y a ça aussi en attendant :

Century Media Records will re-release STRAPPING YOUNG LAD's 1995 debut album, "Heavy As A Really Heavy Thing", in Europe on June 12. The re-issue features a re-mastered version of this classic debut, four bonus tracks, the "S.Y.L." video and a 12-page booklet with extended liner notes from Devin Townsend himself. As Devin recalls, "I had finished with THE WILDHEARTS just prior to this [1994], and they were so anti-everything that I decided to take a similar approach while focusing on dissonance and just being as over-the-top as I could. Songs didn't really matter; it was just the intensity and the vibe plus lots of humor. Screaming and laughing are pretty close, I think, and I have just never been 'hard,' so we do what comes naturally, right? Right."

"Heavy As A Really Heavy Thing" (re-issue) track listing:

01. S.Y.L. (4:46)
02. In the Rainy Season (4:37)
03. Goat (3:30)
04. Cod Metal King (5:08)
05. Happy Camper (Carpe B.U.M.) (3:01)
06. Critic (4:08)
07. The Filler – Sweet City Jesus (5:24)
08. Skin Me (3:30)
09. Drizzlehell (3:10)
10. Satan's Ice Cream Truck (2:34) (hidden bonus track from original pressing)
11. Japan (5:17) (originally a Japanese bonus track)
12. Monday (5:13) (previously unreleased bonus track)
13. Exciter 6:04) (European bonus track from original version; JUDAS PRIEST cover version)

+ "S.Y.L." video clip (4:50)

Commented STRAPPING YOUNG LAD mainman Devin Townsend: "The recording process went amazingly well, and STRAPPING as a whole is really excited about this effort. We were very inspired with the idea of doing Ozzfest, and the concept we are running with on this record is really based around abhorring the current music scene, yet being a part of it in some weird way. SYL is ready to be a subversive product for the unwitting 14-year-olds to scream along with. We also intend to sprinkle a little ugly around all the pretty bands this year. You can think of us as the proverbial pubic hair in the cheesecake of this year's festival. We are ugly, large and angry. We have also been around longer as a band than 90% the other bands. Most of all, we're just really excited to be a part of Ozzfest and this summer is going to be crazy."

Au moins un brûlot là dedans, s'il n'a pas été revu : Far Beyond Métôôôle !

pochette :

De Travis Smith ?
Non réferencée sur son site en tous cas.

Ce n'est pas la pochette, ce n'est qu'une partie de celle-ci eh eh eh... (source forum SYL)

Sinon ils ont tourné hier une vidéo pour la chanson "Wrong Side".

_You Suck.

Déroutante cette première écoute de l'album. Ca sonne très Physicist, et ce n'est pas pour me déplaire

Pareil, je trouve qu'il nous resert la même recette le Devin, mais c'est si bon!

J'aime pas. Autant Devin en 'solo' ok, autant SYL ça me fout mal au crâne rapidos. Enfin surtout ça, j'ai déjà entendu mieux d'eux il me semble.

Perso je n'attends pas grand chose de cet album, je trouve qu'il arrive un peu rapidement. J'ai un peu peur que ce soit le 'Rosenrot' du groupe.

On verra bien lors de sa sortie, et lors du concert de demain, s'il y a des nouveaux morceaux de joués.

Tu veux dire leur Hypnotize ?

Non, il voulait dire leur St Anger..

Tant que c'est pas leur Adrenalize, ça va...

Rémy

Leur DOD ?

Leur TOT plutôt non?

.. et si on lançait un topic sur les albums baclés, plutot !

Ecouté une fois, pas du tout accroché. Il me parait très loin de la qualité de City...

Faut réécouter.

Bon après une écouté, le seul titre qui m'ait scotché c'est la version studio de Far Beyond Metal, vraiment excellente.
Il était temps qu'elle sorte.

Le reste est pas mauvais, mais ça va demander plusiurs écoutes, j'en retiens pas grand chose pour l'instant.
