have you heard the band i posted? misha is in it along with his friend Mark, it's absolutely STELLAR. It's been on repeat all day lol

EDIT: Misha and Tosin are also my heroes, but being a drummer, i'm all about Navine Koperweis, and Matt Halpburn their grooves are INSANELY awesome!!!!!!

also who's into Monuments!!!! their stuff is so sick! VERY djenty

Maybe not 'djent', but still very awesome-

Ya I knew that. He's a pretty active musician/producer.

And fuck yes, the monuments are awesome. Pretty much the same band as fellsilent, and I fuggin loved fellsilent.

fuck i just learned that Monuments parted ways with both their vocalists. wtf?

Source? They didn't say anything about it on their fb page.

The dual vocals just fit the music perfectly, as it did with Fellsilent. I can't see them leaving... especially the bearded one.

I don't really like Periphery's vocalist much. Shoulda stuck with their last dude, but shit happens.

i actually really enjoy the periphery vocalist on some songs, but as a whole i prefer them to be instrumental only, so i rock the instrumental version of their debut 24/7 lol.

also check the news section, it'll be in there.

here i found it for you http://got-djent.com...-both-vocalists

Thanks dude. Idk how I missed that on facebook. That sucks, but they'll still be good.
And I can't really picture Neema being in a band that doesn't sound like Fellsilent or Monuments. Wonder if he'll disappear.

NP, and yeah i fully agree. i hope they at least get some good production quality songs with the old vocalists up for download.
