Devin Townsend - Deadhead (Live Acoustic)

Devin Townsend Unplugged UK Tour. Corporation, Sheffield. 2011

[@roundhousekicker88]

I honestly think he's the best guitarist AND singer in modern metal. And a Hell of a guy.

[@gwlm2679]

I don’t know about guitarist I would have to give that to Synyster Gate. But 100% the best singer

[@just_ice_rider]

@@gwlm2679 yes

[@realtoken]

​@@gwlm2679synyster gates?!?!!? 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣😂😂🤣

[@brunofernando4634]

@@realtoken Yes man, believe, Synister is only second in technique currently to Kiko Loureiro who is certainly the top one at the moment. Synister plays harder things than you might think. If you're not a guitarist, consider that the more difficult techniques like arpeggios and some of the more difficult lics, Synister uses with mastery. But undeniably, talking about playing more technically, the top one is Kiko loureiro, followed by Synister

[@TacticalTeabagging]

I think that scream just made me piss myself while I drowned in feels

[@JULIOBLITZ]

TacticalTeabagging Glad too know I'm not the only one :) \m/

[@captweirdbeard]

This needs to be recorded in a studio and released someday.

[@federz666]

damn straight! seen him a few weeks ago, met him after the gig and he was nearly in tears with the appreciation of everyone being there.. such a humble dude

[@JimmyOOOOO]

For the uninitiated, this is the most metal man on the planet.

[@EchoesOfAncients]

Greatest love song of our generation.

[@emptyhighways]

Devin, what you do with your voice, it's just physically impossible to us mere mortals.

[@randyhalfway]

That instrumental bridge section is gorgeous.

[@JeremyPringsheim]

its awesome that the music is so intense that screaming doesnt sound at all over the place ... over an acoustic guitar ... thats something.

[@Opranius]

I'm totally in love with this ultra-reverb/delay effect. You can get a pretty similar effect on guitar rig - f.e. with the "Warm Universe" or "Clean Cave" preset :3

[@TheDamnBeast]

Oh shit, thanks for that tip.

[@sporebyosoch]

indeeeeeeeeeeeeed

[@idontcare_wtf]

I thought the same thing! Sounds so like clean cave preset

[@_jm0n3y8oo_]

Devin is everything I love from a performer and a songwriter. One of my absolute favorite songs, and the performance at Royal Albert Hall still makes me cry. Too much emotion to contain.

[@PlanarCollapse2]

This man's head must be placed in a Futurama jar when the time comes!

[@user-fj3mh2ny4y]

Совсем не понимаю о чем, но это охренительно!!!!

[@MarkoosChimpuclese]

omg.... you have NO idea, the amount of jealousy I have for your presence at the time of this song being performed.... The only thing that could ever surpass it, would be if he played all of Ocean Machine while on a U.K. tour!

[@blazev88]

Markoos Chimpuclese XD

[@WeWantYouToStay]

He did!

[@JordanWallac3]

Hahahaha

[@gintry2]

and I was there :D

[@ElRodeo1970]

Pure emotion ❤

[@KittyRocca]

Devin ------------- the World

[@captainpiefox9133]

KittyRocca he's so down to earth that he's out of this world

[@anjabikowski6667]

5:42 - 5:48 its so amazing. this song is a masterpiece for all time

[@matcarpes]

Goosebumps with every single performance of this song, it's just unbelievable

[@RodaidhMackay]

His pockets look like the heads from Easter Island. #knowlegeeispower #howtospellknowledge?

[@Rondozza]

this is a subliminal message from devin. it is actually one of the heads and was on earth thousands of years ago. he is an alien :)))

[@thalamusDecimation]

they're called moyais

[@RaEeSir]

Man those screams are even more chilling without a full band...

[@DerVagabundli]

Looking so much like a dad but still being so utterly badass is an outstanding achievement!

[@ncnguyen]

Even subdued as an acoustic version, this song still holds so much emotion. This is why I love Devin!

[@johncampbell2893]

It is difficult to believe that such an angelic voice could be contained in merely mortal flesh, Thank you Mr Townsend you are truly amazing!

[@opethvarium418]

truth. I met him after a show once and it's like talking to one of your friends...most surreal moment in my life. love this guy!

[@chessbrainiac]

This is easily one of my favorite Devin Townsend songs, and this version is beautiful. The man is a total genius.

[@NikokiN8]

One of my favorite songs, I wish I had tabs to this acoustic version. Chills.

[@joearrue6819]

Even better!

[@TheTruth3977]

Still one of my favourite songs. Devin's voice is just incredible.

[@haiebaie]

2:33 That voice... just simply amazing

[@Synwolf1985]

Despite what the song is really about, this version feels so warm for some reason.

[@versusterminus19]

Chills all up in mah spine :)

[@antkowiak666]

Really is a beautiful song from top to bottom!

[@Lachton]

Devin is a god of music, and one of the nicest people you'll ever meet!

[@gordanlazinica]

I feel ashamed not to listen this video 'till its end, for my respect for Devin and his devotion.

[@carlcruysberghs2298]

[@vonjager]

[@DeadLetterOpener]

Thank you so much for this. I love Devin's intensity...what an amazing gig to have witnessed. Devin Townsend shall rock my world forever!

[@BIZARRAZO]

Yo hace años busqué en Internet las personas con el rango vocal mas amplio y en una lista, apareció Devin townsend, fui a buscarlo porque no lo conocía y la primera canción que oí fue Kingdom y no manches quedé estupefacto y con piel de gallina.

[@fredriklundgren1943]

I have goosebumps all over. This is so beautiful! Never heard it acoustic before. I love it!

[@TheEggBeast]

gah! My brain just creamed itself! I love this dude!

[@granpsycho]

[@devildante6557]

[@hugoalmeida4323]

[@joshbrock3094]

[@michaelbrugman6140]

hi there ....was 6 weeks in koma cause of this - incredible song and much better (if possible) best of performance !!!! love devine since sex and reli - but his solo one s are sooooooo special gooood and he as a person ....no words left man -best respect

[@TheMeaning0fLife]

His guitar is an acoustic electric guitar. It can play acoustic songs, but you can also plug it into an amp, which is what he's doing in the video. You can hear the effects of the amp with the 'echo', like you said, and by how loud the guitar is. The title of the video says that it's 'unplugged', but his guitar's is being run through an amp, so it isn't unplugged.

[@dissonantmind]

To you that have upload this video, whoever you are: I really love you.

[@krongh]

Why won't it let me Like this 1000000000000000 times????

[@saggysloth]

[@lcor30]

[@SyntheticFuture]

[@TakavaNirhii]

5:41... Freaking nailed it!

[@CaptainBenetration]

😭

[@devmaker11]

Is this also played in Open C Tuning ?

[@Nidstang68]

why was this spam? I got several chills at that part.

[@karthany]

I'm not understanding what you're saying, but the cord is so he can get his echo and to not have it so quiet.

[@robonez]

Devin Townsend is brilliant!!!!!!! It's not unplugged though! :D

[@thomasleyding2544]

.....!

[@andrewiredale]

I found this acoustic version to be better than the original.

[@adjhd1]

Anyone have decent Tabs for this acoustic version??

[@rolandstagliano]

New Deadhead cover (INCLUDING VOCAL COVER) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqiyiJaFjqederM

[@Iluvtogekiss]

better than the original?

[@MechanizedFantasy]

Technically it is. the only thing wired is the mic in the guitar. :)

[@petersumner5712]

666 likes, I will not like anymore but goddam it Devin. This is just ridiculous.

[@JOSEMUNOZ-cc3df]

[@TheMeaning0fLife]

"Devin Townsend - Deadhead Unplugged" Maybe 'acoustic' would work better in that case, since there's clearly a cord coming out of the back of the guitar.

[@captainpiefox9133]

TheMeaning0fLife technically 'unplugged' refers to the fact that it is acoustic, when it is normally electric, so it's very qualified to be 'unplugged' as in contrast to the original song

[@karthany]

oh, I see what your point is. Yes acoustic would work better. I've never really been nit-picky about things like that.

[@breannalollypop7480]

dragon ball super

[@BanditsLair]

*Facepalm*

[@DAMASTIDAN]

Love this, but it's not unplugged ..

[@markgalbraith4655]
