    Many of you know that I sang some backing vocals for Devin Townsend's upcoming album "Lightwork", set to release later this year. And as I haven't had the pleasure to listen to the album just yet, getting exclusive early access to the second single Devin's releasing is just absolute gold. And I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS!!!

      Devin's been releasing radio friendly stuff for decades... The first Devin Townsend album ("Infinity") from 1998 is as full of tracks like this as it is with weird, experimental stuff like "Bad Devil" or "Noisy Pink Bubbles." "Addicted" is basically a radio hard rock album which he released in 2009 and is one of my favorites. "Ghost" from 2011 is an entire album of extremely mellow, soft rock.
      Ocean Machine has certain tracks on there which are as accessible as it gets (IE: "Regulator") for a hard rock band, and that was released back in 1997. If anything, he was getting far more success with his heavy metal band, Strapping Young Lad at the time he released "Infinity" and "Ocean Machine"... If he was doing it for financial reasons, those projects wouldn't have made sense, and breaking up SYL right as their popularity peaked back then would make even less sense.
      He did reform SYL a couple years after he broke it up initially... But he claimed that all the craziness in the wake of 9/11 and the start of the war on terror was his justification for reforming the band. I recall as I was lucky enough to see them live both before and after that hiatus... and they became a LOT more popular in the years after that hiatus until he disbanded them again to focus on The Devin Townsend Project for similar reasons as to why he broke up SYL in the first place.
      None of that sounds like a musician who has any need to make choices based on finances, it sounds like he is only at the mercy of his inspiration.
      He makes a good living as an independent artist; he has no record company debts to worry about or the cost of the overhead for belonging to such a large organization. He has more money than he really knows what to do with at this point, even when he spends a lot on production of his albums and his live show.
      Back in the late 90ies he was a lot closer to a starving artist, there were jokes about in the linear notes of the first two SYL albums, but nowadays he's pretty much the model for a successful independent artist. He really doesn't need to adjust his aesthetics to anyone.

    Speaking of collaborating with Devin, you've yet to really feature long-time Devin friend and collaborator Anneke Van Giersbergen. Afaik you've only touched on her in passing one time. A grave oversight. She's an amazing singer with a unique style compared to other female metal vocalists, and a trailblazer who single-handedly popularized female-fronted metal. There's really only one place to start, and it's the song that launched her into every '90s teenage metalhead's dreams, Strange Machines by The Gathering.

    Humans love looking at nature and it has been proven that hanging out in forests is soothing to us.
    Watching footage of nature from trains is a chance to see just so much beauty, in such a short period of time.
    We didn't evolve to move as fast as we do with trains, humans are collectively mostly unchanged from our hunter gather ancestors 20,000+ years ago
    I think people like watching footage from moving trains because it feels like magic to see so much nature when it would have taken weeks to walk the distances we can travel in hours.
    Also, wheels go spinny. Clackity clack.
    (The sound of the wheels is also very symmetrical and people *love* symmetry)

    Trains may be calming because of their great momentum. They don't come to sudden stops or make sudden turns. They keep a regular rhythm which you can hear as the wheels pass over the tracks. It's hard to stop a train, and when a train stops it happens gradually. The same can be said for large flowing bodies of water.

    The train videos are calming simply because everything is going exactly as it should be and you can see the clear path forward. It's a nice break from reality.

    • @TheCharismaticVoice
      @TheCharismaticVoice  2 года назад +1

      Because of Japanese label concerns and copyrights, we generally steer clear from them. I'll do a little research though to see if Kirk has connections at their label, and if we can get things cleared first. Thank you for the suggestion!

    You were close, even very close regarding that there must be something more than just one vocal there. Yes, I personally am 99.99% sure that in the background, as the second voice, Anneke van Giersbergen has been working with Davin for many years. Your dear, beautiful voice. I recommend The Gathering "Strange Machines" live '96

    GGGarth Richardson follows in his father's (Jack Richardson, Nimbus 9 studios) footsteps as a recording engineer and awarding winning producer. GGGarth has worked with Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Taylor Swift among many others. GGGarth has a studio called the Farm located on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, Canada. It is a beautiful location. Devin and GGGarth have create something special with this new album if the rest of the songs are of the same caliber as "Call of the Void". 🎸🎤☀😎

    Hi! I just now came across your reactions. Really like them!
    May I suggest an interesting band? Amaranthe, they have three vocalists. Two clean (male / female) and a harsh vocalist (sadly he recently left the band). You'd be (I think) blown away by the harsh vocals in their song BOOM!1 (intentional spelling). It features mostly the two male singers with a vocal surprise from the female. Or maybe the song PvP where all three are featured. That's actually the theme song for Swedish e-sports team.
    It would be awesome to hear your analysis of this band.
    Keep up the great work! I'll surely tune in more times!

    @The Charismatic Voice 'God jul' means Merry Christmas in Swedish, Norwegian and Danish. 'God' = good, 'jul' = Christmas.
    From the recordings I think Devin was in Sweden, probably swinging by Morgan to say hi and build a snowman with him.

    So looking forward to the release of Lightwork. The first two singles (“Moonpeople” being the other) are absolutely fantastic. For those unaware, “Call of the Void” was originally released as a demo song back during Devin’s quarantine sessions in early 2020. The demo is really good but the new chorus and arrangement he did here takes it to a whole other level.
    Demo version:

    Please, please, please!!! You HAVE to react to one of my favorite groups since high school (02'-05').... Coheed and Cambria! The lead singer Claudio Sanchez has a voice so unique, it's astounding. And please react to a specific song first called 'Mother Superior' in acoustic. I'm begging you to delve in the creative world of coheed. All of their songs are based on comics that they write called Amory Wars. It's so unique, and so amazing a world to tap into. The story telling is dark and mystical. The feeling and emotion of their music is sublime... I promise they will captivate you! Thank you 😁

    I know everybody's asking about "The Death of Music (live at Royal Albert)" and it's a great suggestion, but I'd rather see you react to the fantastic "Canada Live Plovdiv (Blu-Ray)" or even "Deep Peace Live Plovdiv (Blu-Ray)" a song with one of his most beautiful guitar solos.
    Now if you end going for "The Death of Music" you should definitely go for the full experience and do "Funeral/Bastard/The Death of Music" to enjoy it in all its 29 minute glory :)

    Honestly, he has had many mor atmospheric releases that are solid. But the reaction I’d love to see is covering him with Anneke Van Geirsbergen (spelling is likely way off). But The Gathering is a band worth visiting as is.. but him with her (Ih-Ah the best example) is just a masterpiece of vocals.

    Please do a reaction and analysis of the astonishingly expressive singing of Steve Walsh of KANSAS. This progressive rock band is legendary and shows what a group of classically trained musicians (including a violinist) can do with rock music. Steve Walsh is not only an exceptional voice but also an extraordinary keyboardist. Both are immortalized in either one of these videos with great vocals and masterful compositions!
