I think my honeymoon phase with Gore might be ending.  :'( Oh, it was sweet while it lasted.

ok.. so what's the verdict, 6/10?

We've just played it out. I was listening to pretty much nothing else for a few weeks there.

Yeah, i let a friend borrow it for the weekend so I could take a break. I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss it though haha.

I've only just started listening to other music like an hour ago, and even so, I'm sitting here with my music on shuffle annoyed that nothing from Gore has popped up, haha. Don't know about a score out of 10, but it's third for me, after White Pony and self-titled.

shuffle list?other music? gore should be listened to as journey from start to finish... this has been stated many times by chino in interviews. so what's up?

Haha. I didn't have my shuffle on for Gore, I listened to it repeatedly from beginning to end. But now that I'm listening to other music, it's back on shuffle, where I'm regretting it because Gore isn't popping up. So I don't think my honeymoon phase is completely over.

i think it's ok though... like any relationship..."absence makes the heart grow fonder"

I keep switching between Gore and Earl Sweatshirt.. That kid has some sick music.. I always go back to him lol
Was it like it seemed?...

A week on from release and I'm still really happy with this album. It's not got the immediate "fuck yeah" that Around The Fur has or the breathtaking brilliance of White Pony; it's just a really lovely album. I think Gore is another 9/10 record, which is becoming their forte now, and what's more it's a definitively better record than the previous two, as good as DE and KNY are. The fact that this band are eight albums in and still putting out one of the best releases of the year speaks volumes for how brilliant they are.

At this point, I've stopped accepting even the possibility that they'll ever make a bad record - it's just never going to happen.
I could float here forever

I don't share the same opinion as theneedledrop. I like gore.
But this totally smack the pseudo hadcore fucktards Deftones fans!
These goofy, morons usually come with comments as "Consider quality over quantity" or when someone compares a band/lead singer to Deftones/Chino " he's DEFINITELY not as creative as Chino, not in a billion parallel universes." LMFAO @ the mark 08:44.. But the whole review smack these awful fans, they just suck dick, seriously though. you stupid schmuck.

You digging the new Autolux? It was a grower, but a very solid album

Hey bro, sorry, I got busy didn't realize you posted till today, um really, I like the whole album in general, love the riffs on Acid Hologram, I think they are fucking dope! saw the performances on yt from jimmy, Chino was on q, I really like how he handled Prayers/Triangles...

This is why they are my favorite band, they never disappoint, every new album is it's own, they don't recycle their sound, they put effort in to their art and I appreciated that... all good with you I hope man.  peace.

Left my feelings on his review at the top of the comments under 'klojinum'.

Where to start...

Rather than give a legitimate review, you've let your listening be tempered by the pressure to review it.

You don't truly elaborate on any of the passages bar the guitars on Acid Hologram. I mean, I like Sunn 0))), but you talk about the fucking layers of sound on their tracks in great detail even though they're playing a single note for 8 minutes. Naturally that's a joke, but there's an alarming grain of truth in it.

You didn't explain why you dislike the melodies or the instrumental writing, comment on the drums or bass at all other than to complain about the 'overall' production.

You spent most of the review slamming the fans of the band, making absolutely irrelevant comparisons to bands like Staind, and talking about 'Nu-Metal' like Deftones were ever a part of it - rather than being misfortunately surrounded by it.

You've rubbished the context of the songs as 'melodrama' without really divulging what makes you feel that way and the point comes across more like you simply don't like it for being 'downbeat'. If there even was a point made.

What is the fucking point in waiting for you to critique an album that's worth at least talking about seriously, in between months of damned Pop and Hip Hop reviews of albums with absolutely fuck all to say for themselves?

Gore isn't exactly my favourite album, S/T will remain the peak of their emotional resonance for me, and as others have said, I'm fine with people disliking the album. On the few forums I frequent I've been quicker to speak to the people who were unhappy with the album than the sycophants who loved it purely because it was 'Deftones'. The album took three listens to gel with me and my first listen was incredibly underwhelming though I've come to like it since. According to you however, I can't ascertain 'quality'? I can't take that seriously. We're talking about the band that wrote songs like 'Knife Prty'.

I've seen hardcore Deftones fans reveal their great disappointment with more reserve and dignity than this. This video marks the point for me where you've stopped doing 'reviews' and just spat childish shit about the intended audience because you were in a bad mood when you listened to it.

Is that supposed to be a review?

Also, the Prayers/Triangles video looks like an iPod commercial.


It's exactly what it is. They're Apple clients now too.
