“LUCKY ANIMALS”: NEW DEVIN TOWNSEND SONG IS BOTH EPIC AND LOUD
Full Metal Jackie premiered “Lucky Animals” this past weekend, the first song to be released from Devin Townsend’s forthcoming fun-time extravaganza Epicloud, so naturally a radio rip has since made its way online.
Much like the rest of Epicloud (which we’ve now heard in full), “Lucky Animals” is vintage tongue-in-cheek Devin mixed with the melodic sensibilities that made 2009’s Addicted so great. Epicloud is a doozy — you can really feel that Devin enjoys making this kind of music so much more than uber-heavy/serious stuff like Deconstruction — and it might just be Devin’s best record since… well, Addicted.
Epicloud comes out on September 18th and is not yet available for pre-order because Century Media.
