I've ironed some clean clothes for Friday, just to be careful.

I guess you can lump me into those weirdos because I am not impressed. I'll give it another straight through listen once the album is out officially and I can listen in better quality, but I think my main issues are the vocals, the song structures, and how much the album appears to be lacking the "Stephen feel." I think the end of "Phantom Bride" might be the most Stephen moment of the album.

I don't agree. There are songs that have the 'Stephen feel', and there are some songs that are much different than a S/T wall of sound type song. It seems like the 'Stephen feel' songs are 'Doomed User' and 'Gore'. This is a very diverse and eclectic record. It seems like it's truly a collaborative album. It's a cohesive package despite the songs being so different because it feels Deftones, IMO.

I think I'm gonna do a best of of the reactions to this album.

Yup. His guitar is there, it's down tuned, but it feels/sounds uninspired to me. Trust me, I want to love it, but I just don't. Phantom Bride is probably the most solid song IMO and it doesn't really sound much like the Deftones.

yoooou waste your liiiiife, trapped in your void - where you will stay, always.

[ominousnimbus]

The second half is absolutely stronger. I don't think it's so much that it sounds like two albums, though - "Acid Hologram" and even "Geometric Headdress" would also fit alongside a lot of the later songs.

More than anything, it's just that "P/T" and "Doomed User" are really weak relative to the rest of the album. My initial impression is that the record would be stronger if DU were simply left out and we had 10 tracks. Probably the worst pair of lead singles (in terms of how they compare with the rest of the tracks) I can remember. They're clearly the worst two songs here, IMO.

But yeah, I'm already getting the temptation to just start with "Xenon" sometimes. That 5-track stretch may end up among the strongest in their catalog.

lets be real. if Chino did an entire album with justin bieber you would jack off to it claiming its the greatest thing you ever heard,....you're not exactly objective

I feel disappointed, i was expecting something better honestly, it doesn't beat DI, KNY nor SNW in my opinion.

[DFTNSHXGRM]

This album has bits and pieces of their last 4 albums, thrown into a blender. That's what Gore sort of reminds me of. It's a little bit of everything that I love about them. It even has some ATF vibes in Geometric Headdress. Has a lot of Self-Titled vibes as well. Its not just the excitment, but I really really love their new sound. The album has a very "personal" or "sentimental" vibe with the lyrics.. You can tell they spent a LOT of time on this record. It paid off.

I'm not sure if I'll ever need to listen to DE or KNY ever again after this record. This blows them completely out of the water.

I agree with you here. I have issues with SNW's production, but the songs themselves are solid. This album, however, is a disappointment. I had issues with the repetitive structure in KNY, but still liked the album overall. I enjoyed the direction the songs were taking, but his feels like it came out of left field and I have trouble comparing it to the other albums in their discography in a favorable fashion.
