dude rocket skates is sick!!!! i think some of yall just nit pick to much.i love all of deftones music !!!! im fucking glad they still make music and still give me the same feeling everytime theres a new record coming.

Agree with you Darksoul - I don't understand the hate SNW and DE is getting on this board.
If people stop comparing them to previos albums and give them a chance in their own right they may enjoy them more. I'm just thankful that Deftones have never released a bad album. I think that all of the albums are great in their own way.
It's funny to me how a lot of people say ''The demos are so cool, much better than anything off SNW or DE''. The demo's are so basic and bare and modt don't even have lyrics - we really have no idea how they'd sound as finished songs. I bet you if there DE demo's recorded people would be raving about how great they are and how everything else sucks. Sorry I just don't see anything special about the Ezrin demo's
Diamond Eyes and Rocket Skates have such sick, heavy riffs -if they were recorded as demo's, people on this site would be raving about them - far better riffs than any of these demos IMO.
In fact I think these were left in their present state for that exact reason, they had much better stuff recorded.

One thing about the Cherry Waves demo is the nice weird intro instrument it has. Instead we got the Freak On A Leash synth on the actual album.

aint no synth on Freak On A Leash foo

^and you dont get it because youre making shit up to stir some drama. DE isnt getting any hate here at all.

I was listening to this the other day and I realized. This song reminds me of Kim dracula for some reason, its just stephs riff playing throughout the song with Frank coming in....
Sort of like Kim Dracula where steph is just playing

4 is the Cherry Waves demo for me. Do you mean 3? That one has a nice groove. I like 13 a lot, too.

[Inkblades]

True. I saw someone trying to remake SNW with the demos in the comments section on your Youtube videos. If given the chance, how would you do it?

[Electron§]

I don't really know. I mean, given the fact these songs were meant to be Deftones songs, obviously there'd have to add Chino's style in it, but I wouldn't be so down with imitating Chino.

What exactly though would you try to add?

[Electron§]

"Finger of Death" and untitled #9 have always been my favorites.

[Inkblades]

I meant just what demos should have been finished by the band and then added to SNW. For me it's FOD, Demo #3, Demo #5, Demo #9, Demo #13, etc.

[Electron§]

They should have just taken all the songs and split them into two albums.

[snw9]

I actually like the track 4 a lot; maybe more than this one, even though the writing and structure are probably better on number 5.

I like the long heavy breakdown in the demo, that should have stayed on the SNW version

[Electron§]

maybe someone could take Chino vocals from other songs and put them on the demos?
