery are back! The band are set to release their excellently-titled new album Djent Is Not A Genre – their first full-length in four years, following 2019’s Periphery IV: Hail Stan – on March 10.

“We spent more time on Periphery V than any other release in our history,” announces Mark Holcomb. “We challenged and pushed ourselves harder, and along the way we grew even closer as a band. We are so proud of the final results!

“I also wanted to mention how exceedingly grateful we are to our fans for being so patient in waiting for this record. We wanted to show our appreciation by giving you two songs today instead of one. We have a very busy 2023 and 2024 planned so we’ll see you on the road!”

As Mark said, Periphery have unveiled not one but two new singles – Wildfire and Zagreus – to accompany the announcement, which you can hear now below:
