Diamond Eyes - Thoughts + reviews

[FeetLikeFins]

GOOSEBUMPS...Every song....Fantastic...Pure Genius...I dunno if its cause weve waited so long or were just excited its new Deftones but it sounds amazing...We say it for every album but this actually has a feel to it that hits home...Doesnt sound like they were tryin very hard...Has a very natural feel to it...Chinos voice and singing sound effortless...Some of his best to date IMO...Still cant get over how amazing this is..And again not just saying it because its a new Deftones album...

You know what the best part is?  

It's not because we've waited so long.  

It's because it really, really is that album we've been waiting for.  

[Jesus2Chino]

I'm waiting for the CD to drop to listen, but the idea that the album is out there makes me twitch a little, I can't lie. I'm stoked at the welcome it is getting here though.

Much respect,
-Matt

my only problem with waiting, is nobody is guaranteed to live 2 more months. plus i gotta hear their new stuff the second i can. i'm buying the album for sure, so it's all good deals

risk is excellent, and it was supposed to be the "forgetable" one of the album

[TheQuietDoom46]

And as far as people highlighting Sextape, rightfully so! Such a surreal feel to it, so beautiful sounding...man I'm so pleased.

I don't see why, such a great song! Love the chorus.."I will say? your life.."

Damn right. Risk is one of my favorites.

[Dienekes]

I have not stopped listening since 4pm today. This album blows me away. It is impossible to pick a favorite and they all fit together so well! Anybody else notice there is only like a half second break between songs? Think this is how the real album will be?

As an aside, we gotta' give sergio a little love. Killer bass line on prince, "mindset of a killer". This album made my whole fucking year...

[bebo]

Frank is a fucking pro on this album

I thought so, in fact I was hoping it was save..I just couldnt hear the v in save. Good to know! Love it.

I agree, I'm hearing a lot of very cool effects on a lot of the tracks. Especially at the part: "I will save your life.." - Risk

Oi, this is sound logic, which makes it just that much harder to wait. Day 1 and I'm a little dizzy. I've never listened to leaked Deftones stuff before besides the clips from S/T. I remember a little piece of me wishing that I hadn't listened to the clips once I gave the album a listen. Regret plagues both paths I'm afraid--but I won't regret anything if I'm dead, haha. Not an easy call for me.

Much respect,

Respect to you for having the patience and strength to wait, man.

[deftonesloyal]

question: what city is on the cover of the cd?

[Sushi-X]

Thats not the actual album art. And nobody knows what city that is.

[luisch]

somebody knows what scream Chino on Prince?

Totally agree, a lot of work in all the album
