Diamond Eyes - Thoughts + reviews

[bewareofrats]

I would certainly expect Walmart would have the new album but I'm kind of concerned it might not. Can anyone confirm it being sold at Walmart?

And if it does it better not be the damn edited version.

[Corleone]

edited version?

[bewareofrats]

According to someone else here there's a clean version.

There is an edited version on itunes. Wal-Mart ONLY carries edited versions. Never mind that you can buy all the profanity and nudity you want 2 aisles over in the movie section...
Guess profanity is ok in moves but not music....

no yahoo messenger noise is nice. and the bass through the whole album is so clear. it sounds a million times better than the leak.

Damn i'm jealous.  Stuck at work.  But I did download the bonus track version on itunes at midnight, and just picked up the cd at BB.  What a great album.  And, I may be way off base here, but isn't the double down a breakfast sammich?

Oh, god.

I listened to the record on my way home from buying it at the mall. When I pulled into my apartment's parking lot and finally got to look through the CD booklet, "Sextape" was playing in the background as I read the band's message to Chi on the last page.

I almost cried.

The album is amazing. I'm so glad that they decided to continue making music.

One Love For Chi.

It's trippy how indiscernible the vocals on the "I wanna watch the way...you creep across my skull," bit are from an instrument.

Much respect,

Just read this one I hope this is not a repost.

USA Today : 3 1/2 Stars out of 4

ROCK FROM A HARD PLACE

"After a car crash in 2008 sidelined bassist Chi Cheng with a brain injury, his Sacramento bandmates shelved finished album Eros and enlisted fill-in Sergio Vega to embark on an uplifting, polychromatic homage to their fallen Brother. On this sixth and Best Effort, Deftones deftly flows from visceral alt-metal brutality to serene melodic beauty, displaying a raw intensity that's purely cathartic and a wounded sensitivity that's never mawkish"

>>>Download: Beauty School, You've Seen the Butcher, Sextape

Lot's of words that I am sure some of us don't understand. But it sounds pretty damn good to me.

I need a Dictionary dudes!
