Eros

[N0S3BLEED976]

I know we'll only get something lame. I can feel it. Worst thing to me would be the band only releasing a handful of songs that "still fit their today's standpoint as a band", or even worse, rerecording the album and adjusting and tweaking it to their current style. I mean, I like KNY, but I would like Eros to be just as they used to describe it: dark, complex and heavy. Imagine an originally dark and moody song with new, "Entombed-like" vocals...

[deftoolsys07]

They will definitely not do any re-recording. I know I wouldn't. However, I think that when/if they decide to release something, it might only be one or two tracks that they feel are the best or most complete or best represent the rest of the album. Then after an outcry from the fans saying they want the whole thing perhaps even later they'd release it as is. But who knows.

I'm assuming Chino had written vocals to all the songs and they rehearsed them as a full band. Eros had been in development since May 2007, so it was worked on for a good year and a half. It might sound odd and disconnected if one half of Eros had 08-styled vocals, and the other half had Chino's newer singing style. However, it's Chino, so I think he could pull it off. I think.

[pinkmaggit69]

Can they finally release Eros, and give the profits to Chi's family?

[New Murderer]

Can we get a petition going or something? Haha... Was going through all the old clips again just now and I'm so interested to hear it more than ever.

Xo is definetively an S/T outtake, if i'm not wrong it was to be released on the bloody cape single (which never came out)

Absolutely correct.

Excellent find! Thank you very much.

[luisch]

You're welcome, bud.

[defTHE1s]

If they made an entire album as dark and sad as Finger of Death is, it would be the greatest goddamn thing ever.

Fuck. Yeah.

Amen.

[nicklav]

Complete agree.

[defTHE1s]

i'm starting to understand the closer of the album now and it's just just amazing. there's this repetitive riff that chino sings to for half the song, no verse or chorus it's just keeps on going. then in the middle of the song, steph begins to play the riff backwards while chino continues to sing the same melody which is the wierdest thing ever. then the last minute it gets real heavy like in royal and chino begins to sing the melody backwards too, this while he sounds like an ancient evil witch, which is strange because at the same time it sounds very spacey and futuristic, love the effects on his voice. best ending of a record i've ever heard

If only....

[defTHE1s]

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

So sad.. same here

What the hell is Chino talking about when he says "Like "Kevin Sorbo" or "Lovers"..."? Is there an S/T outtake called "Kevin Sorbo"?  lol

[kurtone]

Kevin Sorbo was the working title for Lovers

Oh and I'm apparently the only Deftones fan ever who couldn't give a shit about "Finger Of Death".

Oh I'm aware. It just shocks me that it makes its way into every thread. It wasn't that great guys.
