Quote from: Deftones-argentina on Jun 26, 2026, 08:51 PMIn before we all dissipate until the next deftones record cycle (or leak),
I wanted to say I appreciate all of us gathering here every time sometimes significant in the deftones world happen;

As a kid I spent a lot of time here talking to you guys, having a laugh & discovering music among other things. Even tough I'm a grown man now and only enter a few times a year, I love having Sharing Lungs & DW as a constant in our lives. Much love to you all.

I love how you never changed your profile pic again 

Good to see that there are still many known ppl here, and there will be while Deftones lasts.
Couldn't join before, around the PM cycle, because I couldn't login/recover my account, but finally here I am to see what else was happening around the leak.

I got it shared via WhatsApp, and sound is pretty decent but, since it's just mp3, I'd love to see if there is any remaster in the works.

And of course, if Deftones ever decides to release it as I expected to happen sometime in the future, I'll be glad to get a copy, just as I just got my 5 variants between CD/vinly/tape from PM.

Quote from: DefFsho on Jun 25, 2026, 07:58 PMThis is probably the biggest thing to ever happen on this forum. There's still a few names lurking around this place that I remember from those 2007 2008 days when they were dropping those I think weekly clips in the studio making this record. That one evil sounding jam that Chi and Steph were working on, I wish made this record. Also was really hoping to hear what Frank's work on that clip where he's playing that really weird synth electronic sound turned out to be, but it didn't make the cut. Would've been a sweet intro. But of course they've done 1 million things We've never heard that would b great to hear and see...Just like anything else. I'm surprised that a few of those older members haven't reacted to this yet to be honest. Who's the guy who had the little thumbnail picture of a stick man pissing in a dirty toilet? He was a dick but hilarious !!!  I'm glad I got to hear it, but I do get that it sucks in a way, but art is made to share. It wasn't shared correctly. But it was shared, and we are all enjoying it don't lie.

the synth that frank plays in one of those clips reminds me a lot of the outro of pittura infamante/intro to xenon. not the same rhythm but the sound of the synth itself

Totally fits with what I am pointing, some ideas might have evolved on new songs for the upcoming albums

Quote from: Gaz on Jun 25, 2026, 08:54 PMIts a real insight into where the band were at the time and direction they were heading into with this, I never thought it would ever see the light of day

Same here.
I've woke up the last past days with any of thesongs running thorugh my head.

Also I am feeling this is the missing link we've waiting to hear, to see how they've evolved their sound between SNW and DE. Also, some ideas I'm sure could have evolved into different new songs, not that this tune morphed into that one, but some ideas, some riffs.

Many many old names have come back.  Penicks, Pixelsblur, Far Away, etc. - many from the earliest 2004 days.

Regarding the "evil" riff, if we're thinking of the same clip, then that would be Trempest. 

Edit: referring to this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hywI1emDHk

Edit 2: you're prob referring to this clip, i agree it does not appear to be in the leak: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Rn_OT-Jh4Y

That other Clip (Clip 4) seems to be just another variation of Trempest

Quote from: RikshawHoward on Jun 23, 2026, 04:29 PMPut this on again with all the Eros commotion and man, I still love this record so much.

Same. Literally did this like a day or 2 ago. All the Eros talk revitalized PM for me. Usually after a couple months, I get out of that 'deftones coma' phase where all I can think about is their latest work.

That's what always happens to me too. We're lucky they still continue to make great music. It's the first album in a couple of cycles that doesn't have any skips from me. Chino really knocked it out of the park with his vocals.

I listened to Melanie bc we had a live version laying around for a long ass time... I remember thinking back then it was a banger. Even tho this version is unfinished... yup, still a fucking banger.

Oh fuck offffff

Eros = Missing link

Quote from: DefFsho on Jun 28, 2026, 05:03 AMChino sure likes diamonds above anything else besides waves and space and worshiped women.

you may be interested in the leitmotif document once i finish it...i'm about to put on my focusing music and try to chip away at it a bit since i've mainly been editing down clips for my archives. i've seen someone transcribe every eros track's lyrics and a lot of stuff jumped out at me.
