I don't know what band you've been listening to, but this band has always had diverse songs. Hell, White Pony has Elite and Pink Maggit. The album doesn't have to have similar-sounding songs to be cohesive, they just have to flow within the context of the album. Koi No Yokan had Rosemary followed by Goon Squad, which sound completely different, but they were linked by the outro/intro, so it flowed very well.

If you want songs like Prayers/Triangles, that's cool, you'll find them. But most of them won't sound like it, and most won't sound like Doomed User. They'll just sound like how they sound, somewhere between 'soft' and 'crazy aggressive', sometimes both at the same time.

Chino's said that this will be a more fragmented album as well.

Chino seems to love contrasts. Everytime he's had to explain an album cover or title, that's what he'd talk about.

Around the Fur : contrast between clean (Around) and dirty (fur, pussy, etc.)
White Pony : contrast between the majestic animal (horse/pony) and the "ugly" music

etc etc.

He's said the same about Gore.

Two of his favorite bands are Weezer and HUM, which both feature heavy guitars contrasting with flat simple vocals. I could go on and on.

Deftones' music has always been kinda lunatic, except for KNY which was way more straightforward in my opinion. I think it's a must. I don't think the difference between DU and P/T breaks the cohesion, but then again I wouldn't know what cohesion you're talking about : the album is not released.

I like how Doomed user sounds like a metal song from the 80's with a super raw demo feel. It suits the song well. Hopefully not all songs sounds like that, but P/T pretty much proves it. So I'm not worried. I like diversity in an album and the first 2 songs have it.

around the fur: the fur being beautiful on the outside, but on the other side of it/around it - bloody skin,terrible looking
white pony - slang for cocaine

Some shit like that

The fact they sound totally different ..i'm fine with it. I way more annoyed by the fact the guitar sound is so different from what i'm used to. Some ppl love the new tune, I just hate it. Oh well...

jciraheta · Mar 21, 2016, 08:33 PM

Du seems likes it was recorded in a garage ande people just playing on , PT sound like it has many computer layers added, i know its actally frank , but year the flavor its very diferent pd sorry for mu english

illthrowROCKS@U · Mar 21, 2016, 10:42 PM

Yeah seriously, every album has this dichotomy.

ST had WGTB and AOAUE.
SNW had Riviere and Ratsx3

Someone already mentioned WP, and the rest had examples too.

Personally I love DU and only find PT okay.. I'm sure there will be enough to make everyone happy on this record.

iiiiii think that doomed user is TOO heavy and TOO dope for SOME people to cope with, and this is coming from an old-as-dirt deftones fan from the adrenaline era (who probably shouldnt be drinking on a weeknight)

but i digress...
deftones have always been versatile & true to themselves as a band, thats what we love about them, no?

I kind of like the variation between the two songs so far. I like everything from there very heavy stuff like Elite as well as there lighter stuff like Sextape. Its all speculative at this point, but I have a feeling this album is going to bounce around quite a bit. Im just hoping for a mesh of great guitars, cool lyrics, good drums, and atmospheric sound.
