Holy shit

[DeftonesNZ]

Verses are pretty straightforward metal, the chorus are still heavy but more sludgy and odd sounding,Chino's doing some cool stuff vocally, kind of going a bit abstract with it. It sounds like it's going to sound really huge on the actual record.

Musically, sounds awesome, very dark. The vocals seem a bit weird, not really sure how it's supposed to sound, but then, maybe it just needs to be played more. Can't wait to hear the whole thing. Hell, can't wait to hear the whole album.

Kind of reminds me of Melanie from the eros days but with Chino going weirder with it.

Thanks a lot! Sounds awesome, I love the guitar during the chorus especially, very sludgy and dark, and I'll be interested in hearing how the vocals sound on the song on the album. Definitely a heavier, more raw-sounding vibe, hopefully the vocals won't sound too polished. Probably a song Stephen got his own way on, surely.

The guitar during the verse has a Faith No More Jim Martin era sound to it.

your the man

[King Leer]

very very underwhelming...

Doomed User sounds pretty rad. Hope it isn't too cleanly produced on the record.

Performance of Prayers/Triangles is a touch disappointing though. Chino doesn't even sing the end of the last chorus, leaving poor Sergio on his own.

He seemed a bit all over the place at times, though the verses sound great, and some great screams. Might be wrong but seems like he forgot the lyrics a bit. Overall I liked it, good performance, but I'm sure it'll be a stronger performance next time.

[Diplo]

Finally they're doing something really different. Waiting for a proper release to judge it.

I like the style of Doomed User but I need to hear the studio version. Wish they'd release it soon.

Seems like P/T is another song Chino can't pull off live then. Hopefully it gets better and he stops missing choruses. But he did leave Sergio to sing the high notes in Swerve and Sextape choruses so this is probably how it works. It was definitely underwhelming though sadly.

Thanks for posting the first link to Doomed User. I think with this recording you can hear the guitars more clearly (it's shortened):

I really wish Chino would take some proper vocal coaching. He sounds terrible on P/T, all the highs sound off key, even the low verses are performed poorly. You just don't get to take a few months off and then sound so bad on your new shit premiere, kinda lame if you ask me. Pretty happy with this setlist though.

Impossible to make an opinion out of Doomed User, the performance is a fucking mess and you can clearly tell the vocals are way off.

I have no idea why he doesn't. There's nothing wrong with having vocal coaching, loads of pros do, and at his age I think it's especially important. He surely can't be satisfied with sounding that off key every time he has to 'attack' a vaguely difficult line.
