Now that Devy has wrapped up his four part series, and you've been given some time to listen to these albums, what do you all think? Which one is your favorite?

I think I'm going to have to go for Addicted. It's really poppy, sure, but it's really unique in that sense. There are some downright beautiful parts in the album, and Anneke Van Giersbergen was a perfect voice as a guest.

What do you all think?
Lost respect for these archives when I saw Creed added, among other bands. Not going to be foruming here anymore. You can keep my reviews if you want.

Haven't heard Ki and Addicted, so no vote. Deconstruction is my favorite from the latest two.

I don't own Deconstruction yet, but will probably get it soon.  Ki may be my favorite of the rest, but I won't vote for now.

I've only heard Deconstruction and Ghost once, and neither of them made any impression on me. Ki and Addicted on the other hand are great, went with the former.

Deconstruction!  By a considerable margin.  After that:

2. Ghost
3. Addicted!
4. Ki (all though Ki has some AWESOME singles in there, a lot of it tends to be filler for me).

Deconstruction.

Addicted is a nice second.

Haven't heard the first two albums so I won't vote. Out of the newer pair Deconstruction impressed me a lot more than Ghost did, since when Deconstruction gets going it really delivers the good, whereas Ghost is beautifully crafted, but way too drawn for my tastes for an album in that sort of vein (leaves me with little anticipation for Ghost 2).

Well, Ghost 2 is just going to be all of the music that was "too dark" (judged by Devy, of course) to go on Ghost 1.  I usually lean on liking darker music so I'm still excited for it.

I agree.  Ghost was good, but a darker version of it seems like it may be more interesting.

I've only heard the two most recent ones, but I really need to get the other two.
