After listening to the EP a few times, I think it's funny to see who writes what in the band, and how they apply it to each song.
Besides the overture, I think my best-to-worst list for the EP is like this:
Jakes and Mishas tracks I wasn't too keen on, but they're growing on me.
The top 3 is just plain awesome. Mark should be proud of Pale aura, that song is phenomenal!

As for me, I'll be waiting 'till I buy it to give it a listen at maximum firepower.
Haha exactly. Same for me as well.

I actually liked the complete 180 that Nolly's track provided. Mark, Jake, and Misha all have styles that mesh together very well and it shows on PII. Then out of nowhere you've got Nolly's mammoth of a track. I like that it indulges in more traditional metal sounds instead of whatever you want to call Periphery ("djent", whatever the fudge that means now...), while still retaining that Meshuggah infuence. Also it just sounds ....ing evil and that's always a plus 
It also goes to show why the new RSF EP bored me to death, while the self-titled showed alot of potential

Pale Aura is just too good not to play live. I think it would fit well in their setlist. If they're able to make a music video for Clear, that track would get my vote.

really starting to dig Nollys track, I imagine this is what it would bel like instead of tesseract being influenced by meshuggah, meshuggah were influenced by tesseract (the first half of the song).
(the first half of the song).

I dunno about y'all, but I kinda dig that Extraneous is not like anything Periphery has ever put out. The point of the EP is kinda exactly that, in my eyes - each song is to be understood in its own context, with respect to every band member. I'm drawing blanks whenever I try to think of any band that has done anything like 'Clear', so in that respect, hats off to you guys.
Seeing as Periphery has managed to become a supergroup of some of the coolest, most likeminded guys in this little niche genre of "prog metal" (using the term very loosely), I think it's awesome that they did something like that. Each member brings something new to the table, and what better way to showcase that fact then to put out a collection of songs that each person can call theirs, while still keeping it relatively similar in regards to the band they all are grouped in?
I think it's pretty badass personally. Periphery has gone through some cool changes since their self-titled finally dropped, but it makes sense to me that they've accumulated a roster of a bunch of like-minded dudes who really have tons of talent. Being that I'm in a band currently that has lots of chemistry not just musically, but on a personal level of just being really good friends, it's nice to know that even though your music tastes may differ slightly, the fact you all get along just makes the songwriting process that much more streamlined.
Wordy post, I know, but that's what I have to say about Clear/the state of Periphery now.

Thanks! This is what I have tabbed out so far (some sections are missing in between). I noticed that your tab was for Jake's Pickup video but in the song he recorded some of the riffs differently. Nonetheless, I used your tab as a starting point
