I voted Rubicon for the simple reason I like H/W's lyrics better.

But they don't even say how to face the crowd.

I don't understand how people keep complaining the album isn't heavy enough and then proceed to vote off all of the heaviest songs....I don't have this problem with the album personally, but It makes you people seem a little nutty to me.

personally, I do prefer the heavier side of deftones if i must choose, but i fancy a good mellow song over a weak heavy song anytime of the day. for instance,hw is way better than the song gore - it's not all about heaviness vs softness. also, the album gore is pretty good regardless

Voted for Hearts/Wires : so so so so so overrated.

Personally i strongly agree and believe this is one of their stongest albums as of late.....just confused by that being the main complaint I've heard about this album and then people vote in an entirely different manner.

I do agree with this though...besides the intro..the song itself it isn't the best on the album by a long shot. Out of the two Rubicon should be the winner.

Both songs are horribly overrated.  This poll lost me when AH got knocked out.  Neither of these songs deserves anything.
9/26/10 - Patriot Center
5/22/11 - Sunset Cove Amphitheater
8/7/12 - Verizon Center
10/26/12 - Ram's Head Live

I like Hearts/Wires but my 2nd favourite was eliminated in the last round. Rubicon is my favourite.

Rubicon overrated?
IMO the two overrated songs are H/W and PB, everyone's talking about them and Cantrell's solo on Bride which actually screwed the song completely.

Rubicon is the best song of the Sergio era. Let's be real here.. They all come together on this one. And steph hits me like he used to back in the day.

I think they really gather everything together on Rubicon. The intro that makes it sounds like it's going to be more epic sounding song, then the immediate shift in tone with the tenser sounding verse, then the way it opens up with the chorus and that lead guitar line and then it gets even bigger as it goes on. Fucking love it.
