Metal Hammer TV caught up with Canadian vocalist/guitarist/producer DEVIN TOWNSEND this weekend at Donington Park during the Download Festival, taking place in Leicestershire, England. Check the interview out below:
This September, the DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT and KATATONIA will team-up for the Epic Kings & Idols Tour, a co-headlining North American run featuring PARADISE LOST as direct support and STOLEN BABIES as openers (DTP and Katatonia will alternate in headlining each show).
According to Townsend, Epic Kings & Idols are now on sale from the following link. There will be a very limited number of VIP tickets for each show which will include:
- GA ticket- early access to show
- meet & greet with the whole band
- signed Epicloud CD
- embroidered work shirt
- VIP laminate
- tour lanyard
- very exclusive 7”vinyl
- Ziltoid hand-puppet
In regards to this upcoming trek, Devin Townsend comments: “So after a break in which we've managed to finish the live DVDs from the London shows (‘By A Thread’) as well as our surprisingly epic new record, 'Epicloud'...We're about to start getting into touring mode again, and it pleases me to announce that we'll be with some wonderful bands this Fall. I think this package pretty much covers the gamut of emotional heavy music, and really...It'll be nice to share the stage with some passionate folks who live for their music as much as we do. Again, we can't thank you enough for supporting what we do and allowing us to play for you. It will be nice to catch up, and we hope to see you there!”
Katatonia's Anders Nystrom adds: “A better bill than this will be hard to find!”
