  • Description

    Devin Townsend's career is one of many distinct eras. He's been the leader of Strapping Young Lad, the lynchpin of the Devin Townsend Project and the co-architect of country duo Casualties of Cool, all while maintaining his prolific and lauded solo project. Now, the polymath's newest era starts with PowerNerd: a succinct but still progressive record that pulls from its mastermind's childhood love of vintage rock.

    From the moment the title track ignites the record with a roar of "PowerNerd!", Devin's 28th studio project is a gallop of melody, noise and emotion. The opener and "Knuckledragger" are all-out, high-speed rampages, their impact intensified by their central figure's signature 'wall of sound' production style. However, that aggression is far from the only thing to come from Powernerd's 11 episodic tracks. "Dreams of Light", by comparison, is an evocative and dynamic four-minute ballad. "Younger Lover" calms down from an explosive opening to lush verses of synths and singing, whereas "Falling Apart" and "Jainism" add texture after texture on top of dulcet, acoustic introductions. With each song also having an irresistible hook at its heart, Devin has undeniably crafted a soulful instant classic of a rock record.

    'PowerNerd' is available as a Limited 2CD+Blu-ray Artbook (incl. bonus tracks, Dolby Atmos & High-Resolution Stereo Mixes), Ltd 2CD Digipak in O-Card (incl. bonus tracks), Standard CD Jewelcase & Gatefold 180g LP + LP-booklet, as well as digitally in stereo & Dolby Atmos.
