HEVYDEVY FORUMS

i've heard the insect on the infinity cd referred to as the infinity butterfly, but is it really a butterfly or a moth?
The fact that in soul driven there is mention of a moth would lead one to believe that the insect on the album is a moth and not a butterfly. I'm talking about the "sing maute dingas" part.
i know this is a stupid and pointless question but i'm really bored and was just listening to soul driven so it got me wondering.

well that's a butterfly because each wing comes in two parts.

Help you any?

I dont know what it actually is but as far as I understood it is supposed to be a moth.

it's supposed to be a moth? Well, you never stop learning...

The HDR store says Butterfly...........

I always figured Butterfly, but I could see it going the other way too.

You're arguing with the guitarist of the DTB? I remember one time somebody criticized "Alien" when Gene was around and Gene was, uh, blunt. Something tells me Brian will be nicer about it. But, still. I'd take Brian's word for it.

Yes, yes...I remember the "Alien discussion" (not mentioning any names... ).

Suffice to say (adopts David Bellamy voice) that this wittle cweature is a perfect specimen of the order Lepidoptera and should be worshipped in naked wituals awound campfires at midnight.



Sorry, I have the flu...




MAUTÉ DINGAS!!

Man, I hope I never meet such a big fucking moth...
It could eat your entire sleeve of your shirt in one sitting.

Pictures like the one posted by Lars always come to my head when listening to such a beautiful piece of music as Infinity

ALL HAIL THE NEW MOTHS!

All right who doubts me!! I dont actually know for a fact that it is a moth but I do remember him saying something about a big ass moth he encountered in Australia. And he has a moth on one of his guitars I know this cause I asked him why he had a butterfly on his guitar and he replied no dude its a moth. We are starting to record the new stuff today so I will ask him and clear this all up.

Damn right! It'd take more'n a Patriot missile to knock an AUSSIE moth outta the sky!



Fuckers have been known to carry off small children...

Sorry about ignoring the rest of your post - but... I want this album so bad

If I was a moth, I'd fly into the studio and watch you guys now.

See? There you go. Beavis is on the case.

And, I just want to take a moment to point out that I doubt there are many other musicians or bands who would actually do this. I mean, here they are getting together to start recording the new album and here's Brian going, "Okay, so we've got all these songs to do, but before we start... Devin, some of the fans were digging into the vast minutia of your creative output and we were wondering, is that a moth or a butterfly on the cover of Infinity?"

Come on now! Everybody has to buy two copies of Synchestra from HDR direct, one for themselves and one as a gift. We owe it to these guys! It's rediculous how open and kind they are!
