Im not the only one that believes TLID is likely for their fanbase:

"I have no patience for expectation" screams vocalist Chino Moreno toward the end of TLID, a track toward the end of the new Deftones album, Ohms. The line doubles as a charged lyric in a song in which he also screams "Im filled with true hatred" and as a rallying cry for his band, which for years has navigated the perilous line between it's own creative vision and what it's fanbase wants - or, more to the point, "expects". - Rock Cellar Magazine

When i mentioned it, someone here refused to believe it to the point they seemed aggrivated with me about it  ;D but then, what else is it about then? Btw, its the only track i still cant listen all the way through still

I think I get where you are coming from. However I just can't believe the band is filled up with true hate for its fan base and it's opinions. Not sure they care that much lol
One last Thing...You Should Beware the Content!!

Has anyone tried making mix with Gore & Ohms? I get the feel like like maybe i'd appreciate some of the Gore songs more if they were mixed with the Ohms tracks.  Or I'll end up hating Ohms for it haha.

Gaz

I replaced TLID with WGTB, works for me!

LG95

I'm calling there not being a next single from the album.
I could float here forever

I'm not taking it literally and I don't think it's meant literally. I think it's just the way he expressed it it don't really matter to me as I said it's all good

Did the zine come on its own ? Ordered the vinyl / zine w/shorts, hoodie and 2 x t-shirts but the zine turned up today in an envelope. No vinyl or any of the others yet.

I'm still waiting on the vinyl and zine. I'm sure they'll turn up one day.

Only thing it would confirm is what everyone's second favorite song is. Spell would win (Dont 100% agree with that but I wouldn't be mad)

No man, it came all together and I packed the magazine inside the vinyl package carefully.

Far away

Unpopular opinion: the lyrics to "This Link Is Dead" are likely NOT some sort of juvenile message from the band to fans regarding fans' expectation of Deftones music.

I'm not into this song myself. I don't think it's horrible per se. My theory about what the lyrics mean is with almost any Chino lyrics. I think it's tongue-in-cheek thos time around and at the same time it's for us to believe what we want it is to believe like usual...and the way he wrote it, I believe it was designed for some to think that it meant that or whatever you want it to be. I think it's really easy for someone to look at the lyrics while listening to it and believe that's what it's about because people do pick them apart like any band and make suggestions and nitpick what they want them to do rather than what they are doing. I mean it happens here every day. With that being said, I'm not one to say what anything is literally about but I could see that one could think the song means that. at the end of the day, who gives a fuck? I'm interested to hear what else it could be about in someone else's opinion though. And don't simply  give me the "bad relationship" bullshit please... maybe it's about the system? Maybe it's about the music industry? Anyone? Again it doesn't have to be about anything but what do you think?what do you feel while listening to what he says in this track?

Help me out here please, in the picture above what is that object with the picture of the music equipment with the wires? Is that a magazine or a book of pictures? I have no idea. I usually just buy the music since the Sergio era And don't really collect or go any deeper than that but I am interested to see what I missed here.
