He adds that bit of chill that makes the album really soothing, even on the heavier sections. I absolutely love the juxtaposition often displayed between the heavy guitars and clean singing. That said though, there are some big differences, notably Chino's vocal performance. Maybe I'm just saying that because it's 2:45 in the morning right now, but fuck it's fitting the mood. This album feels much more like a night time album, but still retains the aggression of that album. I love listening to it in my car on a clear blue sky day, just works perfectly during that time.

That album just has a very vibrant atmosphere to it. My first feeling listening to this album is that it's basically the darker version of an album like Around the Fur. Exit Deftones.About done with my first listen of the entire album. its needless to say the whole album has triumphed and made deftones what they are today as the band all put in a piece of themselves to create something well done! from chinos vocals to stephens 9 string guitar and his stunning riffs, to franks entrancing synth-powered performance, to sergios sweet baselines and finally to abes awesome way of playing and capturing the rhythm of the song with the drums we can truly taste the essence that white pony truly had yet not everybody could even dare grasp. ohms which closes the record gives us a sense of completion and is actually a close to perfect song once youve heard the rest of the album, that is.my personal favorite songs were: pompeji, urantia, radiant city, the spell of mathematics, error, and genesis although i must admit the album is so diverse that it completes itself with every song no matter which preferences one may have. radiant city is a very solid self sustained song with a engaging chorus and vibrant engulfing sounds that stand out alot. error didnt seem like an error for its my favorite of the songs. this link is dead is definetly not a dead link. the spell of mathematics depicts a chill ambient song that changes what he cd had shown prior to this track for there is space to gather more from a more hypnotic approach. as for ceremony and urantia are both so chill and groovy at the same time. in genesis we get a feeling of heavyness and minblowing screams followed by melodic vocals which give us an air of whats to come and how yuxtaposed the album will get in a heavy yet melodic way. in pompeji they blow our minds with a sudden drop into the vast sea where we picture just u and the sea as synthwave effects cast a spell upon u. Experimental? yeah for sure, the otherwordly vibes, haunting lyrics along with dreamy layers make this a MUST listen. this album captures the most surreal and atmospheric sounds that bind you to a plane unknown up until now by deftones AND music in general.

theres no doubt theyve aged not only well but as a completely unique band.

this is definetly an album to look up to as well as compare since past albums have led deftones to evolve and make magic the way they do. this is definetly an album to look up to as well as compare since past albums have led deftones to evolve and make magic the Enter Deftones.
