So after Devin Townsend ended Strapping Young Lad he took a few years off from recording. In May he released Ki which is the first album from his four album project, The Devin Townsend Project. On November 17 he's releasing the second album, Addicted. It leaked a week ago and it sounds fucking amazing. Really, it's just fucking epic. No album has ever given me chills down my spine on every song like this one has. That's the teaser up there. This is the playlist. I already preordered an autographed copy.
In Spring he's releasing Deconstruction which he says will be the most heavy music he's ever written. He says it will have 4 drummers, a small orchestra, a choir, and additional death metal vocalists (he's putting together a new band for each album).
Soon after Deconstruction he's releasing Ghost which will be the ambient "dessert" album. 4 albums in 2 years and he's already said he's writing another album after all this and he's commissioning a graphic novel to go along with it.
How much is that album gonna cost? He looks totally different with no hair or drugs, its weird. The music sounds ok from all the songs meshed together, maybe deconstruction will be really good though.
ReplyDeleteMy autographed copy cost $15, but I think amazon is selling it for $10
