I voted for sextape but I'm regretting it now honestly.
It's a great track - the guitar intro is beautiful and it definitely gives the album some breathing space.
It does sound like something you would expect to find on a Team Sleep album though.
Of the 2 slow tracks (this and Beauty School) I think Sextape is much better.
The album gets off to such a good start with such an aggressive pace and the Beauty School ruins it a bit for me.
It Beauty School was left out I'd probably appreciate Sextape much more because it would really have more impact after all of the more aggressive tracks.
My biggest critism of Diamond Eyes is that it gets a bit slow and boring and loses its aggressiveness after Rocket Skates.
There should have maybe been another faster track towards the end IMO - I find myself listening to the first half of the album much more than the 2nd.

Risk is the epitome of a Deftones song. I think Sextape sounds the least like them. It's not a terrible song, but not what I think of when I think of Deftones.

words of wisdom! i fully agree

Yeah i dunno how you can be a deftones fan and not like royal.

Hmmm so if you like every Deftones song but Royal you're not a Deftones fan?  That doesn't make a lot of sense.  What makes more sense is people like some songs more than others.

Every time I listen to Royal I skip straight to the last min of the song.  The rest of it.... OK at best. 

But boo for me.  I accidentally voted for Prince when I mean to vote for Risk.  They aren't even next to each other or look alike.  I was having one of my more retarded than usual moment.

Hopefully it wasn't to masturbate.  That's usually what I resort to when I can't remember what I was doing.

Completely worthless opinion as usual. At least you're consistent, though.

Variable

Would you like me to break it down scientifically as to why I don' like the song?  Perhaps I could invent a math formula for us all to use in order to rank Deftones songs and Chino's outfits from best to worst?  You let me know how I can make your day better, I'm here for you.

That would be pretty fucking impressive.

Ill see if I can get my  buddy Steven Hawking to help me out.  I REALLY want to impress inkblades with my post from here on out. 

SX King

Of course cuz we all care so much about what he thinks. Wouldnt want him to be disappointed.

Variable

At lest I know that I'm not alone in this endeavor
