The ever-prolific Devin Townsend is at it again. Instead of just releasing his autobiography that he's been talking about releasing, now it looks like there's going be an acoustic EP to accompany the book! According to Townsend's Twitter, the EP will be six or seven songs.
So the autobiography I've been working on comes with an acoustic e.p I'm going to record… 6 or 7 songs, any requests?

…and in a strange twist of fate, I have a 2 days stopover in Iceland on the way back from editing the RAH dvd in the UK…

…so I'm looking for a cool place to record it in Iceland. Maybe outside, weather permitting. I hear its pretty cool there =)

That first tweet makes it sound like maybe it's going to be an acoustic cover song EP? The only reason I'm thinking that is because he's taking requests, and considering we're not psychic and can't request songs that don't exist yet, they'd almost have to be covers. That or it'll be a half-and-half split of covers and new stuff? Townsend has done covers of his own stuff before, so we'll see!
