By Your Command
For your enjoyment — Devin Townsend Project performing By Your Command
A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of seeing Devin Townsend in concert. To put it mildly, it was one of the most inspiring performances I’ve seen in a long time. Thanks to YouTube user superskum, you can sample the wonder that is the Great Canadian Metal/Nerd Hero.
While most of HevyDevy’s catalogue is worthwhile, Ziltoid the Omniscient is one of my all-time favorite records. At times, I think it may have been written just to suit my tastes – a concept album about alien invasions, black coffee, metaphysics and puppets? What’s not to love?
Even without the skullet, Devin Townsend is a goddamn hero.
