My Review after 3 listens

1.   "Prayers/Triangles"     3:38 - This is a good song 3/5
2.   "Acid Hologram"     4:06 - A decent song 2/5
3.   "Doomed User"             4:27 - Not a good song 1/5   
4.   "Geometric Headdress" 3:29 - Dont like this one either, the vocals sound like crap, 1/5
5.   "Hearts/Wires"             5:21 - Best song on the album for me, pretty solid 4/5
6.   "Pittura Infamante"     4:04 - Pretty decent song 2/5
7.   "Xenon"                     3:17 - Dont like this one 1/5
8.   "(L)MIRL"                     5:02 - Dont see the big deal about this one, cool intro 2/5
9.   "Gore"                     4:59 - Kind of a throw back Deftones song, vocals still kind of sound like crap 3/5
10.   "Phantom Bride"         4:53 - This song would have been good if it werent for the lyrics 2/5
11.   "Rubicon"                     4:58 - Dont see the appeal of this one, maybe with a couple more listens 2/5

Ouch! haha. It doesn't surprise me that you do not like the record since you have their newer stuff at the bottom of the list. I like about 6 songs on gore, but I also love their newer stuff. I can literally play DE all the way through with out skipping and about 4 songs on Koi are some of my favorite Deftone songs. I love that each Deftones cd has their own sound.

Prayers/Triangles video will come out tuesday

My favorite Steph and Chino part is the breakdown of Pittura where he yells "ON TOP OF THE CRUUUUUUUUUUX" .. That shit is dope.

[2MoreHours]

What are everyone's favorite individual moments from the members?

Chino- at the end of Xenon when he says "The desire to partake UH!  In the violence."  I just noticed it today.  It sounds so sexy.

Steph-The last 2 minutes of Hearts/Wires.  He kind of has some old school Deftones vibe going.  Sounds badass

Frank-Xenon I just love his parts throughout the whole song.

Sergio- Hearts/Wires his little note bend in the verses.  Has a classic punchy Deftones feel to it as well.

Abe- Doomed User  I just like he flat out rocks the whole song.  Pretty straight forward groove but sounds badass.

[NYRexall]

Another Deftones record, another sector of the fanbase bitching about the production.

[TheyCallMeP]

Chino: His vocals in Acid Hologram remind me of his ATF singing, so that for nostalgia. I also really like him in the chorus of Geometric Headdress and his tone in the verse of (L)MIRL.

Abe: His drumming in Gore I think is really interesting to me personally. He is flying all over the place! I feel like he is also very strong in Rubicon and Xenon.

Steph: While Jerry steals the show for most people with Phantom Bride, I notice Steph holds his own pretty well. From the verses to the heavy ending, I see you big guy.

Sergio: I might be in the minority but I enjoy Prayers/Triangles a lot. A big reason why is the interplay of the bass and guitar I hadn't heard until I listened with headphones. The guitars in that song all around are hypnotic.

Frank: Even though I'm not a huge fan of the song, Frank's parts in Xenon are dope. It's weird I don't like this track more because both him and Abe kill this.

Well I love everyones work on Hearts/Wires, but I really dig the start when he says nothing can save me now its what I believe. Then they keep building up suspense then doing little pauses then blast right into the first course.

Really?  I would have thought that people who preferred the newer music would be less likely to enjoy Gore, honestly.  I'm not an old head, not from the Adrenaline/ATF days anyway.  I joined the cult sometime between White Pony and Self Titled, and so Gore fits my desires perfectly.  I feel like Gore sounds the most like the S/T-SNW era, which is my favorite era of Deftones.

What are everyone's favorite individual moments from the members?

Steph - Prayers/Triangles verse riff...reminds me of his HITE riff. Those metal ass riffs on AH (the part where Chino whispers) are also awesome.
Frank - Everything he does on Acid Hologram.
Chino - Hard choice, but I'm leaning towards the Geometric Headdress chorus.
Abe - The ending of Geometric Headdress.
Sergio - If that main riff on PB is him and not Steph, then that. Otherwise, not sure.

Yeah. I just really don't think they sound anything like when they first began to me, but I don't see Gore as a continuation of Koi either. I think it kind of stands on its own. Gore sounds pretty jagged like buzz saws against the wood grain.

this album is my fucking shit, y'all

Right, it definitely doesn't sound like they did when they first began, that's for sure.  Again, though, I do believe the sound is closer to that of their 2000's era records than it does their 2010's.  But yes, definitely nothing like the 1990's era.

[Inkblades]

I'm usually hypercritical of how Chino's voice sounds on a track, but the fact that his voice sounds more weary and weathered actually fits the music of Gore perfectly.

[SMLiberator]

On the topic of vocals, does anyone know whether Chino uses any sort of pitch correction? I mean, we all know he struggles with keeping notes in tune live when he's jumping around, especially when he assumes the shape of MegaChino. But then again, you have Team Sleep's Woodstock Sessions and he sounds perfect there.

I'm asking this because I'm getting the impression there are some notes he sings throughout Gore that sound ever-so-slightly out of tune, such as the first "you" in Phantom Bride, where he sounds a little flatter and the "on top of the crux" part in Pittura where he sounds slightly sharper. However, I also get the impression he used auto-tuning in SNW, the clearest example being the really high "SUCK you in" in Cherry Waves.

I do not know if I have a point. Maybe he used auto-tune in SNW but not in Gore.

Is there a reason yall changed it Satan? Lmao
