Who has love for the Dev?

Shout out your allegiance to he who can do no wrong, mourn his possible retirement from music, and talk about your favourite moments in his illustrious career.

I must say, I love Strapping Young lad but if they never made another album I wouldn't be too gutted. I'm more into his solo stuff, I need another solo Dev album! More stuff like "Storm" and "Life", top grade, feel good metal, I need a break from all the tr00 grim stuff sometimes!

Long Live Dev!

If The Dev came out with an album of similar magnificence to Accelerated Evolution I would... well... I don't know what I would do really. But it would be unbelievably cool!

I still have to get the album with Sit In The Mountain on it as it is my favourite song ever.

As for his retirement from music. I really think it's not the kind of thing you can just ditch like that. I get the feeling he'll be back in one way or the other.

DEV IST KRIEG!

Petef2007 is on a distinguished road
Devin's one of the biggest musical idols i have, i'm just blown away how he can write something as brutal and out of this world as some of the SYL albums, then just do a complete U turn and come out with music like Terria or Synchestra.

Lets say hypothetically he does completely retire from music...i think i speak for the majority of us when i say he's more then left his mark.

And in terms of favourite moments, just personal preference but i still reckon "Earth Day", "Deadhead", "The Death Of Music", "Canada" and "Away" take some beating

Truth.Integrity.Strength.

I thought he was just retiring from SYL and touring but still planned to make music. He is a freakin' genius, though.
