In an articale in classic rock presents prog Devin says he listens to country because if he listens to something closer to his own genre he'll start analysing it.

Well, the Metal he listens to is certainly awesome! Yeah, really interesting guy. One of those musician I hope to have the chance of meeting someday in person. He's got some pretty eclectic influences and inspiration to say the least - Ghost was definitely a transition.

I was thinking the exact thing when I read it. Honestly, I think that he is missing out on a looooot of really good metal that isn't quite as heavy as Gojira or Opeth... I can't see myself ever not at least checking out other music within the genre of music that I actually write. Ha

Apparently Ihsahn doesn't listen to metal anymore either. They could listen exclusively to show tunes as long as they keep pumping out high quality music as they have been.

I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

Maybe he doesn't listen to metal now, but he must have been some kind of fan when he was younger.

Taken from a interview held by Yann in april 2009 for the french website "aux portes du métal" : Yann : "You're a Frank Zappa fan. You like creative things. What do you think of the creativity of new metal artists ? What are you listening these times ? Devin : I love bands like Opeth, Gojira, Messhugah, they're very creative, brilliant. But honestly, I never listen to it, never. Because it's too heavy. I listen to a lot of new age music, like the french band Air, Enya, Paul Horn, then again Stravinski. I love dance music, I love that. The only metal song I remember recently was the second song from "From Mars To Sirius" by Gojira. That's the only song I remember that made me bang my head. I really respect Messhugah, I really respect Opeth but I don't listen to much metal. I listen to music for production, I listen to Nickelback for production and the mix (I don't like the music !), I listen to classical music, I listen to the Young Gods. When I first listened to "Second Nature" by the Young Gods, it didn't affect me at all, it's so minimal. But after a while, I loved it. "
