I can't believe people think the MP3's burnt onto a CD and played through your car stereo sounds good. Fuck. And the fact these MP3's could likely be a rip from some stream off a website...

a comment on it-leaked.com:

This is a webrip from a secure stream of the album. Supposedly you can hear Gmail chat sounds in track 4, though I haven't noticed them yet because my computer speakers are horrible. Either way, this will hold me over til we get a legit scene rip.

for a legit release we need to wait for a scene release...

Um put onto my ipod and played through my head unit with two 10" subs and amp sound pretty fuckin' good, like any retail CD/download I've ever had. Not sure what you're talking about. The 320k leak download I have sounds flawless, literally.

Agree 100%!

[m1nusblindfoLd]

I think you need to get a different leak then cause it sounds to be 100% different than mine and some others' versions. Mine is not shitty quality whatsoever.

I really can't believe there are 2 different leaks. Odd enough for one, bit 2? Pm me your link and I will compare if you like.

Can ya PM me the link you have?

Links are dead, copyright infringement. Checked mine again and it is 320. Hiss is most noticable at the end of sextape or beauty school. Can't remember which. I could also hear the beeps on hystb, 3 very faint beeps between :40 and :50. I think 43, 45, and 48.

How do you know that's not part of the editing maybe?

I did download your torrent though and at first listen it does appear to be the same. Other than these slight noises you mentioned, where in them does it sound like bad quality or quality less than retail? I don't get it?

I've listened now several times on ipod/headphones, PC speakers, and my car system..I didn't notice anything short of a 'final sound' that I can point out..

Hmm..

[iceache]

I hear those beeps too.. I dont know if its supposed to be there or not.. guess we'll find out.

Listen to the end (last 5 seconds) of beauty school loud. You can really hear the hiss loud there.

My version of the song Diamond Eyes seems to clip and distort and not in a good way...

I hear that on mine too, badly. There's no denying that one. Mines a 320kps leak aswell. Maybe this isn't the final product then?

But I'm fussy on quality, I like FLAC Lossless when I have it on my ipod, I have to have the full ass mix (since I'm a musician too and I notice the tinny Mp3 sound a LOT) The leak sounds damn impressive though. Funny how I hadn't noticed the hissing until you mentioned it to me, PLUS I haven't had it majorly loud through my headphones, only in one ear and at mid volume most of the time.

Warner pumps in lots in advertising, rocket skates video etc. and they dont do it to be nice,theyre doing it as an investment to make money. they want their spent money back (and then some) - in the form of record revenues, they want to harvest what they have sowed, and therefor it would be incredibly rude of the deftones to release the disc for free, months before.hell I do think it's pretty criminal. sounds far-fetched.

and if they dont like they label and their ways,why the hell do the contiunue to work with them?

Contract. You sign up for a certain amount of albums. Usually around 4 to 10. They probably signed up for 3 with the label, then when White Pony was so huge, they signed up for 4 more. S/T, SNW, Diamond Eyes, then they'll release Eros and be free from the label. But I'm just guessing and speculating.

My original post was to address the doubts in the rumour of themselves leaking it. When it's entirely possible. They're internet savvy guys afterall. Unlike a lot of popular bands from the past.

Like I said, the label aren't their best friends. SNW could've been a White Pony part 2 in terms of success, but it flopped (not that it matters to the band or us fans) But ask the people who are happy to be gone from a major record label i.e Trent Reznor (NIN) they hardly want to push you, they just want that reliable source of income from you and your product.

mine seems beep, clip, hiss and whatever else free. overall decent quality.

Dude, whack your volume up on the last 10-5 seconds of Beauty School (if you have headphones in) and see if you hear the hissing?

Watch out for Prince kicking in loudly after though lol

the guy named iceache on this board is responsible for leaking this album, I heard.  He was on another board saying he got it from his cousin who works for kroq.

[Sushi-X]

I don't hear any of the problems that keep getting mentioned.

Although it would be nice to get the final copy, so it could be just a little louder (not a brick of wall loud) on the drums and bass
