Yea seriously man, Decon is one of Devy's worst albums

Not enough facepalms in the world.

Anyway, since you guys are so ridiculously gullible, I might as well put your minds at rest.

1. Devin Townsend Project - Deconstruction

This album gave me a headache when I first heard it. This is the only album to actually cause me physical pain because of how good it is. Every single time I listen to it, I feel like I am hearing the greatest piece of music ever created by anyone. I feel like I'm being given the key to the entire universe, and I can just fly around wherever I want. I think the best way I can think of to summarize how I feel about this album is with a picture.

Seriously, can't believe you guys fell for it. After all the praise I've given it. My god.

No. Nobody else can top this list, so no one should even try.

Then why the hell did everyone put them next to their traps??? I have a hard time believing you guys would go to such great lengths to fuck with me.

Because the OP had them in his pictures for some inexplicable reason and we wanted to keep it going.

Fucking great list, a lot of my favs on there. Just spinning Deconstruction for the first time. I'm interested in hearing the record that went straight to number one on your list.

contest_sanity · « **Reply #476 on:** June 25, 2011, 08:33:26 AM »

That's cool. I just thought I remembered you listing RL ahead of TPE in the POS thread, but maybe your rankings have changed, or maybe I'm recalling incorrectly. As personally I prefer RL, I mentally put you in the category of people who agreed with me, but again, perhaps I'm just making things up.

Well, I liked TPE more when I put the list together. Let's just say that.

Wow at the Devin love. I tried to get into him years ago but found most of it just overwhelming or not my cup of tea.

Arch Benemy · « **Reply #488 on:** June 25, 2011, 11:20:33 AM »

Personally I think that Decon is the worst of the DTP albums. It has some great moments but too much of it seems aimless and unnecessarily convoluted. The other 3 though =

Kosmo · « **Reply #489 on:** June 25, 2011, 11:47:38 AM »

I love Addicted, Ghost and Ki but Decon feels a bit lukewarm personally.
