American progressive metal/djent band formed in 2005 in the Washington, D.C. area; founded by guitarist Misha Mansoor; recognized as pioneers of the djent movement.

Reviews praise the debut Periphery as a near-masterpiece of modern progressive metal/djent driven by Misha Mansoor’s vision. Juggernaut (Alpha/Omega) is lauded as a bold, cinematic concept with many standout tracks despite a few fillers. Periphery IV: Hail Stan draws criticism for inconsistency, though songs like Reptile, It’s Only Smiles, Blood Eagle, and Satellites stand out. Execution and production are commended throughout, especially vocals.
