Diamond Eyes Tracklist

[Vesanic]

I'd love to see Combat played live.

[pixElsblUr]

me too dude, riviere also

[Vesanic]

How come they never played them live ? That's nonsense.

How come they never played them live ? That's nonsense.

I remember Chino said Combat was too hard to sing and play on guitar at the same time. sounds like bullshit to me, but I can't really see any other reason why they won't play it. it's one of my all-time favorite Deftones songs, so it kinda sucks imo.

[pixElsblUr]

where did you hear this?

[Vesanic]

Chino plays guitar on it ? I didn't know.


About Riviere, I talked to Deftones' assistant on oneloveforchi chat ( Gina can confirm ), he told me that they never played it live but they did use it sometimes as a soundcheck and it was definitely a killer tune, played live...

But he didn't know if there were any specific reason why they never played it onstage.

[Hidalgo]

i thought Chino said they practiced playing Combat & they sucked at it. they do need to play those 2 at some point

[Vesanic]

I wonder if Chino knows that he lost 80% of his initial vocal skills.

[Hidalgo]

for some reason i don't usually trust what Chino says anyway. none of them seem to know their own history or even what's going on that month/week with the band. they don't pay any attention to it like we do

[Jacob]

where did you hear this?

can't really remember, but probably from an interview someone posted here. I don't really read any Deftones related info any other place than here, so...

[rock_n_frost]

it was an interview during that summer tour while snw out.. chino said ''we cant play combat song, we tried but it wasnt right..we cant''
first they said 2nd single will be cherry waves then they made the biggest mistake ever..

if you are talkin about snw this is the order :

KimDracula > Combat > Beware > Cherry Waves > Riviere

[Vesanic]

Can't believe I'm the only one to think that Riviere might be THE highlight of the record.

[Hidalgo]

Can't believe I'm the only one to think that Riviere might be THE highlight of the record.

i'm with ya. i made a topic about this a few years ago

[frud]

Riviere is too short. could've been amazing.

[TheShade1989]

Can't believe I'm the only one to think that Riviere might be THE highlight of the record.

I agree, Riviere is my favorite frm SNW. Well, except Beware, but they're kinda equal to me.

[Hidalgo]

Riviere is too short. could've been amazing.

i disagree, it's amazing as is

[frud]

Let me rephrase. Could have been MORE amazing.

[pixElsblUr]

It's bloody perfect

[E-Money]

Can't believe I'm the only one to think that Riviere might be THE highlight of the record.

im with ya, but i love kimdracula and combat almost as much.

riviere is a good song up until the last 30 seconds when chino sounds like hes falling off a twinkie tower. but it is a good song and the best album closer.
