In my opinion, composition-wise, it's hard to decide if I'd put Gore over KNY. Even though that last one doesn't really click with me, it's objectively a hella good composed record. You don't get universal acclaim for nothing. But I'd say...

Adrenaline: the sound of a young band, relentless and unapologetic. But also, repetitive and immature.

ATF: great, but lacks too much of the hypnotic side of Deftones for me to consider it their best

WP: Some 10/10 absolute classic material on there. Raw, trippy, drug-influenced level of creativity. But yeah, Elite - > Teenagers is sorta boring to me nowadays. Just personnal tastes.

S/T: absolutely love the mood of the whole record. But composition-wise, it gets repetitive and lazy at times

SNW: Pink CellPhone. Fuck that song. Oh, and Mein. Fuck that song too. And the messy tracklist. Fuck the messy tracklist

DE: would be a strong contender for their best one, if it wasn't for that absolutely cringeworthy phonecall effect on Chino voice (Beauty School, Prince) 

KNY: composition is honestly spot on. But somehow, the vibe and melodies have never clicked that much with me. Sorta the opposite of S/T.

Gore: right now -> FUCK ITS SO GOOD HYPE, HYPE

On acid hologram are they spinning a microphone above the drums? I brought this up about 100 pages back, it sounds eerily similar to other songs that have used that technique. It also does something pretty psychedelic to the mix once it's done

Don't you folks think the song Gore resembles Melanie just a bit?

Not at all

And to that NYrexall guy (or whatever his sn is)... Chill out with the hype. I have a feeling you won't like it and you'll hate us all

To that Jerry Curls guy (or whatever his sn is)... I already hate you for thinking I'm not going to love every moment of this record when I finally hear it

I don't hear it. I've yet to listen to the album with headphones though

So it's the eve of the album and for the first time in their near 30 year history, there have been no music videos released to support any of the songs

Way to drop the ball on this album, Warner Bros. Good to know you clueless suit fucks care about your artists

Wasn't there supposedly a video in production of them standing in a room miming P/T? What's the point now? That was the first single over two months ago. So lame..

My guess would be Friday for the video. Pretty fuckin dumb indeed to wait this long, and I wouldn't even be surprised at this rate if it didn't drop Friday. Can't wait for some pro-shot footage of the Kimmel performance either. P/T by the way has grown on me so much the past few days.. unreal. The only two tracks that haven't really clicked with me yet so far are Pittura and Xenon. The rest keep sounding better and better by the day.

You are crazy, Xenon is beautiful!

Maybe I'm wrong but I remember they filmed a video for something from KNY, and they didn't like it so they just didn't release it?

That is a Shudder To Think song for sure. Bombastic, fussy, esoteric
