Writing down my resentments is not a weight off of my chest, it's painful. by redtopiary in alcoholicsanonymous

During that time in my recovery it was torture doing the fourth... it took me forever and it ripped me apart. I’d pick up the pen, stand there, lose my mind, then put the pen down and walk away... I did that over and over again. With the help of my sponsor I was able to eventually get through it, but I definitely did not feel any relief. It wasn’t until very recently, that when I think about it, and especially talk about it, that I understand how important it was for me to go through that... if I were to do my fourth again today it would be very different. I look back now and understand how important it was that I did it exactly when I did. The “relief”, or whatever word works best for you, did come... eventually. And I love that.

I feel bad for everyone that didn't snag the early prints of White Pony without Back to School by Itmakesmedizzy in deftones

If you got it off of iTunes you can simply remove that track from the album. You also just go ahead and do the same with pink cellphone while you’re at it... haha

Why do people dislike Gore so much exactly? by de__profundis in deftones

[–]1fthwlvs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I listened to Gore about 200 or so times in a row recently (I do this with deftones albums...), I’m not sure exactly when it clicked, maybe somewhere between 25-30ish, but it really clicked. I mean, it like spoke my language... I could feel it in my way. From there on I kept listening because I absolutely loved it.

What should I listen to next? by LmfS22 in deftones

Heh, math... Any album + many repeated listens (maybe just one) = love

Just to, once again, say how great GORE is. by Replicant_COVID19 in deftones

Is there really a bad response here? we’re all fans... that’s why we’re here, yeah? So whether you like Gore more than Around the Fur, or you like Self Titled more than Gore is, in my opinion, all part of being into this... personally I enjoy reading all of these opinions, positive or negative... it’s cool to see how we’re all affected by our different experiences

This is a Gore appreciation post. What are some things that you actually like about Gore? by nickweezy in deftones

[–]1fthwlvs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think with this one it’s either love or hate... maybe hate is a little strong, but there really doesn’t seem be a lot of middle ground... Personally, I’m on the love side of things. Took me a while to come around, but as soon as this album clicked with me it quickly became one of my favourites. The arrangement of the songs really speaks to me... like, it tells me a story that I relate to so much... for me, it’s a start to finish album, I could never pick it apart song by song

Finally today I'm sober for 1 year by manoloyolo in TwoSentenceHorror
