Deftones Bullshit Thread

[lungdamage]

Swerve City: so much for sounding like Feiticeira haha definitely bouncy, but very light-sounding. Love the halfway point.

Romantic Dreams: the beginning part is...the last thing I'd expect frm Deftones. This was the only one on the previews that didnt sound good to me. But 30 seconds of a song with a lotta tempo changes, vocal changes even, etc., doesnt do it justice. Nice. The vocals (or the effects on them anyways) remind me of ATF/ST I guess, so that's nice. Good song, pleasantly surprised by this.

Leathers: wen I first heard this I almost had a heart attack lol brilliant song, nice atmospheric introduction and just hits you with the aggression.

Poltergeist: love this song. It appealed to me wen I heard the live version, but I didnt play it much because the quality wasnt good enough for me to make an opinion. Album version is just brilliant though, unexpected heaviness.

Entombed: reminds me a lot of Crosses, even how Chino is singing. To me, it feels like a melancholy song, but building up into something happy or looking for some optimism. Love the "shapes and colors are all I see" part, lyrically and how it's sung. Simple but emotional. So much better than I thought it'd be frm listening to it.

Graphic Nature: three seconds in and I'm digging it haha. I'm not sure what tone I get frm this song. Definitely a bit of some darkness or something sinister or playful maybe. Not sure, but I love it, and the drums and whatnot remind me of Digital Bath.

Gauze: loved what I heard in the preview, thinking it'd be a favorite. And it is, but since I adore the entire album (so far) there's not really much in saying that. Anyways, I love it, just a fantastic song.

Rosemary: I dont know, I used to love it, but I think compared to the other songs it's not quite as good, but depends what you're in the mood for.

Goon Squad: I like how it builds up in the beginning and hits you. Another heavy song and surprisingly catchy. That said, not quite as awesome as I thought it'd be. Last minute and a half is great.

What Happened To You?: weird intro, just adds to them yet again doing new things, not just tryna re-create old albums. I think it's a great closer for the album. Cant really explain why, it just feels like it. Love the chorus especially.

I'm not gonna give the album/songs any ratings, because it's new music frm my favorite band: it's gonna be a 10/10 until the hype wears off haha. DE I was thinking was the best album ever, but wen the hype wore off, it was nowhere near as good as I thought it was. This album, however, could easily end up being in my top 3. Much better than DE, more experimental and intricate. Not their heaviest album, no, but not a complaint for me, personally. Dont get anyone thinking it'd be their most commercial or mainstream album. Hell. Fucking. No. DE is only heavier in the sense that it has songs like Royal and CMND/CTRL, whereas KNY only has Leathers in that respect. But man, there's a lotta heaviness going on in these songs, which to me shows they're still doing what they do best, even if they're not as aggressive.

As I predicted listening to the previews; WP feel with the optimism and clean feel of DE, and of course some new aspects. But to me, WP was their "alright, this is us going in a more experimental direction but still being us" frm their previous albums. And for me, KNY is the 2012 version of them doing just that. And no, I'm not calling it a White Pony 2.0, just the same kinda feel I get that it's them being more experimental. Damn, cant wait to see them play some new songs next year. EASILY gonna be in my top 3 even wen the hype wears off.

I said this once before when Rosemary leaked.. but picture this for a video..

A small plane flying in the night sky up north somewhere with 2 people, a man and a woman inside.. The plane is surrounded by the aurora borealis.. beautiful colors in slow motion as the plane soars through the empty sky.

cut to scenes in a dark area of the band playing.. with colors and stars, similar to the Diamond Eyes video..

The plane is in a dream like sequence with the colors coming from the sky to surround the plane during the first bridge of the song..

During the 3rd verse, the plane slows down to almost a stop in mid air.. the engines stall and then stop.. the ocean is now in clear view below with the colors reflecting back.. As soon as Chino says "EXPLODE!" the aurora RIPS the plane apart and it disintegrates. The people in the plane fall in slow motion toward the ocean during the final chorus and as the 2nd bridge starts... they begin to float through the colorful sky in bliss, eyes rolling back, engulfed by the aurora.. then they disappear, gone into where ever your mind thinks they went..

Feel free to add to it!! Its truly AMAZING what Chino can do with lyrics, how he paints such a vivid picture and it can be completely different for anyone.
