Devin is without a doubt one of the greatest artists I know of, and the material he's done with the DTB is just sheer awesomeness.

Title: Re: Strapping Young Lad Post by: Skeletor on August 11, 2006, 12:39:57 AM don't forget singing with Steve Vai :o Other than 'In My Dreams With You', that album hasn't really become a hit in my books. But good job though, he was pretty young when he sang in 'Sex & Religion'. Title: Re: Strapping Young Lad Post by: R4tfink on August 11, 2006, 02:44:10 PM The guys a lunatic. By self admission as well as far as im aware. Whats The Devin Townsend Band like, i dig SYL a little bit. Is it better or worse? Worth checking out? Riff Heavy?

The DTB is a lot better than SYL in my opinion, though it's hard to compare because they're so different. DTB is somewhat heavy, and yeah there's some nice riffage at times, but it's a lot more mellow and melodic compared to SYL. Devin likes to create this huge wall of sound, with a million little things happening at the same time. Definitely worth checking out, and I recommend starting with Terria, as most find it his most complete album. Songs like Earth Day, Deep Peace and Stagnant are just perfection :) |
