I dislike of Entombed and Graphic Nature kinda suprise me.

Not my faves but solid tracks...
One last Thing...You Should Beware the Content!!

Thank God that you........ love..... at all.

meh, Graphic Nature is one of the best songs on KNY. but I guess it goes above most peoples heads.
pray nightfall release me
then i could wander, wander to deep sleep

DeftonesNZ

Yeah Graphic Nature is great some of my favourite KNY lyrics are on that song  "I'm aware of the demons,That you've tucked away ,I like to watch you release them" good shit

Electron§

"Swerve City", "Entombed", "Whatever Happened To You", and "Tempest" should have never made it past being joke songs in the rehearsal space.

swerve shitty is made to broader the fan base i think. not meant to be a die hard pleaser

DeftonesNZ

I think Swerve was just made to be like an opener just short and up-beat, it does it's job well as an opener but not much more

from_musings

it was meant to be track number 4

DeftonesNZ

Yeah i know it wasn't originally the opener but it has the traits of a good opener and I think it opens the album well it would kill the flow of the album if it was further down

you do a lot of this

DeftonesNZ

I said "like an opener" as in similar traits not "as an opener" there's a difference

from_musings

just classic you though. it's like-

you: "times were bad in the band during eros, that's why there are rumors that the album is dark"

-no times were good in the band, they began to hang out and find their way back to each other''

you "that's what I meant. the music is dark because the music is a hobby of theirs, not reflecting their lives or anything. chino said this in a recent interview, so.."

i see stuff like this all the time

DeftonesNZ

If you actually read those posts properly you would of seen I admitted i was once thought it was bad times but after seeing that interview was corrected
QuoteI always thought it was bad times aswell but Chino said recently in that front magazine interview that Eros is when they started doing the whole working together deal they made Diamond Eyes and KNY so fast
I've seen you on here as well and i know how much you love getting into it with people but your just not worth my time,so go get someone else to teach you the nuances of the English language and don't try start arguments until you have the reading comprehension to  back them up

weak and desperate try to change focus.the eros example was just one i made up to show you how you act,but you're probably not even aware of how you are yourself.and you might want to check your grammar in a post where you're telling me about the language ^

DeftonesNZ

My post was directly addressing yours, I simply discredited your example,I don't care about grammar this is the internet not an exam i would just like you to actually read my posts before trying to have a go at me.

from_musings

I've seen many posts where you state things as facts. but when you are corrected by someone, you never admit you were wrong - instead you agree and say you always had that same view as the person who corrects you. although it's the opposite of what you first wrote.

like you would say "like linus is an offical deftones album"

-no, deftonesnz, it's not official, just a collection of songs - fan made.

"yeah i know it's fan-made, i was just talking about how wikipedia says it's offical, and it's laughable"

classic deftonesnz  :)

DeftonesNZ

I never said that either,Maybe sometimes i don't explain myself properly but i'm not purposely trying to lie i'm used to typing fast so i make mistakes

I'm keeping my vote on Graphic Nature. And I really enjoy this song, but it's my last favourite for now. Someday maybe it will be my 1st favourite. It happens with deftones' music.

Glad to see WHTY gone  :D even though it's not a bad track at all.
It doesn't really seem to fit the album though, we get such an awesome run of songs with Gauze, Rosemary and Goon Squad and they just flow so beautifully into each other and then the oddity WHTY comes along and then just fizzles out.
That's my only criticism of KNY really, I really wish they had chosen a more epic song as the closer. So much effort to bring some extra atmosphere and emotion to the tracks with the intricate intros and outro's and then this song just slapped on at the end :(
My next vote goes to Entombed.
By no means is this a bad track, nor am I voting it off because it's a slow song, in fact I think it's a pretty good track and is integral to the feeling of the album
It's also not a case of me preferring if it weren't included on the album like I felt with Beauty School on DE.
For me Entombed has too much of a Thirty Seconds to Mars (a band I can't stand) feel to it and I don't like the way Chino sings in the chorus either, it almost sounds like he's trying to be Jared Leto!
There are some really nice details in the song but for me Xerces is an example of a slower Deftones track done right.
