There's two albums. One is an EP.

The first album is called 'Ki' and has 14 songs.

A Monday
Coast
Disruptr
Gato Negro
(Purge)tory
Stand
Waveform
Heavens End
Dinosaurs!
Lady Helen
Ki
Addicted
Quiet Riot
Demon League

It's not a band thing. It's the 'me' show, starring...me. I had talked to both Gene and Ryan about the drums, but decided in the end to go with someone totally different, style wise as well as scene wise. The dude's name is Duris Maxwell.

Ki has a bit of everything... a real purge. Complete 72 minute disk.

The EP has been written at the same time and is just an absolute chaotic bizzare alien headfuck called 'Deconstruction Of A Cheeseburger' and is primarily electronic and guitar / Orchestra orieneted. (no drummer, not DFH tho...) I'm trying to get a grant to use a real orchestra and choir. It's fucked and awesome. Based on Karl Jungs collective unconcious and how anything (a cheeseburger?) can be traced back to the source. It will probably be released on the web. We're about to start working on a new site.

Been designing amps and guitars with dudes. I'll let the cat out of the bag soon. Some cool stuff is on the horizon.

No more producing for a while :tongue:

Filming the whole process for a bonus disk, (editing myself with Final Cut express...ugly bastard) ...taught by the Meatball.

Getting PT8 next week.

I'll get you more info soon.'

Fantastic news Devin, thank you very much for posting all this!

I have one teeny weeny question though....the image that you posted; what is this from? Did you create it yourself?

Cutting together your own video is fantastic. It is amazing how many things can be done individually thanks to the power of human-enslaving machines.

Awesome!

I was wondering if that was the cover art as well. Is that The Dev?! :o :)

Pretty epic in any case!


Well, it is the Dev show, starring...Dev.

Who else would have that guitar? :D

Oh score - I was hoping that was him, I couldn't imagine it being anyone else; but... I thought I'd ask anyways :) Those look like Mr. Devin's fingernails - kinda small and nibbled-like. <--that sounded creepier than I meant it to, I don't just sit here, studying Devin Townsend's fingernails. Promise! :lol:

I, like everyone else here is damn excited about Ki or whatever Dev decides to release....

I do however have 1 concern........Why would Dev want to deconstruct a cheeseburger????

I like cheeseburgers and think that they should only be deconstructed in ones belly!!!!!

Maybe it's an ambient EP of digestive sounds. That would fit in with the "alien headfuck" description. :shock:

Same here! I was beginning to wonder if I'd never see a Devin concert ever, since it seems like he got kind of worn down from touring and all that business.

Surely if he toured again, he wouldn't pass up little ol' San Francisco, California?! It's only one of the most fascinating cities in America :mrgreen:

And to throw my cents in...
Derrida's deconstruction is a linguistic force always already at work in every piece of speech or written text. Therefore, the Cheeseburger would/could deconstruct itself.
