Citation: For drums, I went to a blues club way up in the North of Canada and saw Duris play, I am very conscious of drummers and the energy they bring to the bands, so I watched him to see what he was going to play for the drums fill in the song. He kept staring the tom down throughout the song, sizing it up... when the opportunity came, he just went "BANG." One big hit in a two-bar spot — perfect. Then he looked at the drum like, "What are you gonna do about it?" That's the vibe I wanted for the drums here. Nothing to prove, but strong and a bit angry.
Quel baratin de merde, la batterie sonne comme une boîte la moitié du temps...

Pour le suivant, y aura Anneke Van Giersbergen dessus si mon anglais est encore valable :
Citation: Former THE GATHERING and current AGUA DE ANNIQUE singer Anneke van Giersbergen has issued the following update:
"Here I am in Canada, working with Devin Townsend for our new album and... for his new album ('Addicted') as well. A very interesting week indeed.
"Though we had the idea of doing something together, we had no specific thoughts yet, only the distinct feeling that we would hit it off because of mutual respect for one another and a nice phone conversation.
"I came up here with a blank piece of paper and good faith in my suitcase and we were right, we're doing some great stuff here!
"In the daytime, we record vocals for Devin's album. He pretty much knows what needs to be done so I am at his service to provide him with the necessary vocal stuff. In the evenings, we jam, write new songs and demo them for my new album. It's a classic case of win-win, don't you think?

Encore mieux, elle participe au prochain Devin, et en contrepartie ils jamment et composent ensemble les démos du prochain album d'Anneke.

Suprenant album que ce Ki ... l'enchainement "aint never gonna win / Winter / train fire " est terrible ... les morceaux les plus softs sont clairement les plus reussi et heureusement ils sont nombreux... par contre ses morceaux bourrins comme Disruptr, Gato & Heaven Send sont insupportables ...

S'il n'y avait pas marqué Devin Townsend, personne ici n'aurait écouté cet album.

pour le moment, je suis assez deçu... c'est plutot les morceaux soft justement que je trouve raté, enfin surtout trop longs. mais bon, je ne l'ai pas encore vraiment ecouté en detail.
si chinese democracy etait pas estampillé guns, tu l'aurais pas écouté non plus, REM^^, je vois pas trop le rapport, si la qualité suffisait pour faire parler d'un groupe, depuis le temps ça se saurait. et inversement.
c'est pas forcément un mal que townsend se serve de sa notoriété pour se permettre de faire écouter des trucs moins accrocheurs au premier abord, sans single ni rien.

Je sous entendais que c'était tout pourri et que seule l'étiquette Devin Townsend faisait qu'on pouvait trouver ça bien alors que c'est zéro.

Canadian musician/producer Devin Townsend (STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, STEVE VAI, LAMB OF GOD, DARKEST HOUR, GWAR) is preparing to release "Addicted", the second in a series of albums to be made available under the DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT moniker.
Commented Townsend: "With 'Ki' [the first DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT album], I kind of strode out in uncharted territories for myself musically, and loved the experience. But during the course of writing this four-record project, it was inevitable that I would end up writing a selection of tunes that were very much in line with my back catalogue. This group of songs is the second record in the series, and it is called 'Addicted'.
"Musically, 'Addicted' is along the lines of the big, wall-of-sound hard rock/heavy metal of OCEAN MACHINE and [THE DEVIN TOWNSEND BAND's] 'Accelerated Evolution' — even PHYSICIST at points. It is a very direct and 'to-the-point' album with an emphasis on groove and the chorus.
"In the past, lots of my records end up taking a kind of PINK FLOYD-ish route (between song meandering etc.). 'Addicted' is really simple: 11 rocking songs and no bullshit. I wanted to make a record that was heavy, without being dark or depressing.
"When I got into metal, it was for the energy behind it, but somewhere along the way, that energy started getting really negative.
"In music right now, there's a ton of heavy bands that are really depressing to listen to loudly. I wanted to make a record without any real deep metaphor on the surface. Something that sounds good, has a good beat, and a positive feeling. It is still heavy as all-get-out, but I think there's a differentiation to be made between being 'peaceful', and being peaceful but wanting to celebrate loud, crushing music.
"The vocal duties on this record are handled by myself and Anneke van Giersbergen [ex-THE GATHERING]. (I wanted to have male and female vocals kind of 'tell the story' so to speak) It's an honour to work with her and she has a lovely, lovely energy. The other musicians on this record are Ryan Van Poederooyen on drums, Brian Waddell on bass, and Mark Cimino on guitars.
"I love this record; it affects me in a way that I wasn't prepared for. It's a fully rocking album of optimism.
"If you just want to 'play it loud' without any crazy metaphor, this album might be for you!
"On other notes: I have been rehearsing with a new band, and we will start touring in early 2010, representing all the back catalogue of solo material, from 'Ki', 'Addicted', PHYSICIST, ZILTOID, TERRIA, OCEAN MACHINE, THE DEVIN TOWNSEND BAND, INFINITY etc... I have some big plans for this and rehearsals are sounding amazing. The touring entity will be called 'DEVIN TOWNSEND' and is essentially a way for me to get out there and interact again and showcase 15 years of music that never really got its fair shake. We look forward to seeing you out there!
"I will start the work on the fourth record, 'Deconstruction', in Los Angeles in October. Some great plans for that... (and by the way, THAT is a heavy record with a lot of metaphor...). News on that as it comes!
"So I hope you will enjoy 'Addicted', in the theme of the DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT. The reason 'Addicted' exists is maybe a little deeper than what the record sounds like upfront. But upfront, it kind of states: 'Life is tough, the world can be an ugly place...so let's forget about the dramas and ROCK — here's some heavy guitars, big choruses and killer beats."

pas mieux ... ce sont de bons titres cela dit mais bon, le principe est discutable ...
je suis curieux d'entendre son mix entre Ocean Machine et AE ... seules les pointes de Physicist font un peu peur vu que cet album est une bouse fumante ...

Le teaser m'a fait sourire, c'est déjà ça !
L'album a l'air de ressembler plus à du Devin que le précédent et l'apport d'Anneke me semble intéressant, je trouve que sa voix se marie très bien avec la guitare.
Attention, j'ai presque entendu du Muse et du Ayreon sur certains passages...
Myspace Devin a écrit: September 30, 2009
MUSIC!!!
Hail Stravinsky! Hail Behemoth, hail Enya, Tom Waits, Grotus, Kings X, The Clancy Brothers...and YOUR BAND. Passion is the key, I have NO CLUE what life is about.
Every day we wake up is a good day. The ups and downs is what brings the beauty to light. We all want to rock, don't we? I mean...I know the music I make doesn't appeal to everyone, but it's from the heart. Enjoy as part of a complete breakfast.
Addicted is record 2 in the 4 part 'Devin Townsend Project'. It's made for people to enjoy. Simple as that. I've always had a soft spot for 'easy' music, and part 2 of the story is about the need for that.
The people I assembled for this one were for very specific reasons. 2 of my oldest friends, Mark Cimino and Brian Waddell, my awesome drummer buddy Ryan VanPoederooyen, and one of my favorite singers ever to run the feminine side of our program, Anneke Van Giersbergen of Agua De Annique.
We are all around 40 years old, 3 of us have kids, and we're all on a similar page. Addicted isn't irony, it isn't a judgement, it's not a religious record, in fact, I don't even know what the songs really mean...but the words in the sequence they're in make me feel GOOD, and I can use a bit of that right now.
When I dance, I look like a mosquito on a hot piece of steel, but it feels GOOD to express things physically, to sing, to grieve, to be angry, to love, to pontificate, to forgive, to scream, to build, to deconstruct, to reconnect.
I don't know what else to say...this is the next record in a long line of records, I'm working on record 3 now. Be well, forgive yourself...see you on tour.
Respect, Dev.

Mouais... Devin qui gueule par dessus un gros riff vaguement indus à la con.
Quand à la miss Grimbergen, on l'entend pas beaucoup et ça apporte pas grand chose.
Dans son interview dans Rock Hard d'il y a quelques mois, Devin disait voiloir faire un truc direct, accrocheur, dansant et catchy sur cet album. Si c'est ça qu'il appelle "accrocheur"...
