I did read on Total Rock yesterday that Terry Date was doing this album and that it's also to be released in the autum. I thought this was common knowledge and that Total Rock were just being late as usual.

I hope he is.

He has been the best producer in their career (well, first and best of other 2).

I'm glad they're getting back to working with Terry after the whole Bob Ezrin episode. Hopefully it will say "Terry Date and Deftones" on the production credits, like it should, hehe...

yo bob ezrin's material wasnt that bad..when the band relocated to sacremento with brian virtue (the engineer) a lot of new songs came out then like rapture, rats!rats!rats!, kim dracula and then there was shaun lopez who did a wonderful job.SNW was a good change from terry date..i just hope there are songs as good as SNW.

I can't stand the production on SNW

the guitars sound way too light and the drums sound way too tinny (not to be confused with tiny).. it just sounds shitty overall in my car for some reason (and I have a good system)

I am in love with the heavy booming sound of Around the Fur and even self-titled (yes, I know deftones produced it themselves), so I'm stoked about Terry Date being back

I like what you said about the boom.

There is definitely a sonic wall of guitar on those records that is irresistable sounding. SNW sounds all over the place on the other hand. It's still a great record, but in Deftones terms some songs sound a bit limp, others heavy - it's generally incohenrent.

Ever see the video where Terry tells them to quit eating seeds and record some tracks... Funny shit... Of course Abe is just chilling at the drums waiting to play.

wow this is great news. all of the deftones records that date has produced have been perfect. its also cool how they are working with scotty olson.

SNW was fucking great, but i have a feeling that this will be the D-tones best effort since ATF.

Hence Seattle being "up there".  But if you want to get technical, up and over to the left there in Seatlle.

Post by: Jizzlobber on Feb 29, 2008, 07:16 AM
i would safely say, Deftones might be very weary of not having the next record be succesful, so, i would say, they have thought long and hard about ways to almost guarantee a succesful record. and i think they came to the conclusion the Terry Date back as producer will serve them better than self producing (bad option) or getting a "new guy"



Title: Re: Is Terry Date "locked" in as Producer for "Eros"?
Post by: fireflyry on Feb 29, 2008, 11:50 AM
Hard question...

TBH I think bands are at fault when they use they same producer but thats a very individual take on production.

Post by: theshadeisatool on Feb 29, 2008, 03:49 PM
They always said he was a brilliant sound engineer, and if they wanted a certain sound he would know how to help them create it - It sounds like a pretty good relationship as far as bands and producers go,

The only not quite as good but still brilliant (my own opinion) fruit it has produced was S/T - even then it was lot to expect another White Pony and many others would indeed pick S/T over WP, as discussions on this board have shown.

Yes, I like s/t definetly more than white pony. Not saying WP is a bad album, but it doesn't have Hexagram, WGTB, Battle-Axe or Bloody Cape..

i think we can agree that terry date is the deftones' sixth band member.

I know what you mean, those songs are different and belong to s/t. White Pony is it's own entity (like everybody knows).

Post by: Inkblades on Mar 03, 2008, 06:10 AM
I'm going to say something that alot of people will disagree with, but here goes. Deftones need Terry Date. SNW, while good, is the weakest album in their discography. That also was the one album Date wasn't on. Maybe I'll be proven wrong when Eros comes out, but for now, that's how I feel.
Title: Re: Is Terry Date "locked" in as Producer for "Eros"?
Post by: Jizzlobber on Mar 03, 2008, 08:42 AM
Yeah you have a point.

Terry Date is a good producer thats why. Terry is as much a member of Deftones as anyone. he understands the guys well as people, as musicians, artists, he knows how to take all the individual roads thats thats seperate members are on, and lead them to one final road and destination, bringing them all to the same place.

SNW sounded a bit "all over the place" in terms of the ideas, Date always gets them on the same road, speaking in metaphors of course
Title: Re: Is Terry Date "locked" in as Producer for "Eros"?
Post by: Starz on Mar 03, 2008, 05:36 PM
Yes I am pleased Terry Date is back as the producer. After SNW I think all of the Deftones knew that getting Terry in on the new album is the best idea...
