This was my first Deftones song I had ever heard, and what a perfect song to ease me into the beautiful intensity that is the sound of Deftones. If I’m being perfectly honest, I saw this video advertised with the images of the Owl, and was intrigued enough to be like “hmm what’s this?”. Little did I know I was about to discover one of my most favorite Rock bands ever.

Years ago, Saints Row: The Third introduced me to the Defttones when my adopted brother demonstated for me the game's music. Witting very little, I later found out more about their albums online getting hooked on owning them since then. Playing the Remastered calls back up the nostalgia to replay the flashback again when I first asked him who they were with such an entrancing, moving music.

[@Bvetrayed]

I've already known of this band from watching dbz😅 but yea i remember playing saints row while listening to this song.

[@zethron1173]

About ten years ago my Brother moved to Wisconsin from Texas and had been there a couple years. We had a band together and we were very close. Inseparable. He sent me this song one day and told me it made him think of me. "Time will see us realign." That hit me and I realized how much my big bro loved me. 5 years ago my Brother died... Time will lead us to the same realm..

[@TheMightyBattleSquid]

I was looking for this song for almost a decade now!!! I used to listen to this along with Closure (Chevelle) and Schism (Ameritz) on my phone but it didn't upload along with the rest when I was switching devices at some point so going all this time without that 1 missing piece has been a mental itch I just couldn't scratch! For some reason all I could remember was the melody and "coffin shakes" followed by "needle breaks" from the lyrics and none of the lyric search sites could find it off of just that until now.
