EROS - no leak topic

[Formant]

Also, I had a feeling from the old studio footage that Steph was playing in Self-Titled Tuning, adding a low Eb for the 8 string.

Meaning he tuned up to standard tuning for Diamond Eyes.

Interesting choice, I wonder why he did that and didn't keep Eros tuning. That low Eb is brutal on Trempest.

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.

my bad dude I was trying to reply to the other guy via BS response to it I was on my phone and it was being janky XD I am so sorry (not sorry to the other guy)

Intro reminds me very much of 11/11 as well

Well the drama accounts are brand new ones so...

Yes my account is brand new but I have been around a while, fan since early 00's. Presence only digitally via SL discord right before PM leak, but made it a point to familiarize myself with a lot of the OGs here. I have been dying to be an active participant for a while just waiting for a good time, never in my wildest dreams imagined it would be because of Eros

Great little discord group there, some of the realest people I have ever had the luxury of meeting so I am hoping this feels the same. They actually volunteered as my security detail with random dudes until they quickly realized just because I was a female, I could handle myself

I have been raptures friend IRL 25+ years, he brought me there, I brought me here I was trying to defend the charity front for OG fans when dude was being insensitive is all. Please, don't mind me....

In fact, very happy Ves made a reappearance, been wanting to "meet" him for a while, always thought it would be a privilege to do so, sorry it was like this

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?

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.

The Reddit group didn't take kindly to my suggestion. I donated to UC Davis Children's Hospital in the name of the band and Chi..  the same charity the band ran a charity drive for back during Ohms. "Adopt a Dot" from the Ohms album cover.

Got accused of virtue signaling and was told to do my research before donating and I was an idiot for choosing the children's hospital.

TLDR fuck Reddit. lol. Sticking to SL from here on out.

[RikshawHoward]

Sounds like reddit.

Ofc that place would not be receptive I imagine the House of (F)Lies server would be no different. I loathe that place more than Reddit! Yet everyone is quick to virtue signal while accusing you of the same. Hypocrisy oozes there. Here you are offering a very noble compromise for middle ground on the morality side. Such a damn shame man. Its cool. Plenty of people here will throw down whether they listen to Eros or not just 'cause its the thing to do to rectify considering our hands are tied in this situation 'irregardless!' XD I prefer this place too I wish I would have came sooner
One Love! RIP Chi <3
PS I hope you do not mind I have officially nicknamed you BS

[myownsummer]

who is Luke in Brianna?

[mandalay]

[47F]

Apparently, the original lossless wav files from the album leaked.

Briana is actually dated January 11th, 2009 instead of September 29th, 2008.

Instrumental and acapella for Trempest also leaked.

Looks like the tracker is down.. tried to PM you but your box is full.. any info on these files?

Oh, he made an entirely new thread for the tracker, czech it out! https://www.sharinglungs.com/index.php?topic=22170.0

That Acapella Trempest is amazing

Brianna it is soooooo gooooood lossless! However, I do agree with others that have said Diamond would have been an amazing closer and I am heavily considering changing the track order to reflect it

"Kiss your bride just in case you have to go" <3

Yesssss!!!! I am surprised this was not circulating yet

Not this time bebo.

Oh my I did indeed fall for that XD

Just wanted to say thanks again, but your box is full, so I'll say it here.
The url is working now. Just saw your pm with the info... really interesting stuff. I'm guessing Crest will show up at some point soon.

Steftone don't sound like he gives a flying fuck.

Lol what's this dude talking about with the songs being on YouTube for a while? All I know was Smile and the instrumental for Brianna

[Baylock]

Honestly, to me? The album was basically ready for release, despite what any of the guys have said in the past; the only song that actually sounded unfinished was Candy (due to the minor guitar presence), and even then, it's still good as is. If this debacle ends up inspiring the guys to officially release it at some point, it wouldn't take much to shine it up even further.

Yeah it doesn't sound like he's been clued in to what has actually come out and is misremembering or blurring it together with other leaks, though to be fair they are sessions from 20 years ago that he possibly hasnt looked at since then, if I were in his position I probably wouldn't even remember any details about the songs or how many there were.

[sober_sane]

That's coming from a person who's not been obsessing with this stuff for almost 20 years. They're musicians, they always have some demos cooking. Of course he forgets.

As for Chino's wife's answer, I'm not so sure. She did not elaborate on things. The fact some shady person was trying to sell the material sure is unfuckingbelievable. Are they against the fans listening to it? They didn't say it. After almost 40 years in the business they gotta be prepared that a recording of him singing in the shower might end up on the internet and the fans will still think it's a banger.

[Far away]

Kinda odd this happened two days after Chino's birthday. I really want to hear what the band has to say about it.

my theory is that he was also under this move, like that time with Smile

This is most certainly not from the band

Nah, I never thought it was from Chino or the band. This would be a stupid way to share that material with fans. Maybe someone that works with the band in some capacity, or more likely someone who works for WB. Just sucks it happened around his birthday.

We've heard from his wife now, you can bet the band is fucking pissed. I'm just very bummed about it tbh. I mean, I've been wanting to hear this material for 18 years... that's fucking crazy. Now, they're definitely never going to revisit the album, but I didn't think they would anyways, so as a fan I couldn't help myself. My girlfriend and I listened to it last night. Very bittersweet, just wanted to hear Chi again. I am very sorry to the band this happened, I personally won't feel right to contribute to it spreading on the internet but I won't judge anyone else for doing so. It is what it is. 

Actually same here. I still didnt listen to it. Its getting difficult.

Somebody pass that shit please.

"No spoilers chat please" XD but also, I can imagine. The resistance is strong

[ghostofemilydickinson]

I wrestled with whether or not to listen to the tracks. Mainly just out of respect for Chi. But then I decided, you know what, I'll listen to one track at random just to get the "flavor" of it.

That was a mistake, as the randomly selected song was Candy.

Holy shit.

Needless to say, I've listened to the entire album about 5 times now. Sure, it could be recency bias, but pretty sure Melanie and Candy, and are top tier Deftones tracks. I'd argue to say Candy is better than anything on Gore or Ohms.

Also...is everyone else assuming the end of Electra eventually morphed/evolved into the ending to Royal?

[DefFsho]

If anyone is feeling generous, I wouldn't mind a link to hear this stuff. Longtime member here I would actually love a link.   Thank you in advance.
