your first post alone in this series of bullshit makes me not miss you one BIT, llama man

FUCK YOU

Joey Goldberg · 11-04-2020, 02:26 AM

go think about your transgressions & generally feel bad about yourself in that corner over there for at least a week, then we can discuss the meaning of life, the current US presidential election and, most importantly, the artist VALOUR of newest Deftones album OHMS youabsolutesonofabitch

FlamingGlobes · 11-04-2020, 08:23 AM

Sorry bro, I have standers. It's not that it's bad music. It's well produced, but it sounds like the band recorded whatever came to mind during a weeklong jam sesh and had Terry Date step up to the plate and work his magic. The songs, the hooks just aren't there. And Chino honestly sounds annoying in some of the tunes. Don't know what happened, but this ain't muh Deftones!

FlamingGlobes · 11-04-2020, 08:23 AM

I'm going to blame Fargo S4 on coronavirus run amok.

FlamingGlobes · 11-04-2020, 08:24 AM

And also maybe that Jack Black looking motherfuck.

ninsp · 11-08-2020, 10:16 PM

I can’t stop listening to Ohms
This is probably my favorite Deftones album

FlamingGlobes · 11-09-2020, 02:31 PM

really?

FlamingGlobes · 11-09-2020, 02:31 PM

Not me, not with White Pony, Diamond Eyes and Around the Fur still on the shelf. Glad everyone else is enjoying it though.

I was obsessed with SNW when it came out but I really think it’s their worst.

It's the sound of the band falling apart. But damn if it doesn't have some moments of true greatness. Like pizza, even bad Deftones is good Deftones.

I don't think Deftones became Deftones until White Pony, the first two are good, but sound like a garage band in comparison to their massive, layered sound from WP onwards.

It's weird that you say Diamond Eyes is simplistic and lacks depth while also heaping praise upon its follow-up, which was a retread with a fresh coat of paint but half as many hooks and/or memorable riffs. Gore and Ohms continue that sort of aimless streak they've been on. I don't hate any of it, but man I want them to blow my mind again.

I don’t understand how you can be a Deftones fan and not absolutely fucking adore Ohms. I just don’t see how you can see faults.

Oh, right. I forgot. You're pretty infamous for that.

this is pretty much where i stand, but i probably would have said the same thing for DE or maybe even Koi (i say "maybe even" because even though i love it i could see how some of the more "knuckle-headed" fans would not quite click with it)

Ohms is like the band returning home after a decade-long journey, reuniting with their beloved old producer & just making that sweet, sweet music

Excellent but not quite as magical:

Hashed out in a week with the odd excellent moment:

Gore

First two not included as they may as well be by a different band.

That is objective, my furry friends.
