Eros

[deftones86]

I always wondered where that intro was going when they were releasing those in studio clips

[DeftonesNZ]

Yeah can't say i expected the melodic sort of riff, I like it but I thought it would be more like a simple chord thing it's pretty cool to hear Steph mix it up a bit some of that has an Adam Jones type feel aswell with ringing sound.

I've seen you guys sometimes say that you hope they'll release Eros and donate the money to Chi's family. Do you think their record label would allow that? I mean, when Chino released Smile, they took it down very quickly, didn't they? It seems like they wouldn't allow them to do that. But I guess they could release it when they're not with a record label or when they're done making music, and they could do it that way.

I think we'll just get parts of it over the years

Each band member would make money off the album if officially released. They could donate that to Chi's family and it's certainly possible, but the record label's cut would be up to the label. I wouldn't hold my breath on that though.

I am really enjoying this track, it gives me more hope for Eros (if it ever comes out). I kind of always suspected Eros was more hype than anything and if it ever made it out it wouldn't meet expectations but maybe I was just being pessimistic.

CHI is still attached to that album on contractual and legal terms so would the royalties and some proceeds from the sales not go to him?

From what you've heard how do you think this album sounds/will sound? To me, and I've only heard the rehearsal clip, it sounds like S/T with more variety and inspired songwriting and SNW with atmosphere. It would likely be heavier than their newer stuff but maybe not as heavy as the really early stuff. So pretty balanced maybe?

Well we've heard three songs.  You decide.

I hadn't heard Melanie and I forgot Smile was an Eros song. I discovered the band in 2009 so Eros stuff predates me.

There's more than 10 songs on the new album, we only saw partial track list.

Nothing is official but that's what we're working with. It's very likely that none of the eros tracks will be on the new album.

Yeah, they were Eros songs.  I assumed he was talking about Eros, not Gore... since this is the Eros thread.


And yes, with 0 inside information I can just about guarantee that none of the Eros songs will be on the new album.

Does anyone know if the lyrics and vocals to Smile were done after Chi's death?  Those lyrics would be eerie if they were written when they worked on Eros.

Nobody knows for sure but from what I've read / heard in interviews they shelved the album after Chi's accident and didn't work on it any further.

[Freedomsoldier17]

also regarding eros, didn't chino say they may consider releasing it after gore(at the time it was just the "next album" after KNY) gets released?

[Reichward]

He did, and I hope it is still what they have in mind.
