Was there any kind of artwork released for a cover, or something that could work as one? This song is looking really lonely with no artwork in my iTunes.

Not official, not mine, but anyways

I swear, if I have to see one more of those half-assed new Deftones covers with those stupid shapes and that shitty font à la Koi No Yokan and Leathers, I'll scream.

This was used on their website during the Eros process. It's also Eros (the god) on the picture

I'm wondering though :


Is it one of the songs that were finished, or is it one of those songs Chino still had to lay vocals on?

I mean, I would rather see the DE/KNY Chino coming up with lyrics and vocals like those, but then again at the time of the creation of the album, they were really optimistic and positive, so if it had been at the time, it would make sense too. Besides I think I'm spotting that grain in his voice that kind of faded afterwards.

Wow, did not expect this, such a beautiful atmospheric song.

Really surprised this isn't being talked about more. People must abandon this site when there isn't a new album on the horizon lol. Thanks for the rip Luisch

Or when then aren't updates from the band or live shows... Not much to talk about right?
And somewhere, There's someone who cares. With a heart of gold, To have and to hold.

Martin

Amazing. I did not see that coming at all. Amazing. Love it. Cried too. RIP Chi.

White Wrist

RIP CHI.

Great action...one year after his death.

Caín

Thank you, Chino.
Touching song, great move.

RIP Chi

feels good to have new deftones track....awesome song......was there any studio version of melanie...released other than the live version...that song rocks too

Sadly not.

Quote from: Diplo on Apr 14, 2014, 11:46 AMWhen was the vocals recorded ?
It's a demo ? A final version ?

The one thing we do know is that all the instrumentals were recorded and about half the vocals before Chi's accident. Whether any mixing was done or not, I don't know. I would assume so because recording was going on for about half a year

Yup, you're right, Romain.
Searching the machine might reveal what you don't want to know

Bridge reminds me of Fist. Still like the song, I was a little hyped yesterday when I first heard it, but its definitely a grower.

Deadradio

love this song! Glad we got to hear it!

Smile

We move together
We cruise till the end
Screwing and shooting our way out

You want to know what it's like?
then watch this
You want to feel again?

You wanted this
Welcome to my world
Now
You want feel again

Smile
You're born again (x2)
Do you feel wet? do you feel love?

We've sailed through hell knows
They've sank but we float on

You want go for a ride?
It's over
You want to feel it again?
You've always said that you know my worth
And now you want to feel it again

Smile
You're born again (x2)
Do you feel wet? do you feel love?

We cruise together
It's me and you till the end

Smile
You're born again (x4)
Do you feel wet? do you feel love?

God bless you.
It's a really beatiful song, as some of you said, like the next step from SNW, like a perfect continuation on the way of the evolution of the band, and very emotive on how it was released.
I really hope they will release more stuff like this, even if it's not entirely produced. It sounds perfect to me. I love it already.

Yes yes, Deftones, yes yes, heavy metal, yes yes, nü metal, yes yes, fucking queer, yes yes...

it's perfect old-school deftones.  only chino could make the phrase "smile" work and sound sinister

Finally got an opportunity to sit still and listen to this without any co-workers buzzing around.

What a great song! I absolutely love the false ending at around 3:10...something I have been missing in Deftones songs for a while now.

Exactly ! Love the way he sings, really old school, calm and melancholic.
Also, I'm really enjoying the bass of Chi.
