So is anybody else here a fan of Heavy Devy or SYL? I personally really enjoy his albums Infinity and Synchestra. The New Black and Alien by SYL are also definatly worth checking out. Opinions?

I just started listening to Devin a few weeks ago actually. I am quite impressed with his albums. I haven't listened to any Strapping Young Lad albums yet. But I will.

I like the Priest covers I have heard by him and SYL. I guess I have to check him out soon. I got the Steve Vai album he sings on, though. Haven't heard that one for at least ten years...

That Vai album is awesome, and completely different to any of Devins other stuff. You all should check out the albums in my first post.

SYl is great. City is SYL's best album in my opinion, but the rest is also good. From his other projects I like Synchestra.

Great shit all around, I was lucky enough to see SYL before they broke up too. Devin's releasing a new album pretty soon and there's a teaser up on his myspace. Doesn't sound too bad.

Townsend is a genius. Not many people can just release album after album of mindblowing stuff. And 'City' is one of my favourite albums.
Also, that teaser on his MySpazz sounds awesome. Can't wait. Plus he changed his mind pretty quick about not releasing any more music didn't he? Or was it just the touring he stopped?

I've never actually listened too SYL or Devin. Not sure why just never heard a lot about them anywhere else. Or maybe I just wasn't listening? hah. Anyway, I'll check them out shortly. Sounds like they're pretty cool.

Devin and the musicians he plays with are all at the top of their game. Zimmers Hole is another band he produced that kicks.

I am interested to hear the new album from Heavy Devvy "Ki"

I never got into Devin Townsend or any of his projects. In my opinion, he's the biggest weirdo in metal history and I don't mean that in a really positive way. He's creepy!

I was listening to Ki last night, it seems pretty cool, a bit mellow for repeated listens but it certainly is a top notch album.
