Following last Saturday’s surprise performance, there was speculation that STRAPPING YOUNG LAD were actually preparing for a reunion. However, according to guitarist/vocalist Devin Townsend, they have no plans to get back together.
He states:
I realize playing the 2 syl songs withย Jedย will lead to a ton of questions. Iโm prepared for that, and have no desire to reform SYL. Playing them was closure for me, and I loveย Jed. I love Strapping, but havenโt the same connection with the stuff. It was a one off.
And finallyโฆ no. I will not be playing SYL covers at future shows. Retinal was meant as a statement I suppose.
