Deftones 'Diamond Eyes' Track-By-Track Preview

http://www.metalhammer.co.uk/news/deftones-diaond-eyes-review/
It's got to be said, 'Diamond Eyes' probably represents the finest vocal performance of Chino Moreno's career to date and the way he leads this track is nothing short of breath-taking.

So excited.

Hey, I was polite and just told you to read the previous page next time you want to be sure that what you post is really new.

Keep lurking, it's really not a big loss. Next time some guy is politely asking for the time, don't rip his balls off, please.

i actually think it was harsh to lock the thread as it deserves its own thread.

Not everyone checks this particular thread and the song by song description could have got lost in here...

just my thoughts

Sex Tape – A guitar intro that reminds a little of the Smashing Pumpkins (bizarrely). Blissfully chilled-out and a welcome break from the full-on nature of the album thus far, Sex Tape is the Deftones challenging themselves in the realms of elegant song-writing and reaping the benefits incredibly. One of the best tracks on the album and something that could become a career-highlight.

When you think about it, Be Quiet And Drive's guitar is very Pumpkins - especially considering the Pumpkin chord is used XD So it's not that bizarre.

that's why I linked to the message in question. this place is gonna be flooded with redundant threads and idiots who can't read or use the search function, and I'm intending to try to keep it as clean as possible.

i agree that this place has become ridiculous and not criticising, just making the point that that article will be lost within a day and may not be noticed by a lot of people.

no, be quiet and drive is very "everlong" by foo fighters. hell it is almost a rip off

Deftones 'Diamond Eyes' Track-By-Track Preview

In summarizing, when Deftones say this is one of the best albums of their career, they weren't kidding. On first listen, this seems set to become a Deftones classic. A heavier album than Saturday Night Wrist, it has massive influence from both Around The Fur and White Pony. Stunning stuff from the Sacramento alt-metallers.

Damn.  I'm TRULY excited now.  Thanks for posting.

CMND/CNTRL – An instant Deftones classic. A savage riff bounces like it's 1998 all over again while Chino scats and screams before unleashing another mammoth chorus. This is a straight up banger, begging to be dropped in clubs and will sound epic live.

hahaha i called it first. instead of a trip hop tune i had a feeling it was gonna be A kick ass song

I like "CMND/CTRL" as a title. Seems like the lyrics would be about a power struggle (Command and Control) in a relationship that that Chino can scream his head off about. Think about the title "When Girls Telephone Boys." At face value its kind of humorous but when you actually hear it, you know its pretty serious business. Most of us are pretty aware of Deftones particular sense of humor.

Of course this track will probably be the equivalent of "U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R,A,B, Select, Start" now that I've made that connection and in keeping with the theme of key commands for electronics as song titles.

Yeah. I called it too. lol. Of course I played it safe by getting back on the fence with the second paragraph.

that would be awesome, but i doubt it sells well. unless they put a nickelback logo on the front cover
