How are the vocal melodies on the album? Is it loaded to the gills with catchiness, or are the songs too weird and abstract to make them accessible on first listen?

No, it's the former. This album is very straightforward. You can tell Chino had the reigns. This is a somewhat softer album with an emphasis on sung parts. It's very melodic but I wouldn't say it was very left field.

You have some slow heaviness on Acid Hologram, Doomed User we've all heard, and Gore. Some alt timing on Geometric Headdress. Hearts/Wires and (L)MIRL are the slow burner long tracks in the vein of Tempest/Rosemary. Xenon is a likely single. Rubicon is the most upbeat and uptempo closer they've ever done.

Lol straightforward?  Bro.....no

Surprised quite a few of the track titles are referenced in the lyrics.

Context. In terms of his vocal melodies it is.

Yeah, same here. I was noticing that too

So much going on on this album.  So many layers.  Excellent work.  This honestly might be the best album they've written and I fully mean that.

Fuuuuuuck

Hearts/Wires is a fucking masterpiece.

Both, really. Some very interesting vocal melodies that do take more than a few listens, but in a good way. It never feels jarring or like he's going against the music, it all just works.

Hearts/Wires live up to the hype?

Dude, yes. Oh my god yes.

The part on LMIRL where Chino does the "hey" is so fucking amazing.

Haven't heard the full album yet, but do you remember what songs are referenced?

100% yes! I fucking love this record.

[phil for real]

This album is so mature.  That's the best way to describe it haha.

[phil for real]

Well if they are then thank you for an incredible album.  Very impressed.  Absolutely adore this record.

The music at the beginning almost had me checking I hadn't switched shuffle on and it went to another band, haha. So un-Deftones-like. I do love the song though.

Deftones, if you're lurking, I'm sorry but I couldn't wait. I pre-ordered the album, don't worry, and thanks for another killer album.

If anyone's kind enough to pm me. I've been a member for the last 4 years.
Been following the forum far before. Bought all of their album of course.

Shit I sound like a nagging bitch.

Cheers, can't waait

Second that. Been here for a few years. Also helped send the first 3. Pls return a favor!

Sure I will if I can. So excited about the reactions.

It is tough to watch you all write about this and not be able to join the festivities.
