So, I might have missed this discussion already but...

Dude, I was right there with you... the very night I popped it in the player, boom she lays that stuff down on me... and for the whole month, just kept giving me hope that she'd come back, I even biked to her friggin' house at 1 am for her in the pouring rain just to show her my love for her... and on the pod I had DE... so for me, that hole album is her... I love it. I dig it and I need it. she's still gone but the DE album is to me just a painting of that hole month pineing for her.

I can understand where you're coming from, guy, but not with this album.  I had lost touch with their music for a few years and then SNW came out at a time when I was going through some serious shit.  Deftones music really got me through some rough times.

Well,

I just can't figure out what in the holy fuck the creator of this thread is asking us.  First, he loves the album for 2-3 weeks and makes his 'friends sit through' it 'at least more than a hundred times'.  Then his girlfriend doesn't trust him anymore, and dumps him, because he spends four days drunk/high (most girls are less than impressed by this sort of behavior, fyi) and hangs out with an ex (gee, I wonder why she doesn't trust him).  Then he says he has 'nothing but hate for the lyrics'.  Did he have nothing but hate for them during that first 2-3 weeks?  Did his breakup change his mind?  Is this the 'personal falling out' that he describes?  Now he 'refuses to listen to' the album (all of this within a 2-3 week period, mind you).  Then he asks for a 'Thumbs up/Down'.  Thumbs up/Down to what?  The lyrics?  The album?  His breakup?

I for one am throwing a big Thumbs up to his girlfriend.  Sounds like she made the best decision of her life.

Obviously i was asking about everyone's opinion on the album, and giving the story as to why i dislike it. If you didn't get that then i don't know what to tell you. As far as your comment about my girlfriend, well...that i don't appreciate but it must be coming from someone who's more perfect than I. Oh and fyi, that girl refuses to part ways with me...i wonder why...kinda awkward at times, but yet i'm glad it's not ALL over yet.Having to sit around and be "friends" with a girl you don't quite know how to be friends with is really hard.

I felt like I could relate to a lot of what this kid was saying - especially the parts about making my friends listen to it a million times and being drunk/high for a long periods of time. But, where I feel my story has the biggest contrast to the topic creator's story is that I do not have a girlfriend; instead, I had plenty of casual sex while listening to it, and subsequently, I feel obligated to say: I fucking love Diamond Eyes.

At first I didn't really dig Sextape, but then I came on a girl's tits while it played and I thought, "Yeah, this works."

thumbs way the fuck up from me. nothing but good vibes come at me from this album. it gets me set for the world pretty well.
