I cant put my finger on it but the ending of Gauze reminds me of another song by stone sour or down-open coffins.

The beginning sounds like Staind.

haha thats harsh

Does anyone feel like Abe was holding back on this album?  I guess maybe because I have Graphic Nature playing right now.  It just seems like he could have really made that song shine and he keeps pretty much playing the same thing over and over.  I would have liked to hear him show out more.

I don't know. Some of his kick patterns are pretty nuts.

Yep agree... I noticed that too, Specially in parts of swerve city and Poltergeist i think

HOW THE FUCK YOU DO ITTTTTT!!!???

Yeah i know what you mean about Abe...maybe just mix it up a tad on Graphic Nature! But i think he allowed to have a lazy track once in a while

as a drummer, I'd like to point out that the drums in Graphic Nature are pretty busy. I'd also like to point out that they're very very similar to those in Digital Bath.

Yes, the kick patterns are on point. Hard to predict, his drumming is top notch. I would like for him to do a little things different on a couple tracks, but its not big deal. He's the shit, and his drums sound amazing on KNY (as usual)

I agree. Even though he's doing the same rhythm throughout for the most part, it's busy and very tedious to maintain.
Listen for those high hat openings.. he does a fantastic job, as always.

Has anyone listened to this record while fucked up yet? I have only listened to it while completely sober. Didn't one person say they were going to listen to it on shrooms? Kinda curious as to what that experience was like.

Is that really necessary?

All the cool kids are doing it, square.

Nope but I am quite fucked up right now so I'll listen to the self-titled.

They do suck but that opening riff sounds like something off of Dysfunction.

Ok so just completed first listen. I really don't think I can judge yet. It's quite a drastic departure from any of their previous stuff I think. I think Chino is partially a weak link here on first listen; his vocals are almost quite generic, and considering he's got such a unique voice thats quite odd.

I think i'm going to have to give it some more listens. Nothing particulary stands out for me at the moment as 'WOW'. Goon Squad did get my head nodding, Steph's riff is quite monstrous. I feel Chino had a lot of influence over the sound of this record. I can here snippets of his influences coming through; some cure on certain tracks.

I agree with the too polished sound too, theres too much compression.

Why did they decide to change from Terry Date by the way ?

I think What Happened To You / Rosemary / Goon Squad are probably stand outs for me at the moment if I had to name some.

Anyone notice that Deftones posted on their facebook a link to listen to the album in it's entirety? Guess since it leaked they figured, fuck it - why not.

Also there will be a meet and greet/party with the band that night at Good Records in Dallas, TX on 11/13 CD Release party.

Probably because it's leaked so close to the release date, they preferred to let ppl listen to it on their terms rather than illegally downloading it (if they hadnt already).

I think I owe Ves an apology. Thought it was laughable to call this a sequel to DE, but now I'm hearing it. In my defense he did have the album before me

But the more I listen the more I pick up the pop sensibilities of DE combined with the texture/atmosphere and experimentation of WP. Kind of like the two records fucked and KNY is the end result.

Some people pick up on SNW. Maybe. I won't go that far cause I don't care for SNW.

I was hoping for a WP 2.0 but I lowered my expectations. I mean how many albums can take a song like teenager and another like elite and have it make sense?

Overall I think it will be third fav deftones album but second most listened to. Graphic Nature has become my favorite along with Rosemary.

In conclusion, sorry Ves.
