Diamond Eyes album cover reveal

[nineteenpeoplesnames]

pretty sure the "blue part" is just the colors inverted

That's what I thought too at first, but I don't know, I'm sure there's something else.



Owly shit.

I lolz.

An owl for the front cover? Wise old owl? and why a barn owl?

[Hesperian Death-Horse!]

I think SNW had one of the greatest album covers ever.

Greatest ever?  No f*cking way.  I really dug it, though.  It had a cool, vintage sex vibe.

ONE OF the greatest ever. Not THE VERY GREATEST EVER. Yeah, that vibe is exactly why I find it so intriguing. It has a seriously legit eroticism to it that I can't help but love.

[FeetLikeFins]

Maybe cos they look fucking beautiful and awesome?  I don't know.  

I'm just a poor boy, from a poor family.

[Hesperian Death-Horse!]

I know that we all know it's gonna be the owl, but to prove it I inverted the owl and...

Yeah, if the whole cover is nothing but that owl inverted like that, I'll truly shit my pants with joy. The effect it has on the eyes is sick as hell. Thoroughly good.

[FeetLikeFins]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


*ghey*

*GHEY(*

Yeah, I like it too.

"you remind me of the babe"

might only have that colour invert crap to disguise it on the trailer

[lahemi]

Hm, at first I thought "WTF? A fucking owl?!", but after I've seen that...



...owls fucking rule!

[FeetLikeFins]

"you remind me of the babe"

"what babe?"

[Hesperian Death-Horse!]

What if this were the cover???

[el perro]

"you remind me of the babe"

"what babe?"

The owl reminds me of that old movie labyrinth with david bowie

In French, an owl is a "chouette". But "chouette" also means "neat" or "nice", stuff like that.

Sorry I had to share this.

Oh, and of course you didn't find it on the deftones merch page, did you ?

[defsteve]

Oh, and of course you didn't find it on the deftones merch page, did you ?

Yeah I did.

But someone from the merch site obviously fucked up as it's been changed back....

[Vesanic]

Hahaha, they fucked up the surprise, now we all know what the cover is. The teasers are worthless. 

[lozz]

Thing is not all deftones fans are as ruthless as tracking down stuff like this as here, so they probs haven't seen the owl yet and will be watching the teaser videos keenly. I do appreciate it very much never the less.

Sorry I had to share this.

In Italian it would be a "civetta", and when referred to women it means "pretty but vain and silly"...

Anyway, I like owls!
I was thinking about 2 things:
1)The owl is sacred to Minerva
2)Minerva is a virgin Goddes, could it mean this album is in contrast with the one that was going to come out, Eros?

Just a random thought...

[funksk8er]

I like how when everyone started disusing this...the owl mysteriously disappeared from the merch site. oops. someone messed up.
