Singled Out: Allegaeon's Dyson Sphere
. Well our latest single Dyson Sphere is one of those tunes that you hate yourself for writing. You hate yourself because you have to turn around and play it live. This song went through so many different variations before this version came to pass, and this is by far the best one. I'm obsessed with Devin Townsend, and all things Devin Townsend. This song was me basically trying to write a song like Almost Again from Strapping Young Lad. That song blows my frickin' mind!! What I love most about it is the constant guitar motion, it feels like it never stops, a musical journey that just keeps getting more and more intense. Well my original version of Dyson Sphere kinda had that vibe, of never stopping. The only problem I foresaw was how the hell are we going to put vocals over it? A lot of people heard the demo and said "just make it an instrumental". Anyway I straightened what I imagined to e the verse out, and then it had some semblance of being an Allegaeon tune. After that in the studio we slowed it down and made it a little bit more groovy, my original idea was that it was blasting right out of the gate. This turned out to be one of my favorite songs on the album, and definitely one of the more groovy ones. Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
