i like combat... always thought it would be a good show opener if they could get it down

same here, I personally think that's the best song on the album. for some reason they won't play it though. according to Chino it's because he can't sing and play it at the same time.... which sound like bull to me.
pray nightfall release me
then i could wander, wander to deep sleep

yeah that is bull.. combat is the best song without a doubt!

chino plays guitar on combat?? anyways, speaking of underrated deftones songs, i was listening to deathblow today in my car and realized how fucking awesome abes drumming is.

Riviére is fucking great, but I would say that Combat and Kimdracula are the best songs
Death is screaming my name
yet I refuse to listen to Him

So why doesn't he just get Stef who is the guitar player to play while he sharpens his voxs?  Maybe it's a pride thing, who knows.
My faves from SNW would be Rapture (it would kick so much ass if it were beefed up to the sound on s/t 2003), Xerces (I don't consider it a "true" Deftones song, but hey, listen to the instrumental demo, it's a very nicely written song - before SNW came out, me and my ex-girlfriend was listening to the SNW Sampler in the car at night on the way home and she said the song sounded 'pretty', I smiled and agreed  ;) ), Rats, Combat, Kim, and Riviére (to me it sounds like if Digital Bath were a person, it would be a person that just got quit drugs [got clean]... I know that sounds weird but I mean that by the personality and atmosphere of the song).  I'd say I like about 1/2 of SNW, the rest is kinda eh... and I enjoy tracks like Teenager and Luck You but Pink Cellphone, (*insert sound of toilet flushing).

Riviere is one of the best but not THE BEST song on SNW.  If it were a little longer and the bridge wasn't so uninspired it would've been better.  Combat is the best song on SNW.

Just wondering, am I the only one who's noticed that the beginning of Riviere and The Boys Republic sound alot alike?  I dunno if Chino wrote TBR on guitar or not but it does kinda sound like something in his style.  Anyway just check out this little mp3 I made [yes, I am that bored at the moment, ha]:

Yes I do love Riviere, Combat is best though...

I was actually in bed the other night, and I had fallen asleep listening to Saturday Night Wrist. I woke up  who knows how many songs later, and Riviere was playing; it was incredible. Maybe it was because I was still in that dream-like, groggy state (or debatably fucked up), but I saw the song in a completely different light. But I still like Xerces.

And agreed on Combat being the best song. I read somewhere that they were trying to get Combat down so they could play it live without loss of quality, and I hope they get to that. Beware is a great song too, but I hate hearing it live; it loses its enrapturing quality and that's what makes the song.

Hidalgo

i think they're really good at beware live, really good

lithium

beware is probably one of their greatest accomplishments

it's also much better live.

sickened

Riviere is definitely in the top 3 along with Beware and Combat.

Wheres the Rapture love?

Anyway agreed it's a great song but saying any song is "The Bestest" is totally subjective.

Rapture (aside from PC) was the hardest song to get into. I agree that Beware is amazing though.

wither-I
