[phil for real]

Yeah it blows my mind that they've been doing it this long and are still just consistent with every release.  These dudes are unreal.

Oh well. So here am I, stupid newbie trying his luck. At least I'm honest 

But if one got 0,1% of chance to ge the leak instead of 0, gotta give it a shot!

Not gonna get my hopes up though. But it would be nice.

Anyone want to do a track-by-track post of their opinions on the songs? Might as well, we got nothing left to do but enjoy the music and share opinions.

Sure.

1.) P/T - Solid opener. Nothing too galvanizing. A good, not great song. It flows well into the album and makes more sense as part of the whole package.

2.) Acid Hologram - Slow burn. Most of us have heard it. I love the axe work going into the chorus and abe surrounding steph's chords. Has a bit of an uplifting feel to it despite the heaviness.

3.) Doomed User - Initially I wasn't feeling the song, but it grew on me. The mix was initially an issue as the guitar felt a little garage rock-esque. Still the heavier sound on the chorus is a definite win. Chino's chorus work is reminiscent of KNY.

4.) Geometric Headdress - Atmospheric. Frank is all over this song. A very dramatic, nearly film soundtrack type song. It has tension. Abe once again steals a lot of this show, his drums surrounding the song in a stampede.

5.) Hearts/Wires - More of a ballad. A bit slower than the songs before it. Abe's percussion work is great here. I love the intro of the song. Starts very slow, kind of like Natalie Portman on Team Sleep. Well the original song, anyway.

6.) Pittura Infamante - Has an 80's vibe to it. Flows well from Hearts/Wires as it isn't a very heavy song. Chino's 'oooo'ing on the chorus is a nice touch.

7.) Xenon - Abe rocks the shit out of this song. The off-beat drumming is stellar. The guitar is similar to Doomed User. There is a tweak to the guitar to make it squeal a bit.

8.) (L)mir - A dark, atmospheric lead in blends into a bass heavy song, with some guitar licks. Not a typical Deftones song. There isn't a heavy wave of sound enveloping the track. It's a bit mellow.

9.) Gore - The heaviest song on the album. Abe's drum work is fantastic. Steph really shines on this track. The eight string is in full effect here. The chords just punish you. Chino is singing his ass off on this song. Guttural screams.

10.) Phantom Bride - Cantrell's solo is great. It comes off as a very sentimental song. I am assuming most have heard it.

11.) Rubicon - Probably listened to this more than anything on this record. Up beat. Aggressive and loud, but not angry. Such a good tune. Very catchy. This should have been the single.

This. I have sent it to exactly one person that has been here since 06. That is it. Not because we are special or elitest, but because we can trust each other to explore the album amongst ourselves and take away some anxiety from waiting while knowqing the masses will get theirs soon and in higher quality.

Exactly. It's not even about it being "exclusive" to here, just so this quality doesn't get spread and people think this is actually the final product of a legit cd-rip.

You can be anxiously waiting for an album without being a part of a fan forum

But I get you guys. It's gonna be out there soon enough anyway. Cheers!
