Casualties of Cool 'Flight' - Official Promo Video

Devin adds:
Casualties Of Cool is one of my favourite things, if not my favourite thing I've done to date. It’s pretty left of centre, and now that my big Z2 project and all its chaos is nearing completion, it means even more to me. A dark and quiet place to go.
Finally, its available for people who didn't order through Pledge, and I'm proud to present the video for ‘Flight’, done by long-time friend and collaborator Konrad Palkeiwicz. Konrad moved to an Island and filmed his interpretation of the song and I think it's beautiful.
We have been rehearsing for our upcoming shows at Union Chapel and Savoy Teatteri in Finland, and it’s really a pleasure to have the ability to do this type of music. Thank you for the support!

I keep coming back to this album... it fills my soul with joy..
Not enough comments here about how beautiful Che Aimee's voice is. From the first time I heard this album I was bewitched by it.
Me too!!! 🤯🥰😈🤘
Truth! She is...just wonderful!
😉
Transcendental. ❤
Some people do Ayahuasca when they want to explore the deeper recesses of their soul. I feel I experience something similar when I explore the expanse of Devin Townsend's musical catalog and come across songs like this and Equinox.
The lyrics of this song speak of missing someone. In listening to them, I realized the person I had recently been missing most was my own inner child. I also realized he was still within me. This world has hurt him, so he withdrew for a while -- but he is still there, and still mesmerized by all the beauty this world has to give.
it is been years since I discovered this song and yet here I am listening with the same joy as the very first time :)
Me too!
This is what true love is.
music is not a race, BUT devin is winning
Devin is unable to create bad music.
He is an actual genius. Also, Che has a gorgeous voice...so much texture... Shes very talented from what ive seen.
Never heard "Heavy as a Really Heavy thing", I take it? Epicloud was also rather divisive, but YMMV. I liked The Hummer, so....yeah...
@@becky7854 reading your comment one year later; I concur with you, Becks.
@@KnjazNazrath "Heavy as a really heavy thing" is amazing. And I had no idea epicloud was diviside, it's fantastic lol. The Hummer is not really "music", it's an enlightenment accelerator programme. :P
I can just hear devin in my head "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!" haha. But we know it would still be awesome
There is something absolutely hauntingly beautiful about this song. I have no childhood memories to it yet it's so familiar that it has that feeling. I just can't explain it. This has become the song my man will put on when I'm struggling with my depression. He will take me for a night time drive....and I'll stare at the moon and stars ...and I feel at peace. My soul feels this song ❤️
Dev is my spirit animal.
This song is so beautiful. A wonderful marriage between song and video. Just perfect
High in the mountains of Colorado in a snow storm. First time I heard this. takes me back. Every time.
This is so damn amazing. Casualties of Cool is probably one of the best things to ever come out of Devin's ingenious head. It's different from anything I have ever heard, it's deep, dark, and touching. Ché's voice is a whisper from the heavens. This is simply astonishing.
Really wish they come here to Brazil someday, I would certainly be the first in row to see them.
close your eyes...put your headphone on...turn on the music...drift away into this dark and quiet...blissfull place. Thanks Devin for making such great music
Takes my breath away every time
Beautiful.... I just wish some of my friends could appreciate the beauty in this song!
Me too
SAME. Devin is not an acquired taste. You just hear him and fall in love or you don’t. That’s just how it is
@@chrisbrecht1535 I don't think so. I showed a buddy of mine Devin awhile back and he hated it. A lot. He then fell in love with SYL and realized the song I showed him was by the same guy!
He now has literally every album Devin ever released in HD and vinyl (nearly)
Sometimes it takes time to understand Devin.
get better friends
@@f4u5tus bit late to the game... But for confirmation, I did!
And so it goes
The window left open
I find myself drawn
To the evening
Oh, throw me out
I'm already leaving
Oh, float me down
To my reaping
Paint the streets red
With my decision
Feed the pidgeons
With my collision
I am beyond all this
I wash my hands of it
This is my request
Wish me the best
This is my request
Wish me the best
Now I fall
Now I call
I'm colder
How much I miss you
How bad I miss you
What a song. *What* a song.
I think this song was about 80 minutes too short
Too right!
I love the way Devin always manages to find ways to surprise and delight. There are very few artists with his talent and willingness to try new things. Keep it up Devin.😀
Ché makes it so easy to fall in love with her voice.
This one is the first Devin Townsend song I've ever heard... It still makes me cry, exactly like the first time...
devin you found perfection just amazing this is one of those songs when you hear it for the first time LIFE STOPS and you sit there with your jaw on the ground and you just want it to never end
I'm so glad the best track on the record got a music video
Flight was my favorite for a while, but right now I'm really digging Bones
Matt Cooke Yeah, Flight and Bones would be my favourites off the album, no doubt
Matt Cooke
and wait when you come to The Field... oh god
meshugeah Oh man, that's another good one.
Matt Cooke I love how you both are communicating after a gap of weeks on which tracks are best. It just goes to show what a beautiful album this is and how every song becomes a discovery. I don't have much hope or faith in the music of today but this song really made me think otherwise. I was listening to this on my nice drive home and came now to hear it again and saw your comments, so glad that you all love this as much I love this track. I'm gonna give Bones and The Field an attentive listen too. Can anyone recommend similar artists/songs such as this one? :D
For me, the greatest album I've ever heard and I like to think I've listened to a lot of different music. Works for most settings whether for work or play. Also a great pairing for psychedelic experience. Immaculate.
best song on the album!
This is an extraordinary song. I ask for it to be played when I've breathed my final breath and started to fly out that window into whatever it is that awaits....so it goes indeed....

Sadly I'm not that charmed by the video, but the song (the whole album) is by far my favorite 2014 album and I can't see anything dethrone it till the end of the year. I know that in 20 years I'll still be listening to it. Instant Classic.
Have to say: I love most of what you do Devin, but Casualties of Cool is absolutely my favorite thing so far.
How can this only have 166k views when I've watched 80k times.
you have so affected my life Devin Townsend ty from the bottom of my heart ty
Exactly what she said.
pay it forward :)
The first time I listened to Casualties and heard this song, I knew it was special. One of the most amazing things in Devin's catalog.
Like everyone I have periods of favorite songs and albums/ artists but something about Casualties of Cool feels like the best album ever
This video is perfect for this song. Devin is always heavy, but in a different way.
As soon as the first line hits…”and so it goes” wet eyeballs
Love 😉
Thanks Devy. See you in Chicago!
This is exactly the song I need right now.
as a house/jump up/ hardstyle / hardcore fan i must admit this is a real beauty, its dark but comforting and nice to listen to and relax, it makes you think about your life
Thank you for this album, it is so beautiful
For any wake that might be held after my death this is one of the tunes I'd request be played.
The window will have certainly been thrown open and I'll be well on my way out so, please, wish me the best. As I do you.

Gives me chills every single time I listen to it!! The melody is so nostalgic and the video makes me wonder about a lot of things!!
couldn't be more awesome
Holy fuck this is absolutely beautiful. Truly.
In my opinion their best song so far !
This album gets to me so much. I've been returning and listening to it throughout plenty of shitty times the past two years and every time it just gets me. This song in particular just destroys me.
it's amazing how music can be so strong.
Can't even describe how much better this song sounds on the record itself. Go, buy it! :)
So much grace in this one.
I can see how Konrad interpreted the song like shown in the video, but it's hard to translate this music visually. But then again, it's his interpretation. Not gonna say a bad thing about it. This album is special to me, thanks Devin.
Thank you for making Canada proud Devin. You truly are an inspiration
I was resisting listening to this as I've been waiting to order the digipack from Devins store. I gave in yesterday and I was utterly gobsmacked. Straight away one of my favorite songs. Looking forward to hearing the full album and can't wait for the Union Chapel show, I think this song may make me tearful on the night.
Truly a special project. Many things came together to form a beautiful and unique record.
Devin is absolutely amazing
I WANT THIS SO BAD! Devin is My Fav Singer of All time! You Rule Devin!
Thank you so much for sharing so much of yourself with us. It is very much appreciated.
Such a phenomenal song and album. I'm so glad I was able to contribute to Devin's crowdfunding for this one.
What a beautiful song. Ché Aimee Dorval's voice is perfect for it. The film clip is very good too.
Hauntingly Beautiful!
literally perfect.. konrad is a friggin genius, the range but also consistency of spot-on nailing of emotional qualities between this and the video for Coast kinda reminds me of Devin himself
Absolutely gorgeous video.
Kindred spirits from the same dimensions. Love!
This is the highest of compliments, this song is the best for naps. Soooooo relaxing.
DAMN! I love this song! I love it so hard!!!
So excited about the Savoy theatre show.
I never got into this album fully. I gave it a couple of listens and did not jive with some of it and thought he rest nice but nothing stood out as a favorite. I am not sure why this one popped up on my feed but I am glad it did. Great song. So glad I got to see Che with Devin in Toronto in early 2020.
Just simply amazing Devin. Your music carries me through life. Thank you and please keep up the fantastic stuff! :)
This is what a real Muscian is about,,,"A Constant Searching",,and Devin is one of a few!
come back to Winnipeg,,soon!

You know which song off this album needs a video? Bones.
projectbaum Dunlop Sessions video :)
Plus we get to know that Devin read an essay
Wow! This just became an instant favorite! Can't wait to listen to the whole album.
somebody said this sounds somewhat like Anathema,i think it does have that vibe..still bliss,the song and the message
Just beautiful 👍
Just too good.
This is so peaceful!!
Very beautiful song and video
Magnificent piece of art
2:58 really is one of the highlights of the album for me.
This looks awesome!
Beautiful video, compliments the song well.
can't stop
Nice video, it's stunning with purity O_0
Good job !
Oh god! this is beautiful!
Sublime. We love you Devin. :)
Magnificent!
this song makes me think of children who are kicked out of their household for being different(gay, atheist.) ie: "don't throw me out, i'm already leaving." "i am beyond all this, i wash my hands of this, this is my request, wish me the best." "how much i miss your love"
amazing production awesome video
Love it :)
So gorgeous.
amazing...
The subtle bass boom at 3-4 seconds always makes me jump a little.
