Time for a new Devin thread, definitely. Anyway:

...writing and eating and shitting and sleeping
in rain or in shine
masturbate till i'm blind
in the cause and effect
of the one troubled segment
of time and the place and the look on your face
and I write and I eat and I shit and I sleep
yes I eat leafy greens nearly three times a week
and I'm not unafraid but no longer afraid of you anymore....

FIRST

now...

ITS YOUR BIRTH DAY
ITS ON EARTH DAY
LIKE A CHILD YOU'RE BORN AGAIN
LITTLE CHILD YOU'RE BORED AGAIN

ITS YOUR WORST FUCKING DAY
ITS ON EARTH DAY
LITTLE LIES TO COVER UP
PLEASE MAKE YOUR MIND UP

AND...EEEEEEEEEEEEAT YOUR BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEATS

Devin certainly has a way with words. And music. And pure excellence.

EDIT: Oh, by the way Kev: Send me a song for my roulette.

Deadhead is his best song Addicted is his best album.

Now we have that out of the way. I think the last thread should've been renamed "The Devin Townsend Pirate Ship thread"

As much as I love Addicted, I can't say it is better than Terria. I had to do a 90-minute round trip drive the other day, so I listened to Terria from start to finish, and was not only reminded of what an awesome record it is in general, but what an awesome driving record it is.

73109 · « **Reply #5 on:** February 13, 2011, 07:10:18 PM »

Terria is the best them, with Addicted and Ziltoid very close behind.

SMASHER!!

Addicted is good, I think I like it more than Ki, but not by a huge margin.

Ocean Machine is arguably my favorite, that or Terria.

Still don't own Ziltoid, and I haven't heard it either. I know, I know...I fail.

Devy hinted in replying to a fan he's touring with "COB" this summer. Who is COB? Children Of Bodom?

@dvntownsend I heard you were touring with Children Of Bodom this year. Is that true?

I would have been excited for such a thing back when Bodom was a cool death metal-ish band, but now I can't help but weep for the welfare of the I.Q. of Devy's fanbase.

ClairvoyantCat · « **Reply #24 on:** February 13, 2011, 10:02:09 PM »

I just hope he doesn't pick up any COB fans from it. As long as he doesn't play many redundant guitar solos he should be fine.

Seriously, tell me this after Follow the Reaper or even Hatecrew Deathroll I would have been

Now it's like

Especially because you know Devin is going to be the opening band and that's disgraceful.

I mean if it helps him get more fans I'm all for it. I want him to do well.

GOD
DAMN
IT

I came into this thread because just talking about Devy makes everything feel awesome. Then I read this CoB news. I am not looking forward to the influx of scene kids getting into Devy because of his "screaming" vocals.

WHY CAN'T CHILDREN OF BODOM BE GOOD ANYMORE?

Fuzzboy · « **Reply #28 on:** February 13, 2011, 10:30:30 PM »

If I were him, I'd play only material from Ghost and The Hummer just to piss the COB fans off.

He probably wants a successful tour though.

Genowyn · « **Reply #29 on:** February 13, 2011, 10:38:29 PM »

He should just play a set of Strapping material, and all the Bodom fans will die because it's too heavy.

Quadrochosis · « **Reply #30 on:** February 13, 2011, 10:47:09 PM »

lol at this thread already. Last time I listened, CoB were bad, but they weren't garbage. It's not the end of the world, and Devin has played with far worse before.

Clearly you never heard Blooddrunk.

Because if this was going to be a show comprised of all Hatebreed and Follow the Reaper material, that would be kickass, but you know that's never happening

The number of people he's been thanking on twitter recently is getting insane. I really hope the "Thanks Mikael!" means exactly what I hope it means.

EDIT:

Quote from: Dev on his forum

Heyo, there's simply too many vocals on the record and it had begun to sound tedious with one voice, so I'm hoping that these voices can be textures.

So far, it sounds perfect.

Holy shit! Ihsahn, Akerfeldt and Devin on the same album doing vocals. My boner just went through several walls in front of me.

Ultimetalhead · « **Reply #34 on:** February 14, 2011, 05:03:16 AM »

He's got some serious vocal talent on this one. I wonder if there will be any females.
