Rocket Skates - Studio Version

[Jacob]

Oh my gawsh. Love it. Didn't really feel like this prior to S/T or when I first heard HITE. I am genuinely pumped.

heh, reminds me of when the shorter version of Hexagram was released and how fucking psyched I was about it. then I heard the whole version and was kinda disappointed (I still think the short version is better). and then the album came and it took months before I actually got into it. pretty much a letdown at first.

I'm gonna a major pain in everyone's ass, and I'm sorry about that in advance, but could anyone please post / pm a link to anything else than Megaupload cause it doesn't work in Hong Kong.

Thanks very much in advance.

So I just listened to it on Youtube... It's really great... I love the way it's produced, with vocals slightly more in the background, with the fucking heavy guitar and bass, and that loooooooooud, greasy, slimy sound ! And the song in itself is really awesome too...
Man, it feels so good getting your hands on some new deftones...

Hmmmmm, that bass during the first chorus... So cool !
And that bridge, with Frank's effects, and the nice fast riff...

[Slacker]

yeah you can tell how is not chi in bass, im not saying that is a bad thing, nor im saying is better.

im just saying.

[Hidalgo]

i can't hear the bass at all

[pixElsblUr]

i don't think diamond eyes will have any defined bass lines like Chi's (Cherry Waves ATF, etc.) I think it's pretty much like the movie Rockstar, hes just a bass player for hire IMO

[tarkil]

i can't hear the bass at all

!?!?!?

[Sushi-X]

had to wait till this morning to get it. but it was worth the wait. so excited for the rest of the album!

[Hidalgo]

i can't hear the bass at all

!?!?!?

i can't, maybe it's because i'm listening to it on my tv, downloaded from my ps3, but i can't hear it

[tarkil]

Could be yes... I'm listening to it with some nice earphones, and the bass is there... Well, you can't here it that greatly all along the song (I guess it follows the guitar pretty much), but at some points (for instance during the chorus), Sergio does these greats slides, going so fucking low, it's awesome !!!

BTW, for everyone having trouble with megaupload, go there, and no trouble anymore...

yea, i can definitely hear the bass in cherry waves, change(in the house of flies), uuddlrle, etc, hite, but not on this track. maybe cause it's so dominated by Stef, and the bass line isn't distinct enough

So I can't DL it from the web. Wrong Code or something like that... and yeah, I'm pretty much a bored guy so I didn't look on the last pages on this thread... so...

youtube is not working

Any insight into what we could expect to see/hear in the near future?

Well, let's have a good hand info, Sergio Vega tells us about his experience in deftones, Juan Gonzalez too talk us about all the time with they, though, the official video of rocket skates will come out very very soon and maybe the disc has a third simple, still do not know, Nylons and Suspenders

keep visiting the page, are updated daily

As much as I love the song, does anybody else think that the effects on chinos voice are partially to compensate for his weak screams?

[raynor]

listened to this song thrice now, really not feeling it.

[ToneDef]

I think the song is great.

maybe, maybe not. but considering his screams when they play the song live are way more powerful, I doubt it. actually, that's the only complaint I have about the song - it does sound awesome in the studio, but the "knives" scream sounds so much more awesome live.

[devilinside]

badassery!

[Hidalgo]

i'm not in love with it either. i like it though, it's about the same as rapture, as far as how good it is. predictable , but still good. they've done this all before though (not that doing it again is horrible, they're good at making this kinda tune, but i'd like to see them push their talent to the limit, Stef mainly)

Hmmm... so 3 songs before the album's even released ? Sounds good to me.

Maybe the Rocket Skates video is part of the EPK? Kinda like how Street Carp was.
