Deftones - Ohms (September 25, 2020) Album • Page 33

I dunno, I’ve revisited their discography before Ohms dropped and I found myself listening to SNW and S/T much more than Gore but that’s just my preference though.

 

Funny you say that given in a recent interview it was implied that Nick R. sort of checked out on KNY. Makes a lot of sense.

 

Just going on record to say I'm absolutely floored by how fucking good this album is. This was everything I wanted from them and I didn't even know I wanted it. Bravo Deftones. This shot to the top half of my favorite 2020 albums instantly.

 

Just finished my first listen, excellent album once again. The quality is so consistently top-tier throughout that I am struggling to pick any clear favourites - Ohms is such a cool closer, Genesis such a cool opener, Headless' clean guitars reminded me of some of my favs from Diamond Eyes, Radiant City such a badass intro too, so on and so on!

Incredible band; best metal band in the world for me by a long way!

 

Deftones talk new album 'Ohms' - Triple M Rock - Omny.fm

Chino discussing the making of the album. Really cool to hear.

 

lol my review provides one of the pull quotes for the album press release, what the fuck

 

Chino screeching “fuck this shit, leave me alone” is a mood

 

hello new avatar

 

when I heard that for the first time my immediate thought was “I feel like I have been waiting to hear these words screamed like this my whole life”

 

That Radiant City bass line.

 

also my reaction to Stef’s chugs in the verses of Error

 

this is the most well-integrated the different sides of their sound have ever been. there's no moment on on this album where the riffs clear out for something meditative and pretty like "entombed" or "sextape," it's just crushing and beautiful in countervailing waves, all the time. i think they had a real breakthrough recording this. it's early, but... man, this is def my third favorite after kny and white pony

 

i guess one point toward the people who think "error" starts off as a nu-metal throwback jam is that it's absolutely the first thing they've written since white pony where i've thought "this could be on white pony"

 

I enjoy this album. Radiant City sounds like the best Glassjaw song that they didn't write.

 

Hey same top 3, nice

 

Even tho I pre-ordered the deluxe (sounds like it’s postponed till 10/23) I needed the gold

 

Damn. I assumed it would be postponed. Though 10/23 is a long wait. Oh well

 

Listen to Crosses

 

Bummer about the deluxe. Is that confirmed anywhere?

 

"this link is dead" is the BEST SONG

 

gonna estimate when the dust settles this is top 3 for me too. really blown away

 

I think I’m in the same boat. I honestly wasn’t sure anything could top the original Terry Date 4 for me but this is making a very strong case.

 

I feel like these are Chino's best lyrics in a while too

 

I don't know how true it is - I know some posters on the VC boards mentioned emails being sent to a few about the delay.

 

The riff that kicks in around 2:40 in This Link Is Dead my goodness
