Achtung, Devin Townsend fans

I'm thinking of buying one of his CDs. Please advise me on which I should get.

Thank you.

Don't get mad spiff. He does that to every thread. Simply can't help himself. If he doesn't start a thread, he has to make it into his one of his.

Back to topic: Get Terria. It might be a little hard to get into a first, but it's brilliant. Infinity and Ocean Machine are very good also. Physicist isn't his best work, but that doesn't really mean much when you're talking about Devin Townsend.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

He's overated, don't bother.

 

[Southy]

Yea Terria is IMO Devs best work could take more tan one listen but it is brilliant

 

[Cyclonus]

Ocean Machine!!!

Strapping Young Lad - City!!

Two opposite extremes... one is atmospheric prog stuff, the other is industrial thrashy brutality...

Grr...

 

[Southy]

Yea but Terria.....bloddy ell

SYL

 

[KoichCPA]

Buy everything,then buy it again. Thats what I did.

 

[Winmar]

City by SYL. The best by far. Their No Sleep Till Bedtime live album rocks too.

 

[Hanso]

Ocean Machine - if you some more laid back rockin stuff with emotion.

SYL - City If you want to make your ears bleed.

Terria - if you want to close your eyes and let you mind wander inside his songs.

Infinity - Is more layered songs. Some heavy with a pop sound and some just out there (ants) .. the song BAD DEVIL is awesome

 

[mattt]

i agree with Hanso, Bad Devil does rule!

 

[Kem]

City, Spiff, it absolutely kicks arse!

Don't listen to those other nay-sayers

 

[Spiff]

Well, I bought Terria. I figured anything named after a breed of dog had to be worth checking out!

 

[Southy]

good to see ya did something smart for once spiffo

 

[Spruce Goose]

You like it Spiff?
You posted that you bought it but no feedback?

Dev is a fuckin genius

 

[Spiff]

Gee, this is old. I do remember liking it, haven't listened to it in ages though. Must dig it out some time.

 

[Sydo]

So did you get The Gathering?
4 years later that album still has no peer.

 

[Spiff]

Yeah, The Gathering is awesome.
