It's... bland.  :(

yes, it is. I mean, I really like the song. every part of the song sounds good. and the chorus is grand. but they could have done so much more with the song. this just sounds like lazy songwriting around a catchy chorus. if they had built up more towards the chorus, and hadn't done it over and over throughout the entire song, it would have been so much more epic.

I'm a little disappointed, yet it's a very good song. I'm just hoping it'll fit in well with the other songs.
pray nightfall release me
then i could wander, wander to deep sleep

Song doesn't really grab my attention. With Rocket Skates I was like "REPEAT THAT SHIT FUCK YEAH" and now i'm like "meh i'll go listen to my britney spears records or something idk" WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?

Penicks really man?  U of all people, the ultimate deftones fan.  I thought you'd dig it man.  I personally like it much more than RS.... to each his own.

I know right? But I'm not gonna listen to it for now and wait a week 'til the official release. Maybe my craving for it will grow.

No prob. Still don't know what he says at 1 part.. but we'll get those lyrics if they release the video w/lyrics on Youtube like Rocket Skates.

What the fuck is it with all the great bands turning to poppy choruses to fit in with fucking Lost Prophets and shit?

probably because of the moolah. im sure they will have some stuff on DE to please deftones fans who appreciate their underground/harder/metal side.they want to please us all. its a little cheesy at times but much better than rocket skates

There Will Be Blood

I guess it is a little blah, I was expecting more. Maybe they wrote it to please the record label?

Dude u know its gonna grow on u.  Its gonna take us all a little getting used to.  I kinda felt the same way about RS as u do about DE.  But the RS really started to impress me.

it's blah for me as well at this point, but im sure it'll grow on me in the future.

I reckon it's because of listening to them as seperate tracks. See how it is with the album as a whole

I remembered when I first heard all the other albums apart from ATF - I was indifferent and a bit blah but they grow like a bitch

they have pleased me
thank you deftones

i love the chorous part of the song..
its melodic, rainy, soft like boobs..
lyrics are good..
riffs are heavy and simple (classic)..
vocals are way clear and different than SNW..
its funny to sing the chorous (actually all) part of the song..so it will sound awesome when they sing it live at conan o'brain (i know he s out now)
the song concept is very dramatic...i dont know,i get upset whenever i listen

an awesome opening for the album, nice single choice, lets see the video now

To the edge
till we all get off
I will take you away with me
once and for all

time will see us realign
diamonds rain across the sky
shower me into the same
realm

calculate, all embrace, hold on
come with me now
right away, all expense with me
once and for all

time will see us realign
diamonds ring across the sky
shower me into the same
realm

time will see us realign
diamonds ring across the sky
I will lead us into the same
realm

When the coffin shakes
and the needle breaks
come run away with me
come on you'll see
once and for all

time will see us realign
diamonds ring across the sky
shower me into the same
realm

Time will lead us to the same realm
I will lead us to the same realm

fixed
