One of the craziest, off the wall, intense, dense, complex, absolutely insane and gloriously absurd albums not only Devin has made, but anyone has made this decade. With guests and musicianship that will make even the most hardened metalhead gush, this is a record that further shows that Devin Townsend is the mad scientist of the metal scene, and he's not scared to try out even his weirdest experiments.

Favorite: Everything (Especially Deconstruction, The Mighty Masturbator, Stand)

Thanks for the album trade @b1dd0

What a fantastic soup of musical geniuses here, it was even better than I expected to be honest. Will definitely revisit this a lot

My brother came to the room while I was listening to The Mighty Masturbator and asked what I was watching

One of the most unorthodox metal albums ever. It's extremely chaotic but a shitton of fun. It's prog metal that's obviously not meant to be taken too seriously but still has some exceptional writing. At 70 minutes in length, it does unfortunately drag a bit. But it leaves enough here for me to want to revisit this more.
