Wow. Just... wow. I LOVED that.... The tones, the vocals, the song structure. I suddenly hear where Textures get some of their inspiration BRB, buying a bunch of Devin CDs.

One of my favorite vocalist of recent memory, aside from Russel Allen (who is on another stratosphere) is Christian Älvestam from Scary Symmetry (no longer a member of the band).
