Yeah Sabrutin my main issue is that the songs here are completely formless and lack structure, feels like the band just throwing ideas at a wall and not bothering to arrange them in a way that makes sense

Ahahah truth is relative bro...there s nothing like Korn in here, even if you want to turn it as a negative thing.



That said Error would be perhaps my least fave here if it wasn t so damn cool.

Structures are thick classic deftones...verse-half chorus-verse-half chorus-verse/bridge-full striking chorus



Take it or leave. I still wait for Rel's 3.5 though

Interesting Colton I felt like the songs that strayed far away from structured to be more interesting. Deftones are so good when they just jam and vibe and don’t shoehorn in verse chorus repeat

The Korn thing wasn't meant as a negative just because it's Korn, I'm probably one of the biggest fans between the active users lol. It's just that the main riff in Error reminds me of both Immigrant Song and Korn's Right Now. And even then Error is still one of my favorites from an album that I'm very much digging.



"Yeah Sabrutin my main issue is that the songs here are completely formless and lack structure, feels like the band just throwing ideas at a wall and not bothering to arrange them in a way that makes sense"

Personally I don't think the songs are formless, I'm all for compositional variety especially when it's hinted at well enough like 1:40 into Error subtly hinting at the second half, but I do agree that some parts feel underdeveloped.

Take Pompeji, the ambience is cool and all but it really doesn't build to anything other than fading into Link. The tracklist could have been "6. Pompeji / 7. Interlude / 8. Link" and it wouldn't feel wrong at all to me.



"I’m gonna compare this band and steely Dan in a future post on this thread"

You could cheekily use the second half of Spell

Second half of Error is great but agreed that it comes out of nowhere and has next to zero dialogue with the rest of the song (subtle hints aren't enough to cover for that lurch imo). Am all for structural chopping and changing, but Error straight up feels like two different tracks pasted together

Error's start reminds me of Nine Inch Nails, which automatically gets more respectable ahaha but ok...if you see Korn and immigrant you do. I'm glad you are a Korn fan then, cause I am too (early ones of course).

@Sabrutin I see what you mean, actually. The latter half of Error is what elevates the song and not so much the first couple of verses and choruses (which aren't great in most songs here, anyways). But I love the instrumental work.

I don’t see what’s wrong with the second half of Error at all, it flows into that part pretty seamlessly. Doesn’t feel choppy in the slightest
