Periphery’s “Prayer Position” is pure chaos sculpted into precision. Pulled from their critically acclaimed album *Periphery III: Select Difficulty*, this track is one of the most aggressive and technically demanding songs in the band’s catalog. It’s a masterclass in tight rhythmic interplay, off-the-grid guitar phrasing, polyrhythms, and percussive riffing that punches harder with every measure. Players and producers alike have cited this track as a cornerstone in modern progressive metal production and performance.
At the console is Adam “Nolly” Getgood, a former guitarist of Periphery and one of the most respected mixers in the modern metal scene. His mixes are known for surgical clarity without ever sacrificing raw energy or feel. Nolly’s work—done at his own GetGood Sound studio—focuses heavily on phase coherence, transient detail, hyper-detailed drum editing, and massive low-end that still feels controlled and intentional.
This session exposes just how much is going on under the hood. Cloaked in knife-edge distortion and layered guitar parts, “Prayer Position” demands precision automation moves, overhead-phase management, and novel saturation choices to let each element translate. You’ll work through insanely fast drum bursts, tightly gated and EQ’d snares and kicks, multi-layered scream vocals with minimal room, and big open leads that somehow don’t clash. The challenge here is not avoiding clutter—it’s how to make the chaos feel focused.
Download the multitracks and test your chops against Nolly’s. This is one of the heaviest, most complex Nail The Mix sessions we’ve ever done, and the learning payoff is huge.
