Oh wow, both of those sound great!

Holy moley, those samples made me excited for these albums all over again. Less than a week till we can hold these babies in our hands, people!

Ok, so that I'll know this ahead of time, is there a way to buy these bonus tracks and download them off iTunes in WAV format? I know almost nothing about iTunes.

No, it comes as AAC and its encrypted with your iTunes account info. Theres an easy way to decrypt though, and actually the last few tracks I bought even played off my PS3 without me even doing so I'm not sure if its even DRM'd even more. Also it might require you to buy the album (again) to get the bonus track so I think some of us will be relying on somebody else for the b-sides.

Doesn't look like either album is on the Canadian iTunes store yet.

Good new review, i think: http://www.thatsnotmetal.com/2011/06/devin-townsend-project-deconstruction.html

Haven't seen that one before. Always nice to see people acknowledging that Devin does what he wants. It's always a relief.

The comment about Ghost upsets me though. "What kind of tool would want Ghost?"... I know I shouldn't care but... what an asshole.

Haha, I can't tell if the elitism in that article is a joke or not, but either way it's hurting my brain .

Say what you want about Devin Townsend (I certainly said and say a lot of things), but there's a level of respect you have to give a guy who does what he does musically only for himself. And I don't mean in that bullshit sense where Metallica or In Flames will tell you something along those lines, only because it's a great excuse to play what makes more money.

AMEN TO THAT! This guy pretty much nailed what I've been arguing about with my brother ever since Ki was released.

Decon/Ghost got a very positive review in one of the bigger german mainstream newspapers: http://www.abendblatt.de/kultur-live/article1925035/Devin-Townsend-der-raetselhafte-Poltergeist.html
