Devin Townsend - To Release 'Sky Blue' And 'Dark Matters' Separately
Devin Townsend released the double album, Z², in late 2014 and will now issue each part, Sky Blue and Dark Matters, in their own separate packages this summer on June 29th, via Inside Out Music, in case you are interested. Devin also recently completed a European headline tour, capping it off with a sold-out show at London's legendary Royal Albert Hall venue.

Written by Diverge on 05.06.2015 at 16:56 Yeah I meant more like complaining that they can't attribute a proper vote here on MS since one album is much better than the other =p

Yeah, I've come to appreciate Sky Blue much, much more. It feels more like a culmination of his life's solo works rather than just a continuation of Epicloud the more I listen to it. Dark Matters only has a couple of good songs, and works more when listened to as a whole. I might definitely consider Sky Blue.

Sky Blue is really great. Dark Matters is fine, but not one of his best. And it's probably a cash grab, but screw it, Devin's earned the right to reap the rewards of his endeavors

I never bought the original release, so this will gives me a good opportunity, and one I'm likely to take. Mainly for Sky Blue.

Sky Blue is definitely the better album, although Dark Matters without the narration is great.
