Never really listened to Devin, this is probably the first entire song I listen to....I've found whatever was missing from my life.

[@dantess2693]

Aha I discovered his music last week. Mind is blown.

[@Duncan_Idaho_Potato]

I'm a recent convert myself. I've been aware of him for a LONG time, but just ignoring him. What a fool I was.

[@ufukinwotm8434]

found him 2 days ago. didn't think something this epic and beautiful existed.

[@lumpy74]

discovering his music too, so powerful....seeing him live in february in a small venue and man I can't wait!!!

[@lumpy74]

I've been a fool too, time to make up for it

[@HersgoryJigurda]

You know someone's a great musician when he's got Anneke as a back vocalist.

[@alexanderlotharson5634]

That's Miss Van Giersbergen?!? Fuck, yeah! They should have kids. They would be the best singers in the world!

[@brandenbizelli654]

Celestial Metal

[@roofy3075]

I love when Devin has Anneke at the shows. The songs that feature her are just so much more with her presence available. Not that Devin can't knock this song out of the park solo. Which we've all seen on EMG tv.

[@DonTheMoron716]

She’s really something good!

[@earthling7355]

I love how she's having so much fun singing this. She absolutely glows.

[@earthling7355]

How the fuck is this so incredible. It's like a ten course meal in five minutes. Jesus.

The undeniable ultimate truth: Devin Townsend is a limitless genius.

[@ootzythementallychallenged1335]

al rod Devin Townsend not as technical as Metallica and Megadeth? You're hilarious. Also painfully clueless.

[@mathiasvbl]

al rod Please.. have you listened to some of the stuff he did with SYL??????

[@AndyGrigg]

al rod Even if those roots are killing you?

[@j3sper]

al rod Besides you being miles away from the truth, why would anyone want to be 'locked' in the same state over and over again? That sounds a bit conservative to me; it kinda implies that Devin cannot evolve as a musician... Which I am glad that he did/does...

[@000sicair]

Ootzy the Mentally Challenged Owl Ok let's be fair, Justice era 'tallica was pretty damn technical.

[@jordanj9069]

From Devin's first "I' being sang I cried almost instantly. I don't understand why, but I'm so happy we have something as powerful as music on our Earth.

[@GenXB]

I'm with you brother.

[@Mircheeks]

For all the bad shit on this planet, music is the pure innocence whereby it induces raw, primordial feeling. Devin strikes this chord better than anyone else (subjectively) with his live performance being unprecedented, in my opinion.

[@000MidnightSun]

I just saw DTP with BTBAM. It was my third time seeing DTP and I gotta say, he is a positive dude. Really makes you laugh and smile. He said that they wanted to show that heavy metal can come from a place of love. You'd never hear that at any other metal show! The other time I saw them with BTBAM he told us to hug the person next to us. He is truly inspirational.

[@mistercurls]

I'm seeing him and BTBAM for the for the first time in just a few hours!!! Devin definitely hits me in the feels like not many other bands I listen to.

[@themanwithamission]

I feel this.

[@Liz-cmc313]

Devin is not of this world but sent to show us what Heaven is.

[@taunokekkonen5733]

"So, about the show. Should we have background singers?" "Nah. We need a wedding."

[@DonTheMoron716]

I love heavy metal and some real shit! This is very touching. What a performance!

[@narvul]

What a drummer......!!!!

[@fleppie75]

Ryan is Boss.

[@anthonykey9706]

Awesome

yeah he's a really cool guy too, was lucky that i got to hang out with him a lot in Vancouver as i was friends with his wife Angela.

i dont know, I really need an answer to that question!

[@DonTheMoron716]

Too Progressive and intelligent. All of Strapping Young Lad is heavy as fuck also. Honestly a bit scary.

[@pentexsucks43]

I mean, him getting a lot of fame very fast completely crippled his psyche for a long time, so it's probably not the best thing for him lol.

[@StjDUK]

He is galactic.... Not just earthbound....ask Ziltoid 😉 Amazing artist and fabulous human being ...im in awe 😍

[@JakobStrand]

How the hell can this guy and his group sound just as great live as they do in the studio? The soundstage is absolutely killer!

[@Borlos.]

Cus highly trained musicians know what they're doing. Listen to any Dream Theater studio track at random, doesn't matter which, they're all masterpieces & individual puzzles imploding & exploding with too many different emotions, soundscapes, chaotic, gorgeous, angelic, bad fucking ass puzzle pieces. Then watch them do it live.... As far as I'm concerned there's only 2 letters needed for eternity.... DT & DT ... Dream Theater Devin Townsend Anything less is uncivilized..

[@JakobStrand]

@@Borlos. Been a DT fan since 1991 and I agree with you :D

[@VTVash]

@@Borlos. Honestly, I miss the Mike Portnoy era of Dream Theater, it just hasn't been the same since. I want to love their newer stuff but it's hard. Maybe that's the drummer in me talking. Devin is a god though. Can't praise his music enough. Saw him live with Meshuggah and Animals as Leaders - was amazing.

[@Casowsky]

@@VTVash Well, we didn't have to wait much longer!

[@raornelas]

Anneke one of the best singers of all times casually doing backing vocals for Devin ! :D

[@hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh6898]

I've listened to Epicloud so many times, it's pretty much a classic to me. My neighbors know every song just as well as I.

[@briangeorgebowes]

But this is from Physicist originally :P

[@smithyMcjoe]

@Thomas Grey I agree, still cracking though. I use it as a prime example of how Devy has matured musically over the years. Man's a god damned colossus.

[@matthewelliott9319]

His voice gives me chills.

[@anolaf]

You should hear it live. Goes from chills to fullblown cumming.

[@Duncan_Idaho_Potato]

Sounds messy. I'd hate to be the guy who has to mop the floor after a DTP show.

[@Andresmoomoo]

id clean it up with bread and eat it for breakfast

[@fernsehdesign]

he sang on Steve Vais „Sex & Religion“

[@goatbut29]

Fucking EPIC!! My wife who hates heavy music plays this song on loop when she's drinking and when I go in there she's got tears in her eyes. I know it's tears from losing our son after years of agony and I say nothing. Devin said it all. Thank you!!

[@anfie2495]

So much love to you both 💜💜💜

I had the honor of holding the guitar , while you shredded live. Devon only demanded to "Watch the strings!" Only one demand to a memory of an unforgettable experience. I love being Canadian and I love all of you metal people of the world.

[@NetherlordAxenrot]

AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

[@clarkhalstead]

Never listened to metal before, never heard of him until a couple of hours ago watching some vocal coach reacting to his voice and what a voice, what a track! This is not just thrashing of guitars, I'm a bit stunned at how easy this is to listen to. Phenomenal!

[@PotatoNo]

Welcome, friend.

[@samuelconnolly347]

Welcome :-). Devin's music is a bit all over the place (in a good way!) so there's a tonne of variety. Metal is a very diverse genre generally. A lot of symphonic metal (bands like Nightwish and Epica) are quite accessible for people with non-metal tastes, ditto with progressive metal (e.g. Dream Theater and Haken - Haken's music, like Devin's, is extremely broad). You do often get sucked down a rabbit hole and end up listening to the heavier stuff as well - once you figure out bands like Meshuggah they become strangely hypnotic.

[@mikedehooghblackflagracephotos]

So... a year later, any metal grown on you yet? Try some Ayreon: Dutch band featuring a lot of Anneke. Or her solo project: The Gentle Storm.

[@anfie2495]

Welcome to the wonderful world of Devin Townsend!

How did I find this feverdream? I just lost the only woman I have ever loved and our child. My finger so close to the trigger I could swear my skin is made of metal. I can't process the loss completely or why/how this song makes me want to survive and live again. The pain will ever exist always but I am convinced the sun will surely rise in the morning and I will be there to greet it. You will never see this Devin but nonetheless, thank you for saving a soul from self inflicted fate. I choose to live

[@jacobochaverri9842]

"Hell is here, but it hath no fury." I can feel your pain my friend, but this too shall pass. If music is the only thing that keeps you sane in this moment please crank the volume up and give yourself a second chance. Be safe, be healthy and be happy.
