Does anyone else not 'get it' when it comes to Graphic Nature? I am on first listen right now, currently playing Tempest. Mind is totally blown except Graphic. It damn near killed my good mood....

Graphic feels sinister as hell to me. Nice mid temp song in the middle of the album.

Really? I mean, I'd have to say it's the only "weak" song on the record.. I still dig it, but it didn't kill my mood brotha

I like some of them and some not so much.

"Graphic Nature" grows on you. It was the last song to really grow on me. Give it a couple more plays and notice how the song sort of builds at the end. It's a moody song. The dynamics are subtle.

Rosemary should be required listening while having intercourse

Yeah.. for some reason it says the same thing for me. Says ya blocked me.. just google it. it's leaked everywhere now. not that hard to find homie.

Wow.

Rare are the instances when I can actually feel an album changing the way I look at music of its kind. They've done it before collectively with their albums but never like this, as its playing.

This is some shit from a completely different realm. I can honestly say it will render 99% of any "heavy" music I may hear from now on useless. Much the same way Aphex Twin rendered all of techno useless for me when I discovered him.

Consider me blown fucking away like the majority of you.

100% agreed.

The chorus to "Goon Squad" is a little too repetitive for my liking. Maybe it'll grow on me, maybe it won't. The song definitely has the weakest chorus on the album, in my opinion.

[samson simpson]

its tied for their top

whatever that is.


this band is great

Overall, KNY does feel like a sequel to DE, to me.

How so? DE was very simple, whereas KNY, to me, is them going in a more experimental, new direction than their previous albums. I dont get ppl calling it mainstream or commercial either. Even Chino. It's not as heavy as their other albums maybe. It's gt no songs like WGTB or something to that effect, but to me it's plenty heavy. But then I guess it depends on what you look for the most frm their music. So you dont really like the album?

LoL no kidding. It's a sequel only the sense it directly followed DE. How can such a die hard fan draw that conclusion. It has way more depth/layers than DE. DE is as straight forward rock radio friendly as they will ever get.

I didn't say they were the same records...

I just fucking LOOOVE how the outro to Rosemary plays right into the intro to Goon Squad.
I feel like some of these songs are "live" songs.. the impact would be much greater hearing them live.

wtf? my shit is broke!?!?!?!?!

early thoughts on the first half of KNY:
1. swerve city quickly turns new wave at the 1:43 mark and i love it.
2. romantic dreams might be the prequel to combat
3. leathers is so much better sequenced in the album than as a single
4. poltergeist is just an evil, evil sludge groove. like a satanic dance party.
5. entombed is just the flat out wow moment for me. cannot even believe this a deftones song.

I feel the same way about Swerve City, after my 2nd listen. Im usually pretty understanding on every deftones song but Swerve City does nothing for me. Maybe I need to sleep on it.

Sucks. Just google it though, you'll find it easily enough

I was surprised when some people were trashing teh ending of Rosemary and saying it was Steph being lazy (not even sure if its steph or chino) but i Loved it's sound, now it makes even more sense when it blends into goon squad.

Anyone else agree with me that Gauze could be a good single? It's got all elements of Deftones. Heavy, aggressive, catchy/beautiful chorus, and its melodic.
