Title: Koi No Yokan Elimination (Round 3)
Post by: Ashtiel on May 13, 2016, 04:22 AM
Since we're doing eliminations and it seems that Koi No Yokan has been on hold due to Dryalex13 not posting the 3rd round I'll go ahead and do it for him since we're around halfway through DE and if we're gonna work backwards then we gotta get this one rolling.

What Happened To You? was eliminated in round 1.
Swerve City was eliminated in round 2.

Ah damn it looks like I forgot to set a limit, voting will close on May 12th at 6:00 PM CST then.

Romantic dreams annoys me.  It was the precursor to a few songs on Gore (Geometric Headdress is the best example), but they just did it sooo much better on Gore than on this song.  Romantic Dreams just annoys the crap out of me.

Romantic Dreams has quite a nice chorus, but the song as a whole feels so disjointed that it falls flat.

Romantic Dreams doesn't feel disjointed and doesn't really sound anything like GH. The really nonsensical analyses and opinions on this board is what makes most of what people on this board say meaningless.

The song certainly isn't that great though. It's not bad, but it's just not that great of a musical idea to begin with. C+/B- Deftones song.

I wasn't suggesting they sounded alike, but the structure is nearly identical. They both have three distinct parts that shift rather abruptly between them.

How you cannot see the comparison is mindblowing.
