Misha Mansoor

In May 2013, Mansoor announced that he would be working on his first solo album, which would be written, performed and produced entirely by himself, with the assistance of some guest performers. A projected release has not been decided upon yet by him.

Mansoor's career as a producer started when he produced and co-wrote the Animals as Leaders self titled album and since then he has produced bands such as Veil of Maya, Born of Osiris, Being and Stray From the Path. He formed a production company called Top Secret Audio in 2013 with Adam "Nolly" Getgood, his former Periphery bandmate.

Misha Mansoor (born October 31, 1984), also known as Bulb after the name of his solo project, is the founder and lead guitarist of the progressive metal band Periphery. He is also part of the studio project Haunted Shores (featuring Periphery guitarist Mark Holcomb) and the hardcore punk project Snuggles (which features former Periphery bassist Adam "Nolly" Getgood), as well as being involved in the projects Of Man, Not Of Machine (a trio consisting of him, ex-TesseracT and ex-Sky Eats Airplane singer Elliot Coleman and Mark Holcomb) and Four Seconds Ago (an electronic project with his Periphery bandmate Jake Bowen). Mansoor is seen as one of the forerunners of the djent movement and is often erroneously attributed with the invention of the word itself (he attributes its invention to Meshuggah guitarist Fredrik Thordendal).
