Live it sounds terrible, but on SNW its a total masterpiece.
i'd say combat, kimdracula, rapture, cherry waves, u,u,d,d,l,r,l,r,a,b,select,start,  xerces, and beware all trump hole in the earth.

it's since grown on me and i really do enjoy the song but on the deftones scale of awesomeness it's not even close to the top.

i'd fall into this school of opinion on HITE.
it's very average, and like he also said, there's 8-9 better songs on that album.
We'll stop to rest on the moon, and we'll make fire.
I'll steal a carcass for you, and feed off the virus.

Hole in the earth sounds like deftones trying to sell out, and failing bad.

i second that

...and some of the songs in the Bob Ezrin Demo Sessions trump most of those...but let's not get into that, just IMHO...

I would  agree with this post. I love SNW there is only one song I dont dig and thats PC.

I feel like HITE has some mystique to it, like this song is really important somewhat. I dig the fact that it's telling the story of how the band was near breaking up, I totally feel like this song sometimes.

HITE is dope. Rocket Skates is dope.

when i watch the rocket skates recording, it feels soo close to a studio version, did they mention anythin about having the same approach as eros? As in, all recording together instead to combining separate parts?

Shat that video of Rocket Skates sounds good. I like how rough those riffs are and Chino sounds damn good. I hope we get that nice powerful squeal at the end of his screaming on the album version. I want at least one good squeal on this album.
Open-minded?  Here's some short videos to challenge your thinking:

how's hole in the earth a sellout? compare it to catchy-ness of digital bath or change, or a lot of other (overrated) white pony material, be quiet and drive.., that shit is a lot more radio friendly or what. those actually were some sort of hits so it proves.

and yeah i noticed the similarity on first listen. doesnt bother me enough.
