@issofunky Devin Townsend makes heavy music, not deep music. He wrote a concept album about an alien who comes to earth to find the ultimate cup of coffee. Not deep, just good. Don't get me wrong, I like Muse, but a band that uses piano and sings in falsetto isn't exactly the same time of music.
I wouldn't say his music is lacking in depth compared to most contemporary artists, though. As far as I know, his sense of ambiance as a sort of hidden driving force behind his music is unparalleled.
Also, b/c he likes to joke around and have fun doesn't mean there isn't any kind of serious analysis in there (or anywhere else in his huge back catalogue).
@issofunky This doesn't even sound like Muse at all, dumbass. Muse is good but there songs pretty much all sound the same for the most part. One of the best things about Devin is that his songs rarely sound like each other.
@bullo247 Im not denying he can write some other awesome stuff in other genres, but his Metal has and always will be his most influential and epic music.
@NachoNinja listen to his other stuff. just about everything is different trust me. check out the album Ki and compare it to this one and see the differences.
Holy shit... that drum intro sounded like Mike Portnoy waking up in the morning. Excellent intro. and awesome song. DT is awesome and they're all well trained musical geniuses. If you can make something so worthy of good commentary then you have a musical gift. Devin is a gifted man indeed. Hard hitting and worthy of recognition for sure.
Hey, I'm a huge fan of ALL of Devin's work, whether it's the obvious brilliance in his work with Strapping, or his deviation from critical expectations with the DTB or the DTP or even his simply solo work. He's by far one of the most talented metal musicians in the business today, if not THE most talented. I know I'm going to love Deconstruction.

One of Devin's best albums next to Terria, Accelerated Universe and Ocean Machine.
Oh, and City, if you count SYL.

Devin Townsend: Omnidimensional guitar hero
Rammsoldat 1 year ago 2
Devin is slowly returning to his heavier roots.
the metal is oozing out of his locked soul.
its starting to escape, he cant help it.
no matter how hard he tries, Devin Townsend will always be a metal musician.
