Roddy Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 'City' is one of the most extreme albums ever made. If you're after extemities, grab that album! As far as SYL being over, you just never know with Devin. He said words to that effect after City, but then September 11 happened and he got all his anger back. The man suffers from Bi-Polar and other psychological disorders, so sometimes he says things during a down period that turn out not to be the case. The last round of interviews he did he was exhausted from recording/touring and emotional after the birth of his kid, so he was pretty negative about it at that time. Maybe he'll come back from this break he's currently on and be totally refreshed, ready to kick arse with SYL and his DTB stuff again. In fact I'm counting on that! BTW, you'll LOVE AE and OM. Just give them some time to grow on you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaportrail Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Yup, he uses the Drumkit From Hell on it too! He described it as a mix of SYL and DTB. Can't f***ing wait, what a great year this is going to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabs89 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 I'd say that his best work is with Ayreon on the Human equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roddy Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Awesome and funny at the same time! (if there were 2 Omnisciences, I would be both of them!) I just hope people don't hear this as the 1st Devin stuff they hear.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I discovered Addicted & Epicloud last night. Been hooked all day 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Both are fantastic! Addicted is my favorite of his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarizeMe Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) I knew Devin for a while but it wasn't until earlier this year I made an effort to listen to any of his work. The first time I listened to him was while watching his performance at Tuska Open Air Metal Fest in 2010. It wasn't the full set, but the first song in the video was Supercrush! and by the end of the song I knew that I was already a fan and bought Epicloud the very next day. Addicted, Ghost and Epicloud are my three favorite Devin Townsend Project albums although the other two albums in the project Deconstruction and Ki are fantastic as well.
