Got the new Deftones album. Pretty cool, except for the fact that Linkin Park and their stench is everywhere. Why Deftones, why!!!!

The new Deftones album is EPIC and in no way do I hear any of Linkin Park's Stench on the album lol...

In my mind Linkin Park popularized the whole techno/remix nonsense (Reanimation is poop enough to make me want to vomit) and some of the songs on the new Deftones album reeks of it. Just like I blame David Beckham for the mohawk resurgence. I guess I am a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to rock music. Play me Machine Head or Territory Live from Sepultura and I will gain the ability to do nearly anything, but this techno/remix nonsense is not for me.

I guess I just really hate techo that much.

Interesting...I too hate Techno with a passion and can't stand anything Linkin Park spewed forth after their two first albums, but for me, Deftones have their own unique sound. I know they have there sampling beeps and bops but I wouldn't call it techno...far from it. If you listen to Team Sleep, Chino's side band, it has a more of a Techno vibe, but even that is more dreamy. I guess to each their own...

Say what i also say, no way man, there's no LP vibes in the new Deftones cd, uhhm there a bit much more hardcore than P, and they've got their own individual sound :)

I guess Around the Fur was just brilliant and this album is just too different to me.

Shoo, yea comparing Around the Fur to their latest album is quite a change, but it still has that Deftones sound which I love so much...the melodic and brutality mix is just incredible...on that note, time to listen to the their latest album again hehe...

I will do - just waiting until I am here alone then I can crank up the volume.
I see that with the Disturbed you get some DLC - can't wait to get it and watch. Liking what I hear already.

Crap.

Why do you even ask, you know it's going to be crap.

Look at Minutes to Midnight. Crap.

Everything they've done since they were good, has been crap.


Any other questions?
