Graphic nature - Digital bath ;-)

I know they recorded in analog. Doesn't feel computerized. Kinda has a  Foo Fighters (Wasting Light Album) mix to it. Less  quantize. feels real.

i love the experimental stuff they do on it to.. DE was so regular, in hindsight.. this album is so much more unorthodox.. maybe the most experimental they've ever been...

Goon Squad
the worst part is Chinos looping inhale cat scream. What were they thinking? 3/5

I can't stop laughing....

I love how Stephen's riff "stumbles" at the very end of Poltergeist.

2nd half of the 2nd verse of poltergeist... the guitar.. it's insane...

Stef's guitar sounds badass in this album compared to DE! so crunchy!!

it really shows how hyped KNY is haha

I can't believe ppl are finding this album boring...you cannot be a deftones fan if u cannot allow them their natural maturation and progression into a sound THEY want...always been a fan and each album blows me away...if u want to hear the same thing over and over i suggest u listen to black metal or thrash metal or sum pseudo 'hardcore' genre...it's amazing how many ppl want to hear more adrenaline and around the fur for the sake of heaviness/screaming vocals...time to grow up man.. deftones did

Did anyone else spontaneously jizz to Rosemary's outro, Goon Squad intro interlude thingy!?

That part doesn't make sense.  I don't really think it sounds good.

I know what youre trying to say, but, since when is passion about aggressive style music tied to maturity?  I love all styles that deftones have brought to the table thus far.
I have been a fan since Adrenaline and appreciate the uniqueness of each album that has followed.  I personally love KNY, but I find it perfectly reasonable that people can find this album boring.  Just because people fell in love with their previous material and consider them self a fan, doesnt mean they are obligated to love everything deftones do going forward.  To each their own.

nobody said they wanted to hear more Adrenaline or Around The Fur (at least on this thread). it's cool if you disagree with someone else but don't make assumptions and generalizations :/

u can't call it boring... it's so diverse!

It has nothing to do with not wanting them to progress, for me. I don't want to hear a carbon copy of another album, despite loving Adrenaline - SNW. I think their new material has potential, but the execution is lacking--that is what makes it boring. What makes it even more boring is that quite a number of the songs on this sound like songs we've heard before, from them and from others. I feel as though they're not doing what they want anymore, instead trying to appeal to a wider audience. I just don't see any real passion behind what they do.

My feelings toward the album also have little to do with wanting to hear heaviness/screaming vocals. I would just like variation in the vocals and the songs themselves. I want to hear some raw fucking emotion.

If u don't feel any raw emotion on the album you may want to go to the ER and get checked for a pulse.
