Happy early birthday friendo! I say there's a pretty solid chance you'll be jamming the new album tomorrow.

So what's everybody's plan for the first listen, whether leak or official release? Smoke, drink, both? Headphones, sound system?

I'll just dim the lights and smoke a bowl. Probably listen through my Apple TV and soundbar.

Surround sound cranked up. Lights dim. Maaaybe some visuals on the OLED tv I dunno. Definitely have a drink, no smoke. Don't smoke anymore these days.

I actually went back to Fear Inoculum today because I hadn't given it another go for two or three years now.

Nope. Still dogshit.

I like and could remember a total of 1 song on that album. Pneuma.

I liked it when it came out but it hasn't aged well for me. Though I still think Pneuma is one of the best songs they've ever written.

I really appreciate it. Yeah I'll be 40 tomorrow and Deftones have been a constant in my life for so long and experiencing this album will be very special.

Seen a JB Hi Fi worker (Australian retail) with the CD so that's another place it's in the wild then.

I vaguely remember Ohms leaked maybe a day or two early? This one seems to be out and about sooner.

In terms of first listen I'd like to go for a nice walk/run to it.

Pneuma's fine, but it's still just them thinly stretching out earlier better songs like Schism and The Patient.

As hard as it tries to disguise itself as meditative and epic, the whole album is woefully insubstantial. All the same tricks over and over again. No hooks, nor any genuinely captivating contemplative trips like Reflection.

A quite unbelievably boring record.

If they can get there and buy it before the store closes... we'll all be their friends forever.
