"Ohms" - Deftones New Album

[secretbandinsider]

We didn't get to hear Genesis live at a normal non-social-distanced concert. We were robbed. Hearing that groove with a good crowd would have been wild.

That breakdown of the inception of Ohms was great. Can anyone identify the effect responsible for Stef's guitar tone? Is it an octave fuzz or just an octaver?

[secretbandinsider]

I'm not sure, but Ohms is such an incredible song. I had some growing pains with it at first, but my god. Utter perfection.

God damn it Defthony Hateano! How dare you :-|  (5:50)

No one fucking cares.

This song breakdown from Chino on the title track is awesome https://songexploder.net/deftones

Includes clips from Stef's original demo and them jamming out the idea in the studio.

That was absolutely wonderful, I could listen to literal hours of that. Hearing the isolated tracks was so cool, especially Frank's and how the effects on the vocals build up etc

I'm not sure about that, but I'm almost certain there's also a subtle harmonizer playing thirds there, along with the also very subtle -1 octave

We need an auto-ban of anyone who even mentions that twats name.

That songexploder podcast was great. Very cool how in depth they got with the creation of Ohms.

I'm shocked Abe didn't use a click track on this album.
This is the first time I've ever heard Chino acknowledge the abuse he's done to his voice over the years.
I kinda liked the original slower Ohms riff...

I wish they would do this kind of stuff more often. Kudos to the podcast for thinking of something new. At least it's better than reading Chino's response as to why Eros isn't released yet. Lol.

Still got Ohms on heavy rotation, still love it, still the only weak track for me is TLID, I don't think it will ever sink in with me, apart from that it's a flawless album.

Same, it just does nothing for me. The rest of the album is still really dope.

I love the whole record, but i still dont get the hype for "the spell of mathematics"...i mean great song but its my least fav. just my useless opinion tho, feel like sharing it.

"Least fav" like #10???

[976-EVIL]

Seems everybody pretty much loves the Album. However it's interesting how polarizing both TLID and TSOM are to this board. IMO...both are solid tracks. I doubt I will get much support here but.

I think This Link is Dead is far better than TSOM.

[laurapalmer]

Yeah I tend to agree. Actually ranking all 10 would be quite difficult but I'm fairly certain TLID and TSOM are both somewhere in the 6-10 range.

[secretbandinsider]

TSOM is easily a top 3 track for me, but there is something really awkward about the way it kicks in. I definitely would have like some kind of intro or better transition into the song proper.

[Gaz]

TSOM is easily one of the best songs!

[secretbandinsider]

Y'all mad, TSOM is up there. I also like the way it just kicks in. I feel like Rosemary-type intros are overdone.

True, but I would have killed for a Hearts redux type intro

[Visionz]

TSOM Is one of their greatest tracks imo. Such a unique guitar sound to me.  Great misical composition and lyrically as well... also I've never tried to make myself like something or discover something that I can't discover where others can until they wrote this link is dead. I just don't get the hype but it's music and that's how it goes

when I first heard the clean part with the 'snaps' my soul literally left my body
