Its got about 4 great songs, and then a bunch of songs I could take or leave. Kind of standard for Devy solo project?

BUT let it be said that train fire rules very hard

Yeah I dunno I'm kind of a half fan at this point, but what I have digested rocks. The first 6 tracks here I'd say work pretty well. And I think Ziltoid is a wicked album.

soon

Ki - quiet stormish songs

2nd album - heavy but catchy songs

3rd album - very heavy, what Dev intended Strapping Young Lad to sound like

4th album - ambient

Anneke van Giersbergen (ex-the gathering) will be doing lots of vocals on the 2nd album. i like that, she's my favorite female singer :)

I forget if it's the 2nd or 3rd album that Dev intends to have a whole bunch of known Death Metal vocalists do guest spots on

everyone is hoping for Åkerfeldt obviously

LOVE Winter! And yeah, Trainfire does rule a bit. :)

It's a good album overall for sure...

Looking forward to hearing the full version of 'Resolve!' off the second one though...

Big Devy fan here. Ki and Addicted are both awesome. My favorite album of his is probably Terria, but it changes all the time.

Quote:
And we’re doing a bunch of festivals, like really good spots at some big festivals in Europe, starting in the summer. One of them is – we got this incredible offer to do a musical. The record I did before this four-record project was called Ziltoid the Omniscient (2007), right, and it’s a kind of a silly, in a way, musical, about this coffee drinking alien. It’s a metaphor for a bunch of things but on the surface it’s this alien puppet. And when I first released it people were just like, ‘what the fuck man, this is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard,’ but it’s been a couple years and people are like, ‘actually, this is like really cool.’ So Finland offered us a substantial chunk of money to do the whole album, with screens and a choir and performers and the whole works. I’m really excited about that. Again, it’s like the ship just keeps floating and I’m just kinda along for the ride a lot of the time.


sounds quite interesting :)
