I'd say there are a few songs on DE that are just as good if not better.

As much as I'm enjoying this song, one thing does concern me about it: the chorus.  The chorus is definitely better here than on the song Diamond Eyes, but it's a little too similar in that it's so very commercial.  I quite enjoy the chorus, I just REALLY hope there will be a lot of variation in the choruses of KNY and there's not many like this one.

Here comes the hyperbole crew. No way is this better than Royal. No way.

Not hyperboling, just saying what I think. Don't you start, bro.

And I'm just saying what I think. :)

I'll agree with the comments about how it sounds like SNW, and Combat specifically... the vocals more-so than the music, but even the music has a SNW vibe to it.
Check out my soundcloud/ facebook page with some music...

This is honestly better than ANYTHING on Diamond Eyes to me. I don't like the chorus, though.
you will say you hate this song in time... i guarantee it

Vesanic

I'd say Royal is better overall, as a whole song. But the verses of Leathers are fucking killer.

I just noticed right now. Leathers was uploaded to SoundCloud 2 days ago.. those crafty bastards :P Making the song private made us unable to see it :p

Could be. I did like Diamond Eyes at first so you never know.

It is much more Diamond Eyes to me.  Because of the chorus mainly.  And the thicker guitars.  Makes it hard not to compare it to DE.

wayyyyy more diamond eyes than SNW

Vesanic

I find the chorus pretty fucking awful. Verses are killer.

It sounds like Jared Letbro, the most mad alt man in the universe. We can never be so alt, so we can never steal his chorus.

bewareofrats

I hope there isn't going to be so much thick chuggy guitar on this as DE.  More SNW melodies please.

that intro threw me off!! I was expecting mid-tempoi-sh spacey jam,. BUT DAMN!!

You know, it's not even the melody of the chorus that I dislike. I just don't like how high-pitched Chino's voice is during it. Still, it's a good song. Not their best, but good.

Rosemary > Poltergeist > Leathers

I'm not even sure he'll be able to pull that off live.

the chorus would be sick without that 'everything outside you" line. that self titled sound will not come back by the way

lol

Drop-Dead

The strangest Deftones song ever, it sounds nothing like them, but know what?...I'm diggin it!

this chorus is hell not as catchy. thats the problem, its doesn't have the memorability the term "HOOK" implies. also the intro; just a half-step thing.. pretty dull.
