The middle of this video (3:20) is quite funny. Devin just rants about crappy “wank bullshit.” Needless to say, this man continues to be one of the best people ever.

On an unrelated note, I finally got Ki and it’s awesome. I expected nothing less…

-Ziltoid

  • FranticDav

    Indeed.

  • bucketochicken

    Devin Townsend (and his music): Something upon which Zilty and I can finally agree.

    Glad you like Ki. It is indeed quite terrific.

    • http://www.metalsucks.net Axl Rosenberg

      Agreed. See? We all have at least one common bond! Hoo-ray for unity.

      • http://www.metalsucks.net Vince Neilstein

        Definitely the best thing posted so far today. Devin is a true genius.

        • Deaner

          yes… thank you for this…

    • Gaia

      My trouble is that he only JUST got it. Ki is just brilliance, with Addicted in the pipeline. Devin is the man , and I found out yesterday there is a Video of Coast on hevydevy.com
      TELESCOPES ARE GAY!

  • Matt

    That vid was so awesome, thank you ziltoid

  • Canvas Of Flesh

    Great video!! Devin Townsend is the man.

  • Phro

    Well. He’s certainly a talented guitar player. And watching dude freak out was entertaining but…
    IS IT METAL!?!?!

    • \m/Matt\m/

      Yes, because he can shred and freak out at the same time

      • \m/Eluveitie\m/

        So can Angus Young, but is he metal?

        • \m/Matt\m/

          Is metal, metal?

          • \m/Eluveitie\m/

            I’m tempted to say no, just to see if it’d be metal…

          • Mitch

            I am of the opinion that merely discussing the “metalness”, if you will, of any given piece of music is indeed the most metal thing to do; listening and enjoying is, of course, for those weaklings that would rather just sit back and let people make and interpret art as they wish!

    • Rik

      Doubting the metal-ness of Devin Townsend = not metal.

        Not to argue with you, but…

        Are you familiar with the term metahumor?

  • Sex Lemur

    If this was facebook, I’d hit “Like”

  • Uglymicrowave

    holy shit thats hilarious

  • Johnny

    hes godly

  • Walker

    He is clearly off the meds and can’t wait for the rest of this masterpiece to be released.

  • PlanetSmasherN9

    Awesome video. Can’t wait for Addicted, Deconstruction, and then the next one (Reconstruction?)

    When he stands in front of that black backdrop, with that black hat on it looks like he has no top of his head. It is messing with my mind, man!

    • Sean

      I was just thinking the exact same thing

  • Permafrost

    Genius.

    Devin is any genre he wants to be PERIOD, great vid man..never seen this before

  • metalguy

    not a huge townsend fan(solo anyway) but still the best thing posted today

  • http://richarddawkins.net/ RICHARD DAWKINS

    THIS GUY IS A COMPLETE NERD AND SO ARE YOU ZILTOID.

    • Necrokvlt

      Such manners :)

  • http://buttor.blogspot.com Buttor

    big surprise… you like devin townsend, like no one knew…

  • groverXIII

    You only just now got ‘Ki’? For shame, Zilty, for shame.

    • Ziltoid

      No store near me had it, and wanted to buy it in person. I bought it at the first store I found it in. It’s sad that it took this long, but it was worth it.

  • Joss

    any chance we will get to see him performing the new stuff with his new band live?

  • Joss

    awesome video btw

  • http://www.myspace.com/northwestroyale Blake

    Best video I’ve seen all fucking week. Kudos!

  • (required)

    This guy is obviously awesome, but I question his use of wankery to decry wankery. Let’s just hope he never decides to rail against gun violence or gay interacial midget porn.

  • http://www.myspace.com/somethinglikesweet CJ

    Awesome! Definitely best post so far today. Well done Ziltoid.

  • The Great Danton

    That was incredible

  • Brendan Seigel

    Most epic use of slides EVAR

  • Joss

    so anyone know if he is gonna perform his new epic stuff live? pleeease

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Keith-Brown/537636633 Keith Brown

    BWAHAHAHAHA

    Okay, this convinces me, voting for Ziltoid was a good idea

  • http://neverontime.wordpress.com Sleepy

    I can’t stop watching this and laughing. Wow Ziltoid, great idea.

    Orgasm

  • ThrashandDestroy

    Best post ever

  • Ja5oN

    By no means/stretch of the imagination am I a conspiracist, but IMHO I think “Ziltoid” is in fact Devin Townsend!

    • prives

      Please don’t defame HevyDevy that way. Devin Townsend is a complete fucking genius, whereas the troll known as Ziltoid it a total fucking bell-end.

    • Ziltoid

      Yeah, don’t defame him that way. I wish I was as talented as Devin Townsend.

  • Sammy

    Ziltoid, you ignorant slut! Where is the trainwreck I voted for?

  • Malacoda

    The first time I saw this I lawled for 10 minutes.

  • Bicro

    If only SYL was still together and toured….only in a perfect world.

  • noobpotato

    Just makes me want a strapping reunion more :(, not saying is solo stuff sucks, my love for ziltoid (the album :P) is bigger than the fucking moon

  • Brutalizer

    He is quite the character….

  • Mike2

    Devin Townsend is such an under-rated musician, I can’t believe this guy is still underground after what he did for the music industry, he’s been an influence for so many artists around the world…

  • http://www.kingdomofnoise.blogspot.com MetalMatt

    Devin “The Crazy Canuck” Townsend is incredible. At anything he wants to do.

    I am still warming up to Ki. I am a ball of rage so it takes me some time to get into softer stuff. It’s pretty damn hypnotic though. And Dev’s NOT on weed anymore. huh.
    I still am!

  • mickey-luv

    the man could ditch the earth tone/pearl jam bass player-like headwear/nineties grunge look though….
