    They are a Canadian cult death metal band. Best in the world, IMO. I fucking love these guys.


    And I have their drummer on MSN, so hah. :p

    I've only heard Devin Townsend's solo record, "Ocean Machine".

    And I like that shit alot. I know it's totally different from Strapping Young Lad, too.

    Yup. Just how I like it. I lve for the most aggressive shit on the planet.

    @Casey-Yeah, I have all of Devin's solo albums, as much different from SYL as they are, i still love them.

    If you want a kick in the ass, listen to Shitstorm. But add me on MSN if you wanna hear it, don't download it.

    Shitstorm is good. Only SYL song I've heard, though.

    Because downloading their stuff(along with some other bands) could end up ruining their careers. They're not exactly rich, you know.

    if you add me on MSN, I can send you the song. I buy the albums, upload them into my computer and unshare them.

    You know that's how many people find out about these unknown bands, right. By downloading?

    EDIT: Your logic is flawed, too. You say not to download it, but what you're doing is sharing a song too that doesn't go towards the band profits.

    Well, you do have a right in saying that. I guess so. Don't download too many, ya hear? :p And yeah. My logic is a little flawed.

    I'll buy the album even if I already have it downloaded on my computer. It's all about the artwork and presentation of the CD, you know.

    As much as I love Trent Reznor, the man couldn't be any more wrong on the subject of the death of the CD booklet. It's a deciding factor for my purchases most of the time.

    I'll give you two songs you should download-


    Shitstorm
    Far Beyond Metal



    And yes, Reznor is wrong. What do you think happened with Hybrid Theory? :p

    I thought it was because Chester had nice hair in the Crawling video.
