New song is absolutely fire

opal needle
#

I've never listened to deftones before now but listening to diamond eyes for the first time and loving it

#

Gonna go into this blind I think

torn crescent
#

honestly I think the guitar/drum tone and production could be better, it sounds too polished and modern metalcore-ish

#

Album is out in the wild if you know where to look

But I'm curious about it. I never really liked deftones in the past, but been relistening lately and actually been enjoying them.

#

Just started my first listen

#

Deftones is one of these bands I never really quite got into while loving so many "this i s just a Deftones ripoff"-bands

#

so I´m quite curious

stark wolf
#

Alright, this did not change my mind on Deftones. Respect for their legacy and all they did for the scene, personally I much prefer most of the bands being ascribed to be inspired by them

limpid shoal
#

You dont really just listen.... mainly just have it on in the back doing something

#

I was listening to this in a gym and it hits differently for me

tawdry lodge
#

First listen I didn’t really connect with it, second listen changed that. Top tier album man just pure vibes and bliss

worldly sphinx
#

finally checking this out

#

prior to this, i havent actually finished their discog

#

so i listened to Gore and Ohms first, now this

#

always great to get that perspective

#

holy shit man

#

this is up there with my favorite songs of the year

worldly sphinx
#

gonna have to finish this album later but this is looking like it could be a 9/10

limpid shoal
#

Infinite source is so fucking good

worldly sphinx
#

it's one of those songs that remind me why i fell in love with deftones

coral dock
#

haven’t heard this album yet

worldly sphinx
#

finishing it today

#

did NOT expect to hear nu metal again from deftones

#

that's awesome

#

9/10 record

#

this is nearly everything i want from a deftones album

coral dock
#

i come to deftones for shoegazy stuff

worldly sphinx
#

well yeah

#

that's most of this album

tough vale
#

second relisten from before
i'm ranking it up to a 9

#

going to lmao when anthony fantano reviews this and gives it like a 6 or 7 causing their fanbase to have a meltdown

worldly sphinx
#

idk, he's been really liking the songs

#

a 7 would honestly still be great

#

it's not that bad of a score like some people make it out to be lol

torn crescent
worldly sphinx
#

god damn it lol

worldly sphinx
#

that's pretty much what I expected

#

compared to his other Deftones reviews (and his opinion on Deftones in general), this is still great lol

stark wolf
# worldly sphinx it's not that bad of a score like some people make it out to be lol

I feel like in today's discourse these out of 10 ratings are so insanely misunderstood by so many because we're so used to a bunch of stuff getting really good ratings that something like a 7 feels more like an average to good score rather than being pretty solid.

It feels like we're so conditioned to just accept stuff placed before us and take every bit of merit in it as a reasoning to not be "too harsh" in critiquing it. While I dont really agree with Fantano often, I really like how he actually uses the full 1-10 scale. Dont see that much anymore

#

i just do simple ratings

#

i dont bother with full reviews lol

torn crescent
#

now let’s witness the meltdown

worldly sphinx
torn crescent
worldly sphinx
#

not really much of a meltdown going on

#

people tend to understand that a 7 is a good score

torn crescent
#

Shocking

worldly sphinx
#

again you have to keep in mind, fantano's opinion on deftones is largely negative

#

he rated ohms and gore pretty poorly and has expressed his general disdain for some older records

#

so a 7 is pretty awesome to see
