Please don't talk about your sexuality unless it serves the ~narrative~!

I honestly haven't listened to a whole lot of Devin's stuff, but I am absolutely in love with this video. It's Deadhead, but I love the video. He'd get the gold in the mean muggin' Olympics for sure, I love it. And that skullet is so brutal.

But I have a question. Which album has songs similar to this? Like that kind of ambient wall of noise music in that video. Basically what I'm asking is an album recommendation.

I'm equally a huge fan of his 'Wall of Sound' style of music, and my favorite albums are Addicted and Ziltoid. In fact, my favorite songs on Addicted are the title track, supercrush and hyperdrive, but I prefer the Ziltoid version of hyperdrive.

Ocean machine can feel a little lighter (relatively), as well as Accelerated Evolution and Terria, so I'd say this: Listen to Seventh Wave (Ocean machine), Supercrush (or Addicted) and if you like the former, go with Accelerated Evolution/Ocean machine/Terria. If you prefer supercrush, go with Ziltoid and Addicted.


edit - Bonus points for Ziltoid being A Perfect Album.

I literally was listening to Awake when I wrote that. Well, that and Numbered. I just thought the other two drew a finer line for what Clustard was looking for. I honestly like the entire album, except maybe the way home or ih-ah is a little weak.
