I hear the same exact chords in Spell of mathematics as the ending of UUDDSelectStart of SNW Or Konami Code whatever u wanna call .. they are identical. Not complaining . It's perfect. What a song!!

UUDDSelectStart is literally my fave song by them so I was hoping there'd be something somewhat on par with that. TSOM did not disappoint.

Is anyone  else kinda put off by sections of the vocals? It's like the only thing keeping it from being a 10/10 for me. Particularly the starts of Urantia, Error, Radiant City, and Headless. Just feels like they're spoken/sung in an odd cadence and melody in each of them and then the rest of the song works.

Only complaint really. Ceremony, This Link is Dead, and Ohms are my favorites followed closely by TSOM, Pompeji, and Headless. Overall fantastic album

Also the end of "headless" sounds very similar to the end of "prince"
And all the days I've missed you 🍂

There's some odd cadence moments, yeah. Beginning of Ceremony comes to mind

There Will Be Blood

I don't mind pulling off wings and laughing if anyone F's up.

Sergio really shines on a lot of this

Which is honestly a mix of his ability and contribution and the production being top notch

If you asked me my top five songs on SNW, DE, KNY and Gore, I could easily give you a list.

As of right now, I don't think I can choose with Ohms. There's too many stand out songs. That's how you know it's a highly consistent album.

To be fair, part of that is probably that it's still so fresh and discovering the layers to the songs, digesting them, etc. At least that's how it is for me, my ritual for every album is "THIS IS THE BEST THING THEY'VE EVER DONE" for a few weeks lol.

Pompeji is definitely my favourite now along with Ceremony and Urantia. And TSOM has grown on me a lot, I can appreciate what people were saying. Still not right up there for me, but an awesome song.

Not for me. I agree there are parts of songs that have a quite unique melody or cadence to them, but for me they're part of what I think is making this album so amazing.

I think it's safe for me to say that Ceremony, Pompeji, Urantia and Spell are going to be in my favorites out of all their albums.

There are certain elements of this album that remind me of Faith No More's Angel Dust album.  The song "Crack Hitler" popped in my head while I was listening to TLID.  I guess it's the dichotomy of the mellow/heavy  parts flowing throughout the album.  It's like if Ohms went on Ancestry.com, it would find out that Angel Dust was it's great grandfather.

Yes sir it is... same with spell.

Vanby

Now I just want to get into a toxic relationship and dump her eventually so I can listen to Ceremony and have it hit different.

I take back earlier comments, *this* is my favorite new track. Honestly possibly one of my all time Deftones favs (early to call it though)
Battle-Axe already conjures up memories of a very specific ex for me lol

After a few listens I have no desire to skip a single second, not even the singles I've already heard a bunch.

I'm sure it's been asked, but I must've missed it:
For those of us who Pre-ordered, will we be sent a link at 12am on release date? Does anyone know?

That is a good ass question... in my previous experience with preorders, no. I can recall another album that I had to download elsewhere because the link was not in my inbox at midnight. I could be wrong about this one. Not sure when they consider it time to send out the links tbh

Cheers mate. Hoping I can at least hear a good quality version on the 25th.
I actually recall one preorder vinyl (can't remember which one) physically turning up on it's release date. Clearly that's not happening here.
