Beauty School and (especially) Sextape make me sad like Mascara, Teenager, Xerces, Cherry Waves, and Riviere do  :'(

Very powerful songs and it's hard for me to actually listen to them...

His singing in Risk reminds me of Alien Ant Farm

Even though it's a negative emotion, you gotta love music that can evoke certain emotions in you. I guess that's the whole goal of it though. Riviere is a beautiful song though.

well i listend to it 3 times now stoned it is amazing this just might be my favorite album but ill wait awhile for that. Amazing work. 

Thank you Deftones

I must say, this was the first and only Deftones album that I loved already just upon first listen. Even White Pony took me two or three listens to truly start to get into it. But right off the bat, Diamond Eyes just clicked. Phenomenal.

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

I don't like the album anymore. I've just realised there's no "THE EEEARTH!!1"-track on it. Fucking sucks.

Nor a "youuuuuuuuuuuuuu" track. SABOTAGE DEFTONES

I have a feeling this will go number 1 on the Billboard, it doesn't take much to hit that now either!

i agree, this album triggers a lot of emotion, sextape really gets me. i know White Pony was the album that was supposed to "take them to where they  needed to go" but i feel this album is the one that will break them into the mainstream...and to the person that said they felt the  90s feel to it, i totally agree, i felt a kind of vibe on the album that i couldnt explain, and you hit it it right on the head. im very proud of them

It is a great album.  Definitely love every track on it, and I'm telling you, you gotta listen to that scream on Royal at 3 minutes, speachless, they really hit home with this one.

that scream was amazing, my jaw dropped on first listen

It's almost as good as the scream at the end of RatsRatsRats!

Is it me or does the begining of Sextape sound similar to Teenager the Idiot Pilot version?

Sextape sounds like The Cure.  It's beautiful.

I get a "Anniversary Of An Uninteresting Event" feel from it...Maybe its just me i dunno...

Diamond Eyes sets up Royal really well. Those first 3 songs pretty much tell you this album is going to give you Ear-gasums.
