Quote from: Draken on Jun 23, 2026, 03:13 AMKinda odd this happened two days after Chino's birthday. I really want to hear what the band has to say about it.

my theory is that he was also under this move, like that time with Smile

This is most certainly not from the band

Nah, I never thought it was from Chino or the band. This would be a stupid way to share that material with fans. Maybe someone that works with the band in some capacity, or more likely someone who works for WB. Just sucks it happened around his birthday.

We've heard from his wife now, you can bet the band is fucking pissed. I'm just very bummed about it tbh. I mean, I've been wanting to hear this material for 18 years... that's fucking crazy. Now, they're definitely never going to revisit the album, but I didn't think they would anyways, so as a fan I couldn't help myself. My girlfriend and I listened to it last night. Very bittersweet, just wanted to hear Chi again. I am very sorry to the band this happened, I personally won't feel right to contribute to it spreading on the internet but I won't judge anyone else for doing so. It is what it is. 

Actually same here. I still didnt listen to it. Its getting difficult.

"No spoilers chat please" XD but also, I can imagine. The resistance is strong

Somebody pass that shit please.

Awesome job, thank you ! Quick question: are the files on the Eros throwaways/demos section the original ones ? Because I'm missing a few of them, and can't find them anywhere else.

That's coming from a person who's not been obsessing with this stuff for almost 20 years. They're musicians, they always have some demos cooking. Of course he forgets.

As for Chino's wife's answer, I'm not so sure. She did not elaborate on things. The fact some shady person was trying to sell the material sure is unfuckingbelievable. Are they against the fans listening to it? They didn't say it. After almost 40 years in the business they gotta be prepared that a recording of him singing in the shower might end up on the internet and the fans will still think it's a banger.

Steftone don't sound like he gives a flying fuck.

Lol what's this dude talking about with the songs being on YouTube for a while? All I know was Smile and the instrumental for Brianna

Yeah it doesn't sound like he's been clued in to what has actually come out and is misremembering or blurring it together with other leaks, though to be fair they are sessions from 20 years ago that he possibly hasnt looked at since then, if I were in his position I probably wouldn't even remember any details about the songs or how many there were.

Honestly, to me? The album was basically ready for release, despite what any of the guys have said in the past; the only song that actually sounded unfinished was Candy (due to the minor guitar presence), and even then, it's still good as is. If this debacle ends up inspiring the guys to officially release it at some point, it wouldn't take much to shine it up even further.

Quote from: Troa on Jun 24, 2026, 06:50 PMHello, I've decided to make my own topic about this because I didn't want to spam the Eros topic about my tracker.

The website is back up, and it is fully finished, there is some new downsides though with having the website instead of google sheets.

Downsides:
No more images on the tracker
Whenever I add something new to the tracker, it will take up to 1 hour for whoever is viewing to see the actual change. This was a compromise to get fast loading times
Overall worse looking

If you are on the website and it doesn't load up immediately and it's just blank, just wait a couple of minutes. It shouldn't be doing that in the first place, but it should load.

I recommend using https://www.deftonestracker.net/ instead of deftonestracker.net because it will fill up your whole screen on www. but for some reason not on the other.

Anyways, I'm sorry about all the technical difficulties and take downs, but from now on It shouldn't be like that anymore (hopefully)

Thank you for all the support.

Thank you! You're the absolute best!

Briana is actually dated January 11th, 2009 instead of September 29th, 2008.

Instrumental and acapella for Trempest also leaked.

Just wanted to say thanks again, but your box is full, so I'll say it here.
The url is working now. Just saw your pm with the info... really interesting stuff. I'm guessing Crest will show up at some point soon.
