Pussypussypussypussypussypussy omm nom nom nom :rofl:

Boobies!

Cause he like has anything in common with the Dream Theater ****s at all:

A Townsend ****post:

I wonder how the people here who are dissing on Townsend would have responded (being the same age they are today) if transported back to 1972 and listening to Billy The Mountain by Zappa and The Mothers for the first time.

:laughing:

Agreed

Yeah, cause he's got so much in common with Dream Theater right?

He's only been associated with prog bands because of his management giving him festival shows with several prog bands (you know, Opeth, Symphony X, Periphery, Between The Buried And Me, Cynic etc) but it's unfair, considering that only a small fragment of his work is actually "prog rock/metal".

His albums "Infinity", "Ziltoid The Omniscient" and the deliberate "Deconstruction" (which contains a song called The Mighty Masturbator btw) are his most proggy musically but his sound has so much more to do with alternative rock, industrial metal, indian music, new age music, than prog rock.

Am I talking to myself? yes I am. I'll find the door and take it with me when I do renovations on my ex's house...

They're both cheesy new age prog figureheads that excel in drearily pointless music that is technically proficient. If you really can't catch the similarities then I don't think you focus enough on the music you listen to. In any event, I hope this opens some doors for you and Dream Theater mate.

I already know both their entire discographies :rofl:

Devin Townsend's music isn't "technically proficient" in the virtuosic sense (with the exception of Deconstruction which in part is a parody of prog metal)
