And as always, singer/guitarist Devin Townsend had some hilarious comments to make, this time regarding their upcoming slot in Ozzfest: “We were very inspired with the idea of doing Ozzfest, and the concept we are running with on this record is really based around abhorring the current music scene, yet being a part of it in some weird way… We intend to sprinkle a little ugly around all the pretty bands this year. You can think of us as the proverbial pubic hair in the cheesecake of this year’s festival. We are ugly, large and angry.” Drummer Gene Hoglan went on to add “I’m sure we’ll be going on at 9:00 a.m. in front of 35 people.”
