The Devin Townsend Supermegathread!

[Psychobuddy]

Which one do you like better?

Devin's heavier Strapping Young Lad style stuff or his softer more emotional side, Ki for example.

Personally I'm more into introspective Devin.

 

[MSalonen]

Same here.

But I think my favorite is when they almost intersect, like on Accelerated Evolution and Ocean Machine. Addicted, too.

 

[13point9]

I really like both tbh but i think introspective just pips the mark for me...

 

[AcousticMinja]

Yeah, I like introspective Devin more.
He seems a lot happier that way, too.

 

[Andrewsonfire]

SYL will allways be one of my favorite bands, DTB and SYL make me proud to be canadian. I think im going with SYL because of gene hoglan though.

 

[MF_Kitten]

i love his latest stuff to death!

 

[AlucardXIX]

Give me Almost Again any day over old school SYL. Still love City, Alien more so. I'd have to say I've moved from an SYL-head to his solo stuff.

Not sure I like the guy at all... But given that this thread probably has a lot of ppl in it that know his catalog fairly well would anyone mind posting youtube vids of his heavy "good" heavy stuff vs his "good" introspective stuff?

Might also make the thread a lil more interesting if there were something to listen to

 

[Tyrant]

Hevy Devy...but I like all of his shit really =)

that is all

 

[Konfyouzd]

Heavy






Introspective

See I like some of those songs a lot more than whatever the fuck it is I found before. Or maybe my tastes have just changed a bit.

Heavy

I still think this is the heaviest song ever.

 

[Triple-J]

I only really like Devin's introspective stuff as I've tried to listen to his heavier material and I really want to like it but it's way too sonically dense and totally relentless, it's hard to explain but it just feels like an impenetrable wall of sound that doesn't have any cracks in it to reel me in and get me into the tunes.

 

[Antimatter]

I like Introspective better.

 

[Psychobuddy]

I'm glad I'm not alone, I like SYL a fair deal but there's a joy I get out of just Devin.

I haven't been able to get Addicted yet, anyone want to tell me what it's like.

Also bald Devin or Skullet Devin?

 

[ry_z]

I love both, but I'd have to say introspective as well.

It sounds like this!

That's my favorite Devy song ever, and one of my favorite songs of all time.

Bald. And introspective, have no idea why

Thanks MSalonen for the Addicted songs.

Also thanks to ry_z for reminding me I have to put Accelerated Evolution on my iPod.
