TERRIA

Bought this cd a view months ago, after I listened to Ayreon's "The Human Equation". I like the part of Devin on this record. But I have to say that I never heard of Devin Townsend before (Same story with Heather Findlay from Mostley Autumn). So I have to thank Arjan Lucassen, he invited Devin for his last Ayreon record wich I mentioned here before.

When first listening to "Terria" you will immidiately recognise a musical genius behind it. After a view listens more you will totally blown away by the power and musicality of Devin Townsend! This record will almost immidiately starts with a great metal sound. Later on the cd will be more acceseble but still keeps the metal spreading it over the record without giving the metal to much influance. Although "InsideOut" records notices to store this record under "metal" I do not agree with this and it better should be filed under "Progressive Metal", but thats my opinion.

On the website http://www.hevydevy.com/ you find more information about Devin Townsend if you're interested.
