    • I turned the volume up during the intro because it was soft. I was then immediately ripped to shreds. This is pure Deftones. Dynamics of brutality and beauty all wrapped together. They haven’t gone anywhere and it’s why they’ve been my favorite band since I was 12.

      Mmmmm….delicious! (Was eating a snickers peanut butter squared while listening to this). Had zero doubts and they seem to be coming through yet again. So unfair to the rest of the music business.

      Woops! posted a link in other topic.. Don’t know how this isn’t the top item on the list. Deftones as FUCK! My friend Dave sat on one of those resin chairs at a cookout and his sack got stuck in the crack. Required paramedic attention.. But that was months ago!

    • Holy Shit!!! November 13th can’t get here fast enough! This song has great dynamics and has Chino’s trademark vocals. Plus, it has something slightly different that we haven’t heard before and I can’t put my finger on it, awesome!

      This song is very Saturday Night Wrist with a little Diamond Eyes; Diamond Eyes in terms of production, Saturday Night Wrist for the overall feel.

      Guitars could be a little darker in tone, and the snare is a little soft, but this is only a stream, so the end result may be better.

    • Today I came home between class and work and checked my mail only to find a notice that a warrant was issued for my arrest. I called the process server/bail bond agency that sent the shit only to be told I missed a court date for a civil case I was never subpoenaed for, though they claim that I was. These motherfuckers wanted hundreds from me to lift the warrant and they also happened to be the same people that never served me the papers. They threatened to have me picked up today if I didn’t pay them. I called their bluff. After a long cursing match with the guy over the phone, I told them I would take my chances with the warrant while I handled it with the courts directly and that they wouldn’t see a fucking dime from me. Now I have to look over my goddamn shoulders for the next few days while I deal with it. Horrible day to say the least.

      I thought nothing could possibly put a smile on my face today…UNTIL I HEARD THIS FUCKING SONG! Holy shit Deftones. Thank you for once again making my stressful ass existence a hell of a lot more manageable. I can’t name a band that has had a more profound effect on my life over the years.

        • I gave them a peek and now I’m hiding. It will all be over soon, I just have to stay off the radar for a couple days or I’ll be eating stale cheerios for breakfast.

      • they would kill for stale cheerios here. i remember my three-day “stint” for serving a warrant in Lewisville (TX), and they fed me Swanson microwable chicken pot pies three times a day. that was both the first and last time i ever had one of those fuckers (shudders to self).

    • A day boner at work today – and I’m wearing tight jeans. I agree with the above statements that I really knew this was going to be going but I honestly didn’t expect it to be this grand. Deftones are so on their game.

        • Haha, that’s great. The problem is I don’t think the new LB comes out for a while, so we could all be stuck with boners for months!

      Very few bands can put out as many albums as Deftones and still be true to their real fans. They are still able to impress me with everything they do. They are what music is all about!

    • So I look up “Koi No Yokan” and it means “The sense upon first meeting a person that the two of you are going to fall into love.” Yep. That sums up the Deftones for me. Well played Sirs, Well played.

    • This is a pretty gay thread. I don’t mean that in a disparaging way, one way or another — it’s just that there’s an inordinate amount of dudes talking about their dick.

      Can’t fucking wait until Nov 13 (album release) and then Nov 14 I’ll see them in Dallas for the 10+ time… I’ll have to have another smoke session with them on the bus. The guys are so awesome and down to earth for letting me do that back in 07.

    • As I have said before, not one band can stir my emotions like Deftones do. Great song that cuts like razors and soothes the soul all in one stroke. Thank you Deftones, Thank You, You made my day.
