"I’ve got other kids around me now like, my sister’s kids and my neighbour’s kids and they became really interested in Ziltoid and started giving me ideas for the story. So Z² ended up being like a story for kids, just with really savage music, orchestras, choirs and all that stuff. I started thinking about “Who am I trying to reach with this record?”
The music is easy for me to write but conceptually what do I want to do? I decided I was going to make it a Fifties Sci-Fi Radio show, make it something that 12-year-old kids can get into, but also 45year old dudes can appreciate as well. It’s a real success for me, but man, if anything was going to break me it was that.”- Devin Townsend
