For all of you who want nothing to do with my music, have tried and don’t get it, or think I’m a total hack, continue on to the next blurb, as I’m going to spend the next few paragraphs stroking myself and thinking that I’m super.

Anyways, heres a bunch of videos… it’s hard to give a solid overview after twenty-something albums, but anyways…

Me and Vai

There I am at nineteen years old, my first real gig.

Me and the Wildhearts

There’s me at twenty-two, moved to Birmingham, England for half a year or so. When I moved back I left my bangs there.

    Devin Townsend, you are amazing, I have no idea what i’d do with out your music. Probably live, but whatever it wouldn’t be the same ahhaha

    hevy devy for life!!!!

  • Tim-o-tato

    If people then don’t get, then in the words of Necrobutcher, “If they dont like it, THEN FUCK THEM!”

  • Lasher

    I would honesty like to kidnap Devin for one week. Maybe just keep him for a pet for a bit. He’s be a fun pet.

  • Burlap

    I’m going to be in the corner, masturbating, while Addicted blasts from my speakers… what a great way to end my work week.

  • Deaner

    Ocean Machine — One of my top five albums of all time. My brother loved it too, and we played ‘Life’ at his funeral last year.

    Devin is a nerd! Well more so many years ago than now I think.

  • ColinJ

    That Vai record is great. Devin’s singing on it is out of this world.

    And I’m glad Devin posted ‘Funeral’ from ‘Ocean Machine’ up. That song takes me to a wonderful place every time I listen to it.

    • ColinJ

      Although I wish he’d put some ‘Punky Bruster’ up there. That record is one of the greatest parody albums of all time.

    Thanks for the ShockHound shout out! :)

  • OhLookBirdies

    I watched that video of you and Krusher at some point, and a while after, I found out Krusher was the dude who designed Black Sabbath’s “Born Again” record cover, still considered by many to be the ugliest album cover ever. For some reason, this struck me as hilarious. I still can’t quite make the images of “Dude who designed Born Again” and “Stoner dude interviewing Dev” meet in my mind.

  • SYL Townsend

    Bought the Addicted album. Its fantastic but again it doesn’t beat Ocean Machine! I got hoodie package #1738. Corn’s Lookin’ Good!

  • iolanach

    Funeral – Best song Devin’s has ever written

    Terria – Best album Devin’s has ever written (Top 10 of the decade as well…)

    Addicted – One of the best albums of the year. Easily.

  • Malacoda

    I really can’t wait for Deconstruction.

  • Pluto

    Hope you come back to these comments and read….
    Just wanted to let you know ALL your music is an inspiration to me.
    I think I have all your albums now, and are eagerly awaiting more.
    “Ki” is just so fucking beautiful. Thanks for all the great art, it helps me get through each day and is with me always.
    I even like “Hummer” My gf and I listen to it in the bathtub and zone out.

  • Yep

    I would love the Ziltoid album but I cannot get over “Drumkit from Hell”. Too bad there was no superior drummer 2
