I don't trust that douchebag. People who write for metal magazines have never understood Deftones.


Haha, love your skepticism. You are right though, 90% of the time the journalist for metal mags and other publishers usually are a bunch of fruit cakes who have no sincere liking to the tones' nor a well versed understanding  to properly interview and review Deftones news and new material.

Well he's heard it, we don't have an opinion on it yet. At least he said something we didn't know. I watched another clip where they discussed Deftones and I think two of them have pretty much been fans and following them since the 90s. There's nothing to 'understand', Deftones is different to everyone, the lyrics are completely interpretable as well as the music. I hate this notion that we are somehow a cut above everyone.

Man, I really hate the chorus in Rosemary. They should just cut the boring one chord for 30 minutes shit. Didn't work on Beauty School. Doesn't work now.

What don't you like about the chorus?

as a producer it really irks me when people call overdubs a cover. 

As a grade A douchebag, it really irks me when people call someone playing along on a guitar an overdub.

It is 100% anti-climactic shit with no drive or momentum. It's like they suddenly go into reverse. Same thing in Beauty School.

DEFTONES -Rosemary (guitar overdub) just sounds strange to me.. I did my take on it, so I consider that a cover. Same with millions of other people who post videos of them playing their instruments along with songs on the net.  I just tagged as that so the viewer instantly knows what they're watching.

Really? Even Chino's monotonous singing? It's like a two tone lullaby for people who can't sing. Don't get me wrong, I like the rest of the song. But the chorus just rubs me the wrong way.

The chorus is just beautiful, I noticed about 'one tone part' but the vocal work and the back vocals are just amazing, Vega did a great work there. The lyrics are amazing, maybe one of the most beauty and lovely parts I've heard from Chino, the "stay with me, as we cross the earth to skyes" works a lot for me.

BTW, I think KNY will be the Dark Side Of The Moon of the Deftones, really believe the intro of Rosemary and the outro belongs to Gauze and Goon Squad respectively, and these kind of connections create a great atmosphere.

I see your point, I like it because it has space in it. I felt like the Tempest and Leather chorus' felt a bit too busy vocally. This one sounds less radio friendly and a bit more unconventional. Maybe its its a case of less is more in my opinion.

I think it's the other way around. People like you, or i should say like us, are totally BIASED, because we know what we want of a deftones record, and have decided what is a good deftones record before hand, and we judge a new album with that biased view.
I personally thrust more the opinion on someone that never heard deftones than fanboys like you guys.

Haha i love that bald guy in the vid. "I'd take Saturday Night Wrist right up my arse"

Who knows what song he was talking about, maybe Dazzle/Entombed or Swerve City?
