Deftones – Ohms – September 25

Way better than Gore? Dammit I may actually have to listen to it. Well I tossed it in my Spotify queue, who knows when I'll get to it. Maybe if a song grabs my attention when I shuffle said queue. 

I'll give it a spin tomorrow. Hopefully it's better than Gore, which I played maybe....twice.

As sidewinder said earlier, in an expertly crafted post, I identify Deftones with such nostalgia, it's hard for me to listen to them without feeling like I'm 22. So when I play White Pony I get feelings and emotions of happiness and a rush of nostalgic endorphins, but when I play there new stuff, I feel kind of......old.

Hah! Maybe I'm thinking way to much into this? We shall see tomorrow 

I really like it on 1st few listens. Nothing new but wasn't expecting it to be, but everything sounds so fucking amazing!

Such a full lush sound but with room for everything to breath and the guitar riffs sounding particularly heavy and epic. 

Had a few more listens finding this pretty bad still. Cant think of a single interesting moment.

Well the first track hits the bullseye like an Exocet missile!

Wait for the last one « Ohms » ! 

those two tracks are sure growers

they have classic Deftones elements, and the little new style with samples upfront with guitar. I love it. 

I'm so glad they went with Terry Date as producer again.  Around the Fur and White Pony have always been two of my favourite sounding heavy albums.  The guitars just sound right.  Yep, this kicks ass.  Really digging the ghostly keyboard atmospheres too.  And... finger snaps?  About fucking time someone threw that on a metal album.

^agreed on the Terry Date and previous mentions about the album sounding good but still having space for the instruments and to vibe. that said, i only listened to it on YouTube so i imagine it really does sound actually good on some high quality listening format. i had good but not great first impressions. it sounded certainly better than Gore, but that's not a difficult achievement. a few tracks did stand out tho, so i'm hopeful some further listens will bear it out to be an album worth picking up.

I was playing this yesterday but had my niece and nephew launching various types of balls around me, and hassling me to play Kidz Bop (I quite like Whoomp!! There It is lol) but what I did hear this sounded really great. Gonna blast this as soon as I can!!!

Yes, first few spins I’m very impressed. Quite surprisingly so.

Indeed. I absolutely love the run from Pompeji > Radiant City. Frank and Sergio are more prominent than ever. Also, the production is quite good.

My daily routine :

morning SIGN

haha what a dumbass. him and RDJ should hang out

I'm just going to make believe I didn't read that...

c'mon, if that's his thing then so be it. y'all wouldn't fuss over someone with religious beliefs.

What a fucking moron. 

lol. Whatever. This album is the best he has sounded in ages though. 

Ohms still not doing much for me. Couple of remixes from White Pony so far actually pretty good. Enjoyed Shinoda's Passenger. Like it's much, much worse than the original but still good.
