Eros

[Draken]

Anyone else remember this? IDK who it really is or if it is in fact an Eros demo but it's pretty damn groovy nonetheless. Wish I knew...

Pretty sure that's not them.

So who originally leaked the  instrumental to "Dallas"???  And especially, who NAMED it? What I'm asking is if it probably wasn't the band that leaked it, did the person who leaked it decide to call it Dallas just because we know Deftones had a tentative song title called Dallas? Or is that for certain the track THEY were calling Dallas? Hope this question makes sense.

...

So, "fan named". Ok thanks....
And holy shit wld that have been magical for them to tour like that and be there for a show!? I feel like the band really really changed after Chi and Eros' days and not in a bad way but i miss the band i knew them as if u get me. They (especially Chino) are in a way better headspace now compared to then but the music was a lot different to me and always will be. It was meant to be though.

...

Yeah I noticed that too... Warner Bros is like fuckit

Yeah that blew my mind. Not the first time Daniel P Carter has played it on Radio 1 though. He did it a while back.

You are 100% correct.

WB owns the masters.  This is how the music industry works if you don't keep all publishing rights from the get go.  Sorry to bring up a old message, but it seemed like people weren't believing in your statement.

I think you are talking shit

You seem to think that labels just pour money over artists, and then the artists are free to whatever the fuck they want anyway.
If that's not naive thinking I don't know what is

There's a slight difference between Metallica and Deftones when it comes to affording to buy back their catalog though.

Yes there is. So what's your point?

Digging up old comments, you obviously couldn't understand I was taking the piss (that's a British term if you don't know it)

What does "taking the piss" mean to Brits? Maybe i missed something, just curious to know

[sharinglungs]

It means he was joking around.

Aah ik thanks

No offense Gaz, but it really doesn't seem like you were joking,sorry   

I don't know what deftones exact deal with warner was back then, and neither does anyone else here. but I would guess they signed away the master rights, pretty standard in those days

The comments he's made in this interview give real hope of them actually finisihing it, part of me had wished that them reuniting with Terry may reignite that particular flame. I know they've said previously they may never finish it or might only release a few tracks as an EP, but I do hope they finish it as much as it must be hard to go back to it.

[Draken]

they need to just finish it already, not like they don't have the time...

[Visionz]

Nothing new to see there. they play Chi's songs every night when touring and rehearsing. I guess its the whole "finishing" the songs that Chi wont get to play or hear that he helped create? Must be. Chino writes songs by reacting to the music. But it seems he feels he would be too uncomfortable reacting to these noises again after all this time. And does time make it easier to revisit one day bc of the healing process? Or does time as it goes on make it harder and less likely? We dont know.  Nobody does..... dont hold your breath. It will be a nice surprise if something happens then

I remember hearing stef say like a month ago that the entire Eros album is finished instrumentally, so its up to Chino / the label if they wanna put out Eros at some point. If Stef is telling the truth, maybe Chino could start thinking of melodies / lyrics right now just for fun. I dont see them releasing Eros until they're near retirement, though

That would suck but probably makes sense they would wait until that kind of moment... Stef did say recently that the album was complete instrumentally but he also went on to say that typically when Chino goes to finish his vocals over the music they tend to have to rewrite/rearrange the instrumentation a little to suit Chino's vox. So, it's like double dipping, but according to him it's the way they've always done it.

and I don't know what the future for live gigs will be but I hope they can get back to it next year, if not, then they have to figure out another way. Releasing more music is of course something I personally wouldn't mind seeing (Ohms, Black Stallion, Eros, re-issues/re-mixes, dvds, compilations, etc.) I know like me, their entire rabid fan base would most likely buy up anything they decide to officially release...
