Gore

[Seven]

Wtf is wrong with this butthurt babie!

Dude shut up, You are the troll here, I am not that guy! I already said, I'm cool with Deftones apart from the chino trashing other bands and fanboys too! I'm giving you a example! That's not cool!

[illthrowROCKS@U]

You're butthurt about comments Chino made, what is it now, fourteen years ago? YOU'RE A WEIRDO. Fuck off, weirdo.

This really describes him perfectly. He's just fucking weird. He is clearly using multiple handles on here. It's creepy...

[Seven]

Lol! Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you.

[Penicks]

you use a portuguese google which probably means you are portuguese which explains a lot

you are the worst people on the internet, or maybe second to indians

[Seven]

No! I have Brazilian Friends and Portuguese they are people who are very comfortable in social situations and feel a sense of community with people and nature. This includes strong family values which creates families that are very close and happy together! I don't think it's true that!

[gwenudo]

omfg..
dude is clearly a troll.. i wouldve stopped replying to him ages ago Ink.. not worth it..
especially when he kept repeating the same things over and over again...
oh and lets not forget the racist remarks..

THIS ALBUM THOUGH!
Its been awhile and i havnt really heard Gore that much, but when tracks from Gore come on, i dont skip them.
Which means thats a good thing, because i generally skip DE and KNY songs (besides rosemary and poltergeist)
Favorite track is probably Acid though, cant get over ittttt.

Definitely Acid Hologram. And yes, Gore is a lot better than KNY and DE to me, too!

You have my respect (from a BRAZILIAN).

I can't see how someone can say Gore is better than any other Deftones album. Even when they listen to no more than two songs. I don't know; maybe from a technical view it's better. Not saying that if you like more songs of an album then that album is good.

Also, what's wrong with Diamond Eyes?

I feel the very exact opposite of that guy...

SNW and ST are my two favorites, and DE is by far my least favorite. Koi was much better, but I think Gore is their best album since SNW for sure.

[Seven]

Yup, DE is my least favorite. KNY is weak. Gore is the worst!

Agreed.

For me, Gore marks a low point in the Deftones career, and I'm not sure if they'll ever bounce back from it.  It sounds like a band trying to do their best Deftones impression between the music and lyrics.  Some songs like Gore and Doomed User are heavy for the sake of being heavy, but in the end not very compelling between bland riffs, strained vocals, and uninspired lyrics.  The whole album in fact is filled with pedestrian lyrics that ultimately say nothing and come off either forced or insipid.  Chino's faltering voice does nothing to push their immediacy leither.  It appears the sedentary, unencumbered life, while making for a happier existence for the band, also makes for a boring performance that serves as merely the fulfillment of a servant obligation enabling the band to tour, get some press, and sell some outrageously-priced yet also uninspired merchandise.  It's a sad state of affairs, but after almost 30 years it's also not that much of a shocker.

This is Gore!

Different opinions and musical tastes, that's how. Everyone wants different things from a band as diverse as Deftones. Sometimes I feel like Gore is my favourite Deftones album, but I think it's because it's not as old as WP and ST, so although it's not still hyped up for me, the songs haven't been played as much as songs from the other albums. But even so, it's easily in my top three. It's hard to explain. Firstly, I love pretty much all Deftones songs, obsessively, so I'm not a music critic or anything. I guess for me it just feels like a return to their pre Diamond Eyes music.

See, Diamond Eyes was a positive, optimistic album. They've said so themselves, they needed to make music to get through what happened to Chi and they tried to make something optimistic. Which is great, but I've always loved their darker, moodier music. KNY is like an expansion of that Diamond Eyes sound; more creative and an evolution of it, but still in that same mindset. Gore is like...them being unafraid to let other emotions seep into their music. The lyrics and the music take on a much darker tone (not always) than anything from DE and KNY, yet it isn't another WP or ST. But yeah, anyway, I love Gore.

On a separate note, I think (L)MIRL would easily be my favourite Deftones song of all time if they hadn't switched the mood halfway through to something happier. I've made my peace with it and I still love it, but that intro is absolutely beautiful, reminds me of Digital Bath, and the first half, the depressing-sounding part...I just wish they'd carried that atmosphere through to the rest of the song.

You kinda just answered your own question there, didn't you? 

But in all seriousness, I'll tell you why I like Gore more than some of their other albums. I think Gore is definitely better than Adrenaline and Koi because the songwriting feels more varied and exploratory. Adrenaline's a fun record, but a lot of the songs feel very similar. I guess the songwriting on Koi is okay, but I dunno, I just don't feel much from that album. It doesn't move me. I'd probably love it if had been the first Deftones album I'd ever heard. Admittedly, Koi has better production, but I'll take interesting songwriting over slick production.

I'm on the fence about it being better than SNW and DE. SNW might actually have more exploratory songwriting than Gore, but the production is just as bad and it's not as cohesive as an album. SNW has so many brilliant moments, but they feel so patched together. DE isn't as exploratory as either of those albums, but I admire how it's a tight, no frills album.

A lot of people don't here like it, but Diamond Eyes is a good record. If I had a complaint, I think a couple of the singles try too hard to be radio-friendly (Diamond Eyes and Sextape, specifically), but the deep cuts are solid. But if Gore had the production of DE and KNY, it would easily be the best album of the Sergio era.
