OP is incorrect.  Album font is better.  The photos are great.  Live they are better than ever.  I am right.  You are wrong.  Life changes.  Magic is still there.

I fucking love Neil Degrasse Tyson.

Look.. I said this in the other thread, too.  Deftones hasn't lost anything.  Chino's much healthier now, and he's getting older.. sure he's not taking his pants off and he's not fucked up on stage anymore..  But despite their loss in shock value, his voice has seriously gotten BETTER and although I was slightly disappointed with DE I was not at all pissed about it.  I love that they're doing what they're doing based on where they are now.  They've got the whole Chi thing going on now and that reflects onto DE.  I bet the next album will fucking rock, just like every other one of their albums has in their own way, and honestly if you don't like it then live in the past.  Not trying to flame but, what else are you going to do?  Either progress with the band, or get stuck in time thinking about "a better era."  I, for one, plan to progress.

Maybe it still depends on the show?  I saw them earlier this year and thought they sounded better than the other times I saw them ('03, '05).  I'm a huge fan of Diamond Eyes though, so that could've had some influence on it.

But fuck, you guys.  I think Deftones are and will remain my favorite band for the forseeable future, but all this nitpicking is pretty melodramatic, not to mention futile.  I mean there's nothing wrong with criticizing their shortcomings, but just think of what Metallica fans have been through with their once-good band, and appreciate that Deftones haven't devolved into fucking trash like that when you're gauging them as a whole.

I think the deftones should only play material from their most recent album, or completely new material. They seem to have more exciting/passionate performances when they do.

I don't know, man. When they play Dai, BQAD, MOS, Digital Bath, etc, they always seem to be pretty into it.

You're entitled to your opinion. I just feel like things are a bit more special and exciting the first time around. Kinda like the first time you jerked off, or smoked some good crack. You just don't know how you, or ,in the case of the deftones, the audience is going to react. And if they love it it's all the more special.

Sorry for the fucked up grammar and/or punctuation. Couldn't quite figure out how to put that last part correctly.

in american idol, the finalists probably can sing shitty songs well and do it with a lot off passion, but still it's shitty songs so we don't like to hear or watch it.
so - it's not all about singing and dancing proberly. if a rock star singer performed, sang a cool song a little off key but owned the stage amyway and then peed on the judges - we would appreciate that rock n roll performance better than the other singers that hit all notes. to me the magic is in the latter example


I'm not sure if you are trying to disagree with me. I'm a little to girthy for you to be arguing with me.

Entitled to my opinion ? That's not my point. I'm one of those people who think they lost that passion, that special something but still I see they're still pretty much into it when they play the old songs. But yeah, I know what you mean. ATF songs sounded the best on the ATF tour, WP songs sounded the best on the WP tour, etc.

Your vision makes sense but then what, they should play songs of an album on the tour of the said album and then never again because, as you imply, it's not really worth it ?

downtownpony

honestly yes. It's the only thing I've looked forward to the past 5 or so times I've seen them.

Although when they change shit up I like it. Those 09 performances were quite badass. Especially Beware at pukklepop and WGTB at that South American show. I guess I just can't make my mind up.

the hottest girl in the world


i met her in a club many years ago and i could not take my eyes of her
she filled me up with adrenaline and i wanted to touch her fur
she was the hottest chick in place i died when i heared her moan
i was swinging to her rhythm  swinging to her voice swinging to her every tone

and then she came up to me took me on a trip with her big white horse
and i sucked her breath and was falling in love to the hottest girl in the world

she left me in a club many years ago drugged out and despaired
i missed her voice so bad i could not take my thoughts from her
she was the hottest chick on earth and i would have died to hear her moan
i was missing her rhythm missing her voice missing her every tone

but then she came to me took me on a trip with her great hesparian death horse
and i sucked her breath addicted to the most hottest girl in the world

and since then every saturday night i am out with her to drown
in rhythms voices screamings moans guitar riffs scratches and sounds
i look into her her diamond eyes and my skin is blood soaked and pearled
you can never take away from me the hottest girl in the world

I'm not talking about you specifically, dude. Besides, you didn't say die, I know, die in that context would mean go somewhere else, you know what I mean ?
Gotcha V. Just felt misunderstood there and it happens through punching keys, man. I'm definetely not the pissed off type! lol I know that when Jane's Addiction dropped "Strays", it was just plain boring for me anymore and instead of trolling a forum and talking about it I just moved on. Was the most logical thing to do because I don't live under a rock with nothing else to turn to, that's all man. Sorry, shit happens guys. Didn't mean to be a dickhead.
Pushing you back but still you ain't goooooooooone!!!!!!

We all love deftones no matter what and yes sometimes they make bad decisions that piss us  off, but as Fans speak your mind don't be a pussy don't worship everything they do, speak up what u fucking like or dislike, to many pussy asses :o around here deftonesworld we need to do a clean up

how about we start with you. not everyone can agree with your post, so you resort to insults?
I know, what a boner if I'm a pussy. I'll eat your pussy. And then ask u wtf r u talking about - "deftonesworld we need to do a cleanup". That's enough from me here on this topic. Thank you, for letting me state my positive opinion deftonesworld. Didn't realize deftonesworld "does cleanups".
Pushing you back but still you ain't goooooooooone!!!!!!

the hottest girl in the world pt 2

I asked her what her name was, she told me it was Beth
I said to her let's get out of here, you know this place is death
She made me feel so lucky just to be alive
and When we reached my car she said just be quiet and drive

I drove off in my street carp 100 miles per hour
I said to her ''hang on tight babe'' Beware! the fucking power!
Then from out of nowhere something ran across my path
And all at once the scene became a digital blood bath!

Beth got out of the car and walked up to the front
All of a sudden I heard her scream ''You stupid fucking cunt!''
I looked and realised, well it's just my luck of course
I had made roadkill of her hysperian death horse

I'll never forget that night when I heard those seven words
The night that she told me ''you killed my horse you stupid turd''
And then my passenger said to me ''you need to go back to school''
She told me it was so  I could learn, how not to be a tool

And when we got back to my place we made a sextape as the night unfurled
and she sucked my cock and i was falling in love with the hottest girl in the world

And since then when I drive her home I'm much more careful of course
I'd crawl into a hole in the earth if I hit another horse

we are such poets
someone needs to make a real song out of this

pinkmaggit

hehe  :D - Bill Shakespeare would be proud.
And now for:

The Hottest Girl in The World Pt 3


Years later I asked if she'd come away with me
In cherry waves the ship sailed us out to sea
She asked me in which direction the ship I would steer
I said to her we're going to the boy's republic of korea

We sailed away to make a life in a new foreign land
She said to me ''we'll be ok, our life is in God's hands
She said to me, wer'e freaks, this is no ordinary love
She gave answers to my life, it was Rapture from above.

I asked her to marry me, she said ''Are you fireal''
Of course is what I said to her, now do we have a deal?
We had a litte baby boy, he was our little Prince.
Beth wanted to name the boy Damone, we settled on Vince.

I couldn't help but think lucky you on how life unfurled
I thought back to the club where I met the hottest girl in the world

And I often think back on how my life had found this course
It all began that night when I gave a deathblow to a horse


Come on Mothraw, your turn, don't let the story die!

mothraw

i don`t think i could top this....
....end of story....

.sorry ;D

to crawl away from the discussion isn't very girthy? :)
