| Devin Townsend Needs To...
Just some things I'd like to see from Devin. He's an amazing musician, seriously. | 7 | | Devin Townsend Ziltoid the Omniscient
realize that metal and humor don't really mix. Oh wait he did:
"I'm very rapidly realizing that humor and metal... it doesn't really work." - Devin Townsend.
Seriously though, Devin's a hilarious guy. I personally think he should keep the shit-ton of jokes he included on Ziltoid off of future albums. | 6 | | The Devin Townsend Band Synchestra
make Epicloud as awesome and diverse as Synchestra. One of the reasons I liked Synchestra so much was partly because of the fact that it featured a number instruments other than electric guitars, and not every song (or at least not every bit of each song) was played in the same key. | 5 | | The Devin Townsend Band Accelerated Evolution
start writing lyrics like the ones on Accelerated Evolution and Ocean Machine: Biomech again. It's nice that Devin has a quirky side, but sometimes being a little too quirky is too much. | 4 | | Devin Townsend Terria
include solos like the ones on Terria in his future releases. They just fit into the background and create an amazing atmosphere, even if they sometimes sound quite similar to one another. | 3 | | Devin Townsend Physicist
remaster Physicist. An amazing piece of music overwhelmed with poor production quality. If this were to be remastered (and maybe he threw in a few solos or something, I don't know) it'd sound better than ever. | 2 | | Devin Townsend Infinity
start playing "Sit in the Mountain" live. That has to be one of his most beautiful songs. | 1 | | Devin Townsend Ocean Machine: Biomech
perform Ocean Machine: Biomech in full!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |

03.07.12 | And yes, I did not include DTP. Partly because I ran out of things to say. Ordered by release in reverse. | KILL
03.07.12 | pretty much agree with all, i do think metal and humour go really well its just most metal heads are boring cunts who havent heard sadus and need to lighten up and thrash to the groove
and yea ocean machine in full would be amazingly perfect | tarkus
03.07.12 | m/ | YankeeDudel
03.07.12 | I love this man. Bring back the skullet. That is all. | KILL
03.07.12 | bring back syl first | thumbcrusher
03.07.12 | love the guy and i only started listening to his stuff three weeks ago | iambandersnatch
03.07.12 | lol @ "skullet"
I think Epicloud (in concept) sounds like it will hit the mark for a lot of people. The heaviness of Decon without all the weird jokes that turned some people off, with a little more diversity of sound a la Synchestra as you mentioned. I think Casualties of Cool (not a huge fan of the name, but w/e) could be interesting, sounds almost like trip-hop or something. | macadoolahicky
03.07.12 | Idk, SYL's last album was my least favorite album of theirs. If they kept making music like that, I honestly wouldn't miss them that much. Alien was an insane masterpiece, and City was also amazing. | iambandersnatch
03.07.12 | He's making 3 solo albums atm (and he's holding some crazy-ass psychedelic circus/musical thing in october that they've been preparing for about a year, dude is nuts), don't think there's any chance he'll have time for SYL. | KILL
03.07.12 | yea he wont be doing syl anyway, cant wait for the albums i love all his shit even ziltoid i dug | macadoolahicky
03.08.12 | I didn't care too much for ziltoid... Hyperdrive was a great song tho | MO
03.08.12 | "and yea ocean machine in full would be amazingly perfect"
this so hard | iambandersnatch
03.08.12 | Idk why people hate on Ziltoid. Even if you don't like the sillyness of the story, the musical side of it is still entertaining enough to 3.5-4 it. I mean Solar Winds is godly. | demigod!
03.31.12 | accelerated evolution isn't funny.... but it fucking slays | macadoolahicky
04.01.12 | When did I say Accelerated Evolution was funny? | Disorderly
03.24.19 | Well, ya got your #1 | Veldin
03.24.19 | Yeah, there's an amazing Ocean Machine live album from last year. Beyond stoked for Empath |
