DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT – Epicloud

DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT – Epicloud

Multi-dimensional artist Devin Townsend isn’t content to remain stagnant with his music. Chances are just when you think you figure him out, another curve ball or 180 degree twist is thrown into the mix. Such is the case with "Epicloud" from the Devin Townsend Project. Alternative, progressive, melodic, heavy, eccentric, addictive- all accurate adjectives when taking in "Lucky Animals", "Where We Belong", and "More!" among others.

Throwing down a virtual grab bag of decades of influence (80’s electronic pop, new age, Pink Floyd, and his known metal roots), Devin Townsend Project includes Anneke Van Giersbergen on female vocals, Ryan Van  Poederooyen on guitars, Mike Young on bass and Dave Young on drums. "Epicloud" is a 13 track, 49 minute dream sequence of a record, filled with heavenly choir parts, beautiful keyboard sequences and the right amount of electric guitar capacity to keep your ears returning again and again.

You may snicker, you may smile, you may cry- ultimately this will evoke visceral reactions, and that’s what Devin’s major motive in life is.
