Devin Townsend is pulling the plug in the Devin Townsend Project chapter of his career with a final release of their Ocean Machine – Live at the Ancient Roman Theatre Plovdiv live release. This special performance at Ancient Roman Theatre in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, celebrated the 20th anniversary of the landmark Ocean Machine album was performed in full, as well as a set of fan-requested tracks alongside the Orchestra of Plovdiv State Opera. Watch the video below:
Devin commented:
“Hello again folks, dev here again…head above water for a minute from the massive writing period I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to do. Today, im proud that we can release another track from the upcoming ‘Live at the Ancient Theatre’ Performance. This one comes in the form of ‘Regulator’ from the Ocean Machine portion of the set. This DVD is a really important part of my work to date, as it not only summarizes a large portion of my musical output, but also swings right back around to the first true solo album, Ocean Machine, with the original bassist, John Harder, joining me onstage.
When all is said and done, this DVD acts as a powerful swan song for this portion of my career, and I am excited for people to actually get the whole thing into their worlds.
As always, thank you for the ability to do what I do, and I hope you enjoy it 🙂
Devin”

Devin Townsend Project released the much acclaimed ‘Transcendence’ in late 2016, before embarking on one of their biggest world tours ever. This new live release marks the end of an era, as Devin Townsend Project was disbanded in early 2018 to pave the way for Devin to focus on numerous other creative, musical endeavours of which he is currently hard at work on.
