Self-Titled Summer | Casualties of Cool (2014, Canada)

Our next Self-Titled Summer spotlight is on number 787 on The List, submitted by unsafelyhotboots. This is the sole album from the utterly prolific musician Devin Townsend as a duo with singer Ché Aimee Dorval, who previously appeared on the 2009 Devin Townsend Project album, Ki. No where near Townsend's home genre of metal, this is a moody concept album that "sounds like haunted Johnny Cash songs," particularly if Johnny Cash wrote those songs while trapped on a planet that ate fear.

Some darkness for your soul…

🖤 NIN – Reptile 🖤
▶️ youtube.com/watch?v=GJ-w0TAE-m

This performance… is not just a song. It’s a ritual.
Caked in mud, soaked in chaos, NIN took the stage at Woodstock '94 and unleashed something primal.
Reptile slithered through the noise like venom... hypnotic, filthy, irresistible.
I adore this version so much... it’s raw in a way few live moments ever are.

If you know more live performances with this kind of energy – please, I beg you, drop them.
I crave this vibe.

NIN is one of those bands where I only connect with a few tracks... but this one?
It’s No. 2 on my eternal top 100.
(Sorry Trent… No. 1 will always belong to TOOL. 🖤)

Same with Devin Townsend.
Tried everything, but only one track made it: Deadhead.
And damn... what a glorious punch to the chest. One of those “why can’t there be more like this?!” songs.

As a lover of modern prog rock, one name I keep hearing is #DevinTownsend. I get the sense that some of his albums are proggier than others, which are more straight ahead heavy metal. What would fellow prog-lovers recommend as an introductory album?

Olen sellainen yksilö, jolle hyvä musiikki aiheuttaa kylmiä väreitä ja euforian tunnetta. Devin Townsend on näitä musiikillisia neroja, jonka kappaleet väristyttävät, itkettävät, ilahduttavat ja saavat sydämen väreilemään silleen hyvällä tavalla.

Perjantaina julkaistun PowerNerdin kappale Ubelia päätyi välittömästi "Songs that give me shivers" -listalleni.
