Devin Townsend is a ****ing hero. Really need to listen to his stuff in more depth, I've heard most of SYL and Accelerated Evolution (one of my all time fave albums), Ki, Addicted, Ziltoid. Need to listen to more of the solo stuff.

Saw him (and met him,briefly!) at bloodstock a few days ago. One of the best live performances I've seen in a long time.

Do yourself a very huge favor and check out his earlier solo stuff, you won't regret it at all if you the Devin Townsend Project material!

I'm pretty sure it's Deconstruction, and the other one coming out in May is Ghost.

Oops, my mistake, and yeah, I am really anxious to hear both albums!

The world needs these albums. I honestly think that Devy has the potential to change the planet with his beautiful music. I can't stress enough how excited I am for the final DTP albums, as well as Z2.

All my fellow Devin Townsend fans will appreciate this, for sure.





I've never been more excited for an album in my life. The word epic is overused these days, but these will truly be epic.

Artwork for Ghost:


Devin says that he will be delivering the master-tracks to the record company on March 1, so it's quite possible both Ghost and Deconstruction could be released before May, which was the date given to us before.

I'm so excited for this!

I found a leak of his album, Deconstruction, which is set for release in late June, if anyone's interested. It is beyond incredible. My favorite track atm is "Stand", but I'ma have to give it a few more listens (the entire album I mean) before I can be sure.

Here's the link: Devin Townsend Project - Deconstruction It's streaming, not a download, so those of you scared of downloads can rest easy. I hope you have as much fun with it as I am.

I'm really excited for Deconstruction and Ghost's release, and I would probably buy them right when they come out.

Too bad I'll be in California when they do. :<
