Synchestra

[Procella]

I got it yesterday :hotjump: and it's great :hotjump:

 

[Raven_1959]

I've only heard Gaia atm, but I've seen nothing but praise for the album. If I find it, I'll probably buy it.

 

[:Wreath:]

It's cool, maybe not genious but definitly worth some thorough listening...

 

[The Evil Toucan]

It's good, but I don't think it's as good as any of his others besides physicist.

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

I downloaded one song of Physicist, and it had awful production. Was that just the song I got, or is the whole album like that?

 

[all_sins_undone]

It's a good album, but fuck you Toucan.

 

[The Evil Toucan]

It's a good album, but fuck you Toucan.

 

[Deliverancer]

what a splendid album... devin is a genious

my fav tracks out of it are "Triumph" and "vampolka+vempira"

 

[FUBAR]

I downloaded one song of Physicist, and it had awful production. Was that just the song I got, or is the whole album like that?

The whole album is like that but its really not that bad...its the only dev album that has that production usually his music sounds huge, chunky and epic.

oh yeah check this http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=226518

Physicist is a brilliant album - certainly superior to Accelerated Evolution which lacked an epic like Planet Rain and was too poppy for my liking.

Ocean Machine still rules the roost.

Anyway, I downloaded Synchestra yesterday but haven't listened to it yet due to lack of time. I'll buy the album:

a) when I get paid next week, and
b) when I find a copy with the DVD attached

I'm sure it will be a step up from the previous effort.

 

[Dark_Karma]

Anyone else notice the mis-spell of Mikael's name in the booklet? A common mistake. :Smug:

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

while physicist is a good album the production is really annoying...

 

[CAIRATH]

Devin once said he would like to remaster it sometime but I don't know if he ever will. Personally I don't mind the production really. It sounds like SYL-lite, which if you like SYL isn't really a bad thing.

As for Synchestra, still haven't gotten it. I haven't been in a Deviny mood lately. I hope it'll be better than Accelerated Evolution. That wasn't bad, but it doesn't live up to his old albums and the last track is too emo sounding for my taste.

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

The last track made me think of Bon Jovi fused with Westlife

But I fucking love it, which is well wrong

 

[Stimuli]

I think it is easily a contender for album of the year... so much great stuff on the album that appeals to so many different styles...insane musicianship and even better songwriting...

 

[FUBAR]

I have you noticed the layers aswell, devy has feckin stocked this album full of layers.

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

production on physicist is fine. the mixing isnt that great, though.

that and infinity are his best albums. ocean machine and terria arent far behind.

the new one is good, very good, but nothing like his older work. he needs to be fucked up again so he can write crazy shit.

 

[Procella]

I hope it'll be better than Accelerated Evolution.

It is.
