I have no idea what kind of aesthetic the Eros album art or it's many fan-made iterations fall under, but I'll be damned if it isn't the most oddly entrancing thing I've ever seen. SNW felt like a precursor but this hits the nail on the weird, indescribable head. Something about the use of water, sparing use of plant life, and warm, glowing colors with hints of dark green is incredible.

@HEXAGRAM-mo4cg

Great thought, SNW is probably my favorite album of all time ever since it dropped day one. But this album would have definitely been a follow up to that pain and suffering and I think they wanted to escape it desperately. I am so glad we still have deftones today, no matter whats been going on internally.

This and Smile man.... Makes me truly believe in the possibility that Eros may be thier magnum opus/finest work.... Rock gods plz let us be graced with this masterpiece at some point. Even if its thier final record what a way to honor Chi man. Deftones fan for 20+ years and they haven't faultered a beat.

The melody. It sounds so empty and sad, yet so beautiful, peaceful and nostalgic in a way. It takes me back to a place I’ve never been to and makes me miss someone I’ve never met.. if that makes sense. This is for sure my favorite Deftones track! Smile was pretty badass as well and I have a strong feeling that Eros could be their best and most important album, never to be heard. I do hope that we get the pleasure to listen to Eros one day. The perfect way for them to drop it, in my opinion, would be to release it as their final album and this piece of music right here should be the last track on it. As a farewell, an end of an era.

If you started with the Deftones from the beginning, you might like the band "Relative Ash", though they sound more like Adrenaline/Around the Fur era Deftones. They were amazing live and really cool people, too. I still have a shirt somewhere that the band all signed after hanging out a long while just talking to us. They didn't graduate onto the more atmospheric sound the Deftones did after White Pony (which hadn't released yet when RA's album was recorded) but had they kept going I always felt they probably would have, they were very Tones-influenced. If you search relative ash their album "Our Time With You" should come up, it still holds up on its own merits imo.

Although in recent days the drive to complete the album has kind of dwindled but I have faith they'll get into a certain mood one day and they will want to sit down and work off of what material they have towards the album. One can hope. Personally I think it would be kind of disrespectful to the fans to NOT hear what Eros had to offer, but that's just my opinion.

One of the most anticipated albums yet to see release ever, it's still too painful for the band to revisit & complete it (Chino & Abe have stated it's about 75-80% done), but they seem more interested in moving forward & not going back. We may only see a retrospective release when the band is all said & done, if at all. A shame. Rest In Peace Chi Cheng, never forgotten 🙏

The og's remember. They were being so open with the making of eros more so than ever before, and ever again. They were giving us clips and studio updates, they played melanie, they brought td back and the hype was there. Pretty fucked how things turn out sometimes. Shout out to the old sl board.

someday this masterpiece of an album will be released.

Its been awhile now since GORE is out last year. Cant stop listening to any DEFTONES songs. They are an amazing band!!

This song is awesome. The guitar just sings and expresses so much emotion. I find it to be somewhat of an energetic cleanse - in a good way...

listening to this waiting for Ohms...

Damn i wish there was a better quality version of this, and no vocals needed. That little guitar melody and the cool beat from Abe make this so good...

I'm in love. This track is somehow still unreleased? It's got so much atmosphere, emotion and tone. Abe's playing is so tight along with the guitar riff by Stef. Now I just want this album.

this riff so sick!!!

its sad that we never officially got this album but knowing why they didnt want to release this just reinforces the fact that Deftones has to be the greatest band to ever exist

I’ve been a fan of the Deftones since “Adrenaline” came out when I was in high school. And hearing this makes me even sadder and angrier that Chi Cheng passed away. Besides losing an amazing musician this record sounds like it would have been up there with the best of the Deftones material!

Eros is a reference to Greek mythology. Eros was what is the modern day cupid. Wish more people in this thread knew that

I'm not sure they even know the importance of this song...or maybe they do and that's why it is aloud to stay like this on this platform.
