The place to speak about Dev's current projects, and everything yet to come

I think I'll have to have a proper Devin listening session again to know what my current stance is with all the albums, but just based on instinct, I feel like Ocean Machine is my favourite and almost everything else is equally good.

Though, one slightly controversial opinion I have is that Synchestra is the worst of his proper albums. Like, the only albums I put below it are Cooked on Phonics, Devlab and The Hummer. And Devlab and The Hummer I don't even really count, cause I don't have them/have only listened to small parts and gone "ok, right".

This is probably the most difficult thing I've ever been asked. Hmmmm.

1. Deconstruction
2. Synchestra
3. Infinity

As far as listens go, it's probably something like this:

1. Decontruction
2. Epicloud
3. Alien

Terria is hands down his best album, and one of the best albums ever.
City is excellent and has some of his best and most emotional singing (the middle of Detox, and Spirituality. The opening scream of All Hail... is amazing)

Past that, I don't really know. OM is good, Ziltoid is good, Infinity is good, and Physicist is good. Ki, Decon, and Accelerated Evolution are solid. Synchestra has never done anything for me.

Hands down Ocean Machine first.

After that... God. This is hard. On the right (wrong?) days, City. Any other time Ghost.

Third would have to be... Uh... Can I come back to this? I never really liked Terria as much as his other stuff (though still fucking love it). I guess I'd probably have to say next is Ki. Infinity and the Christeen EP are up there too... Fuck, too hard! Can I just say Contain Us? xD

Evidently!! I like heavy/aggressive metal on occasion but I never really turn to Devin for it. I listen to Dev for power and cathcy-as-f**k-melody and would've thought other fans would be the same - just kinda surprising it's so liked. Maybe it's that Dev's fanbase are more metal than I thought or maybe I'm underestimating the album's quality. I always felt Devin was somewhat insincere about it, similar to the SYL and Alien albums.

Deconstruction is his 'flawed masterpiece' IMO, if that makes any sense. So while has my favorite Dev song - The Mighty Masturbator - it doesn't make my top three...

...which is:

1. Ki
2. Terria
3. Ghost

That's excluding SYL, of course. Honestly though, coming up with three was like splitting hairs; most are so close in terms of quality that it feels criminal to pick favorites. With that said, Ki has been my favorite for a while now... there really aren't words for it. So different from everything else he's ever done, yet it has everything I love about his music in spades.
