Listening to tonight (Part 1)

How are you liking the album? As a metal fan you must be happy.

I actually am kind of “meh” about it. I appreciate and like some of the songs A LOT and am super stoked for the new material. But some of the songs seem unpolished and lacking something…still trying to figure out what it is.

Like most Deftones albums, I am sure it will be typical in the fact that it grows on you a lot.

I really liked the lead off single, but much like Gore, I am not loving the rest of it.

Gore was their worst album IMO. This one isn’t as bad as that…but it isn’t White Pony or Diamond Eyes either.

Alright !

The best version and performance of this song which I sadly can’t find a better quality of than a straight youtube rip.

Been a while since I listened to this. I kind of over did it when the album came out.

It occurred to me I haven’t given this one a proper listen on any of these higher-tier cans I’ve acquired recently. That oversight is being rectified presently.

DSD64 > Audirvana > SU-8 > Liquid Platinum > LCD-2.1PF

And yeah, sounds :ok_hand:

Little insomnia tonight. Doing some light listening with my ‘end game’ portable setup.

Phone → Spotify → Sony MDR AS800AP
