not really digging the new Devin song.  I liked ki, addicted (a bit of it), terria, accelerated evolution out of his whole career.  ...he's just a bit ecletic, eccentric, cartoony, funny for me in song.  Well, I do like funny stuff but his weirdnes just takes away...I was never a big fan of his Fear factory, skinlab, meshuggah guitar similarities either.  Alot of his stuff has bored me too.  but those albums above have atmospheric, melodic shit that I can take seriously a bit.  I don't get why everyone thinks he's the greatest thing since string cheese.  I know i said in the deconstruction thread that I would've bought this album if it was out...i still haven't heard the rest of the songs but the main reason why I wanted to get this cd was the lyrics.  Great subject, very interesting.
