The Fluke-Devin Townsend

[Schuldiner1982]

Kinda embarrassed I discovered his music about two weeks ago. Every song I listen to gets better than the previous. Just bought 5 CDs. Had to, the guy is a fucking musical genius!

[iseeu1980]

@Schuldiner1982 welcome to the realm of Devin!

[kingfullmetal]

@Schuldiner1982 I know what you mean. I went to a concert on July 5, 2011. It was a CoB show, and I had never heard any of the bands. Devin came on stage and literally blew me away. I was next to the pit and got smashed into the wall because I let my guard down, due to the fact that I was sucked into the music. Saw him on Oct. 8, 2011, front row, and now I am about two seconds away from buying the last album I don't have by him... XD

[tomalophicon]

NO one else would have the guts NOR the skills to pull-off this Futurustic Pop Metal!

[80smetalchild]

@tomalophicon

"futuristic pop metal" i like that.

god damnit i love this song so much. one of the best on terria! very underrated song

[Micromusecut]

and my fave part is definitely 2:52-3:10 sounds like a heavenly choir!

[dinkeldal]

geniaal GENIUS dit is waar voor wij leven! Devin Thanks

[therealpsp1mp]

@3:22

….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…"

[OneTripleZero]

@therealpsp1mp Awesome, I've always wondered what he was saying there, and once you have the lyrics in front of you, you can hear it all crystal clear. Thanks!

[ChrisXDumbass]

I have every one of his albums, and I have to say, there is not one single shitty song on any of them, Devin is a fucking genius, and how he does what he does is beyond me, he just blows my mind every single goddamn time, and I can't fucking wait for GHOST, and Deconstruction!

[clockwerkkilla420]

Has a kind of industrial feel to it. The Devin Townsend Project blew my fuckin' mind live. So incredibly intellectually efficient at creating technical music

[abyssalspecter93]

I don't like the ter- SHUT UP, and listen to the fucking song. Jesus fucking Christ.

[jburde]

@abyssalspecter93 Thank you, I deleted that bullshit :P

[weevilboy]

3:24 to 4:00 are my favorite musical moments EVER

[dacpt]

@weevilboy I don't normally comment on Youtube but the bit you mention is probably the most epically beautiful piece of music I've ever know.

I wholeheartedly concur with your statement.

[Synthustrial]

[MegaNoobee]

[Nac017]

Timeless

[jaysteinhauer]

yes this guy is the real deal i got this and ocean machine on backorder and i own infinity i need Accelerated Evolution and Synchestra i have to hear Ziltoid and addicted but to some up my rant from first note ive been hooked like crack to this guy lol

[thatfuckingtank]

Ocean Machine is a fucking phenomenal album, you won't be disappointed. I still get goosebumps every time I listen to Life and Funeral.

[dran219]

devin townsend is my idol and is a genious at guitar

[dinkeldal]

this man is a GENIUS

[ANOLDMANONCRACK]

SUCH AN UNDERRATED ARTIST!!!!! Kick ass prog metal song!

[deadpisser88]

Amazing that this is Gene on drums.

[arseymcpherson]

1:23 is immense.

[nicklasmx]

the firt song i hear of devin my face was :O :O :O :O

my firt thing was OMFG!!!!

[Chazz8Zelda]

I can't wait to see Devin next year at Bloodstock, fucking genius of a man and Terria is easily my favourite Devin album.

Long live mr Townsend, and Snorkle.

[subhumanmaster]

magical

[tonydwolf]

so i was looking it up and GENE HOGLAN is one of the bands drummers he was in this album and in a few other...

\

[jburde]

Woops, He drummed in SYL, and on Terria, Infinity and Physicist

[Bassbait]

@jburde Not to mention his amazing work in Death!

[Rama1118]

I like most of his softer and his heavier shit. SYL is great, and so is this album.

[JebacMiro]

:3 I likey

[Jagguar20]

I love this song, Devy is a true artist! But what does "Fluke" means? SOrry my english is teh suck.

[jburde]

LoL it's cool, it means like a failure, or a mistake.

[Jagguar20]

Thanks man!

I'm buying Terria this week, It's going to be hell of a ride.

[jburde]

Hell yeah! Amazing choice, is this your first album of Devy's solo work?

[Jagguar20]

Yup. I found out about Devy some months ago, in december. Been trying to find his albums since then (I'm in Mexico) but there are no stores that sell them.... except for the HevyDevyRecords store, so I'm buying it off there.

I may also get Alien and City from SYL.

[Aeonboom]

Then as a word of advice...Check out "Ocean Machine" Some of his best stuff is on there.

Grats on joining the cult of Devy the Genius hehe

[Jagguar20]

Thanks. I'll do.

As of right now, Terria is giving me truly wonderfull moments. Nobody's Here and Earth Day are so great.

[Aeonboom]

Nobody's Here is my all time favourite track by Devy at the moment =) Good call dude!

Though I have loads of favourites hehe. That one is just pure genius.

[jburde]

The solo to Nobody's Here is beautiful.

[Jagguar20]

Indeed bro. It kills me everytime I listen to it, it's so special.

[UserNameForYeeTube]

I'll sign this, the whole album's awesome, full of wonderful moments and beautiful soundscapes all throughout the album, from start to finish.

[Aniland]

Ocean Machine, Terria, and Accelerated Evolution are (IMO) the best Devin releases.

[geriatrickoala]

i'd (personally) rate infinity over accelerated evolution but i dont think dev has done a bad album ever, some say physicist is his worst but after a few weeks of listening to that album i loved it, equally as strong as the others

[anagram81]

Quite the contrary; it means a [fortunate] happenstance.

[KrashKtS]

Um, actually, "fluke" is usually referred to as accomplishing something through luck alone, or at least with a large amount of luck involved.

A full-court swish in basketball could be considered a fluke.

Winning the lottery is a fluke.

Narrowly escaping a bad car accident could be considered a fluke.

[jamiepollington]

basicly it means "luck" :)

[martyozz]

devin-made in hell:))

[Skizofisticated]

this song is awesome, especially the layerd part after (nananana) thats truely amazing!

[jburde]

Chanting after Na na na's :

"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!"

[DLGenesis]

i dunno whether this songs coming or going. its everywhere xD. fucking sweet

[Jorsalfar]

This song really builds up, I like that. Devy is the master!

[atombebi]

eh....the 27th listened time.....break, handle, occasion, opportunity, peg, slant....you know!

[atombebi]

it's the 27th time

[jburde]

Eh? What's the 27th time?

[DLGenesis]

[atombebi]

I like 0:00 to 7:17. AWESOME!!!!!

(évszám - from Hungary :)

[UnwrittenPaul]

[Matt08642]
