The Devin Townsend Band - Life

[goohsm]

the "life" yelling part at the beginning was so gay lol

[k5lta]

@goohsm how?

[jettablak]

Good tune...you would think FM radio stations would have played this to death. Guess they couldn't fit it in with all the Nickleback and Godsmack they forced down our throats.

[o0ZporK0o]

This sounds pretty good for just 360p

[CaffeinatedSnorlax]

Johnny Gat Dies

[stonersid]

who mentioned bon jovi........and wheres my knuckleduster..!!

[91Tribual]

"LIFE!!"

[megaterra69]

lol wtf, this is soooo cheesy, but its so from the heart that It's good. This is the only guy who can take poppy melodies and make them good. Lovin devins stuff. The guys great.

[CareyPortnoyBeauford]

devin is the S#%T

[Injektedchaos3]

This is like if you took Fear Factory and made them have sex with nirvana.... this would be the child.... a weird 90's band.

[bobthebath]

sorry cant believe no1s noticed the GIANT T-SHIRT he's wearing haha, awesome song :D

[TheHappyFaceBoxMan]

@bobthebath

Maybe it's one Gene's that got mixed up in the laundry.

[Giganotabehemoth87]

@TheHappyFaceBoxMan hahaha !

[Epsilonic]

A shame that he cut out half of the solo (the fast part) and they only seemed to play the rhythm guitar throughout the song. None-the-less still one of my most beloved Devy songs. He has such a unique and beautiful sound, I hope he never stops making music in my lifetime.

[Iconlast]

fucking love this song!!!

[Scythien981]

See you on the Other Side!

[Hauntti]

9 dislikes???? WTF?

[LeTinctoire]

0:32 to 0:38 made me snicker. I have such a Devy sense of humour ._.

[munkeyWITHbeard]

@LeTinctoire why have i not noticed that before ive watched this video countless times i even have the bonus dvd from synchestra somewhere if i knew where it was i wouldnt be watching it on here lol

[wosko]

I think Devin divides the real metalheads from the posers

[ROCK2LIVE4EVER]

Great Song

[Necrobilou]

One of the best song in the history of music, not less

[eleven59]

Having seen him play this song just last night, the difference in him is almost shocking between then and now. He actually looks happy and excited to be playing music now, and this song has a whole new energy. Watching this DVD now is very strange.

[DankDan42]

when i first heard this song i was like wft is this? wasn't too pumped on it, but now... i freaking love it! but ocean machine version is better.

[xdyingfetusx69]

first 10 sec was coool but it got gay real quick

[angelofdeathsix66]

This is a true masterpiece! Hahaha you can tell hes blown in this video, haha the musics probably surging through his body like the blood he bleeds!

[DarthMohammed]

Eh, great song, no doubt... but the Ocean Machine version is way better.

[DankDan42]

@DarthMohammed i agree. i love the ocean machine version a lot more. but i freakin LOVE this song!

[zabel102359]

I really like the 0:01 to 4:26 part

[clubfootforyou]

So the keyboardist became the guitarist and the guitarist became the bassist on the current tour lineup?

[F3rgul]

Every hair on my body is erect!

[kiss200]

i like black and devy metal and wtf with it? devy is unique nobody can reach this guy's level

[samuraibambi]

Truly an anthem of life. Devtastic!

[hellbound66666666666]

yeah I bet your black metal shit is way more cool than this, another dumbass asshole

[musicalkaratekid]

the song that got me into the heart and mind of devin townsend...and this is one of his simpelst songs written! i still favour it to this day:)

[Motosuna1982]

"..and you know it weeeull!"....all to well mighty Dev. :P

[666Marduk999]

This is like bon jovi, but worse

[OHmygodXoBil3]

@666Marduk999

... Bon jovi is so overrated. This guy has so much more depth in his music , and honestly this doesnt sound like bon jovi at all so i dont know where you got that notion.

[666Marduk999]

@OHmygodXoBil3 This sounds exactly like bon jovi and Devins music is very shallow

[OHmygodXoBil3]

@666Marduk999

Lol, you don't have an ear for music, sorry.

[666Marduk999]

@OHmygodXoBil3 You dont have ears for genres.

[OHmygodXoBil3]

@666Marduk999

haha good one, im done arguing theres no way to get an online troll to change his mind.

[xdyingfetusx69]

@666Marduk999 agreed this shit sux

[bovinemarauder]

@xdyingfetusx69 Hahah too bad for you!

[mushrmhd6661]

@666Marduk999 wow people are right.. you really dont know shit about music do you? Bon Jovi?? are you kidding? you dont have an ear for music...

[4through6strings]

thank you dev

[TheeShorty86]

Devin Townsend truely is a genious!

[mkklmann]

"confused devin" pointing at cameras, haha..... lost in his own music-land

[olives639]

I hope I see all of you on the other side.

[BlackMetalOV666]

Yeah My Life.....Genius.

[kornminded666]

Ocean Machine Was Fucking Godly

[musicalkaratekid]

one of the insanely catchiest songs devin townsend has ever written..but its so damn uplifiting as well.genius:D

and to the guy that said this was too pussy...*big fuck you*

[angusruler]

exactly!

dev IS the most versatile man in rock.....hands down.

[victimofmetal]

@angusruler and metal...and ambient lol

[landofthespace]

you will never have sex with a woman.

[Harrly19]

i love 0:34 -0:38 part haha))

[landofthespace]

yeah that's where you kill yourself because you thought that was so cool

[Alhambrattp]

To pussy...we need SYL back!

[bokma7]

LIFE!

[dinkeldal]

prachtig wat een emotie!!!

[ChimChimandChimaira]

I miss the skullet, but I can't help but feel happy for the dude now that he's really back on track [Lifewise, of course. He was always a fucking amazing musician and songwriter.]

[koruptkitty]

'see you on the other side'

love that line xD

[bokma7]

LIFE

[chasezas]

to be completely honest, this isn't a very good performance of his. =/

[koruptkitty]

i kind of agree, usually most of devin's live stuff sounds like a studio recording

[fortykebabs]

true,but any average performance of his is beter then most bands who think there the shit

[ICommunistToasterI]

Yeah, pretty much. It's missing that catchy orchestrated melody, and Devin's vocals seem a bit lazy. :(

[abyssalspecter93]

@ICommunistToasterI I agree

[Jackoroth]

Now that's a big shirt.

[GhostGuitars]

Fuckin mahoosive

[Terradreamer]

As depressing a comment as it is to leave XD

This is the song I want to be carried in to at my funeral...

but that won't be for years yet so hey! =D

[Slayerfied4evr]

I want "The Death of Music" so Signifiy the death of me :P

[CyanideSovereign]

You must have a high oppinion of yourself!

[Slayerfied4evr]

I Love me :)

[CyanideSovereign]

Me too!

[Slayerfied4evr]

You Love me? Groovy \m/

[CyanideSovereign]

I've been stalking you for years. You really must get a doctor to look at that rash....

[Slayerfied4evr]

I have done...I got it from a member of your family but to save any disputes and fallings out with them, I wont mention which one =]

[CyanideSovereign]

I walked into that one carrying a "kick me" sign...

[Slayerfied4evr]

Indeed....

[STIXAHOY]

Devin is a musician in the highest order

[duffeknol]

By far my fav song by Dev out of everything he's ever done. And I've heard everything.

[Otium83]

love when he points at cameras but it doesnt work lol. thank you dev

[metallicat67]

Devin<333333333

[Bagas]

A classic piece.

This song is the anthem of life.

[panterarized99]

thats what i like in heavy musicians....its that they can write a u2-rem oriented song better than them but u know they can kick your ass anytime with they re heavy stuff.....fuck u2. thx Devin.

[kerryannedramaqueen]

I totally agree!

DEVY MEATAL!

WHOEVER DOSNT LIKE DEVIN TOWNSEND IS FULLY A FREEEEK!

Visit my channel if u like Devy!

[adrianvdb]

0:40 epic facepalm thinking

[CyanideSovereign]

This is not Metal.

It is Devy Metal.

[alexkooy]

@CyanideSovereign Not metal but devy metal....

Stil metal mate.

but a genre in metal.

[morbidblessings7]

@alexkooy dude you're so stupid......

[CyanideSovereign]

@alexkooy The greatest ov all Metal!

[jackscarey]

@CyanideSovereign LOL you have just invented a new subgenre! and only one band will be in there....amazing

[bladzerok]

wow, it is such a weird song, the melody and overall theme sounds happy, but the sound of instruments is definitely metal oriented, with really high gain on guitars. it sounds cool but i needed to get used to it.

[ilynl]

devin e semplicemente un genio!

[edgar587]

d'accordissimo!

[Phyxius666]

Wow you girls would find anything to yell at each other about wouldn't you. Grow up and dont do this in front of Devin

[bokma7]

best part: 0:01

[casey19666]

DEVIN 4 PRESIDENT!!!

[1337dav31337]

LIFE!!!

[Kadzait1]

Wow, in this song I actually heard devin sing in such a soft voice. His vocals are great! Its just too bad he isnt recognized for his greatness.

Very good song. Devin creates his songs to go deep. Genius.

[InMeRaven]

This is a great live version, I just miss the lead guitar part that was during the chorus-ishy part but needs some "I'LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE"! I can only briefly hear 2 :P

[MoribundFantasy]

I'll see you on the other side

[Dryerlintproduction]

U GUYS SUCK

[ReapingJuggernaut]

its odd but i really like this song!

[stonersid]

easy cheese, firstly im commenting on the whole media's idea of selling inane music made by preformed plastic people with perfect teeth and lots of plastic.

secondly i find it sad that a genius like devin is shackled in such that radio and tv mainly shun him, and prefer to play simplistic boy/girl band music.

heaviness as you call it, well, i like the extremist death grind, ..right through to classical, psychadelia, electro, glam rock, whatever. whereas you cant spell and say fag a lot!

[stonersid]

among the elites you are devin, a monster on your own realm, amazing how 95% of people have never heard of him, i guess theyre all watching mtv, drooling over the latest profit making boy/girl band, spread the word there is a world outside the commercial sugary drinks selling music industry

[kiss200]

@stonersid agreed 

[ferserk]

ocean machine great band great project great devin!!!

[Nakasoul]

Devin is a legendary genius and a very good singer too

[Nem33]

shut up idiot

[johnnyhazard07]

ziltoid was released under devin townsend dumbass

[snipingcheese]

Ok smart ass. There is more to music than just the heaviness. I have no idea where you got the idea that soft music or music that is not heavy is "faggy". This song alone shows the musical capabilities that this man has.

I KNOW FOR A FACT just by reading your comment that you have absolutely NO idea about music. You have no right to make such a comment. I don't know what other bands you like, but I GUARANTEE that they would not approve of your attitude.

Go fuck yourself.

Thank you.

[explosiveshrooms]

wow great use of caps lock, moron

[snipingcheese]

I caps-locked 3 words dickhead.

Is that the best comeback you have? I hope it didn't take 2 months for you do come up with that...

I noticed that its not on topic either. You know you are wrong, and that your comment was ignorant and idiotic.

Now who is the moron?

[aligatorsandwitch72]

the Ziltoid album is mostly stuff like this idiot.

[explosiveshrooms]

wow you're a fucking tard if you think ziltoid sounds like this. and btw i actually like this song, it was my friend that made the initial comment... but still, ziltoid is nothing like this song.

[coolhandluke2401]

soo good. ZTO is friggin awesome too

[adrianvdb]

Where can i buy the new album when it releases? Only the hevydevy site?

[Terracidal]

Can't fucking wait for the new album.

[DeadPandaTits]

what new album dude?

there isnt going to be one

Devin Tonwsend Band doesnt exist anymore

[Terracidal]

I was referring to Devin Townsend solely.

[DeadPandaTits]

ahh my bad dude

I cant wait either, Ziltoid was amazing

[ViperRob42]

the new 4 album townsend project starting with Ki, it'll be good times =)

[DeadPandaTits]

its quite different from his usual stuff though

[ViperRob42]

no, the 2nd n 3rd album are going to be Ziltoid/SYLish and the first is alot like another ambient cd he released years ago, only diff now is hes doing music sober and with diff musicians

[rhinoqu420]

he just said on his official myspace page that he release a series of 4 album that are going to be release this summer, the first ablums according to him that are not influence by pot and other "things" should be interesting, i hope they will be just as creative as his other albums. Oh i believe he has new band members, i think

[the1Fenrir]

You should check the teaser on his myspace, it's awesome

[tobylove666]

and he doesnt sweep on the end of the solo probably because its just impossible to do 2 times in a lifetime XD

[feelmyice]

lollllllll

LIFE!

[Aniland]

I love this song, but there are some big flaws in this video. He leaves out the very best part, "I'LL SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE!" and he doesn't sing with that much power. Makes me sad.

[ArcanVmXII]

Can't wait for the next album. Dev says it's the best thing he's done so far. Way over the top. I think he said it's going to be called Ka.

[StyggoSebastian]

Close.. Ki

[acledmaiden]

Music has the power to make you feel good, take you to a wonderful place and can inspire you in life. Devin's music does all three at the same time.

[Hardbandit]

With this song he showed a whole new side, at least for me since im used to Strapping Young Lad

[TRO0PER1987]

Devin is genius !!

[bacardibmx]

still think he should go back to strapping young lad

[Mihraeyu]

As good as SYL are I prefer his solo work more so I hope he keeps releasing albums like these and I'll be pleased :)

[Cervy18]

True that. I love his solo stuff more than anything else he has done!

[frogtheone]

mmm.. if u didn´t know, he is still playing with SYL.. the last album was last year (The new black.. a great album, also).

[bacardibmx]

Byron Stroud, Jed Simon, and Gene Hoglan are not in SYL any more! there in Nimmers Hole now!!

[frogtheone]

Yeah, but u said Devin should go back to SYL, and he's still playing with them.. he has never left syl.

[MassDeicide]

No, Devin disbanded SYL right after Ziltoid, they are no more.

[Scaperottica]

in an interview, devin said he wants to go back on tour and start again. he finished his next solo album Ki. Cant wait for it

[boynamedsu18]

*Zimmers Hole, sir.

But either ways, I hope Dev decides to keep something with SYL going.

[kornminded666]

This man is God

[Lewis512]

Spread the word, my friend. He is a god amongst men.

[UserNameForYeeTube]

Devin's 'Ocean Machine: Biomech' is such an awesome and unique album.

[poopvayne]

couldn't agree with you more,everything about that album is just pure amazing,from Seventh Wave to The Death of Music and Things Beyond Things.......damn i'm gonna go listen to it right now!!!it should be in every music fans collection along with everything else Devin puts out

[slosh77]

i love just stumbling across great bands while surfing youtube, and this band is definitely one of them, keep on rocking crazy mother fuckersssss!

[bmiha]

nice riff ,relaxing song ,good voice

5 stars

[hellman100]

Amazing.....this guy wrote love? too?!? hes ranged

[mnemicmachine]

Sheer brilliance

[adrianvdb]

thats a gibson. right?

[gaunten]

most likely.

[gaunten]

just came to think of that he uses ESP quite a lot in SYL, but I don't know about here...

[Jaymz515]

Indeed it is a Gibson SG, you can make out the name on the headstock as he turns away from the mic at the beginning.

Unless I am sorely, sorely mistaken.

[TAZ8593]

well it says gibson on the headstock... So i think its a fender

[thedarkchef1987]

hahahaha yep....

[RussianPartisan]

Dawn. Devin's voice is something else...

[RussianPartisan]

Oopsie, I mean "Damn" =)

[tacityrn]

and ultimately it is that good lol.

[tacityrn]

i can listen to his music anytime but sometimes it's just too good lol i hear it when im tryin to sleep but i dont mind that cuz it's better than some shit i think bout b4 i sleep lol

[tacityrn]

probably just tired as hell from playin all the other songs lol but that's life.

[schwarg]

devin looks high in this video

[KryptoniteTearDrop]

No matter how many times I hear this song it never gets tiresome.Townsend is a real musician,take note modern "rock" groups.

[Sonodoit]

Devin does Namaste here? (I saw it in the last couple of seconds on the video).

I must see Namaste live!!

[ryanturnmire]

this is awesome i wasnt a fan of strapping young lad but this is awesome

[immortalgram]

I love this tune!!!!!!!

[OnlyOnBass]

This is embarrassingly bad. There are probably like, 10 better versions of Life on Youtube at this very moment. So we KNOW he can do the song, and do it well. It's such a fantastic song, why would he put THIS on a DVD?

[guitarsamuraiV56]

Whats bad about it?

[sergio19871]

he doesn't, that's just his sense of humour...
