Smile Devin Townsend / Opeth material

Hello,

I have noticed a distinct absence of some of the more 'mainstream' prog-metal bands here - which is a good thing as I can't stand most of them - however, two artists I believe would be good for inclusion into this wee channel are:

Devin Townsend - Brilliant production, stylistically 'prog-metal crossed with ambience' in nature - would, for the most part sit well with those who aren't big prog-metallers as his material, whilst having some metal guitar, does incorperate alot of other styles into his music

Opeth - Opeth are a prog band with guitarists who mix classical electric guitar playing with metal styles and death metal vocals, thus most of their materials would be unsuitable for here ACCEPT their album deliverence, which is a prog (in the older vein of the word) album (ie mellotron usage etc....) - of which one of the tracks was composed by none other than Steven Wilson....

I have 4 Devin Townsend albums that would be, I believe, suitable for this station and the Opeth album Delieverance - how would one get these on the station????

Ciao
Michael
