Devin Townsend

Anyone here a fan of his? Strapping Young Lad, Inifinity, etc? ( I put etc cuz he has so many damn albums i don't want to type them all out, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devin_Townsend_discography ). I, personally, am a HUGE fan of Devin's work aside from his ambient stuff, since that doesn't do anything for me. But everything else is truly godlike in my eyes, in recent years he has become my all time favorite musician since he sings, plays, writes, produces, I mean look at Ziltoid The Omniscient, that album was done by him in its entirety!!!

I dig most of his stuff

I like to listen to his stuff on shrooms, like "solar winds" & "hyperdrive" back to back, it blows my mind.

i like to climb trees on shrooms

If i tried that i'd end up breaking my damn neck haha, i could barely muster up the strength to put out one of my smokes last time.

I actually have never listened to anything DT whilst tripping

seems like terria would give off good vibes

That Ziltoid album was mint.

yeah big fan here. been listening to strapping alot lately, city is absolutley phenominal. my favorite dtb album is accelerated evolution. addicted was cool and i can't wait to hear deconstruction...

addicted is an awesome album

"Love" has one of the greatest riffs of all time.

my fav devin/syl track :drums:

its rockin

glad to hear DT has plenty of fans here. My fav album has to be "City". But like i said, i like it all. He's been a large influence on my guitar playing.

the part that starts around 2:53 is godlike

Deconstruction is the upcoming twelfth studio album by Canadian musician Devin Townsend, and the third of four planned albums in The Devin Townsend Project series. Deconstruction will be the heaviest of Townsend's solo work to date. Townsend describes the album as having a central theme about some people's obessive love of heavy metal music, this being inspired by fans constantly pestering him to make a heavy record: Townsend stated in an interview that in response to the more subdued Ki there's a whole network of people that are like, "No no no no no! We only want heavy music, we only want chaotic music, we only want devilish, horrible, destructive music".



That part in bold made me laugh, I'm one of those people haha, but I do love Ki and Addicted and those albums aren't super heavy.

Send me some douse. I will give it another go.

been on a major Devin Townsend kick lately - SYL stuff is my favorite but love his solo stuff as well - absolutely great stuff to play at max volume driving - so many intricate parts - and he does this sonic boom bass sound once in a while that rattles every panel in the car

love how this song builds up quietly into a crushing epic riff
