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.

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

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.

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.

Quote from: DefFsho on Jun 27, 2026, 11:35 PMYeah, I dig that song that was taken out of ohms, Rain. More parts than others I really like. Upon just a couple listens it doesn't sound very cohesive to me, but like I say this shit always changes overtime imo

well now i'm a bit confused...i thought the ohms track that got leaked was named sensations? is this the same track or did a different track leak?

I believe it is the same song called sensations with rain in parentheses or vice versa. At least that's how I remember seeing it...did you like it?

i was able to find the eros files but not this one yet, so i don't know 

I am thirsty for Koi no Yokan demos and stems. It's not my favorite record by far. But when that record came out and I played it for several months on and off in 2012 and 2013, it was that record that I wondered what sounded like in demo phase. Like what they fucked around with during that time that didn't make it or turned into something. I would like to hear all demos and stems from all the records to be honest, but for some reason that one was so cinematic along with diamond eyes. I want to hear those demos. Gore is just a long demo to me when I listen to it. It's the weirdest record they ever made because of the production and mastering and mixing. Eros unfinished even sounds clearer than Gore. And I do get that they were striving for a live playing sound on that record. I remember reading that. And I do hear it, but I'm not satisfied

What a weird song diamond is. I'm talking about the beginning and pretty much the first half. It sounds so different from anything they've ever recorded, to me, even though I'm speculating this song wasn't done or official obviously. Like I said before, the second half of it is probably so far my favorite part of this unreleased famous record. But the beginning is so weird. I like to think it was just ideas. There are a few tracks that I cannot for the life of me tell what he is singing most of the time and I expected that material being unfinished.  Diamonds really went a lot further than we thought as a theme. Like a scrapped song from Ohms, Rain.... "Diamonds raining on you." 10 years prior, diamond eyes had the same line. Just the words were different. And then you have the song that I'm speaking of. Never thought of Chino as a diamond guy.🥴 "Diamonds rain across the sky".....
 Just something I recognized
