Bravewords a écrit:DEVIN TOWNSEND - New Audio Interview Available: "Another Three Or Four Albums Ready To Record"

As previously reported, during an interview with BW&BK's Carl Begai covering his Deconstruction and Ghost albums, Townsend offered some details about his next project, EPICLOUD. An excerpt from that discussion is available below:

Anything Townsend turns out is bound to be a surprise in the end regardless of pre-release hints and descriptions, and Epicloud is no exception. He does his best to illustrate his intentions, and lets fly with one totally unexpected revelation guaranteed to get jaws flapping once they’ve been yanked off the floor; Epicloud will feature the star of his Addicted record, AGUA DE ANNIQUE vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen.

“This next thing I’m writing, I’m writing for her," says Townsend. "The next bout of material… the drama, the metaphors, the complications and all the heavy shit that went along with the past four or five records have been worked out as far as I can see. Even when I was making Deconstruction and Ghost, I remember thinking that I didn’t really need on an artistic level to make it so dense and so challenging to listen to. So, the stuff that I’ve written now is highly melodic and has very simple structures. I’m finding that what’s coming out naturally now, the guitars are still heavy and it’s still got that epic sound, but it’s very different for me vocally. There’s no screaming; it’s melodic and ethereal-sounding vocals.”

“When it comes to playing live, I think I’ve got a really strong voice for what I want to put across. Specifically in the studio; I can do what I need to do, but my voice isn’t very resilient when it comes to performing live. So I find that after two or three weeks of touring most of my daily struggle is to make my voice not sound like it’s completely bagged. With the new stuff, hopefully I’m going to write all the heavy and hard singing parts for Anneke (laughs).

Devin Townsend a écrit:The fabulous Anneke just arrived for the Tuska show, went over some Epicloud stuff with her. Getting' our metal Sonny and Cher on! \m/

The DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT are gearing up for the release of a new box set dubbed Contain Us, featuring Devin Townsend's recently completed tetralogy of albums: Ki, Addicted, Deconstruction, and Ghost.

Some highlights of the box set include:

• A 12" x 12", 64-page, perfect bound book featuring a charcoal linen hardcover with ink-less debossing of the DTP logo on the front and applicable titling on the spine.

• DTP albums will be housed within the front cover's pastedown while the 4 unreleased discs will be in the back.

• 500 individually-numbered, limited edition copies that include two exclusive items:

a) An autographed lithographic print featuring original artwork by Devin drawn exclusively for this edition
b) a 10" piece of vinyl featuring two exclusive tracks.

There is some discrepancy with regards to how many box sets will actually be manufactured, with suggested numbers running anywhere between 2,500 and 5,000 copies worldwide depending on the source. We'll keep you posted.
