Eros

[deftoner664]

This would be dope.. Fan made or official.

That picture looks pretty somber, which reinforces my thoughts that Eros was going to be kind of a self titled part 2.

I think it was what they used for the Deftones.com background + links

Correct.

Which one of the known Eros songs was/is everyone excited to hear the final/studio/full version of? The one in clip #3 fucking makes my brain explode. It sounds almost it could be a Tool song. So much bass and those drums are pretty awesome. I can imagine now Chino screaming over that riff.

When I first heard Melanie I thought ''What a cool song - I can't wait, in a few weeks/months I'll be listening to the studio version on my new copy of Eros.''
Little did I know

Same thing here... and talking about Melanie have you noticed that Steph played that song live on a 7 strings guitar but in all Eros studio clips he is playing an 8 strings... i wonder why.

PS. My guesssing: Maybe he didnt want to take his 8 strings guitar on tour just to play one single song.

It would be nice if someone could take the stuff we know from Eros and fix it up a little, so we can at least have our own little idea of how those songs would sound all nice and mastered.

That could be the case. Now that I've heard the 8 string, imagine how heavy it'll sound on Eros?!

I really want listen Chi playin' guitar..

[Electron§]

Chi played some guitar on Eros?! What?

[DEFinatelydeftones,fsho]

No, Abe did. Y they scrapped it.

[Electron§]

And then Frank did vocals right?

[luisch]

Chi played some guitar on Eros?! What?

Check it out this interview, 2008

¿Are you playing all the guitars on the album?

No, Chino plays guitars on songs, too. Actually, we have this huge identity crisis in our band, I thnk. I play bass on some songs, I play keyboards on a couple songs and obviously I play guitar; Chino plays guitars and plays bass on a song. And on this record, Chi wants to explore his creative roots, so now he's playing guitar on a couple songs. Abe's obviously just playing drums; I'm like, "Abe, why don't you step out and grab a keyboard, man? Let me get back there, I'll throw a beat down; mix it up." Our attitude when we're jamming, you know we're just having fun, goofing around. And I don't mean goofing around like it doesn't matter; like have fun with it, it's music. I think if you stick to a certain set of rules all the time in music, you're limiting the music. Because you don't know what really can happen or what can came out if you just kind of let go and let it be what it's gonna be.

Luis is right. In the intro of the Eros videos, you can see Chino holding a bass guitar and Chi holding a guitar, if I'm correct.

[DEFinatelydeftones,fsho]

That just made me hard abt Eros once again, damn it! Record just sounds idk.....I guess unimaginable still. In a great way

[momo]

read thru about the last 42 pages....don't believe it all tho. old news buddy

[Inkblades]

The fact that Chi is playing guitar on Eros is all the more reason why they should release it soon.

[Electron§]

I always thought it was very cool how intricate the song in the beginning of the Eros clips sounded, the drums and guitars and bass all kind of like go against each other, in a good way of course. When I first heard that it hyped me up so much because I thought it sounded alot like At the Drive In.
