devin townsend c/d

opening track super nice imo

Yah it’s frontloaded

off the back of relistening to everything/listening to the ones i didnt get to, i've been listening to the podcasts he did during lockdown, which are basically a chronological and very in depth look at each album. So far just up to terria but it's probably some of the most honest and self exposing autobio work i've heard from a musician. well worth checking out. first one here:

yeah those pods are very good... long tho.

I like the whole of Lightwork! really a great listen

if i could like convince the guy to do a tour and perform Ocean Machine-Biomech in its entirety though i'd die happy

Haven't seen it myself, sort of took a Devin break for a few years, but I'm feeling the twitching. I'll have to check it out.
(And the end of the Live at the Royal Albert Hall show, the Ocean Machine triptych finale as it were, is mind blowing. I've never seen him live but I need to.)

I saw him on the metal cruise in 2020 and he played a wiiiide range of material but he stunned us with "All Hail the New Flesh" and "Detox" from City.
