"I thought the appeal was textured guitar lines with the vocalist being all emotional and stuff"

not for me. since i think chino sucks and that their 'textured guitar lines' have just seem to become predictable and more or less homogenous over the last few years.

agreed. but I fail to see how the rhythm saves this tbh..

"But wouldn't that be just because of the tone of his voice? Like I can't imagine Thom Yorke on a side project sounding any different from what he would sound like on a Radiohead album."

thom yorke has featured on tonnes of shit that he doesnt make sound like radiohead.

unkle, mark pritchard, flying lotus off the top of my head.

Chino Moreno is a sweet name, no getting around that

"agreed. but I fail to see how the rhythm saves this tbh.."

i havent heard this yet so maybe it doesnt but im not saying it saves the band im just saying its the only thing thats been remotely interesting at all on the worst of their albums (like diamond eyes)

Completely agree with every Deftones album sounding exactly the same in recent years. I mean if you've got a commercially (and for some reason critically) successful sound then sure keep that in mind, but it can't hurt to experiment a littls or at least change slightly.
