DEVIN TOWNSEND – “Why” Animated Music Video

Canadian heavy music artist Devin Townsend released his acclaimed new album Empath in March, and will embark on the “Empath – European Tour Vol. 1” later this year. In advance of that, he has launched a brand new animated video for the track “Why?,” directed by DC Turner. Check it out above.

Over the course of the last 25 years, accomplished heavy music artist Devin Townsend has remained consistent. Consistent-that is-in that he’s rarely consistent in what we’ve come to expect from him. Constantly making unique inroads with many different styles of music, he has followed his particular muse in any way it leads him for almost three decades.

Although heavy metal and progressive rock has always been his primary focus, each year that passes recently has resulted in new peripheral works that have seen him branch off to everything from country, new age, ambient noise or even orchestral musical theatre. As endearing as that has been to his constantly growing fanbase, it has also made it difficult to classify with much accuracy what he does and what he represents. Who is Devin Townsend? What is his musical identity? With his new album, ‘EMPATH’, we find that Devin Townsend is actually all of these things.
