Really? Xenon? Song could've used more of a real bridge/outro but that drum beat and chorus are ace.

I guess it's an unpopular opinion but I voted for Phantom Bride, just can't get into it except for the very ending.

The signs tell me that it's Xenon dropping this time though.

I've seen a lot of people not care for that song too.  I don't get it.  It's top 3 on the album for me.

Acid Hologram has way too many votes too...  If Pittura, Xenon, and Acid Hologram go in the first three rounds, there goes most of my top half of the album!

LOL, xenon is taking the lead of this round...personally I like it

Judging by the way the votes are going right now, I'm guessing I'm going to end up conflicting with popular opinion on this board as usual.

Best tracks on Gore: P/T, Acid Hologram, Doomed User, Xenon, and Geometric Headdress

Worst tracks: Pittura, Gore, Phantom Bride, (L)mirl, and Rubicon

Where's H/W?

Post by: rainnyx4 on Apr 12, 2016, 06:21 PM
H/W is OK. Nothing special. Can't really decide if it's a good track or a bad track. Pretty good chorus but the rest of the song is kind of a let down. Though I could say that about a lot of the songs on Gore.

Xenon, I wanted Pittura out too

Phantom Bride. Xenon is starting to grow

Xenon, I sense round 3 being very divisive.
Title: Re: Gore Elimination (round 2)
Post by: jlaggot on Apr 13, 2016, 04:05 AM
Everyone is surprised about Xenon like really?? It's a very straightforward and boring song by Deftones standards. Yes Abe kills it but he kills it on this entire album.

Decent verses, lazy chorus, and thats about the entire song.

Acid Hologram...sorry, too many ideas in one song.  Confuse

It's beyond me why people don't like that song.

definitely geometric headdress, there's nothing to the song and the chorus reminds me of something on diamond eyes

How are there no votes for Rubicon? Like honestly, am I insane for thinking the song is overrated? Why does everyone love it to such a huge extent???

It's definitely overrated, it's grown on me a bit and I get why people like it though. It will get way farther than it should.

I can't believe people dislike Xenon. That's the first song from the record I remembered after one spin. Well, Gore for me.

Rubicon is outstanding, it's an instant Deftones classic.

I love P/T too though. It's at a big disadvantage for being the first single.

Yup.  It's just okay.  But, for me, Gore is the weakest track so I went with that.  Rubicon is not far behind though...  Maybe it doesn't get votes not because it's everyone's favorite, but it's also not everyone's least favorite either.  Most people either seem to love it or think it's only okay, unlike Xenon and Pittura which for some reason some people seem to hate.  Nobody seems to really "dislike" Rubicon.

I cannot vote. It just hurts to criticize any song on the album, it's too soon.

Yeah that's ridiculous. Also I'll be shocked it Hearts/Wires doesn't win this thing
