I like it but it feels a bit too Deftones by-numbers to me. It doesn't excite me like the rest of the album.

Genesis is one of those many Deftones songs that's so close to being great, which makes it eternally frustrating. All they needed to do was unpack the bridge a little more. That moment at 3:35 when Steph starts playing that other riff got me so pumped...and then back to the chorus riff? In the words of Joe Biden, come on man!

WHAT. You guys are serious? I was actually worried about this album because I found Ohms and Genesis underwhelming at first, but after many listens of the album those songs now rank among the best. I seriously can't believe you're criticizing the bridge into chorus riff right now lol

Writing 90% of an amazing song and calling it a day is the story of this band's career.

If only rainny was always in the studio to tell them what they're doing wrong.

  • I think you know the truth.
I'll definitely take a 90% amazing song over a 100% shitty song.

Please elaborate, I'm very interested in what you mean by that. Btw you've been reported to the admins.

For those of u who “dont get” Urantia.... it will grow legs in time and you will likely deem it a sleeper. Its like a lot of their music, dont hear it at first but later its like bang! U dont understand why u didnt get it before. That song is so 80’s and now at the same time somehow and i like it a lot. But im also an 80s baby so i heard all those sounds and songs that remind of this song, then. Its like nostalgia but i guess it isnt?

Anyone else think the song poll should be reset now so we can see how different is now that it’s been out for a few months?

Unpopular take: I don’t think that Terry is the right producer for this record.

It's a good fucking album with the right producer, if you don't "get it" now then you never will

What on God's flat Earth would make you think that?
