your opinion has improved of the album or not ?????,
mine ha imporved, i have to say for me it ha the the highest peaks o music i like in songs like acid hologram nd rubicon
just my opinion tho
Kind of.
I still stick with other albums to listen to, most of the time.
I'm still not getting into Gore... there is no love for any song like in previous deftones albums. I'm listening to it from time to time, and everytime it's getting a little bit better, but still there is no awesomeness in Gore. I'm listening to it once in a few days, it's not a bad album, but nothing special, nothing I'd like to listen to it in repeat (like I do otherwise with fav. music).
Honestly, I'm also not listening to deftones like a few years ago, it's still one of my fav. bands, but my musical tastes changed more to postrock, ambient and more melodic sound than hard rock and alike
But soon it's summer, maybe this will change at least a bit my opinion on Gore... Idk but summer is always deftones time for me^^
btw still hopping to hear Eros someday ;)
The album has grown on me except for Geometric Headdress. Title track Gore is heavy but still somewhat weak

It's still horrible.
I like 3 songs, but they don't move me.
Just a long wait until the next album.
Love it... But still don't like ácido... :/

This. First three songs are good but nothing to go nuts over.
Choruses for Geometric Headdress, Xenon, and Rubicon are all pretty great but the rest of those songs are problematic for various reasons.
Hearts/Wires is a good song but gets tiresome in context of the rest of the album because of how middling the rest of the album is.
Intro and first verse of (L)MIRL is great but the song goes downhill after that.
Pittura Infamante, Gore, and Phantom Bride are all b-side material at best.
Severely disappointing album. Haven't felt like this since S/T.

I've had this album playing in my car since it came out, just trying to figure it out, and you're right that there just aren't any songs that move you. This is the first Deftones album I can honestly say I don't like and it's heartbreaking because for the longest time they were like these gods in my eyes that could do no wrong.
Still love the LP. Every song is sick.
some what. I've really gotten into the bridge of Pittura. and the title track has grown on me as well. Still don't like Doomed User or Xenon though. Other tracks I all enjoy.
i like it. i like it a lot
It's best listened to on a cloudy, miserable day.
Having said that, I've flip flopped on the songs quite a bit. I can listen to tracks 4-8 without skipping any tracks. Three weeks ago I was skipping around a lot.
Geometric Headdress is my favorite, hands down. I love the lyrics, the dynamics, the chorus. I know a lot of people hate it, but it's my favorite.
Didn't like Xenon or Pittura at first. Really enjoy them now.
Title track is a lazy riff. My least favorite hands down. Phantom Bride had potential, and I loved it at first, but after a month of listening it seems like they couldn't figure out a bridge so they asked someone to throw in a solo.
Doomed User is a "blast in your car when stuck in traffic" type of song for me.
AH is very cool. It's is very cut and paste with the ideas.
I feel like between the last two albums they've done a lot of cutting and pasting and not figuring out how to make a song flow. Just my opinion.
I would say "I need to hear them live before finalizing my opinion" but I know most of these songs will never be played live.

It's still fucking phenomenal
After a month I still rank Gore as my least liked Deftones album. with that being said I love Geometric Headdress and Hearts/Wires. I love how frantic GH is. Rubicon and Gore I also really enjoy. Those four songs are the shit. Pittura Infamante and Xenon are the worst Deftones songs I've ever heard, there are no other Deftones songs that make me cringe. LMIRL is pretty shitty too. P/T, Acid Hologram, Doomed User and Phantom Bride are alight but they don't stand out to me.
It's really good, I just wish it had been better produced and certainly better mixed.
It really picks up from Pittura Infamante IMO. The first five songs are decent - Acid Hologram in particular is great - but Pittura Infamante is when it goes up a notch. Fuck anyone who doesn't like that song.

Agreed, and they're back to back to add insult to injury.
Pittura infamante and xenon are the most infuckingcredible Deftones songs ever released and they give me a raging erection sequenced back to back on the album

.-.
I've listened to the whole album once, so I'll need to listen to it again.
At this point, the only song from Gore I really love is Doomed User.
I still like the album, but I have to admit that I haven't really been listening to it much lately. I did listen to Phantom Bride last night, a song that I was finding new things to dislike with each listen, and it sounded fucking great. Funny how that works.
Pittura and Xenon are pretty good songs, but they are sort of a bizarre tonal shift from the rest of the album. The rest of the album feels a little darker, but those songs seem so lighthearted and happy.
Song ranks a month in...
Geometric Headdress
Acid Hologram
Gore
Hearts/Wires
(L)MIRL
Prayers/Triangles
Rubicon
Doomed User
Xenon
Phantom Bride

Overall: nothing touches WP, ATF, and S/T. After that I have this, DE, and Adrenaline in the same class. Sorry KNY and SNW. Not bad albums, just never grabbed me the way the other albums did.

That's pretty much my view - for me, SNW and KNY are very good records but not particularly special, Gore, DE and Adrenaline are great albums and then ATF, WP and S/T are in a special category marked 'As good as music gets'.
this is very hard because like i said this album for me has peaks equas to the most greates albums
i know they pobably kick me out the forum if i said this album i in the same category of white pony , but my rank will be like this
ATF , Adrenailne , white pony, Gore , St in the same category
DE SNW a bit down
last one KNYK
just my opinion tho
Overall I am still pretty disappointed in this album.. I listen to Phantom Bride and Rubicon on occasion but the others don't really do it for me.
For one the mix is so bad I have a hard time ignoring that - and the songs are just meh.
I am long time D'tones fan so I kind of feel bummed about it tbh. I still have hope they can put out a great album but it seems like they have kind of peaked as a band, plateaued and are possibly trending down(?) :-\
I hope their next work blows me away... either way they have put out so much good music I really can't complain, I have 7 other albums I can go back to an enjoy... there aren't any other bands I can really say that about.
The only song I want to legit listen to after H/W is Xenon. 2nd half of this album is some of the most lackluster stuff they've done.
