What are your feelings about ( sorry: aboot) this ?


yep, i'd say its yellow-ish/golden, also with some green here and there. i love that connection of albums and colors devin makes up, as they all fit perfectly. except physicist, which i'd say is rather shimmering, maybe silver or platinum-colored but not gray. but what ever, he's the synesthesist.

as for the happiness of synchestra: the beginning is totally happy happy spring day, and those darker parts in the second half are ... say... serious but not dark or negative. especially pixillate is uplifting in a deep, serious way, like when something positively immense happens (meeting a whale, beatiful majestic clouds when the sun comes out after the storm, being in love, stuff like that)

all of devin's music touches a spiritual/religious dimension, and i think synchestra is the strongest in that. there's so much joyful "oh yeah, just like that!" going on in my mind while listening to it, it's enlightening in a way.
again, thanks devin!

I'd say Infinity has the medal for being religious and symbolic, but Synchestra gets an honorable mention. As far as colors go, thats what my topic was sort of aboot. Terria and Synchestra are the same colors to me, but Synchestra has lighter colors than Terria. It may not be the happiest album to live, but it has way more glow than Terria.
