Post subject:  Devin Townsend and Gwar!?

“So the Sounds of The Underground tour was great fun and a heck of a way to spend the summer. Gene Hoglan (drums) filled in for Opeth on the SOTU tour while Jon from Devildriver filled in for Byron Stroud, who was out with Fear Factory...Polygamy! Good music, lots of friends and some great crowds. Also, during the SOTU, Gwar and I had a real meeting of the minds and decided to work together. I had a revelation while watching them and hopefully it's going to be the best record ever made, so watch out!”

“We are looking to do a U.S. tour starting late October and then head to Europe with Meshuggah. Japan and Australia will follow shortly after, hopefully along with a new video for ‘Zen.’ I'm currently recording the new Devin Townsend Band record, which is great and soothing. Strapping thanks you for your patronage! Rock out with your cock out.”

Hopefully Devin can make GWAR good! GWAR have gotten by on their gimmick for too long! I'd say 75% of their music is complete shit. They have some great songs, but for the most part they suck.

In fact, I'd say that 75% of music is complete shit..

GWAR write good songs, play them well, and ADDITIONALLY put on a famous stage show.. they're not getting by on their gimmick alone, there's work behind the live act.

I completely agree. If you don't see that GWAR works their cuddlefish off, you're a fool.

" Wow! how did you make such convincing rust???" - it takes years of training my friend... years of training... and 4 man-hours, plus alot of extra research on how rust developes on terminators :?

btw, i'm not really a terminator :oops: i just made that story up to get some attention :cry: but i learned something today... just be yourself, and people are going to like you even more. Don't pretend to be someone you're not... :oops: unless ofcourse, your true self is very annoying... (just like me :roll: )

First off, everything Devin Townsend has done has been amazing! But I can understand where some music fans just won't like it. As for GWAR, I appreciate their act, truly, but I don't see where their music is anything special! I mean if GWAR weren't a metal band, they'd have been done ages ago (see Green Jello). Metal fans love the shock value of GWAR, but I don't know too many people who view them as amazing for their music!

I've seen GWAR live a million times, and I've loved it. But rarely do I find myself pulling out a GWAR CD to give it a spin!

Yeah to bad he just recently did something for the Osborne’s show. Supposedly he did like the final theme song or something. I can't remember were I read that.

I guess you guys haven't heard War Party. It's a damn fine thrash metal album. And yes, they are extremely hard workers, everyone who does anything for GWAR is part of the slave pit, it's all just one big happy family.

I'm not a fan of GWAR's music (or thrash metal really), but they're live act is FUCKING AWESOME - you can NOT say it is just a gimmick.

Hmmm...the only thing I know is Devin did some commercials for MTV. He played a crazy music conductor I think, they had something to do with the Osbournes. And don't start thinking "Sellout!" This guy will never be an MTV posterboy:
