PALMS [new Chino Moreno side project]

[Bifrost]

People expecting heaviness from Palms are going to be disappointed. Harris has already said in interviews that the album isn't that heavy. Maybe there will be moments, but if you're looking for something that is really metal, look elsewhere. It should also be noted that the guys from Isis were writing the music for Palms before Chino came on board, so I think a lot of it was their decision to do something softer.

By the way, I'm not disappointed by Tropics because it's a softer song. Chino has done so many amazing soft songs in his career. Too many to count. Unfortunately, Tropics just isn't one of them. I actually dig the music (even if it isn't the most complex thing the Isis guys ever written and is also aping Team Sleep), but his voice is just weak on it and the lyrics are far from his best. Maybe the final version of the song will sound better.

I like it, not blown away but its chill I'm enjoying it... definitely has that Teamsleep vibe to it, just minus Zachs manic drums

I am curious what the whole album will be like, I think it will be better than crosses judging from this

I miss the old Chino, when he did drugs, his creativity was high! Now, he just sucks...

the happy chino is really non productive, i hope his wife cheat on him, just imagine that album!!!!

[Inkblades]

LOL that's fucked up.

[DeftonesNZ]

LOL that's fucked up.

Very fucked up and I don't think that guy knows what productive means I'd rather not have 3 years between albums again.

[Inkblades]

I know. In the last three years, Chino has given us two new Deftones albums, two EP's from Crosses and now an album from Palms. That's the exact opposite of a tardy work ethic.

Dont hate the track, it sounds unpolished. It wouldnt be the first time Chino put something online before it was "done". Either that or its a demo that didnt make the album. I'm fine with either one.

[Slacker]

when the unmastered versión of team sleep came out, we all loved it.

i like this song. i love it actually.

[beasty]

Maybe they are lowering our expectations on purpose.

[Martin]

Found the track. Pretty damn cool! Looking forward to hearing the finished version, and the record as a whole. Nice!

Well I like it a shitload better than Crosses. Soft, soothing and melodic. I hope we get something more than this though. If every song sounds just like this, it might end up a pretty dull record. I'm excited though.

I don't necessarily hate the track either, I'm praying like hell that once the album actually hits it will deliver. So far just not impressed by the work of everyone involved. Deeply disappointed in the guys from Isis as well as Chino.

i kiss you goodbye
then release in the sky
i stare in your core
as you rise from the shore

it goes by........
over the sand
into the light
over the sea
the waves go by
under the sun
back to the land
into the night
between your hands

relax in the tide
felt a breeze going by
over ahead...
you display with your dance

it goes back...
over the sand
into the land
over the sea
the waves go by
under the sun
and back to the land
into the night
between your hands

you try to contain it
it shoots out through your hands

i kiss you goodnight
let your face to the light
the taste of your tell
is the key to your spell

it goes by
over the sand
into the land
over the sea
the waves go by
under the sun
back to the land
into the line between your hand

you try to contain it
but showing love with your
i found it in the wake of your tide
tracking the bass of your stride
lying in the wake of your trail
caught up in the waves of your spell
lying in the wake of your trail
caught up in the waves of your spell
yes it's true
