Spikes is a former visualization for Windows Media Player versions 7-10. It is in the Bars and Waves Family, and it featured round circles that would stretch out when music was being played. Unfortunately, like Ambience, Particle, Plenoptic, and Spikes was removed because it couldn't handle Video Card support for versions 11 and 12

Color Variations[]

The "Spike" preset is usually yellow. However, In WMP 7, 8, and skin mode of 9 and 10, the "Spike" preset is red.
