Devin Townsend Project - Coast

[Warrison]

No offence as I'm a big Devin fan, but this is also Muse-esque.

That is intended as a compliment, I enjoy this as much as his most brutal stuff.

Seeing him live last month was a treat. Great show.

[rebelrebirth]

I honestly regard this man as one of my biggest idols, and only until recently. He completely understands the concept of music and denies "genre". He makes things that connect to you in the most intricate, yet raw way. It's like everything you wanted that you didn't even know you did. His music can be listened to by anyone of any age/background/economic class and still be deeply appreciated. Its mostly up to the person to take the time to listen to it.

[COBHC8890]

drugs or not.....Devin is a music god and his style in unheard of and no one can match him. Im a huge fan of SYL but his new stuff is epic and haunting i guess i whould say??!!? lol

[bulletofhate]

Devin RAPED bloodstock and made the sun comeout XD

[planetsmasherz101]

I can't believe anyone would say he should go back on drugs. I am so glad for him that he is sober now. And this is not tame. This song is wild all in its own way, and calm like a dream at the same time ~ perfect for meditation. There is such passion in this song, that I would say this is the Real Dev. Great job, Devin!

[ROONTANG]

Cool bassline!

[HandsomeDynamite]

This song is fucking cool!

[WidekMusic]

great song, especially the intro :)

[EvilGrouse]

Devin needs to get back on drugs. This stuff is really tame by comparison of his other works. Ambient music?? Ugh. Still new Devin though.

[SlappyTheElf]

Does it matter? This is just so chilled like drifting in a dreamstate......like floating.....

[ewanstatic2006]

I didn't think he was ever on drugs? Well, this is his expression, his music and it's brilliant either way!

[KendrickMan]

Man, he smokes so much weed. He there are plenty of videos on here of him being baked and such.

[endoftheline9]

dude. he went clean like back when he was in SYL. He's 100% sober now.

[Milesaru]

@KendrickMan He stopped smoking 2 years ago, long before he started DTP

[bonjovisgod]

very, very impressive

[IbanezDemon]

such a good song best on the album i think, anyone seen the clips on his page(poopynugeteer)of the new album?

the one with him singing a bunch of takes over and over is just unbelievable.

[ZAXOS84]

PASXALIS FOR EVER

[almightyseancore]

i was hoping this was the music video, but i was mistaken.

but you do have a maudlin of the well icon, and that made me smile.

[medicinerad]

kent fast på engelska. bra hur som helst.

han har tydligen rakat av sig sin fula frisyr också, det är fantastiskt!

[whitebeam]

Kent? KENT? Hur kan du säga att Devin låter som Kent, loool

[DemiseUnseen]

The first time I heard Terria years ago, I connected to something in Devs sound. His songs have changed the way I appreciate music. Im a huge fan with every one of his albums and then some. Ki is the perfect album at this point in his evolution. Serious, yet relaxed. Honest, mature, collected, confident, clear. Like a dream that you wake up from and feel almost that it connected the things youve been working on so long to progress to the next stage of your being. Thanks Devin for the therapy.

[mystique1721]

really well said. I enjoyed reading this :)

[whopperharpooneer]

@DemiseUnseen Dude, you read my fucking mind

[catpuke7]

HOLY! Magical COW! is he great!

[craveman58]

In regard to the comment that the album is "un-Dev", I would have to disagree. Having met Dev on several occasions it is clear to me that the ear-bleeding SYL stuff was rather forced for him to perform )although he did an immaculate job) and stuff like this was more what his personality is really about. As for the music not being as heavy, just keep listening. You'll be surprised how, after listening more, it is very heavy. Just heavy in a different way.

All Hail The New Dev!

[ibanez555]

Well said.

[pizzamind]

well said [2]

[timesplitters2012]

well said (3)

[ltftw]

Agreed. SYL and his solo stuff are just different sides of his personality.

[DysphoricExemption]

word. volume isn't power

[InvisibleSandwichTM]

@craveman58: I think the "SYL" stuff probably represented him better until Ocean Machine came out and he apparently became aware of the whole bipolar disorder thing. Suffice it to say that everything after that represents a happier, healther Devin Townsend, even the later SYL stuff.

[corovanmoro]

Such a GOOD song.

[xrwhumanx]

This song is so beautiful, it's simultaeniously simple and complex. The feeling it gives me is of missing my boyfriend but being at peace with everything at the same time.

Just amazing emotion in the music.

[AnalDan]

Incredible song, damn...

[ArmyofBoglins]

3:08 to 3:15 I feel like I'm cuddling with Devin. ANYONE ELSE?AWYEAH IT JUST FEEEELLS RIGHHTT.

[IbanezDemon]

Yeah im looking forward to Deconstruction also but i think Addicted will be interesting.

To back up why i think this is the best song imo is the song like (serious)structure..there are a couple more like Winter and Terminal but this album has as much appeal to me as infinity...not much,remember ants?wtf?lol

Terria,ocean machine mmm serious dev

Thats my opinion anyway. Please dont care too much :D

[bokma7]

great song, probably my favourite off ther new album. I find its gonna take time to get used to the new album :( I find alot of the songs sound the same..

But its Dev nontheless and I am happy to add Ki to my playlist.

Now I'm looking forward to 'Deconstruction'. Its apparently suppose to be Dev's heaviest album yet

[IbanezDemon]

Best song on the album..i wish the album was...more..dev??you know what i mean??

[LHCLEGION]

I know what you mean, though I don't agree.

[csaeon]

i know what you mean, especially gato was very undev imo, coast is great, and terminal too, but overall, like ki and most other songs didnt have a dev feel to them really, or just a really different devness. but i really cant wait for the rest, and i still respect this album though for what it is

[ViralMillennium]

As Devin had mentioned, when he got off drugs, he kinda forgot how to write music again. i think through his new-found sobriety, he found a different musical branch he needed to explore and that is what Ki is. its an exploration of that new part of him he has connected with

[TheWhaleShark]

He's also mentioned that, really, he was "done" with SYL 2 albums before he broke them up. His musical direction had started changing, but he had a contract to fulfill, so he turned to drugs (moreso) to keep the young man anger that had fueled SYL.

[Eichro]

If Ki is the Devin Townsend that doesn't know to write music... Damnit, he is even more awesome than I thought

[KoRnchi]

amazing song

[lexagon]

This is one of Devys best, right up there with Deadhead and Earth Day.

[croutonofdeath]

This is such a beautiful song. Only Devin can achieve such a level.

[berserkurinn]

Devin never ceases to amaze me with novelties. I've never grasped meditation. Devy is my mediation!
