i don't know but i bet it's something occult

Haha quite possibly!
I was just reading up on it and someone else suggested "cut it hard" but still no meaning to it.. not that Engine No. 9 is a lucidly interpretable track. And when I heard them play this live, Chino just blasted something incoherent into the mic for that part

Not sure, I can only venture a guess. At that part in the song there is kind of a low point, it's after he is screaming WHY, DID (or WIPE, HATE) [not 100% on this either] then he goes "last one" and you can pretty much only hear the bass line and the last guitar chord fading out before he screams "CUT IT HARD" and immediately after that you hear some heavy guitar. So to me the "CUT IT HARD" is like when you are driving and you cut the wheel hard to make a sharp turn, the song makes a "sharp turn" from that low point with only fading guitar chord and bass line back into heavy guitar gain / riff. I don't know that is probably a poor reason / meaning but that is what came to my mind.

Does this song have anything to do with the rap song that has a line "Engine Engine number 9, on the new york transit line, if my train goes off the track, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up." I'm pretty sure the rap song came first it was early 90s and adrenaline album is from '95.

sharing lungs is basically a fan club, in as much as you can become a member and talk to other deftones fans, all it needs is a shit t-shirt to take off.

Oldnewtype · Jul 11, 2011, 10:27 PM

I'd wear a shit shirt from sharing lungs.

well we should make a thread where people can pitch their design ideas (robo buzzsaw anybody?) and we vote on them. only thing is manufacturing and shipping or whatever might be a bitch. i'd buy one most definitely though.

Oldnewtype · Jul 11, 2011, 11:35 PM

yeah I'd buy one. Proceeds should go to chi but im sure nuno could use some extra money for this place too.

BillyNo.9 · Jul 12, 2011, 12:48 AM

Maybe there should be a rule that only Stock owners could buy them, so you'd have to donate to the site before being able to buy one in order to raise money for Chi?

Oldnewtype · Jul 12, 2011, 02:41 AM

depends on how much the shirts were, donating then paying for a shirt sounds lame. Now a free shirt for donating $X would be a cool idea.

BillyNo.9 · Jul 12, 2011, 02:46 AM

True it's all on Nuno really. Donating is still a good idea though

Oldnewtype · Jul 12, 2011, 03:02 AM

Fuck I need cash anyway, I'm just gonna steal the forum logo and get you all to buy my sharing lungs shirts.

from_musings · Jul 12, 2011, 09:46 AM

Revolver Magazine interview in 2003.

DEFTONES SLAMS METALLICA
Deftones frontman Chino Moreno spoke to Revolver magazine about the group's stint on the upcoming Summer Sanitarium trek. "A big problem for me was opening for Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park, two bands that wouldn't exist if it weren't for me, straight up!" the singer is quoted as saying in the magazine's August 2003 issue. "But in the end I'm seriously energized and I'm not going out there to make friends and kick it."
Regarding the tour's headliners, Moreno said, "Metallica have a vast catalog. But live? Mother****ers just stand there and play. We're gonna rock out their ****. We're gonna blow that mother****er up."

In the same interview, Chino talked about Deftones' lyrical approach and took an opportunity to slam Korn frontman Jonathan Davis, saying that "As [KORN] go on, it's the same things — bad childhoods and mean moms. It gets old after awhile. How old is Jonathan? Thirty years old? How long has it been since he lived with his parents? Try to go somewhere else. If you're genuine and write about whatever is drawing the emotion now, you can't be ****ed with."

DEFTONES Singer Slams LINKIN PARK, LIMP BIZKIT, METALLICA And KORN - May 29, 2003

DEFTONES frontman Chino Moreno spoke to Revolver magazine about the group's stint on the upcoming Summer Sanitarium trek. "A big problem for me was opening for LIMP BIZKIT and LINKIN PARK, two bands that wouldn't exist if it weren't for me, straight up!" the singer is quoted as saying in the magazine's August 2003 issue. "But in the end I'm seriously energized and I'm not going out there to make friends and kick it. I'm out there to leave people with their jaws on the floor. And I know we can do it. I know we're the best live band on the tour." Asked if that includes the tour's headliners, Moreno said, "Hell yeah. METALLICA have a vast catalog. But live? Motherfuckers just stand there and play. We're gonna rock out their shit. We're gonna blow that motherfucker up."

In the same interview, Chino talked about wanting to distance himself from a lot of the bands that the DEFTONES were being lumped in with and offered an opinion on why the lackluster sales of such releases as KORN's "Untouchables" and PAPA ROACH's "Lovehatetragedy" shouldn't be a barometer of how many units DEFTONES will shift.

"Those records weren't good — it's that simple," he said. "As far back as when we were making 'Around The Fur', I remember already being sickened by what was going on with the bands we were grouped with. But if you make good songs, it doesn't matter what style it is — if it's good and heartfelt, it will sell."

"Honestly, I don't think KORN made a good record. And PAPA ROACH made a boring record. With KORN, it sounds like they tried to be more commercial and they lost their energy. Old KORN records had so much intensity. As they go on, it's the same thing — bad childhoods and mean moms. It gets old after awhile. How old is Jonathan? Thirty years old? How long has it been since he lived with his parents? Try to go somewhere else. If you're genuine and write about whatever is drawing the emotion now, you can't be fucked with."
