[@josephcullen5872]

That opening solo is just so perfect. It’s like driving through the city at night with no one around.

[@Mixkayla24]

Agreed

[@CaLIcOSoUNdS]

I got a different vibe. It made me picture floating thru the cosmos with a head full of psilocybin

[@KP-vr6ft]

Hit the nail on the head

[@winkmurder]

So weird you say that, Deftones forever make me reminiscent of the days when I was a teenager and would drive all across the city at night with nearly no one on the roads. It's such a memory that it's become synonymous in my mind with the music of Deftones. Especially the ambience of the orange glow from the street lamps. I used to just spend so much time in my car listening to White Pony and Around the Fur.

[@maddog7012]

i always thought it would make a good future noir track, like blade runner.

[@dwightschrute5716]

Best track on gore no doubts

[@HEXVGRVM]

I just came here to 2nd that! 🎉

The best freaking song on Deftones' "Gore". This song always gives me the chills and try to sing it out loud live!

[@vonvard]

The intro to this song is possibly my favourite piece of music ever. It just does something to me.

[@nonodaclown9033]

Try fiction avenged sevenfold

[@ryanhallett577]

Stephen Carpenter. Master of rhythms. Master at creating atmospheres.

[@sharinglungs3226]

I’m a bit surprised he played this considering how open he’s been about his dislike for this song. It’s one of my favourites off Gore.

[@Chey_Cha1]

He said he’s learned to love it and his part on it

[@2strokeFORever]

Such a ood good track.when the distortion comes in during the chorus it's like a punch to the gut haha

[@Damage42X]

Why does he hate it though? It's THE song that got me into Deftones

[@brettanderson7832]

​@@Damage42X He and Chino have different tastes. This is a Chino offering but I've heard him say that he's grown to like this track despite his initial misgivings.

[@Rob-xn6ug]

[@SpartanLaserCanon]

The songs grew on me the more I listened to it.

[@eltigre9171]

It’s easily their weakest album, imho. To each their own, I hear a lot of hate for SNW, but I absolutely love it. Still love the band.

[@satellitesv03]

@@OtisB.Driftwood me neither.

[@AndI0td763]

@@eltigre9171 SNW is my favorite for sure but I think it’s often a case of when whichever album came out and our connection to it. SNW is definitely one of their more creative and atmospheric releases I think also. And that’s what I see in Gore as well, it’s different and fresh for them, despite the complaints there are about it. I also prefer Gore to Ohms and Diamond Eyes to Koi No Yokan and from what I’ve seen others generally have that switched around.

[@lalalex6779]

Absolutely beautiful notes! Steph has some beautiful fingers too, he's such a genius. We love our Steftone!! 🩵

I remember reading somewhere that Stef doesn't like Hearts / Wires, wonder why. His parts in this song are so expressive.

[@unanimousarts]

He’s learned to love it since that comment.

[@brandonmcsorley9579]

Everyone always trash talking gore but every Carpenter playthrough from the album has a top comment of "Favorite or best track on the album".

[@3amwafflehouse]

Truly underrated album, truly underrated work on this album. I love everything about this song, hearing this song in dead of night invokes an emotional feeling indescribable

[@TheSilverGate]

One of the weakest albums actually, I'm not a hater btw, I've been listening to Deftones since Around the fur

[@eltigre9171]

@@TheSilverGate agreed. I’m a huge fan, have been since the mid 90s. I love EVERY album, can listen from start to finish ANY other album. Gore, I skip quite a few songs. Still Love the band though, no hate whatsoever.

[@unanimousarts]

It’s an acquired taste and not as much of a grower as White Pony, Saturday Night Wrist, and Koi No Yokan. Though, I liked Gore when it came out and supported the band by purchasing the CD and the vinyl (which looks nice in white btw). I did complain about the production of the album and felt that it could’ve been handled much better. Maybe it’s how they wanted the album to sound like. As far as the song writing goes, I get reminded of Hum when listening to it.

[@OrlandoCarlock]

That intro is freakin awesome !

[@kg10101]

haha same thought here

[@SharpEdgeStandardOfficial]

Been waiting for this one since the start! Yes!!!!!!!

[@conallhomer453]

The pain in this song is majestic. That’s how I’d describe this song. It’s just pain but it’s beautiful. It’s toxic. The outro vocals “cut through, (away) this razor wire, (away) writhe till the end, break through (away) collect the wire, (away) died on your heart, writhe till the end”… it’s so void of hope in my eyes.

[@avedic]

I love how Chino and Stephen have such different styles....but work together so well. Stephen brings the heavy riffs, chromatic weirdness, odd time signatures, and wall-of-sound shoegaze. His guitar approach is obviously a huge part of what makes this band such transcendent songwriters. But then Chino's style of single-note melodic lines is SO evocative and inspired. They have this red-lit urban noir liminal vibe to them. Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game" is a perfect example of that kind of guitar line...the lead line specifically. Man, imagine Deftones covering that?? Now I want to hear that...! Lastly....for anyone who's into that whole vibe, specifically the vibe of Hearts/Wires....you gotta check out Ethel Cain's song Gibson Girl. Within the first few seconds you'll immediately see what I mean. It's so good.....

[@sharinglungs3226]

What about the extra songs off deluxe version of Diamond eyes? “Please please please let me get what I want” could be considered a part of the Adrenaline album era. He did play Lovers which was part of the self titled era. I hope we get some other covers like Night Boat, Jealous guy, to have and to hold and The Chauffeur.
