Hi there! Is there any good recording of Dia De Los Deftones 2024 performance? If so, can anybody provide me a link please?

I know I must be a minority but as long time lurker, I'm going to give my honest opinion on the new album. For me this album is almost like one big long song, nothing to remember and no lyrics stick to me like other songs from their discography. The only song that I remember is the main single MMIAM and right after that is when nothing stick with me. It is a saying that every band has a bad/meh album and sadly that is the case for me and this last effort from our guys. I hope y'all keep enjoy it, best regards and well time to wait until 2030. Have a great life and to those that still accessing to my youtube channel thank you very much, it is the reason why I keep the channel up for you guys to enjoy "the golden era" which is how I call it    Laters! MLR

Any more info on the Diamond Eyes b-side? I also remember reading about it but I don't think the band has ever mentioned it and it has never really been brought up since then

And if we are talking about possible tracks for the compilation, I wonder what happened to the 2 Koi No Yokan tracks that didn't make the cut

Quote from: Fred Bob on Sep 10, 2025, 03:00 PMThe album is growing on me more and more, such weird details. Songs that at first several listens are unremarkable, reveal themselves... Departing the body springs to mind

I really think of Royal and CMND/CTRL as the sonic template for the album... a buzzing overdriven guitar with Chino and Frank getting creative on top of it.


Infinite Source and MOTM are still the standouts, don't like ITAYATT at all and don't mind a heartfelt Deftones but take my diamond line is cringe and feels like reaching for prom dance audiences.

It's a trip of an album

agreed. i've been trying not to over-listen because i find that things stand out to me the more i'm listening to all of the tones' material at once vs. just one album, and giving myself a break every now and then lets me continue to listen with (relatively) new, open ears.

i agree that it musically draws from DE + KNY (souvenir, especially its choruses, reminds me of royal, like you mentioned) but cXz and ITAYATT really remind me of SNW in particular. souvenir and departing the body also remind me of ohms.

i feel like gore had a very stoner-y surf sound to it (acid hologram in particular has been a big favorite of mine for the past few months because of that intro riff) that got more ambient and audibly deep with ohms (i'm thinking of the guitar in radiant city and the intro to headless specifically) while this album brought back the immediacy/blood-pumping-factor that DE and KNY had.

man, just writing this text out made me want to listen to like 5 different songs. time to do that
