So this one day Devy, a young, talented musician, who struggled for years with promoting his art, found a strange door that led directly to the mind of John Malkovich...
You know what's the most amazing thing about this song? It's built unlike anything other. Its built more like a symphony, a piece of classical music. Very long, always evolving, constantly changing, completely unorthodox about its form. I have NEVER heard something like this.
For DTB probably the most essential album is Terria which will blow you away. It may not at first but it's an album that will reveal it's treasures one at a time. Pure masterpiece. Although it's not a very widespread idea, I recommend Accelerated Evolution (I've uploaded two songs from it, Deadhead, Storm). I think those two albums will make you want to buy all the others without recommendations ;)
Devy is original.That is so damn rare nowdays even in the path of music.He just raises from all that shit that has covered art.A real enigmatic artist.Insanity gains a new meaning:aculty
Utterly flawless from start to finish,just the way this song is:D i was deemed speechless from the very first time i listened to this song, and still am left speechless every time i listen to it now. But what makes devin townsend one of the greatest(or in my opinion anyway) musicians of all time, is his constant intelligence overlayed within his music,and it makes for an amazing experience. Just utterly amazing:D
I can't believe I finally get to see Devin next year when he comes back to Australia. Even though there will be no SYL songs, it will be fucking epic and I am so excited!
A god. What else can you say about Devin? One of the most talented people when it comes to music creation, supreme vocals?! A God! Devin thank you man. Just that.
this genius needs to tour again. I wanna see him live at least ONCE in my life time. I wanna feel what its like to be in the presence of the sun god! lol. Please Devin , TOUR AGAIN! come to Portland, OR!
Devin Townsend rules!!! His new album Addicted is great too. I saw him live only once years ago. I hope he comes to Belgium soon. He's one of the most underrated artists.
Devin Townsend rules, one of my favourite musical artists. Im so glad that I can see him in Tuska festival this summer, and ofcourse...Ziltoid world exclusive show at the same time!!!
plus the fact that devin is in fact a singer, and one of the best I've heard, which is more than I could ever say about whatsisface in DT (dream theater) oh, that's right, james labrie right?
Neither can I. It seems like it was yesterday that I wanted to watch Earth Day live but there was nothing on TH-cam and this way I found out about this bonus material and bought it. Kudos to Devin for letting it stay up instead of taking it down.
He posts frequently on his own forum actually and is cool about answering questions when he can. He's pretty busy though, with Addicted officially hitting in a couple of days, plus still working on the third and fourth albums of the DTP, Deconstruction and Ghost.
The reason was they had a 5 album contract and once they fulfilled that they decided to go on an indefinate hiatus. In the new album '1994-2006 chaos years' the booklet insert gives the proper reason, which is basically that, but devin talks about the band getting bigger, and more money being given to them, which when they started out were the things they hated, check it out, its a good read.
yeah he has Bipolar disorder. He's been able to control it, and has given up his use of Alcahol and drugs recently, living a clean lifestyle. He's a genius, and to know that he can continue writing pure genius while completely sober makes him one of my biggest inspirations as a musician.
@shipplewitz112 I think it's kind of funny that pickles, the drummer complete with Canadian accent, is so clearly modeled after Devin. And the drummer who recorded the Dethklok album is Gene Hoglan, the man who played the early Devin stuff and in SYL with Devin, hehe. Brendon Small is obviously a Devin fan too.
I didn't even watch the video this time, i'm listening to it, and i just had to find a video to comment about how amazing it is. Goddamn this song is perfect
Well he is touring when he gets these next 3 albums out! Of course he'll likely be playing those albums...I wanna see him live and I wanna see this live! It's one of those songs that will always be special to me...only problem is I'm singing it for days after I've just heard it the once.
I forgot to mention that I wasn't a big fan of SYL (although I enjoyed them) until I saw their live DVD. The pure energy from that hooked me up completely, so you might want to check that out first ;)
So this one day Devy, a young, talented musician, who struggled for years with promoting his art, found a strange door that led directly to the mind of John Malkovich...
Here on Earth day 2024!
I still love Devin Townsend. I love his work in SYL and even his recent so called "yoga music". It's all great. He's a phenomenal musician.
More Devin music and a world Will be a better place 🙂.
Ki is his best work IMO
Happy earth day!
Every year I come here on the same day
I'm so glad this is the first result for searching for "Earth Day."
You know what's the most amazing thing about this song? It's built unlike anything other. Its built more like a symphony, a piece of classical music. Very long, always evolving, constantly changing, completely unorthodox about its form. I have NEVER heard something like this.
It's amazing seeing how far the Devy has come.

One of Devin Townsend's best indeed!
A true musician that performance with a level of excellence rarely seen.

This could very well be the best song Devin Townsend has ever created.
this whole dvd is so damn good, i just sit there watching it for aaages!
Ingeniously awesome...
plus the fact that devin is in fact a singer, and one of the best I've heard, which is more than I could ever say about whatsisface in DT (dream theater) oh, that's right, james labrie right?

divine ... genius Devin ...
one of my favorite Townsend songs
Just Awsome... I love Devin Townsend! :D
Its fucking earth day and I can't believe that it's 10 years since this song was uploaded 10 years ago!!!!
Neither can I. It seems like it was yesterday that I wanted to watch Earth Day live but there was nothing on TH-cam and this way I found out about this bonus material and bought it. Kudos to Devin for letting it stay up instead of taking it down.

fantastic melodys, metal at its best !
The song that made me an eternal fan :' )
un capolavoro. devin è semplicemente un genio
The reason was they had a 5 album contract and once they fulfilled that they decided to go on an indefinate hiatus. In the new album '1994-2006 chaos years' the booklet insert gives the proper reason, which is basically that, but devin talks about the band getting bigger, and more money being given to them, which when they started out were the things they hated, check it out, its a good read.
yeah he has Bipolar disorder. He's been able to control it, and has given up his use of Alcahol and drugs recently, living a clean lifestyle. He's a genius, and to know that he can continue writing pure genius while completely sober makes him one of my biggest inspirations as a musician.
@BassmanSwe yeah me too! its amazing how good music is just like sitting right in front of you sometimes.
masterpiece. Devin is the most underrated mucisian ever.
Fantastik.
@shipplewitz112 I think it's kind of funny that pickles, the drummer complete with Canadian accent, is so clearly modeled after Devin.

I didn't even watch the video this time, i'm listening to it, and i just had to find a video to comment about how amazing it is. Goddamn this song is perfect
I listen to this song every earth day
Well he is touring when he gets these next 3 albums out! Of course he'll likely be playing those albums...I wanna see him live and I wanna see this live! It's one of those songs that will always be special to me...only problem is I'm singing it for days after I've just heard it the once.
EARTH DAY!!! devin townsend is fuckin awesome man. such good musics
AMAZING
Really? I didn't know they still played this song live. That's awesome, man!
I forgot to mention that I wasn't a big fan of SYL (although I enjoyed them) until I saw their live DVD. The pure energy from that hooked me up completely, so you might want to check that out first ;)
It's just amazing !!!
I really hope the DTP hiatus is short lived,they're too amazing together. Best of luck to Ryan/Beav/Jed/Byron and Jon with iMonolith
