Album’s supposed to be the “heaviest thing ever!”
That’s what the Deftones say about every album they make. Their next one should collapse in on itself and become a neutron star.

I WANT HAZ EROS?!
deftones don’t have ONE bad album imo.

I’ll agree with that. Some are better than others, but none of them are BAD. I’m the oddball that prefers White Pony, Saturday Night Wrist, and Diamond Eyes over the other records. And the Team Sleep stuff. Just about everybody I know likes the other records more than SNW or DE. Everybody seems to agree on the White Pony, though.
The “new album is gonna be the hardest/heaviest/darkest one yet” spiel they give every time is ridiculous though.

the only time where that was true was from white pony to their self titled album (and possibly from SNW to eros, althought we might never know). i don’t think they ever claimed diamond eyes was going to be hard/heavy/dark. i’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be a “positive vibes” album, given the fact that chi is a vegetable and all.
i don’t have a favorite era, but white pony is definitely their magnum opus.
yeah team sleep is awesome…i can’t believe they didn’t include Kool Aid in the official release -_-.
They’re usually pretty upfront when it comes to describing their albums. Eros was supposed to be VERY atmospheric, if I remember right. But they’re one of the very few bands that tells it like it is. This whole “heaviest album ever” nonsense is played out, but some people still buy into it. I learned my lesson with korn. “total death metal. Hardest album ever”. And when I finally hear it (Untouchables, the beginning of the end), it was honestly “wtf is this shit”. There I am waiting for some fucking chaos, but instead getting the whiniest album I probably ever heard in my life.
Blah blah blah.
H.I.M. is the heaviest heavy thing I ever tried to lift. Ville Vallo makes an ounce of heaviness weigh 5 billion tons. Emo-hop-core 4 Lyfe, Suckaz!!!
The team of people who have been commenting on Manson’s new music for the last few albums are generally people who know absolutely nothing about music.
I think Manson himself will just say “it’s gonna be really heavy” to get the fans to buy it, regardless of what it sounds like…
I don’t really care about Deftones but I can assure fans of Deftones that Manson is far more guilty of being full of shit in press releases, hyping, etc. than they could ever be.
When Twiggy said a more punk Mechanical Animals I think he was struggling to relate it to one of their older albums that was actually good.
Either way I’m cautiously curious but I know we’re not getting anything as good as the band’s glory days or even ‘Golden Age of Grotesque’…

Another Al influence I guess.

lol I think when Al says that it’s actually TRUE though
First tour date announced:
Hey guys…guess which festival I’m NOT going to next year???

Perhaps the one where Marilyn Manson opens for Limp Bizkit . . . .
I am imagining Twiggy and Courtney Love rekindling their romance at this festival.
I’m imagining Marilyn Manson rekindling his romance with Fred Durst.
I imagine many reacharounds at that festival.
The only straight guys at that festival are Biohazard, and even they are gay.
You’d want to be deaf and blind and scared of vaginas to want to attend that festival.
Did anyone notice that The Sisters of Mercy are also performing?
Also I think Meshuggah is maybe the least “gay” band performing if “gay” means “bad”
And System of a Down is worth noting…
Oh fuck! And Dillinger Escape Plan and CKY!! lol
Come on guys, have a little fun and go to this festival!! I would love to go to something like this but never happens in America or if so it is Coachella…
I’ve got two free tickets [;)]
System Of A Down and Lamb of God aren’t my thing, but they aren’t bad.
I happen to like Angels & Airwaves and Cobra Starship. Sue me.
Mastodon is badass. Meshuggah is good, even if they get old fast live. Gojira is tits. Dragonforce is amusing.
Peligro, you should give it a chance! Go with Toot. Free ticket!
If you don’t like the music, you can always escape to your private temperature-controlled microfiber tent enclosure and listen to Nurse With Wound’s ‘Homotopy to Marie’ on loop through $1,000 headphones.
That’s legit? Coal Chamber’s actually made up?
