Best Deadmau5 Albums
Every song on this album is amazing. My personal favorites are FML, Ghosts 'n' Stuff, and Strobe, but as I said before, every song on For Lack of a Better Name is awesome and unbelievably catchy. People, let's get this to the top!
EDIT: Finally, it's made it to #1! It deserves this spot.
I feel that this is his most well-made album. There's a real flow to it. None of the songs feel out of place, and the quality is fantastic.
Comes in second place after Random Album Title. It has really good songs like Strobe.
While (1<2) almost got my vote, but I decided that Random Album Title just has a better feel to it - a feel of isolation, but in a good way.
I find it best to listen to RAT when I feel stressed out or after a long, hard day. It just makes me feel isolated from all my troubles. Almost every Deadmau5 album makes me feel good, but this one makes me feel the best. While is much darker, but I still like it very much. Overall, RAT is Joel's masterpiece.
Everybody is voting for For Lack of a Better Name just because it has Strobe. Strobe is good, I get it, but there are better songs, such as Alone With You, I Remember, Faxing Berlin, and so much more!
At the moment, this is my favorite. His ambient stuff is his best by far. The second disc is a serious grower! It has so many beautiful songs: some uplifting and happy, some sad and melancholic.
Also, so many genres are covered in this album, such as electro house, ambient house, piano music, industrial rock, and whatever genre Silent Picture is. But yes, it's an incredible piece of music that you should all check out. You have to have a taste for piano music, though.
This 25-track masterpiece is definitely my personal favorite. Not only do his "progressive house" tracks sound more interesting than usual, but there are also a lot of fascinating I.D.M. tracks here, along with many great piano melodies. It deserves to be my No. 1 pick for sure.
There's not a song on this album that I don't love. This is the album that made me start paying attention to deadmau5.
I love this album so much that I bought the CD too. It sounds amazing and holds up several years later. Much love!
This one is my favorite. I liked almost every song on it.
It's one of his best. I underestimated it. I thought it would be a really boring album based on the song names, but I was wrong. This is like his best album. In my opinion, it's a great comeback after 4x4=12. I know, I probably just made a million people mad.
This album honestly has some of the best music Joel has ever created while exploring new sides of his style.
This is some very solid electronic music. It's definitely one of my favorites by him. It showed the world that Deadmau5 was going to be amazing.
Unlike Joel's other albums, it feels squishy (if that's the right way to describe it) and has more emotion. I love The Oshawa Connection, Waking Up From the American Dream, 8bit, and one of my favorite Deadmau5 songs, Edit Your Friends.
Deadmau5's newest album contains some of his more experimental tracks, and it works beautifully. From house masterpieces like 4ware to funky '80s vibes in Cat Thruster, this album really has it all.
Although the flow is a bit confusing and may seem out of place at times, almost all the tracks are worth a listen.
While I think it's an enjoyable album, it feels unfinished. Joel just kind of threw it together and dropped it for money. Even he agrees that it is one of his weaker releases. There's nothing inherently bad about it, but deadmau5 has way better albums to offer.
The Newcomers
In my opinion, this is his best work because it sounds very different from the songs on his other albums.
