Devin Townsend - Autobiography Coming In August


Only Half There is the title of Canadian musical genius Devin Townsend's autobiography. The book details have been fully revealed now and his official autobiography is now available for pre-order here via Rocket 88. The book comes out in August 2016 in a standard and a limited edition with the latter including loads of exclusive goodies.

Book description: "Canadian musician, artist and producer Devin Townsend's honest and hugely entertaining autobiography tells the story of his life so far. It traces his beginnings in British Columbia growing up hearing a wealth of music, continues through his rapid rise to professional status, touring and recording with Steve Vai and developing his career with Strapping Young Lad and Devin Townsend. More than just an honest and intimate autobiography though, Only Half There is also a brutally honest expression of his life as a working, touring and recording artist, a husband, father and bi-polar artist."






The Classic edition comes with a CD of newly recorded music titled "Iceland" and includes previously unseen photos from Devin's scrapbooks. The Signature version is the same book but signed by Devin, wrapped in a different jacket material and nestling in a numbered, limited-edition box. Also in the box are a signed cassette tape of previously unreleased demo recordings titled "Ancient" and four unique, small prints of cartoons drawn by Devin.

Hoping for an audio book version too, preferably read by Devin. That would be great.

Should this acoustic EP that comes along be added to the discography database? Or does it count as remastered material?

Where it says about EP?

Then again, it depends. We don't add re-releases or remastered versions.

In the last paragraph, after the image. It does say "newly recorded music named Iceland" but it is actually acoustic version of existing songs.
But I don't know if you can call acoustic version a remastering or not
