Goon Squad. The chorus annoys the shit out of me. Especially Chino's looped cat inhale screams. FUCK THIS!

It think "Good Squad" isn't a bad song, but it's out of their chords...a good song if from another band...but strange from Deftones...

I'm just curious, i don't skip songs from this album and it's very strange by me. If i have to, i choose Swerve City...it isn't a bad song, but it's a song like other 1.000.000, nothing from the special taste of Deftones...

tempest, i really love that song, but i feel that doesn't have the entire vibe of the deftones sound, it is like a crosses grunge-influenced song, even i dont like the idea that koi no yokan will be represented by this song as the first single.

I chose Tempest. I like the song, but it's by no means my favorite, and I guess at some parts I find it repetitive.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: seasick on Nov 14, 2012, 05:50 PM
Went with Gauze. I like the song, but I had to pick something, and I think Gauze is a bit repetitive and that the choruses are sort of expected. That said, I have yet to skip a song on this album. I keep listening to it from start to finish.

i think the chorus and bridge are a bit of a mess.. like each member are doing their own thing without bothering listening what the other members do.it goes here and there without any plan,each members playing just don't interect well with each other i think.still listen to it though, bc it has a "closer" feel to it and the album. but as a song i just don't know

Damn... WHTY is a great track, I love it. I wish it was longer, or more drawn out, it would have been better to close the record that way. I don't like how it abruptly ends.

I chose Leathers just because that was the first track we've heard and it's been played to death.

But my runner up would be Rosemary... It's too long and I've heard it too many times as well... I'm surprised to be the only one who will skip that...

Tempest, easy. I have skipped it just about every time I've listened so far. Total weak sauce and mars the record as a whole.

NO!!! Haha I love this track, hands down one of my favorites. Total 80's vibe coming from it, not to mention it sounds like the Cocteau Twins cover. Love the harmony in the verses and then the drums during the bridge...

I only like two songs on the album Gauze and Entombed. I only gathered emotion from Entombed out of all the other songs the only one i can sense it in. Gauze is awesome because of that Dynamic.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: Rally Sweat on Nov 14, 2012, 08:21 PM
WHTY isn't particularly haunting, like a lot of their closers, but it lingers, it's heightening - almost tender. It's got everything a last song demands.

And Gauze! That middle riff swings. Love the end too. It's a really satisfying song.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: Flowb on Nov 14, 2012, 08:34 PM
While I really like WHTY, I think Rosemary would have been a perfect closing song.

Post by: TheyCallMeP on Nov 14, 2012, 10:22 PM
WHTY is one of my favorites from KNY. It seems like that and Swerve City are the two tracks most people are divided on. I think it's a decent closer but anyways.. Skip one track... probably gonna have to go with Swerve City. I like the lyrics and Sergio plays some fun bass but it still just feels like an intro to me. Wouldn't say it's a bad song though by any means. I will admit that parts of Goon Squad seem a bit forced and repetitive. That song's intro after the end of Rosemary saves it.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song

Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: cheachea on Nov 14, 2012, 10:42 PM
 I picked Leathers.

I love the Chorus on Romantic Dreams, but I swear they copy and pasted that chorus into the song though. It just sounds so out of place and out of no where in the song.

Goon Squad is just a mess to me.the chrous sounds terrible to me.skiped it the first time I played the album and had to latter force myself to get through it.to me its one the worst songs they have ever made.it just sounds to generic for Deftones.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: bewareofrats on Nov 15, 2012, 02:43 AM
What Happened to You is a little underrated.  It is underwhelming on first listen for sure but I think it's kind of cool as a closer.

I chose Graphic Nature.  I like it more and more but it's probably the least memorable.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: Dignan on Nov 15, 2012, 04:16 AM
Gauze, talk about a snoozer and i hate talking about the Deftones that way. I have to believe they had a better tune sitting around they could have replaced it with.
Title: Re: [KNY] If you have to skip one song
Post by: Gee on Nov 15, 2012, 03:26 PM
Ah ah, everybody's skipping Leathers. Beware and Rocket Skates say hello.

Anyway, I chose Romantic Dreams. I recently tend to like it a bit more; it's a decent song, but a bad Deftones song -the chorus, come on Chino, you can do better.

WHTY is, at least, original for a Deftones song. But yeah, it's probably their worst closer to date. I agree with those saying Rosemary would have done a better job.

What Happened to You? is a pretty weak track.

i counldn't agree with you more. i was just wondering if i would hear the song different if i hadn't heard it before the album. i'm with you though, it's one of the highlights of the album for me.

Yeah leathers is amazing i'm guessing it's just listener fatigue ,I skip Swerve City quite a bit ,it's not that i don't like it it's mainly because i want to hear Romantic Dreams

Post by: durtysanch on Nov 17, 2012, 04:02 AM
skip Romantic Dreams, mainly because the Chorus pisses me off since it screwed up  a killer intro and some kick ass verses.

But I am surprised at the hate for WHTY. It is literally the only closer i have ever liked by Deftones unless you count MX a closer. WHTY owns me. Second best track on the album for me right now. And that suprises the shit out of me since i dont usually like the slow closers.
