Either I'm missing something here or does no one see that the whole video is up on deftones.com homepage?? ;D
It is now.. watch it while its hot.
ITS UP!
It's ok I guess. Nothing will top Change or Digital Bath for me but I've seen hella worse from them.
not a bad video! great song!
I guess that girl is some kind of human owl.
Ok...first impression of this music video: I know Deftones are art rock and experimental or what have you, but man sometimes their videos try too hard to fit into that vein. The shattering glass/diamonds became comical after a while, and I think that the slow motion and rumbling camera to convey heaviness is has been way overdone. Especially by Deftones. I guess i keep expecting a deftones video that doesn't feature the band in a live setup. I guess I can keep wishing.
The video is ok. They must have a super low budget or something...
pretty sweet. chino still can't lip sync convincingly for shit. very over dramatic facial expressions. still entertaining and interesting.

Yeah I noticed that too. its way out of sync but its not chino's fault its the dude that edited the video. But yeah its way over dramatic LOL
I think not enough happens in the video. I've watched it once and I'm not even itching to see it again. Nothing happens in the clip. Really nothing. Rocket Skates is a much better clip imo, they should make that the first single :P
yea very blah and boring
they over did it with the after effects
that was pretty kickass. nice images. i'm happy with it
RS vid is a bit better, but this is still awesome. 2 really solid videos so far
better than mein but what isn't. rocket skates>diamond eyes though.
i thought it was dope but im a big fan so anything they do i think is dope except for mein of course !!!!!!!!!
haha I actually think the Mein video fits the songs quirkiness and it doesn't bother me that much. Nothing, and I mean nothing, even comes remotely close to the ridiculousness of the Hole in the Earth video.
Shit flying through space and the everything being sucked into a literal black hole..hahaha. No, nothing comes close.

Looks like someone gave Chino a pink belly lol
Wow some of you guys are just sad. Yes Chino is much thinner and healthier and for that, we're all excited for him. But this is just borderline retarded. Anyways, regarding the video - I really dig it. I love the concept of the woman (very 1980's esque). A simple performance video. Fun to watch.

Don't make me beg more V!
Well its decent, maybe a lil cheesy but still cool.
myspacefail
I like it. I think it's simple yet elegant and I liked the effect with the glass/diamonds. Maybe I just like things to be sparkly. I don't really get the owl/woman thing but maybe it's symbolic for something diamond'esque...
And I love the song.
simple vid for a simple band.
I like it too. It fits the song well. It's not their best video by a long shot but it gets the job done.
Quote from: siL. on Apr 12, 2010, 11:42 PM. I guess i keep expecting a deftones video that doesn't feature the band in a live setup
id like to see a video without the band too. or if they are in it not playing the song. or a theatrical version like metallicas unforgiven. or a 7 + minute song with a dope vid to go with. video was ok for good song
Awesome song, but I wish I could say the same about the vid. It's alright... I really don't dig the parts where they show Chino in slow motion.

The Chino crotch shot was too much for me. I usually don't offer up any negative feedback to people's posts...but seriously? Seriously? Damn.
Much respect,
-Matt
the video is 60% reasonably suited to the song and 40% FAIL. like most of their videos.
for some reason, at the end, I find myself thinking I could make a better video. granted, i'm probably wrong ... but it's so very apparent that somebody was like, "I know, let's break some glass and then we'll use it somehow in the video". but they couldn't come up with anything remotely creative, so they just overlayed it on the top. and seriously, you have the owl mirror imaged several times? seriously? SERIAL?
You guys over analyze every single shit the deftones do.
Just be happy those fucks got new shit out man.
I thought it was a nice video.

you guys read my mind!
I like it.
The owl theme.
Highlights:
- owls, owls, owls
- that glass/water/diamonds thing
- the darkness, the lights and the smoke
- the way Chino moves
Lowlights
- those owl-women (do they always have to put girls in their videos?)
- the way Chino is dressed: my grandma's fav t-shirt ant the trousers he used when he was 9
In the end I like it: as you all said, the most important thing is that it's better than HITE and Mein.
The owl women ritual theme gives me a very "The Holy Mountain" (Alejandro Jodorowski film) feel. The video also feels very David Lynch in presentation. In this sense, I like it. I feel like it really fits Deftones' abstractness. I haven't heard the song yet so I don't know how it will flow the music but I'm sure it will work on that level. Great video. I'm sure I'll love it even more once I hear the song with it.
this video doesn't do much for me. Much preferred the one for rocket skates.
when i watched it i thought maybe chino could be auditioning for the role of 'tin tin' in the new tin tin movie ;) chin chin?

while it's indeed pretty boring, it's stylish and artistic - which is more than the majority of their other videos. they've done better, but they've also done so much worse.

yep this is pretty much where I stand
Diamond Eyes' music video definitely won't open any eyes.
To me, Deftones ain't about the vids. I bet they could care less about music videos... Most Music channels don't even play Music Videos anymore, so not like it matters.
I think it's Warner that's making them do all this stuff. Yea, I guess 'tones care because they wanna make at least SOME cash off of their hard work. But to me, that's why I go see them live... that's where Deftones live... They live live.
Now if their live performances start to seem like their music videos, this would be another story.....
Personally I like the cheezy graphics and imagery. Makes me laugh. And I'll take a good laugh anytime.

...i guess i will watch this vid at least two or three times.
change and digital bath had style and i still watch this videos, but this one just bored me.
anyway.i like the music.
It looks very cheap. The effects are horrible. The chick is OK, the Owl rules.
Too much slowmo, it is okay but I prefer RS.

You're not so bright are you?
i like it
It reminds me of the movie "The Labyrinth" ;D I actually dig it. I mean it's not like the most amazing thing i've ever seen. But it's still much better then a lot of the videos out there right now.
yeah the labyrinth and tin tin
'bowie - tin tin....you have no power over me'
hmm maybe they could have done a clip where they aren't playing, but are kind of getting stalked by owls, sort of like twin peaks/the fourth kind etc..
i aint buying the cristal/water shattering stuff, it looks to cheasy.

it's pretty decent but it definitely won't win them new fans.
you'd think Chino would be able to afford trousers that were long enough by now, haha
Just watched the vid for the second time, I think its pretty dope. I like the slow-mo bits and the idea of diamond shards everywhere. Tight video for sure. I'm with everyone else also, at least its better than Mein and HITE. On the subject of videos, I think their best were Bored, 7 Words, Shove It, BQAD, Digital Bath, Minerva, Rocket Skates, and Hexagram. :)
not bad. but the teaser looked better...

the slow mo bits? the entire clip is pretty much slow mo :D
Very boring video.
i don't know what you guys expect from deftones videos. they're all just standard rock videos (yes, even change for the time) and i take them for what they're worth and enjoy them. except hole in the earth, that was just silly.
This video is pretty boring. It's weak.
And it bugs me how he keeps waving that mic all over the place while he's singing.
Awesome. Just awesome. I love it.
i like the video personally.. sorry? i think it rocks

He's just experimenting with this brand new thing that just came out. It's called fashion.
to me the video is set up kind of like a photo shoot rather than a music video. It has some really good visuals. i can dig it
Its one of their better videos. I still wish they would use live footage from their shows. Before the DE video I kind of envisioned the song as a softer/less aggressive song. I guess the video changed my view a little bit.

Doesnt beat Minerva, Change or Bloody Cape videos, I hope they make a video for Beauty School!!! :P

I'm not sure I'd agree with that. Either way, I think it looks stupid. It's a really, really boring video. I don't like it.

I agree.. it's obviously nothing super special but it's a great song and now you have something to look at while listening to it.
I agree that the video is repetitive in that Chino kind of keeps doing the same "mic head slam" and whatnot, and the crashing diamonds during the ENTIRE video, but otherwise it's fine. What can ya expect...
But like some other said, I would like a video that includes a little live stuff as well as the acting story part; unfortunately they haven't performed any of these songs live yet so they still need footage to sync up!! Hope there are more singles/videos from this album..I really do.
C'mon Royal/YSTB/BS/Prince!!
i think i didnt even see stephen?
anyways, nice vid
I like the video's imagery a whole lot. It's got a Alejandro Jodorowsky stank to it. The beginning instantly reminded me of "Holy Mountain". The first time I've heard of this movie was from one of Frank's posts on the Decibel Devil's blog. Coincidence, I think maybe.
