Canadian singer, songwriter and producer Devin Townsend has been using the COVID-19 downtime to work on new material for upcoming albums, and for a current lack of touring possibilities and encounters with fans on the road he decided to do a series of live albums, quarantine albums, and generally interesting projects that keep people entertained while he's busy on his next larger releases. The series is called the "Devolution Series". Devin comments: "So we bring to you the 'Devolution Series': a grouping of oddities and interesting material that I would like people to hear, but don't necessarily want to present as a 'major release.' "The series will include all the quarantine songs and concerts, as well as various live shows from the past few years. "I am currently deep in the writing of my new projects and am very excited to be doing so. Thanks for facilitating my ability to do that, and I hope you enjoy the 'Devolution Series'." The second release under the "Devolution Series" moniker will be the "Devolution Series #2 - Galactic Quarantine" album, scheduled for June 25. It was recorded in 2020 in various places around the world as a replacement show for the COVID-affected "Empath Vol. 2 European Tour" and canceled summer festivals. It originally aired on September 5, 2020 on StageIt.com. For a first impression of what to expect, watch the video for "Aftermath" below. "Devolution Series #2 - Galactic Quarantine" will be available as limited CD + Blu-ray digipak, 180-gram gatefold 2LP (including the album on CD) and as a digital album.
