How Can The Album Be Real If The Eyes Aren't Real???

Maybe that's the entire point........to be misleading. Some sort of illusion maybe, IDK. They've been cryptic with this entire rollout though. I know it's a stretch to think there is more to this than meets the eye (SEE what I did there) but with everything else being so mysterious I think it's possible. Not likely, just possible.

I'm surely entirely wrong. But it's just fun to wonder. Maybe it's because I have two daughters. I've always encouraged them to embrace life and enjoy all the little moments as much as you can. Use your imagination, be creative. Be kind to everyone, no matter how they treat you. sure, I've also taught them that trust must be earned. Don't be gullible and get taken advantage of.
For those of you that have children, you probably understand my perspective a little better. It's like.......my kids are 13 and 17. Until a few years ago, we straight up refused to tell them Santa wasn't real. Why? Because it was *fun*. They've known Santa isn't real for a long time. My youngest knew it when she was like 7 lol. But they still cherish those memories of Christmas Eve. One night a deer walked in our yard, through the snow, on Christmas Eve and I recorded it. I told them I had a video of a reindeer. They knew it was fake, but I played the part so well. They have told  me it's one of their best holiday memories. Well, new Deftones albums are my Christmas. Always have been and always will be.

You need to be a bit cynical these days, especially online. But don't let it detract from your enjoyment of life

If i'm not mistaken the frogger one was on the Back to School (mini maggit) EP enhanced cd...

cool, i actualy have that cd, but i thought it just had the WP EPK. haven't tried it in 15 years i bet. just check, my computer won't play the enhanced stuff now, but i know i used to watch the EPK on it. bought the cd in 2001. checked and my WP and S/T enhanced cds still work at least

[Draken]

Mine's in storage else I'd confirm it.

whats up peeps its been a while, excited for the new album.....what's up with the dots on the website?

[theataraxian]

whats up peeps its been a while, excited for the new album.....what's up with the dots on the website?

This is a long explanation, so bear with me:

Deftones have been rolling out this viral marketing campaign that includes a cryptic image comprised of dots on their website. It fades into view after you sign up for the mailing list, and every day the image slowly changes. They've also been using Spotify's animated Canvas feature on key songs whose first letters spell out the-album-which-shall-not-be-named. So far, a bunch of us have been working on trying to decrypt the meaning behind the dot patterns, and after a ton of combined effort between SharingLungs, the DeftonesLive community, and the reddit community at r/deftones, we determined that the dots actually make up a complicated matrix that produces a morse code sequence. When decoded, it translates to "Don't smell your own farts." If you take the numerical value of each letter, add them all together, and then square it, you get the number 18006992837, which is actually the phone number 1-800-69-WAVES. If you call the number, there's a muffled recording of seagulls and dolphins yelling the phrase "TWO MORE HOURS."

Yes, I'm a decade long lurker. I rarely log in. Just want to be a part of the conversation. Don't scold me.

Nice. My favorite meme of the not-yet-to-be-named album era so far.
