It's a good song for them to potentially get some more radio play (I know that isn't important anymore) but I could deffo see BBC 6 Music here in the UK playing Ohms, Mary Anne Hobs usually plays Deftones tracks on her daytime show

I can more or less picture why this song is the album's closer. It has some sort of "epilogue" feel to it, if that makes any sense.

the only thing i'm disappointed is the fact it's the album closer. I usually prefer my closer to be longer, more epic and anthemic. But i love the song, if everything else is of. the same quality, I'll be happy.

I'm really digging this. As with most things Deftones - it sounds like Deftones. But it doesn't quite sound the same as anything else they've done. They're one of the few bands out there that does well to evolve their sound while still sounding like themselves and not alienating their existing fanbase.

It's alright. Not that big of a fan of the bubbly guitar riff.

I created an account  just so I could say yeeeeeessss love it when Mary Anne Hobbs plays a Deftones tune in the afternoon! Always loads of love for it on Twitter.

I've been really enjoying following the hype on here this week, keep it up you funny bunch! Counting down til midnight BST!

hah, i just realized, I should be seeing Deftones tonight in Jersey. I guess a new single is an ok 2nd place trophy  :-\

The guitar in This song reminds me a little bit of some CKY. Think "flesh into gear" or maybe even "96 quite bitter beings".
When people whisper it makes her nervous.

I was thinking more of Pink Maggit, but yeah.

Ok guys, all this talk about it sounding like "S/T era" is hyping the fuck out of me.  Shit, having to wait till tomorrow will suck!
Always the same old taste, just a new injury...

How does Abe make a song bounce so effortlessly? He's so fucking good.
I could float here forever

Pink Maggit forever will reign supreme as best album closer, but can we get some love for Rivière? I hardly see anyone talk about that song and I absolutely love it.

song didn't click on first listen, kind of reminds me of pittura infamente which is a big meh. we'll see in a month when i hear it again after following 9 other songs

I've felt the same,with more listenings is getting better for me though.

Exactly what I thought, like a faster CKY riff. Used to listen to a lot of them back in the day and it totally gave me those vibes. But he used to play his guitar with only 4 strings   ;D

It honestly doesn't sound much like S/T era to my ears. Not to kill your hype, it's a good song, just don't go into it with any expectations! I'm having a hard time drawing comparisons to past albums in general honestly, this very much sounds like it's own thing to me.

Iwazaru

Gotta admit, the song is growing on me. I expect it to be a pleasant final track once I'll be listening to the whole thing from start to finish.

Gaz

It's more KNY sounding for me

I wouldn't say the song sounds like anything off of self-titled, but other songs from the album? Possibly maybe probably

Yeah, I guessed

Rubicon is epic tho, underated just like Gore as a whole.
