Ohms: pre-release hype thread

[downtownpony]

Sorry to hear you got fired, man.

I still think you're taking it too far.

[Drop-Dead]

Ok guys, been talking with Vesanic about this. I've been through countless leaks over the past 20 years, die hard fans didnt stop buying an album or supporting the band because a shitty leaked track but surely I didn't changed the layout to dark colours to turn SharingLungs into a russian leak forum, so don't get confused with the looks of it. Here's my point of view...We're a community, everyone is free of talking about that reddit or something leak. You'll probably be listening to a leaked song, let's not pretend nobody clicks on that download link, we know how things work. We can't forbid you to do that. Because of this LEAKS AREN'T A TABOO SUBJECT BUT SHARING DIRECT LINKS HERE IS! So please don't share them.
Feel free to talk but please respect the band and each other.

Emotions are high and patience is growing thin but I'm happy that we got to hear a few minutes of new material to really get the hype train goin..

Lockdown the forum just to be safe! Existing members only until album release.

Anyone who's heard of the new tracks, Stef's tuning is for sure lower than drop E based off those heavy songs right? I couldn't tell based off the quality but the guitar sounded either in Drop E or lower than that on those tracks. I remember Sergio saying they played in a new tuning for the album

[rumors]

We are waiting it's all we can do really.

Also, ain't shit happening until @rumors pops his head in.

Yes, he is! It is clear from his TC Electronic video months ago (where he is playing his pink 8 string) that he is a half step down. Rehersal pictures on the band's Instagram also show him playing power chords from the lowest string. And on the clip Abe showed weeks ago, that riff is just an Eb power chord.

So probably not in a drop tuning at all, but a half step down. Tuned like Meshuggah, essentially-- so F-Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb.

Probably too obsessive on my part, but that's what the album wait has done for me!

(God knows what he's got going on if he's using a 9 string)

Rumors is in the room? Oh my! And yes kinda feels like WHO'S SIDE ARE YOU ON!

Easy we are all on the same Team....

Let's just say, whenever they show up, stuff happens.

No one knows who they really are, but it's either a band member or a part of the deftones team.

Now it's a motherfucking party. All we need is tokyodrifter to drop by and it will be a full on fiesta.

[976-EVIL]

You Guys make me laugh...
Beyond Excited for New Tones!!!

[DenakDW]

maybe tomorrow? maybe friday? god, i can barely wait.

[Gaz]

It's always good when rumors pops back up!

[DeftonesNZ]

I'm just excited there's stuff on the way, I got into a lot of different bands largely thanks to Deftones and how they opened my eyes to different genres etc. so there's always someone releasing something, but when new Deftones is on the way it's still different for me.

There's something special about it, sounds fucked up but when there's a lot bullshit going on in the world or just my own life hearing new Deftones or knowing something is coming is one of those treats that just cuts through all the shit and makes me feel like everything's going to be fine.

Same... isn't this what "Koi no yokan" means?

[ChubbyChino]

the hype is almost as huge as my penis

[rainnyx4]

Anyone want to comment on the song compositions? Like, are there solos, intros/outros, segues, more than two riffs per song, etc.? I get really annoyed when this band gets lazy. KNY was my favorite of theirs since WP because of how fleshed out and complex that album was.
