Gore

[rainnyx4]

LOL @ KNY not expanding their sound. There were so many things that they did on that album that they had never done before.

If you don't like the album that's fine. But at least come up with something that makes sense for why you don't like it.

So I'm curious to know...

How many of you on SL are jealous of the fact that I've yet to hear any of this album, and will do so for the first time in gleaming, screaming high-quality audio?

Im not jealous. I too am yet to hear the mysterious beast that is music from our sac skater boys.

but slowly dying with anticipation. i guess i may be jealous of you're projected calmness about the situation.

You won't survive

I grew up on 10th generation and worse punk rock demos so not having a pristine copy of Gore is ok for a few days.  I had the mixdown demo of get your goat about a month before it came out and didn't care about sound quality, it was great. Not to mention zillions of live shows & sub par demos.  I'm ok with roughing it

I was until I stopped myself from listening to the shitty rip anymore, and I can hardly remember any of it. Except i've heard P/T and Doomed numerous times so I guess that's not the same. It'll still all be fresh to me though at least. You're ballsy though letting all the reviews hype it up for you so much. Hopefully you can enjoy it after all this lol

I actually went to my local JBhifi this morning. And desperately asked if Gore was available. I expressed i was very sad that every store i had been too had been sold out. I tried to trick the sales kid, by saying the friday release date is for amercia and he must have been given the wrong information.

Didn't work out as planned. So i may go back with a beanie and condoms later tonight after dark...

sorry i mean a beanie and bolt cutters....

[NYRexall]

What I need to do is go to the hardware store, buy a decent-sized piece of plexiglass, tack it to my music room wall, write the word GORE in black marker at the bottom, and spend the next three days re-reading the last 48 hours of this thread since the leak while I create one of those complex math formula things outlining all the comparisons, influences, visions, opinions, etc. people have expressed here

Color-coded and everything..

Omigod, this is the best part! Building my anticipation to a fever pitch here at SL before the album is released is a fucking Deftones tradition for me, lol

As a manager at an NJ Target I feel like I'll have a hard time not risking my job to get at this tomorrow

I am man, wish I could've been that strong. So weak when it come to Deftones. But.. Friday will still be amazing. Cannot wait for full quality.

Oh believe me, mate...looks can be deceiving

I'm basically on...uh, pins and needles, just like you for this shit

I did the same thing! I think we're virtually the same age, perhaps you being a tad bit older than me since your STT fandom predates mine.

But yea, this waiting is killing me. I know it will all be well worth it though

[Lurid Vega]

NYRexall I am excited for you.

Exactly. I grew up on cassettes people mostly recorded for me. I understand though and I'm sure it will be awesome.
Enjoy.

I can't wait to hear this in all its majesty either.

Whoever mentioned remembering a somewhat standard 96 and 128kbps quality way back, funny I was just thinking about that. I think one of the first times I heard Deftones was a 96kbps rip of Engine #9 from some fan site or something, Napster & Kazaa and all those weren't even around yet. Then in middle school, I was that dude telling everyone "dude you got the 128kbps, that's bad quality man" or "this is a demo" and no one gave a shit lol. It was all the same to everyone else. I'm not even sure I ever remember seeing any lossless around back then, or very very rarely at least. Anyone remember the extremely shitty RealMedia files? Really tiny video stream, shit quality lol. Good times.. Cassette dubbing was fun as hell too

[all3n_y]

Seems like a decent amount of people have Pittura more towards the bottom in their ranking list. Why is that?? What is it about the song some of you are not feeling?  I haven't listened to the album yet so I'm just curious.

NYRexall I am excited for you.

Me too. You have been reading all this praise for days now so I hope it lives up to the hype for you! Are you holding out for a good rip or until Friday?

Hey man I'm really interested in specifics of the quality of this vinyl.
I really want to listen to the thing in full tonight, because I'm traveling tomorow. Tonight was the night I thought a good quality rip would surface haha my bad.

Are there distortions? Sound clipping? Cuts of any of the songs? Is the bass completely missing in some parts?
Or is it just really compressed or something.

Thoughts?
