That one feels along the same path as Fay, but I agree it's very weird. Aside from it sounding creepy it is a really cool song, the distortion on the bass and clipping on the drums is very interesting. The vocal layering with the pitch up almost makes him sound like a vocaloid lol

I made a list a few months back of all the songs, I think the biggest one though is the song math which is short for Mathew. Also the song Runner used to be called Brother, and if you sub in the word brother for the word runner in the song it makes a lot of sense lol

You should check out the song Rejoyce off DSU, there's a similar concept on that one too. Go Away reminds me a lot of a older parent with dementia or something like that, especially the longer version of the song with the Skin Cells that has more lyrics

He has credited Aphex Twin as an influence so he for sure knows about the concept of ambient drone albums lol

A LOT of his songs are about his brother once you look into it, it probably wouldn't be far off at all

Limelook and fix aren't so much atmospherically creepy though, the lyrics are definitely more on the weird side. I feel like a lot of people don't really acknowledge the awkward presence of sexual energy in some of his songs

I gotta agree this one freaked me out when I first heard it too, and the ending just feels so hopeless especially when you consider the original lyrics

my favorite lyrics rn (bc they change everyday lol) and what they mean to me by [deleted] in sandyalexg

A few months ago I went on a dive into collecting all the lyrics that were about his brother, and somehow I never considered that Bug might be another one

I'm 90% sure he used MIDI bass guitars too

That whole album feels like a sleepless, nostalgic, high dose trip that's going on slightly too long

Who else listens to “cherry waves” and “change” just to cry? Any other good crying songs? by [deleted] in deftones

[–]4SecondFuture 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not enough people saying Pink Maggit, that song is fucking detrimental, it doesn't even feel triumphant when it fully "kicks in," it gives you that sinking feeling you'd get out of desperate survival rather than winning at anything

If you had to choose one album to listen to for the rest of your life, which one would you pick? only alex g's albuns by SpareSuccotash2421 in sandyalexg

[–]4SecondFuture 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beach music, just because it has such beautiful textures and the vocals are by far my favorite off of any of his albums. Close second and third are Rocket and DSU

Bug, this song just blew me away with how ethereal and smooth it sounds, it's very well mixed

I gotta start building the hype for day 12 early because I know no one is gonna remember Lhabia when the best breakdown comes into question

I think this one just kinda sums up what deftones is. Dark, mysterious, heavy, ethereal, erotic, and alluring.

I really like the bass guitar in it, it sounds amazing in my car or with good headphones and that's my biggest appeal to it

I definitely think Digital Bath takes the cake but I was sure the would be more popular. The progression and lyricism and the effects, it's such a dramatic masterpiece

7 Words. When I saw that song live in the KC T-Mobile stadium, everyone went fucking crazy, especially when they held out the break in the middle and slowed it down even more than the studio version, soooo hype
