Devin Townsend may have just broken the hearts of more than a few Strapping Young Lad fans. Speaking through Twitter, he stated that his recent live performance of some of the bands material was merely a “one off”.
Some tweets from him on the subject can be read below:
“I realize playing the 2 syl songs with Jed will lead to a ton of questions. I’m prepared for that, and have no desire to reform SYL. Playing them was closure for me, and I love Jed. I love Strapping, but haven’t the same connection with the stuff. It was a one off. ”
“And finally… no. I will not be playing SYL covers at future shows. Retinal was meant as a statement I suppose. #ballsout”
