cut out "attack of the" and put "deftones" there insted and we got the cover for the single

This is no exaggeration, but I think the verse riff for Finger of Death is my all time favourite riff. I just can't describe the feeling I get when I hear it. It's awesome. Plus it's fuckin' fun to play..

the song doesn't really call for lyrics and studio treatment IMHO. i like alot of those demos just how they are, i can see why some weren't used, they're better as just music. sometimes lyrics just don't fit certain songs even if they're good. just depends on the singer and if his mind can open up with melodies, or if he just likes the music, but can't force any ideas vocally

but crenshaw was finished in 97

im sure you've heard the crenshaw live track called crenshaw's punch in around 98-99... its a little bit faster and is way more aggressive, chino screams his lungs out. i always concidered that version the atf version... but then with all this white pony "nu metal is so big now, we rather take left and slow down and be different"-times-,they re-recorded a more calm version because thats who they were at the time. the b-side single version of crenshaw put out in 2000 would be totally out of place at atf but would fit on wp.that cant be a coincidence

Indeed, it's one of their best and they know it.

If they never make it work, at least they loved it enough to play live and record. I don't see why it couldn't work or why it wouldn't be on Eros. They made You've Seen The Butcher work..

well mascara had no screams and was maybe more mellow than crenshaw. i'm pretty sure it was recorded and finished with ATF, it's the last song they wrote. according to what Abe said about it in the booklet for bsides

yeah but im talking about the production,mascara got a heavier sound,which all atf songs have.

i think they wrote it like an aggro song in 97, played it live aggro in 98-99 and then released it as a soft version so it would fit the white pony era.

you think they wrote it soft in 97, played it aggro live in 98-99 and then released the soft version again.. very flip floppish. but hey, who knows

Deftones-Finger Of Death.

I really need to learn how to strategize better.

dictatesofreason

yeah and uh buffalo came out on the 06 era numbnuts

Hidalgo

i would say "ask them" to settle it, but they don't remember shit. not even how many albums they have. they're not diehards for themselves that's for sure, at least not with remembering stuff

jesusinabowlofdirt

yea i knew it was 04. snw took them forever to make. they started on it in early 04 i believe, then went to malibu where inubus recorded morning view mid 04, then ezrin late 04 then Chino bailed to do team sleep all 05 pretty much then finally finished his vocals mid 06. by far the longest it took them to make an album. a nightmare getting it done

jesusinabowlofdirt

yeah and a nightmare listening to it too

not for me, riviere rules

i don't see how a deftones fan that likes wp and st can flat out hate snw. it's not that much different than those album really. i like the guitars on snw, they're a tad more complex

jesusinabowlofdirt

is it buffalo, like the animal or buffalo as in the location, "buffalo,new york" i think they mean the location, like "korea" but i dont know
