Thank you. Now we can continue to talk about Risk vs Sextape.

Sextape is a better title too!

i read in an interview that they played risk a lot in the studio while recording eros. you know ,the game with dice and shit. maybe its just a working title that got stuck on the record. i like the title but thats probably just because i friggin love the track

Because it is one of their more unmemorable songs. Every time I listen to it I have to think about what song it is. I like Deftones when they get experimental. I feel "Royal" is too predictable.

All the great tracks are getting eliminated. "Diamond Eyes" is great and "976-EVIL" is fucking fantastic. Don't get me started on "Beauty School"!

I don't understand the opinion everyone has on Risk.  Everyone seems to think it's just okay.  I think it's a highlight.  The only song that I don't think fits on the album is You've Seen The Butcher but it's going to make it for at least another round.  Lame.
Title: Re: Diamond Eyes Elimination (Round 5)
Post by: djsoulglo on Jun 05, 2010, 05:12 AM
Risk is the epitome of a Deftones song. I think Sextape sounds the least like them. It's not a terrible song, but not what I think of when I think of Deftones.

Risk is the shit. Sextape def has that Chino Team Sleep feel to it but i really dig it. Played by guitar for atleast an hour to that song when i first heard it on youtube lol

Title: Re: Diamond Eyes Elimination (Round 5)
Post by: pinkmaggit on Jun 06, 2010, 06:00 PM
I voted for sextape but I'm regretting it now honestly.
It's a great track - the guitar intro is beautiful and it definitely gives the album some breathing space.
It does sound like something you would expect to find on a Team Sleep album though.
Of the 2 slow tracks (this and Beauty School) I think Sextape is much better.
The album gets off to such a good start with such an aggressive pace and the Beauty School ruins it a bit for me.
It Beauty School was left out I'd probably appreciate Sextape much more because it would really have more impact after all of the more aggressive tracks.
My biggest critism of Diamond Eyes is that it gets a bit slow and boring and loses its aggressiveness after Rocket Skates.
There should have maybe been another faster track towards the end IMO - I find myself listening to the first half of the album much more than the 2nd.

I don't like royal that much.  I don't hate it, but it's not my favorite.  FOR EXAMPLE, I don't see the song as being equivalently horrible to trying to carry on an intelligent conversation with inkblades, but I would compare it more to watching a Paris Hilton sex tape.  Paris might be annoying, and act like a fish in bed, but you know you should watch it because if you don't, you will have no idea what to say when you walk in on a conversation of losers giving examples as to why they did or did not like the video.  However, then end of Royal is outstanding.  FOR EXAMPLE, I would compare it to the first time I ever smoked a cigarette after cumming in a womans ass.  So as a result, I usually skip the Paris Hilton part, and go straight to the anal sex.  Because that's how I roll.

Was this more acceptable/understandable for you?

cmnd/ctrl. idk if ill be able to pick a least favorite after that ones gone. and really no love for sextape? also if you voted for royal well i think you should be banned because you are not  a deftones fan.

I dont get why ppl are saying that. Deftones are a diverse band, they have a lotta different kinds of songs. Lots of ppl prefer their heavier stuff, lots prefer their softer stuff, and lots of them just love them either way.

I happen to think that Royal is a really boring song. just like Prince, it doesn't stand out in any way. except for the ending, which is pretty damn awesome. but unfortunately it's not enough to carry the rest of the song.

My thoughts exactly.  I guess if I would have said it like that, instead of just stating my opinion, I could have avoided offending the self designated deftones annalist. 

Honesty, I don't really like every time that Chino tries to put a melody into certain songs ( like Royal ).  I think sometimes he tries to be too melodic when he should be more brutal to fit the song better.

I realize I'm a "pink maggit" and I know why now........
Because if i could stand to conversate with half of these angry children with no other lives besides Deftones and being fanboys (which most can't admit) I'd be a "global moderator" or "elite" but I choose to stay a peasant in sharing lungs and keep my opinion to the person it only matters to. Why don't other people try this instead of kissing some dick's ass from overseas and get what you need outta here and not give these guys who look like Chino (in their own way) a chance to have something to do to pass through their boooooooooring lives? You can tell when they get offended by your "opinion". It's pitiful. Peace to all the good peeps here though, sorry - had to let that one rip finally.

It's hilarious that you are talking about keeping your opinion to yourself all the while stating an opinion. As Shade said, this is what people do on a message board. Yes, I perhaps came off as arrogant and harsh but that is just the rapport I have with Variable. If you don't think he can't also be a nasty bugger, go check his track record. I'm not offended by his opinion. I simply, if vehemently, disagree with it and am letting it be known. It sounds like you are more offended that people are *gasp!* arguing on the internet. O Jeebus, anything but that!

Also, you're a "pink maggit" not because you don't choose to argue (even though you are arguing right now) but because you registered here two months ago.

Oh, and just to get you all riled up some more:

You might want to check your sources before you call anyone around here a child.  Also you might try learning how to correspond like an adult before you call someone a child.  I got confused for a second and thought I was reading an essay from a 5th grader instead of a post from such a mature adult on SL. 

Also, who are you to call anybody a fanboy?  You ended that pathetic ( and I truly mean pathetic ) rant with "ROYAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" like a complete and moronic deftones fanboy.  Then one has to look no further than your user name and personal quote to go ahead and confirm the suspicion that you are in fact a fanboy.  You give off all the classic signs and symptoms of a 15 year old loser.  So if that's not true ( even though I'm pretty sure it is ) you have some image reform of your own to do before you become critical of any of us.

Oh, and as previously stated.  This is a message board.  People talk, a lot.  People talk about all kinds of stupid stuff, a lot.  If that bothers you, I would go ahead and just avoid the social networking scene all together. 

But hey, at least you gave me and Inkblades something to agree on.

Damn.  Got em coach.  My online editor let me down and didn't catch my typo :( .  Probably because I was pretty medicated last night.  But good job, after all these post you FINALLY got something on me that was slightly entertaining.

However, the fact still remains as to how strange it is that we haven't talked in years yet you obviously still have your feelings hurt about something I did way back when.  You even started this conversation with "Completely worthless opinion as usual. At least you're consistent, though." As if this was yesterday or last week that I pissed you off.  Probably  because you were trying to hide that you're a giant loser that has been stewing over this for years, waiting for my return in the deftones forum, so that you could finally extract revenge on me for.....what?  Yeah, you're a loser.  You should probably worry about that instead of worrying about me so much.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

By the way, it's not that I have been waiting for you to return to the Deftones forum. It's actually the exact opposite. Your opinions on their music are so amazingly retarded that I was hoping you would stay out of here forever. Your explanations are even more thoroughly moronic (A Paris Hilton metaphor? Really?). You obviously post on SL a lot (You're close to 11,000. I'm at 1,609. Who's really the loser here?) and I wasn't chasing you around in the other forums. I saw your name in here, remembered disagreeing with you (I will admit that I went back in my post history to review. This took me five to ten minutes at the most.) and then proceeded to attack.

I should have responded to this earlier. What you're basically saying is that when Stef is playing a hard metal riff Chino shouldn't be singing over it but instead screaming. Should Chino have screamed on all of ATF? Should he have screamed all over Korea, Street Carp and Battle-Axe? Those are "certain songs" just like Royal. So, what makes them different? That combination of melody and brutality is what makes them Deftones in the first place.

The Paris Hilton metaphor was a joke ( who couldn't have guess that you would be too stupid to realize that ) I was making fun of how over analytical you were/are being.  If I want to state an opinion without an explanation, it's really OK.  Sometimes people  just either do or don't like something for no other reason than they do or don't.  I don't like green beans either, doesn't mean I feel I need to give an explanation every time I go to a restaurant and don't order them. 

And once again, your lack of intellect made you unable to understand what I was saying.  I never said you were chasing me around anywhere.  I hardly ever come into the deftones forum on SL because there is nothing new to talk about.  But since DE came out, I came back to join some fresh conversations.  What I said was that you were waiting for me to come back to the deftones forum, seeing as how I have never seen you posting anywhere else that I usually post.  Then all of the sudden when I come back here, you "attack" as you put it.  Post count aside ( sorry that I have other things to talk about besides other peoples opinions on bands ) that makes you the loser.  And if you think participating in a message board makes someone a loser.......you should probably consider stopping yourself.  Especially when you take 10 min to do a search for post made years ago to try and remember a grudge.....really?

And no sir, you completely ( once again ) missed the point as to what I was trying to say.  Take note of the words "I don't really like every time" and "I think sometimes."  This means that sometimes I think the hard metal riff with chino singing melodically works, and sometimes it doesn't.  In the Case of Royal, I don't think it worked.  I never said anything about an absolute in my statement.  Do you get it now? Or do I have to break it down even more Barney style for you?

We obviously disagree!  Besides, we are debating on who sucks more ( even though its obviously apparent I won before this started )

I'm JK though.  I didn't come in here looking to be aggressive towards anyone.  Inkblades just has some obvious pent up aggression ( probably retrograding from having a little penis and having to change out during gym class in high school ) So I responded.  But hes really boring and has nothing intelligent or funny to say anymore ( besides my typo which I'm taking credit for anyways ) So *yawn* I'm done here anyways.

Not even a little bit.  Maybe Chino needs to come on here and explain in great depth why he used the same word in two different songs.  Otherwise inkblades head might explode if he doesn't get a well thought out explanation.

You're right. You can state an opinion without an explanation. That's EXACTLY why I wrote "I don't need to know." Go back and read the posts. It's right there. However, you felt the need to explain regardless. Why? Probably some kind of *insert dime store junior college psychology bullshit here*

You were posting in the Deftones forum recently before you stated your mongoloid opinion and I wasn't coming in and arguing with you then. It was only when you came into this thread and said something that I disagreed with. Simple as that. You can try to make it into something else all you want but that's what it really boils down to. For the record, I don't think that posting on a message board is loser-ish (I wouldn't post here if I did feel that way.) It may be nerdy, but I am a nerd. My point is that spending five to ten minutes reading an old argument we had on here is no less nerdy than playing the TPAM game or word association or whatever it is you do here.

Uh, "Every time" and "sometimes" are two completely different things. The former means all the time (an absolute) and the latter means only half the time.

Finally, I never said Sextape sounds like Digital Bath. I didn't mean sonically. It's not just that Chino used just the same word twice either. He does that a lot. It's that he sang the same word from DB in an extremely similar fashion on Sextape. High note and everything.
