I am totally loving Addicted, probably more than Ki. I love Ki also, but Addicted is outstanding.

I think though that I will appreciate Ki most of all in the context of the full 4 album odyssey.

It's all down to personal taste really. I really, really like Ki, but I much prefer Addicted.

My favourite aspect of Devin's music is the huge multilayered sound, with loads of harmonies, especially vocal harmonies, catchy songs with a bit of heaviness to them. So while I like both, Addicted is more my sort of thing than Ki.
While I do like the more subtle and quite elements of Ki, my absolute favourite part of the album is obviously the big massive layered bit at the end of the title track.

I did pretty much that not long after the record came out XD It worked perfectly

I don't own Ki, but I've listened to it a few times.
I like Addicted more because it puts me in a good mood and motivates me to do things.
Ki makes me think more, and though that isn't a bad thing, it's not what I prefer.

Of what I've heard of Addicted, it's less emotional than Ki. Ki does more to me in terms of connecting with the music, but Addicted is going to rock my socks when the preorder arrives.

So far I've connected far more with Ki, and it's surprised/impressed me more than Addicted.

Addicted was at first not really grabbing me, but I'm warming up to it. It still feels a little too straightforward, but I'm trying to appreciate it for what it is. I just feel like it won't have the lasting appeal Ki had because of its formulaic/straightforward approach.

Have only just got my copy of Addicted. On first impressions I would guess that Addicted will overtake Ki at some point in my estimations. I LOVE Ki and I love more ambient, thoughtful music, but the high energy stuff is absolutely my first love. Addicted seems intelligent AND powerful, which is the ideal combination in my opinion. Still do love Ki though.
Devin's probably going to have 2 albums in my top 10 of 2009 by the looks....
