Devin Townsend est un musicien multi-instrumentiste (entre autres chanteur/guitariste/claviériste) Canadien né le 5 mai 1972 à Vancouver. Il est découvert par Steve Vai à l’âge de 19 ans et enregistre l’album Sex & Religion avec ce dernier. Dégoûté par l’industrie de la musique, il fonde l’ultra brutal Strapping Young Lad avec lequel il crée un nouveau genre de Metal extrême et sort le chef d’œuvre de violence contrôlée City. Le célèbre groupe de Heavy Metal anglais Judas Priest lui propose d’occuper la place vacante de chanteur en son sein après le départ de Rob Halford (une des idoles de Devin), mais celui-ci décline l’offre, préférant une indépendance artistique totale plutôt qu’une reconnaissance de masse.
Ce personnage à la créativité débordante mène également une carrière en solo sous son propre nom d’abord, puis sous le nom de The Devin Townsend Band. La parodie de musique « branchée » nord américaine Punky Brüster ou des chefs d’œuvre comme Ocean Machine, Infinity, Terria ou plus récemment Synchestra montrent un artiste ambivalent, plein d’humour et très soucieux de la qualité de sa musique.
Après avoir sorti en 2007 l’album Ziltoid The Omniscient, Devin Townsend arrête la composition et se tourne vers la production.

Devin Townsend is amazing. I swear he's going to be super famous... whether with the next album or whatever else, he's going to be in league with Zappa by the end of his career.

Addicted! is awesome. Ki was the best record he had done to the point when I heard Addicted! and Addicted! is like right up there with Ki. I'm high as shit but yeah you get the point.

UliQue a écrit :
rihanna uses the auto-tune for effect, not to fix her voice, retard. and devin doesn't use auto-tune, but he uses enough effects to alter it from sounding natural.

The new album is fuckin awesome! Keep the amazing work up!

MICHAELETRON a écrit :
oh come on. a Rihanna fan is saying Devin is overrated, shit and boring? lol'd. really? at least Devin doesn't use autotune to mask his singing.

"my chemical and panic at the disco are emo? ah, you right wingers. so ignorant." Noone really said that except you... : (

@ontheupside: I get that. The way he has the opportunity to do anything and just pump out the albums, maybe I'd find myself just doing whatever too if I was him. Why not. But Addicted... it makes Ocean Machine:Biomech seem like Close to the Edge in comparison. But I don't have to be on board with this one, I know he's getting back to more interesting stuff for the next album.

Let's just hope he doesn't change his mind between now and then--the guy is practically known for being a bit ADD about his music...

Oh my god, I heard about Z² earlier today. I cannot fucking wait.

LiquidEternity a écrit :
I don't think the phrase "most overrated musician ever" should ever exist without being in close proximity to the name Taylor Swift. Or someone like her. Don't like Devin? Fine. You're missing out, especially if you've played alt. rock and emo to death. But it's your prerogative. Getting on Devin's page and saying purposefully moronic things simply to have people attack you just so you can have more attention is almost as juvenile as posting youtube comments about Chocolate Rain.

ontheupside a écrit :
I think what dougy means is that the idea of the album is to highlight all the really GOOD bits of cheesy, poppy music. Dev has said that he's a fan of ABBA, Enya, Vengaboys, really loves the sound of Nickelback, etc. So my guess is he wanted to put his own twist on that style, and I think it's worked very well. If there's a little bit of humour and satire in that, then that only makes me like it even more, it's Dev's signature in a way. It isn't really a "throwaway" album, but he said he's sort of trying on different styles, expressing all the facets of his musicality. A funny pop-album is one aspect of that.

dougydarkangel doesn't know devin personally and has no sources. therefore, he is clearly talking out his arse to appear superior in knowledge of the music. in a "haha, you don't get it cos you are not as smart as me" style.

ashweegasm a écrit :
Such hostility.
-
metalegghead a écrit :
@dougydarkangel: That is clever. A throwaway album as a joke to poke fun at bad music.

GenesisRisen a écrit :
yeah, brand new, my chemical romance, at the drive in, panic at the disco and fall out boy. you're either a troll or just a dumbass, not sure which is preferrable in this case. either way, while you're still entitled to your sorry and misguided opinion, keep it to yourself, because the disparagement of devin townsend from a twat like you is like north korea telling the US what to do: no one really gives a fuck what you think and everyone thinks you're an annoying cunt anyways.
