Deftones; Gore
Feature Track: Doomed User
Keep Listening: (L)MIRL
Deep Cut: Gore
I only owned a few band T-shirts back in the day. And one of my favorites was a white baseball syle logo (in blue). If you are any kind of responsible music listener, then you must realize that Deftones possess one of the most unique and infectious sounds in all of rock music. However, in my opinion the last few albums have sounded more like a really good cover band trying to make their own originals.
But Gore comes out of the gate with a fresh new energy that should make even the hippest and most hyped new alternative rock bands tremble with a awe. This is barbaric. It is the classic sound of my youth, imbued with some creative recording techniques to sound like what we remembered feeling like when we first heard this sound.
This looks to be a great experience. The title track, Gore sounds like a social commentary on modern times and hits with a brutality beyond comparison.
I just re-listened to Around The Fur and scanned White Pony to make sure.
The best record they have ever made.
Thank you, guys!
