The sonic exploration we heard on “Diamond Eyes” is much more refined here. Certainly an album of that stature is hard to follow up, is it not? Well worry not Deftones fans, they’ve outdone themselves yet again. In 2010, “Diamond Eyes” finally saw the band making material which stood up to the seemingly unreachable benchmark set by their magnum opus, “White Pony”. The latter opinion thinks of the times when good singles brought about terrible albums and wonders “is this album going to disappoint?” Over the years, Deftones have released great album after great album, and after 24 years, they don’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon. With singles like this you have two different opinions at work the people chanting “AOTY” and the avid listener now unsure if the album will compare to the other gems of the Deftones discography. With singles like “Leathers” and “Tempest”, Deftones fans saw new material which topped everything they heard on “Diamond Eyes”. Though singles get the majority of fans hyped for a release, they also bring about some paranoia. Review Summary: Yeah, it’s a Deftones release, but it ain’t just another Deftones release.
