New album

[snw9]

I think I am. Team Sleep is better.

Im feeling Team Sleep nostalgic

[deftones86]

I think we've heard the last of Team Sleep.

It seems natural, however, I wish they would still make instrumental songs without Chino.

[hole-in-the-earth]

I doubt their Facebook is actually run by them. They do that stuff all the time.

[deftones86]

team sleeps dead. I got to see them live, not saying im better than you....but no really i am

[RollerDerby]

crosses doesn't hold a candle to TS.. bermuda locket has a cool melody and beat but it isn't mind-blowingly epic like the team sleep album

I love the Crosses eps, but this is a valid statement.

[bewareofrats]

The first Team Sleep album is far from being mind-blowingly epic.  I really like a lot of it but it's not THAT great.

All a matter of opinion.

[bewareofrats]

Well that's debatable.   

[RollerDerby]

Well that's debatable.   

Most certainly is. I feel a lot more from listening to the ambience of TS, however the songwriting on the two Crosses EPs are some of my favorite lyrics that Chino has ever wrote.

[bewareofrats]

I love Option.  Chino sounds so great and full of passion on that one.  And some very interesting lyrics.

I completely agree. Trophys is one of my favorites lyrically as well.

[dictatesofreason]

i think its just progress and growth on Chino's part, he's learned new ways to write and has developed HIS own way of making music aside from all the deftones stuff he's done, in the early years he was more or less sequestered away in the "deftones area", but now as technology and and stuff has advanced (not mention getting older and garnering wisdom)he can do more of what he likes musicly; and though they seems to be two different styles TS and crosses are in fact both a part of Chino's signature style of musical genius-just and two different points in time.

well said.

team sleep has adorable little tracks you can fall in love with.

crosses sounds like polished mainstream crap that could easily fit into the soundtrack of a twilight movie.

[pony_01]

something is missing in crosses, i dont know what it is but they're dope too. And team sleep, their selftitled, i dont really loves it because of rob crowe, the guest singer who sing on entire song, even two songs or more, i dont like him. i just want chino's part more. but for the demos, its pure gold. mercedes, tdck, 27058, shanghai, jk, solid gold, formant, biionca, tennisface and everything, is fucking amazing, best music to get high

[bewareofrats]

I agree about Rob Crowe.  I'm not a big fan of his voice or style, or something.  And I think the production should be different/better for Crosses.  That's something that takes it down a bit for me I think but I really like some of the 2 EPs.

[blondie]

robert crow is just wonderful.

[Penicks]

i think he sounds like a huge faggot

no offense
