It's not often one can say that over a decade later, this artist not only looks way younger, healthier, happier and has far surpassed his own vocal talent, technical guitar playing , live performances & composition/song writing in general. I will never not love this man's talent and personality.
I really miss his old vocal style, i love that compression and grit that he used in some parts ... like the “ you are” one, it adds some much more emotion to the performance .
@@xobrasxx I do to in a way. I love the raw emotion of his earlier stuff. He's way more controlled now. You can see in this his face is turning red because he's really pushing a scream instead of letting the vocal distortion do all the work. But he just looks so miserable lol.
@@neocenobyte Ohhhh!! That’s a dam fine shout! He’s one of the few vocalists who actually consistently improves year after year - even at his ripe age! It’s remarkable. I’m quite into Dan T from TesseracT at the moment, he’s one to watch out for as he’s improving at scary levels at the moment.
One of the best Devin songs ever. Fuck, one of the best song ever in all of rock/ metal. You can just hear Devin giving it his all, everything he has. The level of emotion, intensity and atmosphere is just insane.
I agree! When I listened to this song and vid for the first time a couple years back and it was ended I really sat like... It was special, such intensity indeed incredible
That`s right. I love what Francesco Paoli is doing on the drums in Fleshgod Apocalypse, but it never reaches this, this, this.......... i really can`t come up with the right word to describe the drumparts in this song. It`s hard to describe really,.............
***** When I heard Thru Our Scars the first time I thought holy shit this is awesome. Now I even get bored sometimes by the shit they do. I guess I like my music with a bit more emotion, dynamics and content if you know what i mean. The things Tuomas Saukkonen does for example great and brilliant stuff. Gojira, Omnium Gatherum, Anathema, Tool.. :)
***** I'm not into drums never really was. Untill I heard Dirk drum. From there on i noticed what a good drummer does for a band and what a fucking god drummer does to a band. His work on Juular was insane.
Holly hell, 16 years later it feels like I’m listening to a Deftones song in which Chino actually sings and screams to perfection. The track is eerie. One of the best of the Best/ most intense Prog Metal songs ever written. Devin is a Master Craftsman.
i cannot figure for the life of me how anybody has unliked this video. It's sonic. It's loud. It's beautiful. There's anger and there's sadness. He does his death scream. He sings with his pure clean voice. He sings everywheree in between. He's got the skullet. It's got a bit of the 70's heavy feel to it. It's good. That's all I can say about this song.
RenaudCalisse Woah dude, hold up... John Fruciante, and Aphex Twin stand out in fields of their own concerning musical diversity, and not just them. Those two stand out off the top of my head. Devin Townsend is definitely gifted and I love his music, but to say he's the most varied and versatile musician of all time? Bit of a stretch dude...
Andrew Iredale nice, aphex twin! if you want to hear someone that goes above and beyond his work, type in: venetian snares - ego dsp. both are awesome, but i think the snares man has taken aphex's spot on the throne.
I just got into him a few months back. First time I heard this song was the live video at the Royal Albert hall. I was in awe. Seeing this is awesome. He has deffinently gotten better vocally. When was this video like 2003??
Saw Devin performing this track last night at Royal Albert Hall in London. Damn…. I’m new to his work and wasn’t aware that this track is this old. This dude is a true creative force. This track is like wine, the older the better and more refined. Great stuff 👍🏻
Man... If I could ever write a piece of music that made me feel anything as deeply as what I feel from this song, I'd feel like I'd accomplished all I really need to in life.
I fight with other Devy fans on this all the time but this is hands down the best live version of this song. It doesn't need extra production or orchestras, its best in all its gnarled fury like this. I also just really love the song played on a modded strat, its not as sleek as his current gear but I just love the stank of it
I can hear what you saying bro but don’t argue with Dev fans bro that’s not cool. Smoke one up and chill. I’ve got 5 versions of this song. I agree I like this one the best
hey to be fair I was kind of just joking around when I said "fighting", its always more of a friendly argument over Discord or something@@misterbaker9728
If I was in a band and my vocalist nailed the note like Devin does at 8:20, I know for a fact I would not be able to keep a straight face. This man rules everything.
You are a sun Goddess Will you save me? Hooray for you. Hooray. Now the rain it comes, the rain it blurs the grey line …the grey line…the Greyhound home You are so vicious (Hurt me, I can take it) Cause it’s all in the heat of the moment, It’s all in the pain Sonar, sonar again… It’s on again, (got no wings…gossamer wings…)(I'm the the one who's so far away) …on again… You are a sun Goddess!!! Will you save me? …babe…babe…babe… Cause it’s all in the heat of the moment It’s all in the pain!!! So give in to the heat of the moment Give in to the pain!!!
One of the greatest songs from one of our greatest metal/prog/rock geniuses ever. And that voice! Who can scream in perfect glissando like that? Ronnie James Dio would be proud.
At that moment he had no idea what he would lay down at Royal Albert Hall. And that this song would become one of the greatest songs in the minds of many who witnessed it.
This was the first song I had ever heard by him. The second was the SYL song Almost Again. The third was Planet Smasher. I think I was hooked from then on. Such diversity in sound. Such power during the heavy moments, such beauty during the quiet parts. I can't blame others like myself who may find it hard to listen to other artists after getting DEVified. Here's to another 20 years of awesome music, friends!
This is the definition of music. Contains such emotions and the way Dev express ém = mindblowing. I've never seen a musician so powerful as in 8:02-8:34
When he says "HURT ME I CAN TAKE IT" I basically just calm down and get into a fairly good mood even if I was depressed or pissed off, it's just, epic moment in life.
Devin took decisions that made him healthier and happier over all. The past gave him lessons, he overcame everything and now he is rocking the world! A great guy and a rare talent!
This song is like an acid trip. Almost too much depth and feeling behind it. It's like Jimi Hendrix gave birth to Neurosis through his pineal gland in the Garden of Eden.
It almost makes me want to put down guitar because he just did everything I want to do with music in one song. However its inspiring that after being around for so long people are still making guitar rock and metal original.
Thrashmetal6666 Couldn't agree more my man. Dev is just the epitome of musical greatness and all things that are brutal yet beautiful. It really is hard to find other music that compares. Especially if you're into heavier music like I am. I just can't say enough good thing about the SYL days and how much they inspired me as a musician. Honorable mention to Gene fuckin Hoglan!
Love the analysis about it having an almost too overwhelming amount of emotional depth... I've always felt this about this song too. I guess it really reflects the bipolar state of his mind back then. Basically your life has the intensity and emotionality of an acid trip for any length of time during manic episodes. Imagine what went around in his mind during the writing of this song. I can honestly only grab the very suraface I think. God I idolize this guy lol.
As much as i love the live performance, i simply cant stop coming back to this version. You really can hear Devin screaming his heart out in this one, so fucking glorious.
i may have watched this video 50 times for the music but i just sat and actually watched it. i like how they focus on all the band members almost as much as devy. plus the drummer looks like a buff version of my buddy mike.
You won't find a better masterpiece anymore this is a song that everyone should hear and start wondering what we have done to music and the world sick times want peace....
One of the coolest prog-metal- heavy-spacey songs ever written. Look at the commentary. Like a mystical experience for many. Devin is such a master of emotion, humor, and metal power. Rock on!
Dear Devin, I've been listening since I was 16 years old and coincidentally, your CITY album struck with me very well at that time hahaha... and at this time I really have to say that this song, Deadhead, is one of my favourite songs in existence. Moves me every time in different ways. You really have figured out how to resonate on people's emotion strings ;) With Love, F.
spent 20 years listening to all kinds a music..never came across such a talented,creative and honestly lovely creature..until couple of days..thank the fkn whatever led me to Dev and his work :) I will folow
@@metalheadpolack I mean I would think most people can, the note itself isn't super high, I believe it's a G#5. It's replicating the added distortion with the loud volume that's incredibly hard.
Seeing him this summer is gonna be absolutely brilliant. Period.

I was sleeping when I first heard this song. It woke me up and filled me with great emotion. Actually, I listened to a bunch of DTP songs while asleep, so now I'm obsessed with Devin's music.
This is awesome, but it just goes to show that Devin Townsend is only getting better with age. He was fucking amazing then and is even more fucking amazing now.
Gotta love how Devin unloads those screams with emotion. I think that because of his bipolar disorder he's able to convey more feeling to his singing. It also explains why his albums are different themed each time.
+Jamie Severson I asked this same question somewhere in the comments years ago and never got an answer. Had a friend that had a blade pickup like the one Devin has here in the neck that was not hum-cancelling but sounded awesome. It looks a lot like a SD hot stack.
This dude can play on my heart strings like no one else. Pure intensity, passion, talent, mindset...everything. It’s so god damn impossible not to like this dude. He’s the true definition of “underrated”. His dynamics are truly unmatched, even to this day. A fucking shame if you ask me
Best compliment I can pay is it reminds me of Pink Floyd at their greatest, incredible musicianship from Devy and the rest of the boys. Devy continues to make great music no matter what genre it fits into.
I hade the honour of seeing this song live at Metaltown this year! After that this song gives me more goosebumps then ever before! Also after seeing him live I got more hooked on his music then ever before!

It's strange how Devin passed so many people during the nu-metal era. This has a very Deftones vibe alright.

I just discovered DT and his band today. Saw some tremendous live performances, and I thought this song was fucking fucking stunning. I cried.
Listen to Strapping Young Lad too, Devin Townsend is the most varied and versatile muscian and singer of all time...

I already listen to venetian snares bro, but thank you. My-So-Called-Life was my favourite song for a while. :)
He looks older here than he does now. Anyway, amazing performance. I am fucking addicted to this song.
it's because of the do: long hair and bald on top makes you look like an angry troll.
That is what makes this song great. Everyone is addicted to it.
this is awesome... and more awesome than that is the fact that 10 years later he's playing and singing this so much more awesome !!
I Agree!!
My favourite version of this song is at the royal albert hall!
I don’t know how his voice has held up so good when he’s nearly 50 too
Awesome. This is the word. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This is my preferred version
