I don't think I've enjoyed an album as much as I enjoyed Ocean machine when I first got it.

depends on my mood. accelerated evolution if i want to relive the old days when i discovered dev's solo stuff, infinity if i'm feeling philosophical or crazy, ocean machine if i want to chill, terria if i want to superchill or nap

but

don't make me choose just one, i beg you

I feel like this topic exists in a billion places, but I still have to say Ocean Machine. I do have a related to the artwork tattoo after all.

I went with Ziltoid. It's hard to choose though, everything he does is gold.

Well, you can either pick a best album in this topic or arrange all albums in this one. I'm afraid I can't do either, depends too much on my mood. AE and Addicted appear to be my hard-rocking albums, Synchestra as a feel-good album, OM, Terria and Ki as chill-trips (in different degrees), Infinity as a mindfuck, Fizzy and Zilly as more or less balls-to-the-wall. I don't have The Hummer (yet), and Devlab freaked me out when I listened to it so I guess that's for very rare occasions only. :)

tl;dr: I can't decide.

I said Terria mainly due to the fact that it's Devin's most diverse work to date.

In order (favorite to least favorite....Not a single weak album IMO. I can listen to any of these all the way through without ever wanting to skip a track)

Terria
Accelerated Evolution
Ocean Machine
Infinity
Ki
Ziltoid
Synchestra
Physicist

I'll wait till I have Addicted in my hands (hopefully it will be in my mailbox tomorrow) to put it in my list.

Well, I clicked Ocean Machine but lately it has been...can you guess....Addicted (what a shocker). But I have to agree that this is greatly question of one's state of mind.
