Does anyone else notice quite a big difference in the mix going from Diamond Eyes (the song) to Royal?

Kinda. Royal's volume suddenly gets evidently louder around 2:13/14.

i am a little disappointed with the new album, it felt like Team Sleep second album, like an experiment album and i don't think it is shit but just doesn't measure up to the last two albums at all.

thats my very brief view on the new album.

"sounds like team sleep"

lol wut

Sergio doesn't do any vocals on the album, I'm pretty sure.

Gore · May 23, 2016, 04:14 AM

It sounded a bit like Sergio was singing with Chino on a part of the chorus but listening again I think you're right.
He does sing live though and it sounds terrible.

I've started to realise how much I'm falling in love with this album. I really liked it from the first moment I listened to it but it's sinking further and further under my skin every time I hear it now. There's something about it that lulls you in over time and it's got me hooked. What an album. So pleased with it.

I think some people are going to be surprised by how much it grows on them in the next few months.

Hmmm, a case of the emperors new clothes, this album just doesn't have much depth - same deal with KNY. Half ideas, copy and pasted together, generic pop-leaning vocal melodies with chino going over old ground lyrically.

Although, Rubicon comes to life in a live setting.

"I didn't enjoy working on the album very much, it took me a long time to get used to the songs. When I first heard them I thought that the band was trying too hard. It took me a while to figure out where I was going to fit in"

Jim Martin quote in 1992 talking about Faith No More. He was gone within a year....those quotes sound familiar?

Steph ain't going nowhere. He is just as much Deftones as Chino is.

Holy shit. You're right, Steph is as good as gone. You should probably just leave the board for good. The band is now over. No reason to be here.

If anything, Gore shows you just how important Steph is to this band. He came in after the fact to do his parts and this album mostly sucks.

They need him to be a major part of the writing, or they will fail again.

They'll fail against your expectations, you mean?

He was saying they were going to be done within a year of KNY releasing too. His crystal ball ain't so crystal clear.

Geometric Headdress is the Pink Cellphone of Gore. Just one weird ass song that takes really long to get into. I haven't yet.

Dryalex12 · May 28, 2016, 02:19 AM

so for no real apprent reason. I thought what would Xenon would sound like if its chorus was swapped with Rubicon. Anyone else think it would song good?

only pieces remain · May 28, 2016, 06:07 AM

the above two posts make my head fucking hurt.

pinata89 · May 28, 2016, 06:24 AM

There is no Pink Cellphone on this album. If there were, it would be Phantom Bride (and that's reaching at straws). This album has no outlandish tracks, in my opinion. The flow is pretty good.

QuoteStephen's real grievance was more due to the fact that we'd have these two-week writing sessions, and then we'd go away. We weren't hanging out, and that's what he was missing. He formed the band to hang out with his friends. So he was like, "We do this music and go home. Where's our friendship?" We got to talk about that later. It's all cool.

Yep sounds like he's all about the money to me
