Watch “Grace” From Devin Townsend’s Retinal Circus DVD/BluRay

Acrobats, contortionists, background singers, a choir, FIRE, oh my! Devin Townsend’s Retinal Circus production in London last year was quite the spectacle, and now he’s bringing all the glory right into your home via a DVD/BluRay that will presumably come out later this year. Here’s Devin himself on the current status of the project and what’s gone into it so far:

So closing in on 8 months of work, we’re almost finished with the Retinal Circus! It’s been a huge amount of work for everyone, from the show, down to DVD & Blu-ray authoring, artwork, logistics…(not to mention the show itself!) but we’re almost there, and when watched in its entirety, it’s really a heck of an experience!

To tie you over until it’s out, here’s a clip of the song ‘Grace’…It’s out of context obviously, but hopefully gives you a vague idea of what’s about to come out.

It’s been a ton of work for everybody and we’re really quite proud of it…when the final products have been produced, we’ll let you know!

Fun! Whew!!!

Here’s said clip of “Grace” from the Epicloud record, featuring the lovely Anneke Van Giersbergen on vocals. Also, can we please give a round of applause to Devin’s band? They don’t get much attention because, ya know, Devin Fucking Townsend, but Dave Young (guitar), Brian Waddell (bass) and Ryan Van Poederooven (drums) are all absolutely stellar musicians without which Devin’s live show wouldn’t be the same. Anyway, watch:
