    Little known fact: this is how Devin recruits his session musicians. He puts a bunch of them in a room, puts on a blindfold and points while singing "Hire, hire... Hire, hire!".

    I remember sitting in my apartment by myself during covid depressed as hell and ugly crying near the end of this song where he talks about the news making you feel like life is shit but not believing it and life is beautiful. I didn't feel it at the time but he really made me feel it. Really was in a rut and Dev helped get me out of it.

      My friend my entire life has been shaped by the Metal scene, age 7 I became a Guns N Roses fan , I was lucky to have an older Brother who spent all his money on Metal CD's .
      The true Metal scene has something no other music genres have , Metal heads follow their beloved bands around the world , we buy their music , we wear their names on our clothing.
      This music scene saved me from many foolish decisions & also healed many broken hearts.
      Pearl Jam to Sepultura I loved it all . Strapping young Lad are also the most powerful band I've ever seen live , at Download 2006 they wobbled my intestines , I've endured Slayer mosh pits , lost a shoe in a Pantera crowd surf , but still nobody fucked me up more than Strapping young Lad.
      God Bless Brother , You are not alone

      But he will still be making music bro. At least we get to have that. Devin has just said DTP was really great but it wasn't "right". I don't know what makes him feel like that but the guy is so super talented...Maybe he's a perfectionist. You don't get that good at anything without having an increasingly high set of standards for yourself. Maybe his next projects will be even better. Simply put, dude has some really amazing inspiration from somewhere. He's magic.

    It Doesen't matter, cause I'll stay
    But I'm not ready, I'm quite low
    So are we gonna go?
    Higher
    So we'll need a moment far from peaceful to know
    We've no reason to be frightened all the time
    Higher
    Sewing pieces of a lonely threadbare family
    Now the world is dying, how the mind must try
    Higher
    Craft your life, in ways you will be shown
    Craft your life, in ways you will be known
    Craft your life, in ways you will be shown
    Craft your life in ways that will bring your darkness
    I, the destroyer, shall not be contained
    But ah, keep strong
    Don't let the bastards grind you down
    Change direction
    I, I am I
    I am war by creation
    Higher, now go
    So you have grown, always I know
    I know
    And you, broken
    And theres your legacy
    It locked you in
    I won't be a martyr
    For love or the father
    So are we gonna go?

    Who ever was doing the lighting was insane and spot on. As soon as the music turned to the harsher parts, the lights turned red/yellow on beat. Once the music turned softer/more relaxed, the lighting turn blue on beat as well. Insane timing, the person doing the lighting knew the song decently well. 4:53 and 5:45 are great examples.

      This dude who uploaded it thought it was a good idea to run ads on something he didn't create. Must think that the minimal work of putting subtitles means it's 'theirs'.

Regardless of what labels we give things, the essential nature of "the thing" is unchanged. Shakespeare probably said it best several hundred years ago: "what's in a name? Surely a rose by any other name would surely smell as sweet".
