Not content simply with announcing a string of tour dates for 2020, Devin Townsend is already looking to 2021. Townsend has announced via Twitter he's working on the next installment of his career retrospective vinyl box set series Eras, an ultimate edition of his new album Empath, and is planning on hitting the studio for a new record in 2021.
It'll be interesting to see if Townsend tries to out-insane Empath or just goes in a completely new direction as he does.
Just finishing the next Eras box set and the Empath ultimate edition before leaving on this first crazy tour… this year will be exceptionally colourful in terms of live shows in my world. Tons of different things. Looking forward to recording the next album in 2021. Love this.
