Devin Townsend (The Devin Townsend Band) is a side project of Strapping Young LaRAB lead vocalist and guitarist Devin Townsend. Its been called the happy side of SYL. Its really progressive and unique and its just awesome. Has a new album coming out May 22nd as well. Im soo stoked. I think that Terria is his best album by far and everyone neeRAB to have it. I'll upload it here soon.

"Tiny Tears" off Terria (2001) is easily my favourite Devin Townsend solo track. For some reason it reminRAB me of some of the music from Majora's Mask...
 
I'm a big fan of his stuff with SYL and I also loved the Ocean Machine record. That stuff was amazing. I have Infinity which is awesome. Physicist was cool but it sounRAB like a mellower SYL. The Ziltoid record is a trip. The guy is a musical genius.
 
Im not really a big metal fan. I do like Pantera. This guy's solo stuff is catching my attention. I looked up SYL not that big on it though.
 
I've heard many good things about Strapping Young Lad and Devin Townsend, however I never have really have listened to either.

I might listen sometime soon :)
 
ThreaRAB merged.

And I quite like Devin Townsend... it's nice to hear some prog metal with an original sound. In fact, I'm listening to Terria atm.
 
Listen to as much of the Townsend solo stuff as you can... there seriously is not a dud track on any of the man's solo work, garanteed... seriously ranks up there with my top tier of favorite musicians...
 
Townsend's one of my favorite artists. He's just so inventive and like nothing else out there.
I'm excited and getting insanely anxious for the new DT Project albums next May.
Anyone else a fan?
 
Definitely City for me, it's one of my top albums by anyone. Townsend's solo work is pretty good, but I've never found it quite as consistently great as most SYL.
 
MASSIVE fan... there isn't a single dud album the man has made! When Ki and Addicted came out, I lived, drank, ate, slept and breathed those albums for months, and they're still on the very top of my music listening tree this very day...

Not to mention that is how I've felt about every single album the guy has made... months of obsessive listening and I don't think I've ever been able to be bored with any single track...

That being said, I am literally dying of anticipation for next may... the last two DTP albums are THE two most exciting new releases on my musical radar for next year and, aside from Radiohead and anything new by The Church the biggest two albums on my radar, period.
