Diamond Eyes - Thoughts + reviews

[deftones86]

this M83 is some weird shit. anyone recommend an album?

Before the dawn heals us. The song Teen Angst will change your life.

[gui]

I'm going to say it, the remix is better than the actual song

[Starz]

Get the album Dead Cities by M83 before anything else. That's when there was more than one person in M83. The best.

[Subliminal]

It's the happiest they have I reckon. Doesn't sound sad at all to me, only 976-EVIL's chorus..

[mikau]

any misheard lyrics?

Listening to Risk I heard "drive" instead of "try", so it was like: "I'll find a way, I'm confused, but I think I could drive" and I was like "WTF, is this song about driving after a party or something?"

loving the album, far exceeded my expectations considering the time they had to put it together.  dig the art.  speaking of which, it appears that Tones only paid about $1500 for that owl picture.... now thats a deal!   http://www.glowimages.com/index.cfm?/imageDetails_EN&imgid=20922297&extIntCode=0  go ahead and calculate the price for >1,000,000 prints and worldwide distribution.

Wow, it's a stock photo?

So much for Frank Maddock's "hard work."

[Subliminal]

Finally, the coverrrr.

[Dienekes]

I think the album art makes the album that much better..IMO its there best to date....

Three words.

White. Pony. Iconic....

Out.

[dictatesofreason]

well you know what at the time i bet people were just as criticizing about WP when it came out all you fucks who criticize DE or any 'Tones album should shut the fuck and give it time, the albums the songs will grow on you, people the days are too quick to pass judgment and with  THIS album, jesus calm down we whined that we wanted new stuff fer so long and when we get it we get angry over dumb shit -"aww man it sounds like WP","i dont like the owl" "theres no electronica" "chinos no playin as much" i mean shit the list goes on...

jus quit takin stuff for granted people this is the greatest band on earth and they have more than delivered so give their music, their art some time..to grow on you.

[Inkblades]

that's complete bulllshit to use a stock photo...it sounds like a real cheap way to have a cover art.

[Far away]

Oh big fucking deal! New order and joy division used stock photos on their album covers. Did that have any effect on The music?NO!

I just agreed with the same thing in this one: http://www.sharinglungs.com/index.php/topic,16405.new.html#new
That definitely takes any cool factor away from it for me...I mean I can't think of any other album cover that uses a stock, pre-existing photo as it's main and only subject...
