Would I be correct in suggesting ...

... that Physicist encapsulates exactly why The Dev is so unique?
I look forward to your thoughts before I explain why I say this.

My thoughts = Why Physicist, particularly?

I was thinking more Infinity. Physicist seems like a rather straightforward metal album imo.

Well my reasoning is that it's the greatest example of how Dev can be both heavy and beautiful at the same time. Not easy to do.
There is a real cocophony of noise, quite heavy and intense yet the melodies that come with it give me goose bumps. It genuinely makes me sit there and think 'Wow, now this is what music is all about'.
I still consider OM the greatest Dev album but Physicist is probably my No.2. Obviously most would say Terria at 2 if not 1.

A Cocophony? DOES THAT MEAN THE SOUND TASTES LIKE CHOCOLATE?

No, that's Cocoaphony, which means it just
sounds like chocolate. Big difference.
A cacophony of cocoa would be really
loud chocolate.
A cocophony, or "cock-o-phony" is a pretend penis.
And now this is starting to get ridiculous(ophony).

I think the Physicist album is definitely a unique blend of heavy and beautiful, with equal amounts of both.
A strange sort of cosmic soup, with icicles of shining ambience overspilling from this bizarre pot. This pot is being gently stirred by a cyclops in control of an enormous spaceship. One that destroys planets for fun.
Yep. I think I agree with you Burzum.

I prefer Toblerone. I don't know why. That, or Ritter Sport.

Hey, you get my vote for best avatar. Micallef hoorah! And I wouldn't lean toward Physicist as the best example of Dev at all. But that's just my half-arsed, sunday-morning opinion. Mmmm... Cocoaphony Pops for breakfast.

Physicist = amazingly ordinary album by amazingly genius composer.

Ordinary? Surely you jest? If you want ordinary look no further than AE.
Physicist is massive, truly incredible and quite unique.
Oh, and it has Planet Rain. All good.
Hmmm - think I might stick it on again now actually and drink some coco. Listening to Synchestra over the weekend has got me back in a Dev mood.
