EROS - no leak topic

[B_S_79]

Yeah I was also thinking maybe contacting whoever runs the one love for chi fb page? Or I am sure someone on here will have connections and insight on how to make this happen properly

Is that still active?

The one love fb page appeared so-(ish) but the website is not, there were a few other charities I tried scoping earlier, but they are not current either

the original leaker confirmed that asia, cindi, and mercedes from that one whiteboard picture were all just placeholder titles for songs on the album, but didnt confirm which songs these were placeholder titles for

Yes, some have already narrowed it down. I cannot remember now which was linked to which because there is a lot of information circulating I have had to process attempting to verify legit claims from illegitimate ones; it all makes my head spin. I am sure someone will chime in confirming the validity of what we are saying, LoL

Do you have a link to the confirmation?

It's not about the money, and yet it is (it's always about money). Like others pointed out here, the Eros material is special to them and it's sort of like this; you start a project with your friend (who you consider a brother) and collaborate together but then your friend unfortunately passes away before you can finish it. Someone then comes by, steals your work and puts it on display for the entire world to see without your consent and even profits from it.

I hope Deftones do polish up the songs and release an EP at the least, and share the profits with Chi's family.

Sometimes these types of leaks actually end up pushing the band to release things commercially, so don't lose all hope. Case in point, radiohead sold the full mini disc demos on bandcamp after someone leaked it.

Thank you. Does it only contain the first sheet, or I can't seem to find how to switch?

[RikshawHoward]

I don't understand why it keeps getting posted if you know they don't want it up.

[Spruance]

The band is raking in MILLIONS and MILLIONS these last few years after the tik tok brigade and the beer and the clothing line and the festival etc. I doubt they need charity over a few 18 year old demos leaking lmao

Beyoncé didn't want that one photo on the internet either. You know the end of the story.

Someone knows something about the trempest version with daron malakian track vocals that is this guy talking?

Wtf? this guy's saying there's a full version of Crest floating around?

Fuck Crest, what about Daron though?

[RikshawHoward]

It's not about charity, it's about doing the right thing. They clearly do not want this material out and everyone knows it. What sort of a fan would spit in the face of that, especially knowing the circumstances around the album?

It is out, period. Nothing they can do about it, like it or not.

Am I a bad guy for appreciating a pretty damn good job they did on it despite the circumstances? Should I also stop listening to SNW because Chino thinks it's a shitty album?

[RikshawHoward]

Chino intended to release SNW. He did not intend for Eros to get out, and that's very obvious.

You posted the same thing in Reddit. Donating to a charity and sending money to the band are two completely different fucking things.

Dude I don't understand why you are attempting to make this so controversial? No one is twisting your arm to donate it was an amazing idea for those of us that have been following for decades and were disrupted by the news of his death not just the album. Its only natural we are going to feel a little bit of a slight to our moral compass due to the circumstances surrounding

If you dont want to donate then dont but the way you are going about stating your opinion is going to cause some problems and rub ALOT of people here the wrong way.

So no. You dont have to donate, but what you can do is take that extremely insensitive energy elsewhere my guy.

Otherwise, be prepared for the backlash. No one here will feel sorry or take your side when it comes

Unless this is rage bait... either way

No.

Not sure if you're replying to me or the other guy. I was just stating the obvious about how the internet works. Never said donating was a bad idea.

chino doesn't want the material out, and i respect that given the circumstances. however, i wouldn't say that's true of every member. i haven't and will likely never listen to eros. i think it's a damn shame how it made it to the internet and i got a bad vibe from that guy the second i noticed him on here.

if the forum decides on a charity to donate to in cheng's name, i'd happily donate. like B_S_79 said,

Donating to a charity and sending money to the band are two completely different fucking things.

[RikshawHoward]

It's got nothing to do with "how the internet works" The band doesn't want the album to get out. If you have it, listen to it, I don't care, but it's weird that people keep posting links to the leak, or about the leak IN THIS THREAD when it is clear the band doesn't want that. FFS it's the first post in this thread. This isn't private music leaking early, this is a personal record that has some of the last work of a dear friend who tragically passed. Goodness gracious.

I get what you are saying, but even in those interviews Abe says it needs a lot of work before it would be released officially. Clearly that work has not happened.

[sober_sane]

or about the leak

Aren't we allowed even to talk about it? Why does this thread even exist then?

[RikshawHoward]

I meant specifically the spreadsheet that has popped up a few times, including on a website. Talk about it if you want, I don't care.
