[@loathy4528]

@@thexer0projekt Yeah but at least 2 of the songs on Eros were turned into other songs. The song Dallas was turned into Beauty School, and another song named Trempest was turned into Tempest. So we'll likely never get the album unless they add in new tracks.

Ethanride, La Fuerza Blading, if you haven't heard, they're in the studio right now working on Eros. It's coming either by the end of this year or sometime in 2020. I'm just finding out about this and if the internet is trolling, I might have to kill some people 😠

My girlfriend committed suicide a month ago, like all couples we had our fair share of problems. When we were apart there was a conversation that i remember very vividly and the line you've always said that you knew my worth came out from my lips and she agreed and comforted me. The first song that I made her listen was Cherry Waves and for the love of god I swear that I would have swimmed down to the depths of hell if it meant that she would still be alive today. I don't even care if we would be together or not I just wanted to be there and help her achieve her dreams and be happy.

I've been listening to Deftones since they were promoting their self-titled, when I was 8. I heard Change on a Dragon Ball Z tape, of all places. Now I'm 20 and they're still my favorite band and they still continue to amaze me. I cried the day I found out Chi had passed, a decade after I started listening to them. I felt like I lost a close family member, because they made me who I am. RIP Chi. Smile. You're born again

+Christian Ryan whens our wedding

[@christianryan9989]

3/11 Day.

[@christianryan9989]

I definitely need to be with someone who loves Deftones as much as me because me and Deftones are a package deal. If I have a kid, fuck little Einstein, I'll sit him/her on my lap and loop white pony.

[@ThePunkchic17]

hahahaaha yessss. White pony for breakfast, Around the fur for lunch, and Saturday night wrist for dinner hahah

[@christianryan9989]

And Adrenaline for an afternoon snack lol

[@bellatrixromo3496]

I need to hear this on an endless uninterrupted loop

[@MrBlick76]

Me too. Sometimes this band is literally the deepest feelings I've ever felt. On tape

[@Guanjyn]

Listened to Deftones for a long time. I think this is my favorite one by them. You can almost feel Chi's presence through the Eros material.

[@fantoncl]

I am just now listening to this in retrospect of ohms. Very powerful. Chi spirit reigns within the new album. Chi unique bass style will forever sound in the history of rock and roll.

[@lovelyrooot]

it’s me and you til the end ❤️‍🔥

[@slavicharrystyles6914]

R.I.P Chi. Your spirit will live on.

[@heretech7025]

Listen to this song every day

[@riggedzone]

2021 and I can still only hear this on KZbin. I need this on my playlist!!!

[@sxdfxces3121]

That’s exactly why I use KZbin premium/music. KZbin has everything

[@BANGsaysKnife]

The universe needs this song. The world needs Deftones. For Chi

[@peacekeeperstyle5294]

This needs to be released

[@borikuarokero4309]

Wow what a great song...as a lifetime Defrones fan I cant believe Ive never heard this

[@kylehaney4124]

Had Chi not been in that accident we could’ve had more great music than just this unreleased gem. Rip Chi Ching

[@JD-sr3ie]

What a masterpiece of a song, and to a band that never gave up.

[@coked3223]

Happy birthday Chi...

[@wiktor2256]

'Smile' is the first deftones song that made me feel like im really connected mentally with this song - lyrics, rythm, guitar, drums, all. throws me back to my first love times which were the best. this nostalgia, feeling that i am 'born again' and visualising in my head this fresh and cold sunrise in the middle of summer with unique scent. also knowing that this song wasn't released and was connected with this eros album makes me feel like this track is really special and deep.

[@ricaard6959]

My earphones aren't doing this song any justice... First time I listened to it was on this huge Soundsystem and it was awesome... My fav Deftones song...

[@Chris_yes]

i hope they release this album

[@F0aming]

+Chris S. It's not looking that promising now. Chino was recently asked about it and said. "‘Musically it’s probably 75 - 80% done and lyrically it was about halfway there, but honestly, I wasn't too happy with the material we had. ‘Some of the music was lacking a little bit.I had faith it was going to come together and be great in the end, but we never got to that point. Once Chi had his accident, everything came to a halt with the Eros sessions, so the idea of going back to that batch of songs, finishing them and have Sergio learn Chi's parts just hasn't felt like something that we're interested in doing. If the record were finished and we were just sitting on it, we probably would have put it out by now, maybe even given it away, just so that people can hear it, but it would take a lot more work to get it done. But when we get together, we're much more fascinated with where we are in this moment, trying to create something new."

[@Countdownsmiles]

That's upsetting. Although if the 75% of an album is as fuckin good as this I would legitimately pay $50 for four songs

[@DontBeAScab314]

+CountdownSmiles they've been working on this album for fucking years Idc if it isn't done. I would also legitimately pay $50 as well, these songs and the album is like a treasure chest of secrets yet to be heard by hardcore Deftones fans across the world.

[@Countdownsmiles]

I wouldn't say they've been working on it for years, to me it doesn't sound like they've touched it. Especially since they were working on GORE. But yeah i would for sure want whatever they DO have finished released as a mini-album

[@Menoetius.]

Gore was a bit underwhelming for me. Maybe the next one will resonate with more of an eros type sound, I hope.

[@billybutcher4995]

This is Chi Cheng’s last music I think. That’s what makes it so powerful imo.

[@jinx17]

Fuck I want this album released ASAP Chino you fucking tease

[@iDevilzPain]

10yrs anniversary!! i still cant get over how perfect this track is

[@miriamcooper9171]

I listen to this every day because it’s so beautiful and fits every mood. This band has done nothing but beautiful work in my opinion. I saw them in concert last summer and I was right in front of Chino and it was the most heavenly experience I’ve had so far and may ever have. Deftones forever. ❤️

[@jeremiebrower94]

This is one of their best songs. I wish this was on an album!

[@jasonmendoza8099]

very underated as artists IMO. From the musicality of an 8 stringed guitar to the sweeping, scooping vocals their music is like a soundtrack to real life. Like a modern Four Seasons this would be Autumn. It is the pain of fleeting joy. nothing moves me more except October Rust.

[@melly2796]

I'm taking my 9 year old son to see Deftones in philly in 3weeks.... It'll be his first concert, and he 7th time I'm seeing them live. Chino is God.

[@umdmustang9254]

Melissa GT I hate you as a Patriots fan. But I love the fact you and your son got to see the Deftones live. Hope it was a memorable experience.

[@thedutchmaster225]

Was this the one at festival pier?

[@melly2796]

Mike Ryan Yup! It was!

[@reginaldohernendez6192]

Fucking A right I'm proud to be a Mexican American hail to Chino Moreno !!!!!!

[@lorenp2188]

Their 2016 tour was amazing! I caught that in Phoenix AZ! Check out my channel for live vids of deftones

[@7NickInvade]

Deftones is one band thats changed my life through music such amazing band

[@jamseyy]

Its amazing that they started as a sac town nu metal band and let themselves evolve naturally into their beautiful unique and iconic style that they are now known for. Not many bands who started around that time, in that scene, have had that kind of staying power.

[@wilbebop]

I need this song at my funeral , I feel it will touch people in ways they take life granted for. This song reminds me of my uncle & grandpa who left my life before even reaching 21. RIP CHI 🕊️ forever & may all the deftones fans see them live / reach thier full potential. 🤘🏼

[@Zakman7698]

Amazing that Deftones can go from screaming headbang style to beautiful emotional material such as this.

[@emileerosebollwinkel2052]

My very favorite Deftones track. Gets me in the feels every time 🖤

[@dAdpool-lt2zh]

New deftones album coming 2019. God I wish they would release this in honor of Chi. I can understand the band not wanting to since he’s gone . But damn we need to hear Eros. I feel that Chi would want them to release it.

[@user-mh7db7ei1s]

Agreed. Smile is a mind-blowing song on it's own, so you know that Eros is going to be a masterpiece, if/whenever we get to hear it.

[@Jacob-cu1zz]

I could see them releasing it after they break up as a band completely as the last album. I feel like there's no way they just don't release it at all.

[@isaacgarcia2979]

Maybe in 2020

[@jacquelinep362]

Chino says 2020. 😊

[@jobmeyer4442]

@@jacquelinep362 where did you hear this?

[@bayoustate9481]

I wish The Deftones would release this album. This is one of my favorite songs ever.

[@robertoclemente7066]

I had the chance to watch Deftones two times. Once with Chi back in 07. It was one of the most surreal experiences I've ever had in my life. Changed me forever. One Love for Chi! RIP!

[@werthersoriginal]

Chino: “Do you feel wet?” Me: You have no idea.
