It's gonna be like when Hole in the Earth and SNW were released all over again.

it sounds like a cheesy pickup line

"coming into the nearness of distance"

The thing about Deftones album titles is there is usually an interesting meaning behind them. I wasn't crazy about "Eros" until Abe said it was something they picked up from watching German porn (which is hilarious). It might be the same with "Diamond Eyes".

But the album title is stupid..more Team Sleep than anything- not Deftones at all.

And the guitar doesn't sound anything like Deftones normally would (but then again, neither did any of SNW).

Sad in pants :(

Sucks for you. I think the audio screams "We're Deftones, and we're not fucking around this time."

God damn, I had this argument a long time ago when SNW came out- how can you think that guitar sounds anything like Deftones? It's totally different like some metal band. Drums however remain somewhat similar to the first 3 albums though.

Well that's cause it's starting off sounding subpar again lol.

Sub-par? Are your ears broken?

This is the best sounding FIRST single they've had since Around the Fur.


Also, does www.deftones.com redirect you to gunzrazorsknives.com? and then does that redirect you to wbr.com?

Well, Minvera was sub par. Change wasn't very heavy, and HiTE was weak sauce.

Oh stop being such a killjoy.

I love how the bass is mixed, it reminds me of Adrenaline.

Well I agree with you on Hole in the Earth lol...I just find it hard to compare anything from SNW and on to anything from self-titled and especially back. It's hard to accept that they sound so different now.

I meant the fact that every Deftones fan is gonna rush the board like the last release.  I wasn't commenting on the song.  I actually haven't listened to it yet.

Yeah, same. But if you're quick enough and press the stop loading button of your browser the page won't redirect.

There Will Be Blood

What the? The guitar sounds like Fredrik Thordendal plays it!  :o

I dunno, I have a huge smile on my face, but I'm irritated and skeptical at the same time. It just sounds a bit like SNW part 2 in terms of "every instrument have to be as loud and clear as possible", but will end up in a sloppy mess... but fuck, nah, I'm just extremely excited/nervous.

I mean, just imagine THIS tight as fuck guitar sound with other (slow and more atmospheric) songs from this album! And the song chino meantioned in the spin interview: "It's very... sludgy, like a chainsaw-type of riff but very slow."... what! the! fuck!!! *excited*
