4.5 superb | Whispered4tw | May 26th 11 | While Deconstruction is a record you listen to get a great kick out off, Ghost is something you can really dive into and get lost in its atmospheres, the scenery that it envisions and warmth it radiates. It's all just really sincere and natural. A beautiful way of closure to this successful project.

3.5 great | charlie15 | June 26th 11 | I appreciate the beauty of this album more than I actually enjoy it. It strangely reminds me of avatar every
time I listen to it. Would have been the perfect sound track to accompany the movie. As far fetched as that
sounds.

4.5 superb | Hawks | April 27th 24 | Can't believe I put this off for so long man. What a beautiful piece of art this is. Folky/classical new age prog rock and a dash of ambient with the most serene atmosphere imaginable. Devy can appeal to the non metal crowd too!
Bump |
3.8 excellent | Erwann S. STAFF | July 18th 19 | Ante-Casualties of Cool. My fav DTP release, and it makes me realize I prefer his softer side from all his 2010s' releases.
Bump |
4.0 excellent | rifkadm | May 23rd 17 | This is a ethereal, ambient album, but it took some growing on me for whatever reason. There were many times that I would start it and not finish it, but it's worth it in the end. Given enough listens, a picture of a soundscape starts to form, and that to me is a mark of a good album.
Bump |
4.0 excellent | EasterInTheBatcave | June 10th 16 | Ghost is another spectacularly realized vision from Devin. It's his softest album, and also one of his most beautiful. The production is absolutely incredible. Really, the album's only flaw is that it's a little too long. However, the wealth of amazing material here more than makes up for such an oversight. Indeed, the first half of the record in particular is incredibly strong, and with stunning tracks like "Dark Matters" and "Seams" in the second, that half is hardly poor either. Ghost is a truly wonderful record and yet another exceptional addition to Devin's discography.
Bump |
4.5 superb | Jared Floryan | March 15th 16 | Canadian singer-songwriter, producer, and multitasker Devin Townsend is like that unhinged relative of yours who spends his waking hours demonstrating his mad artist qualities and running on the Rule of Funny. To the common man, he's basically a modern version of Frank Zappa, but to everybody else... Devin is this spiritual fountain of awesome music. He's also a very prolific figure, for he works an extensive solo career and functioned as the frontman for extreme metal outfit Strapping Young Lad. I could say more about him, but then I'd be rambling even further until I'm a black hole. Anyhoo, under the moniker Devin Townsend Project, Townsend's fourteenth studio album Ghost is a record that definitely justifies more listens than what ought to be necessary. It's mellow, it's as pretty as a picture, and yet that's not quite all to the album's contents. With seamless flow and great songwriting chops among other crap, this is an offering that proves daunting at first due to its length, but later grows on whomever approaches Ghost. Ingenious.

4.0 excellent | mkamrass | July 23rd 14 | One of the most relaxing albums I have heard in my entire life. I almost fell asleep but in a good way.
Bump |
4.0 excellent | TRMshadow | June 17th 13 | While Ghost is beautiful and subtle, most HevyDevy fans would agree with me in saying that those aren't his strong points. Whether it be the face-melting heavyness of SYL, the randomness of Deconstruction or Ziltoid, or the majestic Prog of his solo work (Terria, Synchestra, OM: Biomech), Devin plays to his overwhelming strengths when he's working with a lot of things at once (some might say too much). Devin's strength comes from working on 10 things at once and having them all lead to a momentous conclusion. To me this album feels like Devin was forcing limits on himself and it inevitably weakened of how far he could take his final product. 3.1/5
Bump |
4.5 superb | Monstar1790 | March 8th 13 | This album gets better and better year after year. If you're a frustrated Hevy Devy fan who just can't enjoy it, come back in half a decade.

0.0 | conesmoke | March 7th 12 | In this album, Devin Townsend manages to keep the epicness and quality of his trademark style whilst channeling it through a much much softer medium. So beautiful
Bump |
0.0 | Julianna Reed EMERITUS | March 4th 12 | Grab your favorite martini, high-tail it out of your beach house late at night and take some time to lie amongst the crashing waves of the ocean. Let the soothing hisses of the colliding water take you away, and perhaps even have an album like this going as you let yourself untether from the world around you, as you unfurl from the complexities of your life. Devin Townsend takes a giant step into ambient territory from the avant-garde metal world, and it's safe to say that this is where he belongs.
Bump |
5.0 classic | BaseballJames | January 23rd 12 | I will always love this record. (If you wouldn't mind, I think I'll fall in line.) I will always love Devin's music. (If you wouldn't mind, I think I'll fall in too.)
Bump |
3.5 great | Metamorphosis | December 26th 11 | I'm not as enamored with this is everyone else (even if it is beautiful and atmospheric and such), but this is nonetheless a great piece of work.
Bump |
4.5 superb | CakeWithCream | December 24th 11 | Yeah so this is pretty much one of prettiest, chill records of all time
Bump |
5.0 classic | Zilla2112 | November 26th 11 | The final album in the Devin Townsend Project, 'Ghost' is probably the best album Devin has made in his entire career. Being a radical departure from his metal roots, the soft, relaxing music of 'Ghost' has raised my spirits on several occasions and will probably never get old. The first half of the album is full of catchy, incredible songs, including the beautiful "Feather", but the second half is also enjoyable to listen to as well. There's just so much to say about this album that you should just listen to it yourself. Check out: The whole thing.
Bump |
4.0 excellent | Mchailas | September 29th 11 | Quality seems to wane a bit in the last few songs, but otherwise a fantastic release.
Bump |
3.5 great | Kraze422 | July 3rd 11 | I like both this and Deconstruction, but both are way overlong and I almost never listen all the way through which bums me out... They just kinda over stay their welcome for me. But there's still a lot to like and Feather was great.

Bump |
1.0 awful | Schmoove | June 19th 11 | WTF! I like ambient music but this just gives me the creeps! Lionel Messi is a great football player and probably very bad at snooker! So Devin should stick to what he is good at, being a metalhead!
Bump |
4.0 excellent | Quadrochosis | June 16th 11 | It's so good, after more than 20 listens I can honestly say it's the album of the year by quite a bit.
Bump |
4.0 excellent | DarkSideOfLucca | June 15th 11 | I've heard every Devin Townsend release (including Strapping Young Lad) and this is definitely my favorite. I can feel my soul being enhanced whenever I listen to this mammoth of an album.

0.0 | Jerrad | May 28th 11 | The album is a bit long but this thing is beautiful from start to finish. This album and Deconstruction together, make the this, "The Year Of The Hevy Devy"
Bump |
0.0 | trilogique | May 28th 11 | It was alright. Big Devin fan, but don't think Devin has ever been a master of ambient music
like he is metal. Heard better music similar to this. It's also extremely one note which
makes the 70 minute journey all the more difficult to sit through.
