After much wait, we can finally see this masterpiece. A few months ago, Devin Townsend played a sold out show at the world-famous Royal Albert Hall in England and brought his alter-ego Ziltoid to life with what I've heard was a massive performance. Devy also played some hits from his back-catalogue and now the video is coming out for all to see.
Here's a quote from Devy about the project and he seems psyched!
“The show at The Royal Albert Hall was a great experience. To be able to make artistic expression rooted in creativity and then to be able to articulate it in these sorts of ways- at this sort of venue-was pretty awesome. The whole thing was quite a challenge, but ultimately it worked and we were all very satisfied with it. I completely appreciate the support that has allowed this to happen from the audience, and I thank my team and Inside Out Records for busting ass to make this DVD a reality. I think if you enjoy what I do, you'll really dig it. Thank you so much for the opportunity!”
The live video will be out on Nov. 15th in many different formats. Per the press release:
The release will arrive on several formats including an Artbook of 44 pages incl. the entire concert as well as extensive behind-the-scenes bonus footage and a full documentary, pressed on 3CDs, 2 DVDs and a Blu-Ray Disc, as Special Edition Digipak with 3 CDs and a DVD and as Blu-Ray including the entire show and bonus material.
Pre-orders are not yet available, but we'll let you know when they are.
