CD ReviewsJust Great Rodrigo Zuniga | Chile | 06/08/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "I'am a big fan of DT and I think this album is just another surprise for me. I agree is not as "experimental" as the rest, I'm always going to thank Devin for his tremendous talent and music. " This is SYL, just not as insane... Michael Cassell | Tupper Lake,NY | 06/13/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "I checked the other reviews and nobody mentions that this disc's musician line-up is indeed Strapping Young Lad. This disc more than any other "solo" Townsend disc sounds closer to syl.. Now you know why.. Anywho..to keep this short and sweet: Buy this...it's great just like every other project he's done.." You Never Will Betray!...... Jacob G. Adams | Larwill, IN USA | 06/16/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "This was one of last Devin Townsend albums I purchased along with Ocean Machine. I had just recently gotten into Devin Townsend at the time and I loved Synchestra and Terria to death. Accelerated Evolution was cool and Infinity was epic, but when I was listening to the 30 second clips on amazon, the intensity, the in your face kind of music that Strapping Young Lad would perform but it had the melodies and effects of an Infinity, I drew a big liking to it right away.
I've been listening to this album on and off for about two months now and this album is great. While it is not the most well crafted album of his work, and it doesn't even come close to comparing to albums like Ocean Machine or Synchestra, the concept of Strapping playing their version of Devin's solo material is great. The best tracks are "Namaste" and "Material", and the album does have a bit of adjusting to enjoy, since almost every track is screamed out by Devin, and songs like "Death" and "The Complex" would be something that Strapping would put on there album as a hidden track. But if you like Strapping Young Lad and Devin Townsend, this is a perfect album to try out because it is a great mixture of both." |
