"Ohms" - Deftones New Album

[mono]

Ceremony's chorus is so catchy

[buflen]

I'm slightly disappointed by the length of the record. I feel another song could have easily fit on it, especially that there is a good 2+ minutes of just synth.

I kinda feel the same.

What's so special about Pompeji ? Apart from the synths, the verse, chorus is repetitive, and vocals don't change much around.

I can say the same for TLID and Radiant City. I feel they could've have done a bit more with 'em. The repetitiveness really irks me, as if there no pay off after the build up

visual tracklist!

[E-Money]

I disagree especially on Error. I think the whole song's great. I love how bouncy the groove and the riff is, and I think the vocal melody is really cool. And it means when it switches up, the chorus and the outro parts soar even more to me.

I really hope I grow to feel the same way. I absolutely love Steph at the end of the track. Some of the best 2 minutes of music they have ever done. Abe kills it too. Love it . Hope the beginning grows on me.

You've basically described pretty much every deftones song ever...

Or every song ever, really.

Do u hear that digital bath effect by Frank? Its used a couple times on the record i think

[buflen]

I'm going say something maybe sacrilegious, but as much as frank used to be too low in the mix, I feel he is almost too present on this album. *hides*

I do fully agree with you that the choruses and the second half of the song are the peaks. I think they'd lose the sense of release without the cool, brooding, bouncy build before.

Songs repeat sections. That's usually part of what makes them songs. I'd be more interested reading what you're not quite connecting with in those songs rather than a bland 'repetitive' criticism.

WASH YOUR FUCKING MOUTH OUT!

(You might be right, I haven't let this sink in enough to decide whether that might occasionally be the case here).

[Visionz]

May have said this but damn Pompeji is a straight up Deftones banger. In my top ten today. My go to

Chino hits some pretty high notes after the first chorus that I wish he did again later in the song. So my criticism of Pompeji is it actually isn't repetitive enough.

Is it Frank or guitar on Ceremony's bridge? Can't quite tell.

Theres always those pick drags either mixed with that effect or its one or the other.... they r both "related" in my head if that makes sense. U talking abt that digital bath/white pony effect right? Same one in Pompeji?

[ToneDef]

I like it. Happy it's heavy and dark. Impossible to form an actual opinion right now so I'll leave that to form over time. The standout for me on a first listen is The Spell Of Mathematics. It does irk me that as Chino's vocal range gets worse over time, he insists on trying to be more ambitious with it. He ain't pulling half of this shit off live. But yeah, quite happy with the album on a first listen. Very happy to hear Stef getting involved.

[Visionz]

Radiant is the track thats really been a grower for me. Im digging it. The main riff ah, a little idk? Love tje chorus and especially the second half. Im getting a feeling that im enjoying the "2nd half" of a lot of these songs more than the first. Its like 15 songs in 10 with a few interludes even though i only listen to it in whole. Cant wait to have it play through with no pause in between on vynil or cassette. Especially excited to play a deftones tape! btw, havent forgotten that genesis to me is one of the best Sergio era songs thus far along w Pompeji and TSOM. Like most it

Yeah, the part where Chino sings "The world we share was never there". It does sound a little bit like the Digital Bath water drip effect, so I guess it's Frank. I was thinking it could be a guitar with a crazy effects pedal.

The Ohms video has hit 3 million views. Genesis video is about 15,000 views away from 1 million. It'll get there. They also posted something about a "visual tracklist", so I guess they are doing a similar thing to the DE/WP anniversary Youtube video visualizer thingamajigs?
