Koi No Yokan thread

[Rosemary]

Wanna know how you can tell if an album is great? Try picking your favorite three song run and if it constantly changes on you/for everyone you know it's solid.

I've been watching this band live since the early 90's in clubs in Cali and they never get old. From the first moment I heard Adrenaline to this experience of hearing Koi for the first several times I am blown away. Few bands in history leave a legacy of music that can stand the test of time while also being unique to a bands sound. Sure they have evolved over the years and so have I but no matter the time they constantly touch the meaningful parts of my soul. I have another username on here somewhere but lost all my login info etc so I re-registered with this name because after a dozen or so listens I think Rosemary may very well be their opus. Don't get me wrong Root is my favorite track ever and Adrenaline will always be my favorite but somehow this track sums up EVERYTHING I have every experienced while following this band.

Hats off to the boys they have proven themselves to be one of the greatest bands of the past twenty years and warrant a spot somewhere with the greatest ever.

Deftones for LIFE!

Much love

Experience is very different of a listener in music each one here has other opinions wich is oke im fine with the new material but nothing can bash White Pony imo.

Have fun .

I wonder why they put the "Explicit Content" sign on the CD. I can't think of anything explicit in that album

"I think your head's fucked". "How the fuck you do it?". I'm pretty sure that's it lol none of their other albums have the explicit content sign, do they? Certainly none of mine, even Adrenaline. That's weird.

my cd copy of snw and d.e have it. i know there's a clean version of snw where some curses on rats are muted and of course all the butt sex talk in the end of pink cellphone aren't there. also, on my white pony LP there's a explicit content sign

[Sett]

Oh, yeah, right. Besides KNY I have the explicit content on the DE only. And my SNW has the censored version of Pink Cellphone. I guess the lyrics of all other albums are clean then ? Weird, never thought of that.

[from_musings]

on the real version of rats he sings "i wouldn't say nothing, nothing not a fucking thing".
but there's also a clean version where they mute the word "fucking" .. it's sounds horrible

Poltergeist and Graphic Nature are the Explicit Songs.

Any of the recent album have the explicit content sticker on it, they tricked on White Pony because they changed lyrics in the book so they made faux but chino said something that sounds more like fuck.

DE has Rocket Skates as Explicit Song because obviously "fuck with me" is harsh and won't be misinterpreted. SNW had a clean issue but has pink cellphone, rats!(x3) and rapture for obviously racist lyrics from annie in pink cellphone regarding british people and rapture hasn't been interpreted as a family term at all lol.
S/T was heavy as a whole but they didn't have really lyrics that go in that department, ATF is about the same with the metaphorbic style. Adrenaline I just don't know why they haven't rated it, maybe it was quite gibberish to really judge the lyrics, when I checked them out I was like really how can he sound so different from the actual text. I'm not sure but I think the booklet had clean lyrics and therefore wasn't subject to listening judgebuilding at the time.

I am glad they did that, it would have been a crime to ruin that cover with the label.

[M1GHTY M4VS]

according to wiki something from ATF that would account to the earliers aswell
"
While the lyrics are in the booklet, not every single word is printed. A good example is the song "Lhabia" where in the verses, Chino Moreno whispers statements that are hard to make out. There is also one verse missing from the song "Headup".

The CD has a clean version, although it was not sold with a Parental Advisory sticker.

its funny how so many people shit on SNW and Adrenaline...I have this theory, that if you hate Adrenaline and SNW and think Diamoned Eyes is a mastrpiece, you arent a real Deftones fan...Probably just another white pony poser who hopped on board thanks to 'digital bath'....

and btw, KNY has grown on me, its def bettere than DE...but not in the same league as 95-2003 era

[Defrichtones]

I got the ful downloadlink about an hour ago yes its complete

well yeah I hate it especially on movies but some atleast give you swapcovers inside so you can avoid that, we in Germany have Age Ratings about 1/4 CD Size on the covers, the parental sign in the liberal US is quite sublime.

[Defrichtones]

Explicit lyric content stickers are removed before opened by me .

[SomeOf]

Damone is awful? Fuck off dude, no way you're a deftones fan.

I dont like Damone either. I dont think it's awful, but I think Damone and Head Up are the only two Deftones songs that I never listen to. But some songs frm Adrenaline have only just clicked for me, so maybe in the future they will too.

Please !! Try again !!

wow bro you are so cool

[Drummerboy_123]

In the lyrics booklet, in graphic nature it says

"How are u trained?"

Grammar error.

Someone must've been doing some texting before writing the lyrics haha.

Also today, I programmed the drums to Entombed cause I've been bored as fuck

I love Koi No Yokan, a lot. I saw that some people were saying they skip over Swerve City. I think that song's a fucking banger. The melody in the verses is so cool, I love the vibrato Chino does when he says "voices." It sounds sweet!

Gauze is probably my favorite song right now.

Ya, I guess swerve didnt live up to some people's expectations.  Its not the best track in the world, but I think its a good opener.  I dont find any track to be a skipper.
