DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT - Deadhead (Live at Royal Albert Hall) THE WOLF HUNTERZ Reactions

[@Denashi]

"If you feel like it at any point, don'tcha know... pick a tempo!" I'll never tire of that little joke!

[@jindas4217]

Because of the audience's off time clapping. Which, can really throw off the timing of a song. LOL

[@jindas4217]

Sometimes...why he doesn't care, do what ya want to....we're going to create this wall of sound, and take you on a journey. 😊

[@andrewgibbon7934]

A lot of reactors don't pick up on it

[@davemc8021]

Haha same here, I smile every time

[@hansikursch484]

Crazy to think he's 50 and has been hitting those crazy notes for 32+ years!

[@GhostDrummer]

And he gets better with time…normally unheard of in rock/metal.

[@pablosole3700]

@@GhostDrummer not exatly, he does more fry scream with the years... most of the lines that supose to be clean he does them with fry, it looks like he is losing his clean range. Only in his mid register he use it. For example on the end of Why live he doesn´t hit the last pitch with his clean vocals

Every time you all do a Dev song, I plead with you to please do “Funeral / Bastard / The Death of Music” from this RAH concert. After 62 years of listening a lot of music, this trilogy ranks #1 on my list of all time best songs & performances. Yes, it is about 25 minutes for the whole thing, but they must be experienced all at once to get the full effect. So much is happening in these songs, so many changes and little things going on, that I am still getting something new from it every time. Nothing else even comes close. The Plovdiv performance is also epic, but the RAH one gets the nod for the energy, cinematography and the stage. I know you all like to take ideas from the sponsors who pay, and I would because I love you guys, but I cannot right now. I can bake you some cookies… Come on DevHeads, back me up on this. Let them know how exceptional this is and what it would mean to you to see them react to it. Thanks!

[@mikemustdash]

all 3 songs are so good but when he ends with the death of music it just hits so hard. it's hard to explain but if you are in the right or maybe wrong headspace the death of music will bring you to tears.

[@lananiella]

@@mikemustdash It still does. Dev's vocal performance on this song is (in my opinion) the greatest one ever. He is so emotional and gives such a moving authentic theatrical rock opera dramatic delivery. If this was in a movie, he would win an Oscar. Even when he is delivering the same lyric in the 2nd half of the song ("Don't die on me..."), he gives each line a different emotional interpretation. Astounding. You can tell he is feeling every moment of this. One of my fave parts is the closeup of the goosebumps and hairs standing up on his arms.

[@pablosole3700]

they only do patreon requests

[@rxhx]

Yes that "trilogy" is beyond beautiful. There's a channel I like who reacted to it "Kel n Rich", very emotional

[@Thystonius]

You are so right... I am also waiting for another reaction on Tallah... they only did Overconfidence and there's so much more sick songs

[@RolandDeschain1]

Devin Townsend is the single most brilliant musician on the planet.

[@Falleninator]

I dunno man.. I love Devin, but Arjen Anthony Lucassen is today's Chopin

[@RolandDeschain1]

@@Falleninator I discovered Arjen through Devin.

[@PatrickVanDijk_NL]

@@Falleninator Might I suggest that 'Metal Mozart' Tuomas Holopainen joins this holy trinity?

[@puppetmaster8551]

Jerry Cantrell for me but Devin is also a great answer, fantastic musician.

[@マシュードーラン]

@@puppetmaster8551Jerry Cantrell 😂 I needed that laugh

[@jeannettesimpson9778]

68 years old. Found Devi through other reactions. Definitely awesome! So much emotion.

[@justanotheranhedonicguy5132]

wow, I love the fact that you are so open minded when it comes to genre, nice to see another hevy devy fan!

[@mootkickee]

He won’t be fully appreciated until he’s gone I’m afraid. That’s the level of talent we’re dealing with here. Seen him so many times love including unplugged with nothing but an acoustic, and he really can do it all. He’s a musicians musician

[@Payne2view]

I know the screems are impressive but my favourite bit of that is his guitar tone. Love the sound of his guitar in this. Especially at the start. So chewy and there.

[@justanotheranhedonicguy5132]

God I love how expressive Travis is. Honestly this is my favorite Deadhead reaction, God that this was so enjoyable! I also appreciate the fact that you react, really listen and enjoy a lot of different music. Not many people are that open minded when it comes to music. Also your music's great too! Definitely want to see you reacting to some more artists, you guys are great!

[@ceevee1646]

every time he screams will you save me it makes me tear up

[@zeigbert1743]

I love the wall-of-sound.

[@Them_G]

Nice to see the old studio again. Brings back many memories from the start of the channel.

[@GhostDrummer]

Many other’s have said it, but Funeral, Bastard, and The Death of Music from the same show!!!!! You will get goosebumps when you see Devin get them himself while singing The Death of Music.

[@JessicaJones33333]

This song is such a vibe 👌🤩

[@chrisburbage6011]

Was at the Royal Albert Hall watching Devin a couple of weeks ago. Amazing!!!

[@chrisp.14]

I follow his art since he was the guest vocalist on that Steve Vai album and when he started off with Strapping Young Lad and his solo stuff. Devin is just so brillant. I saw him in 2019 in Berlin with his band, touring for "Empath", a few months before the pandemic. And it was so intense, so good.

[@erikmaronde2244]

Same here. Bremen 1994 with Steve Vai, Hamburg 2019 Empath-Tour. And I think there is still more to come.👍🤘🎶🖖

[@bertielee1]

@@erikmaronde2244 Saw him with Vai back in 1990 something and saw him a few days ago opening for Dream Theater. This guy is a monster! Accomplished musician, singer and frontman. At both shows, he was incredible!

[@PhantomOfTheMall]

He wasn’t just a “guest vocalists” for Steve Vai, he was THE vocalist for the band that Steve had called “Vai”. For some reason, though, on iTunes it’s listed under Steve’s name and not under the band name. (I was already a fan of Vai by then, but discovered Devy with that project. (The band was filled out with Terry Bozzio on drums & T.M. Stevens on Bass)

[@chrisp.14]

@@PhantomOfTheMall chill...

[@PhantomOfTheMall]

@@chrisp.14 🤣 Chill? Dude, I was far from being "spastic" or from any other condition that would require a suggestion to "chill..." 🙄 The only reason I mentioned those little factoids is because some people might not realize that Steve had formed a band for a short time. I'm not referring to the backing musicians that could be referred to as a "band", but one that was actually given a name..."Vai". Yeah, I used your terminology of "guest vocalist", but I didn't tag you in my comment...so I wasn't addressing you directly. You may or may not have known the information I provided in my statement...but then, I don't care if you did either way. 😁 (See? SEE? Now I'm being a bit "spastic" and therefore probably need to "chill" at this moment. 🤣) What does it all mean? It means: Have a nice day!

[@mincentprice1041]

Love you Guys - It's crazy that you've done a bunch of Devin, and you still haven't heard a fraction of what he's capable of vocally. The records are excellent - but the live performances are so emotional and intimate. And he just gets more versatile every year. Always a great time here Cheers!!

[@manna6618]

I adore Heavy Devi so much...I recently suggested this exact performance to my fave new channel 2GEN REACTS...and they didn't like it. And they love metal, apparently. To say I was gobsmacked is an understatement...thank goodness you get it. Devin is an alien sent from another world, I adore the line 'You are a Sun Goddess'...stunningly beautiful, only Devi has the balls to say that. Thank you guys, you restored my faith in humanity. X

[@APaganPerspective]

Devin was insane in strapping young Lad

[@hamsicle]

I guess you could say that Royal Albert Hall is a cool arena.

[@Thystonius]

Love how you both feel the music - that's what DTP / Hevy Devy does for me

[@UpsideZown]

"He's already like 'I got the coolest guitar.'" You're not wrong. Devin has some of the coolest Gibsons, and has MULTIPLE custom built Gibsons for touring. I personally think his Ziltoid Flying V is the coolest. Its huge and has a built in smoke machine because of course it does.

[@cbfpropertyservices]

Can't believe you haven't done Deadhead yet! So good! Even though he was sick...

[@caiexaf]

"Devin never disapoints". Period.

[@digibirder]

Yeah, Funeral, Basterd, The Death of Music at RAH. The best concert footage I've ever seen. Dev will rip out your soul!

[@chromosomeboo]

React to Devin's three-part performance at the 2015 RAH [Funeral, Bastard and Death of Music live performance] It is an amazing trilogy of songs. Awesome reactions! 😎👍

[@zacharyharwell351]

Devin Townsend sings like his songs are exorcising demons, and the more intensely he performs the more efficient the exorcism

[@craigoliver3709]

I highly recommend devins song, "Why" the live version

[@ralfmeyer9086]

Funeral, from this concert. 🤘

[@lonspangrud5983]

Devin and Tatiana are the bar that has been set. Show me two other singers/musicians who have the range and versatility as them.

[@Nemendril]

Floor Jansen

Floor Jansen, Brittney Slayes, Courtney LaPlante…

Ha my recommendation this morning from KZbin was "Ih-Ah" so it's a Devvy kind of day

you should react to bastard live on his ocean machine youtube concert

[@nimaside]

This has to be a re-upload. That's the old background and look how low the video quality is.

[@75dt21]

Early review from you guys, you have come a long way since you recorded this. Your reviews are so much more polished now. However any stuff you guys do is great

[@johnnywood8082]

He was supposedly sick at this concert as well

[@brontepetropoulos4755]

I HOPE WHEN YOU HAVE TIME could you please play Vanessa Amorosi in my opinon she is one of the best female singers in the world, she has a range you wouldn't believe, Perfect is a great one to start off with SHE IS OZZY Many thanks Ozz
