Devin Garrett Townsend<\/strong> (born May 5, 1972) is a Canadian singer, songwriter, musician, and record producer. He founded extreme metal<\/a> band Strapping Young Lad<\/a> and was its primary songwriter, vocalist, and guitarist from 1994 to 2007. He has also had an extensive solo career and has released a total of 28 albums across all of his projects as of 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After performing in a number of heavy metal<\/a> bands in high school, Townsend was discovered in 1993 by a record label who asked him to perform lead vocals on Steve Vai<\/a>‘s album Sex & Religion<\/a><\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After recording and touring with Vai, he was discouraged by what he found in the music industry and vented his anger on his 1995 solo album Heavy as a Really Heavy Thing<\/a><\/em>, which he released under the pseudonym Strapping Young Lad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He soon assembled a band of the same name, with whom he released the critically acclaimed album City<\/a><\/em> in 1997. Since then, he has released three more studio albums with Strapping Young Lad, along with solo material released under his own independent HevyDevy Records label.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n
