Does Damone Belong On Around The Fur?

Damone is perfect right where it's at on ATF.

For starters, it's dark as fuck, and it's inclusion at the very end of the record helps to push what is already an intense sonic experience completely into the red. I love that entire album and it's still probably my favorite record they've done, and that song and its placement on the album made me realize more than any other song they'd done at that point that Deftones were on -- and heading towards -- some other shit entirely.

Also, it's placement on ATF is interesting in itself.

Damone is not some throwaway b-side or experimental bullshit tacked onto the end of the record; it's a monster that easily holds its own with the other songs, and in some cases towers over other tracks. The fact that they deliberately buried it a half an hour after the actual album is finished is telling.

Exactly what it's telling I'm still not sure of, but the way it just explodes out of the speakers after all that silence only maximizes it's already-epic impact.

Damone most definitely belongs on ATF, the 30 minute gap can be annoying but I don't mind working a little bit for that kind of epicness.

Far away

There is no logical reason for Damone not to be on ATF. Chef Royardee loves that song. UTKT- understand that know that
