Tempest, much to my own surprise, was eliminated in round 5.

Is Tempest overrated? I've never seen praise for it. I always felt like it could've been much better. Voting Entombed.

It has great elements, for sure. Great verses, great choruses. But that bridge isn't cutting it. And then it goes right back into the verse for the third time with no variation whatsoever. They should have used the outro as the bridge, IMO.

only pieces remain


sing blue silver

That'll change when entombed is out, I think poltergeist is pretty weak tier and doomed user is its infinitely better successor, just like so many other songs on gore

Entombed is one of the band's best songs. Get with it losers.

A lot of various media outlets blew a lot of loads over it. I saw it on some recent list of "Top 20 Deftones Songs" of all time or something.

You're confusing Entombed with Hexagram and Battle-Axe, loser!
