I REALLY like the new Devin Townsend Project-album, and therefore this "Group-page". I know, that you're a fan, Jon, and earlier I haven't really liked what you have posted here at CRB, but I want to give this guy another try, so which albums do I start with? I prefer the ones without cookie monster vocals, though.

Try "Synchestra", "Accelerated Evolution", "Addiction" and "Sex & Religion" which is actually a Steve Vai album. Stay far away from Strapping young Lad if you don't want what is some of the heaviest music to ever come out ever.

Ghost, Addiction and Synchestra are really good albums. The drumming on Synchestra are easily the best drumming I've heard on a DT-album. Is it a different drummer, Jon?
Ziltoid is okay and kind of funny (some times DT reminds me of Frank Zappa produced by Jim Steiman). Deconstruction is pretty heavy, but not bad, just too friggen heavy.

Each album has different drummers, but Addiction has a few tracks with the drummer on Synchestra.
