honestly this doesn't remind me of any of their other music, which is impressive considering how dynamic they are. the 30 second to mars comparison is just stupid, don't be a queer

this song sounds like nothing on snw. that record sounds like it's being dragged through the mud forcefully.

this sounds crispy like diamond eyes.

my thoughts exactly. but even crisper than DE. DE songs dont have that pop and spring that this song has. Not one of them if anything Beauty School

While this could be entirely wrong, you've got to hypothesize that "Tempest" is going to be much softer/more accessible after the band has released such an aggressive song in "Leathers", right?

Of course, this is useless speculation, but humor me.

Maybe not, remember Rocket skates / Diamond eyes?

Right. Can't argue with that. Either way, if it's along the lines of quality that "Leathers" is, then I can imagine all of us will be happy, happy campers.

amem!

No doubt about it though, it's a great song. Grows on me the more I listen to it.

missing Chi's touch anyway

I like Leathers a lot. Love the single artwork too. Listened probably over 30 times now with good JVC HA-FX101 in-ear headphones (sick, clear bass!!). Omg it is so heavy and the vocals are good. Not corny at all and good chorus IMO.

I love that second of guitar feedback right between the intro and the first vocals/music. It's like "get prepared" an instant before it blows up hahaha.

Can't wait for this album...

Wonder how he'll do with songs like this live- with the pitches the vocals reach. He better start losing weight again! lmao

really good song

im going to make a guarantee right here right now. KNY will teabag 2010's Diamond Eyes. I will not be wrong. if i am then ill eat crow 11/13 but you can take that to the bank

DE is a classic for me. One of my fav' tones albums. We'll see...

Wow.
In whole, to me, it sounds like something new for them again while sounding completely like Deftones. Just as Stef said. Which is what I've come to know over time I guess, and still I'm completely blown away every single time. Love this band.

Franks effects in the verses remind me of old computer game sounds.

This song is perfect to be the opening song in a concert.

Love it. I didn't expect to be this heavy when i first heard the intro.

it's sad how you, among others, are a slave to your fanboidom to make an honest assessment.

i suppose we should all be drones and believe this song is the most original and unique musical composition in human history.

Feathers. Pretty damn good.

Same here, I expected a soft but dark sound. While soft dark songs are awesome, I'm very happy with what they've created with this song.

Also, have to say I didnt care much for the lyrics, they seemed too simple, and also the way they're sung reminded me quite a bit of Royal (one word at a time or whatever), but even that's grown on me.

Hey blondie, i didnt say this song was the most original thing on earth. I said compared to other deftones work, it is unique. Don't try to twist my words or take things out of context

didn't like it the intro was very nice but after chino kicked in it went downhill, specially in the chorus way way commercial. i know they're a commercial band but they maintained their own unique sound, this just sounds like everything else that's out there.

7/10, I will be having sex to it tonight ,It will be on replay to I bust a nut.yeee

Maybe it's not the most original sounding thing ever, but because it's Deftones doing it, it sounds better than anything else halfway similar. That is, if you're a fan of the band....

Sounds a bit like an Evanescence song.
