If you are big on the 60-80s era of prog rock (Pink Floyd, King Crimson) and 90s prog metal (Tool, Dream Theater), then there is a big chance you'll be a sucker for Terria. Terria is an all around amazing progressive album, minus a few small flaws, one of which is that certain guitar solos are too quiet to fully appreciate. The other flaw is Devin's lyrics, sometimes being a little too silly to actually take seriously. Devin was never known solely for his lyric writing skills, but this release is probably his worst offence. Otherwise, a practically perfect album that started the new millennium with a rather significant bang.
My personal favourite Devin Townsend album. It works so brilliantly as a single piece, the tracks are so well placed, and hence the mood throughout is truly captivating. A masterpiece.
