    • Bros….this is a bit of a let down. Like you BOM I was super-pumped for some originals. No doubt they’ll be cool-fun, but…yeah…hmm…might just grab the physical. Any of you lads know if the Interpunk pre-order is a signed version?

      Signed, huh? I met them at an in-store appearance when Around the Fur came out and got them to sign a copy of that and Adrenaline…that would be a nice addition to the collection…

      This hasn’t leaked yet, but apparently there is a deluxe edition of Diamond Eyes with some remixes. Change, My Own Summer, Hole In The Earth, Shove It! and By Myself with Linkin Park. I haven’t seen a deluxe edition for sale yet so who knows if it is legit or somebody threw it together.

      It is a song called “By Myself” remixed by Linkin Park featuring Steph on guitars. That’s all I know. Haven’t heard it yet. Don’t know if I have the time for silly horseshit like that anyway.

    • I pre ordered the deluxe edition myself under the impression that the extra songs were originals. Then a friend told me they were covers so yeah a little bummed but still stoked to hear them. The cardigans cover should be the shit though, the “do you believe” song is one of their better ones.

      I think The Chauffeur is the best cover song they’ve ever done. Every part of that song is Deftones at their finest. I bought that Duran Duran tribute album back in the day just for that song.

    • my bad, i was referring to the cardigan song being one of the their better songs not the deftones. Haven’t heard deftones cover of it yet but can imagine what it will sound like. I personally like their Cocteau Twins cover of “wax and wane”, it’s so smooth and a lot like the original but with a little deftones flavor.
