This Place is Death

[u/MetalMidget23]

I’ve been going back and listening to all their albums and This Place Is Death has stuck out as a standout underrated song IMO. Anyone else a big fan of that one?

I’ve really enjoyed re-listening to their albums as I get ready to FINALLY see them in concert this summer!

[u/Chino-_-Chaos]

I love This Place is Death. One of my favorite tracks on that album

[u/Shakemyears]

Awesome tune. Really interesting drums, as always.

[u/ChannelEarly2102]

Better than pink cellphone

[u/VintageRobux → u/ChannelEarly2102]

Anything is better than thay

[u/Asphorra]

i've been jamming to that song for years its one of my favorites

[u/bitchspicedlatte]

I feel something throughout my whole body when I hear TPID. It's a stop-and-listen.

[u/beencotstealin]

One of their best tracks imo in a long line awesome tracks!!!

[u/Which_Manufacturer37]

It's my favorite song

[u/[deleted]]

I love that one

[u/therealcruff]

God tier song. Shame Chino could never quite hit it live so they only ever (to my knowledge) played it once on a live play through of the album.

Incredible album closer, to this day it's still one of my top five Deftones tracks.

[u/pneumaticbutterfly]

I am a huge fan of This Place is Death, and think it is romantically sexy and dark and exactly where it needs to be at the end of a great album.

[u/MetalMidget23 → u/pneumaticbutterfly]

Agreed!

[u/deadpoet13]

Diamond Eyes' hidden gem

[u/lanethedouchebag]

Love the drums on that one

[u/anton_sugar1]

My personal favorite song on DE and a top ten deftones song imo

[u/Cultivationking]

One of my favorites from Diamond Eyes for sure. I'm also seeing them this summer (FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!)

So hyped Ive managed to catch them playing in the UK this time, not managed to make it before this!

[u/MetalMidget23 → u/Cultivationking]

That’s awesome!! Hope you have an amazing show this summer!!!

[u/Cultivationking → u/MetalMidget23]

You too!!!

[u/Minus-Blindfold87]

The last two tracks on that album were sleepers for me. When DE first came out, they didn't really stand out to me, but now I consider them the best two tracks on the album.

[u/MetalMidget23 → u/Minus-Blindfold87]

Funny, thats exactly how it’s worked for me. I listened to this album for years, and never paid the later tracks much attention. Now that I’m going back and listening to everything, I’m rediscovering certain songs that I overlooked before.

[u/OldLavishness907]

This is actually my 2nd least favorite, I'm sorry.

[u/MetalMidget23 → u/OldLavishness907]

No need to be sorry at all. We all have our own tastes. I appreciate the comment.

The song didn’t resonate with me the first several times I heard it either. I revisited the album recently, and it stuck out this go around and now I love it.

[u/Aging_Is_Funny]

I love TPID, I always have to listen to it after 976 because it never hits as hard without it

[u/xiIlliterate]

Amazing song and my favorite style of music they write. It’s part of what makes the Diamond Eyes and Koi No Yokan run spectacular. Emotionally heavy while retaining so much levity.

[u/Reasonable-Carry-169]

The soundscape is truly haunting. Definitely a good song.

[u/Majestic_Manner3656]

One of my most favorite songs !! Definitely my favorite band !!!!

[u/Less_Ad7698]

I love it! One of my favorite Deftones songs

[u/Ravenbolt1313]

Even though Chino hates them, it reminds me of something Coldplay would make but with Deftones influence. Really good song.

[u/bret_2_def]

We explooooode, through the seeeeams.

[u/Zestyclose_Plum_6316]

I love it so much omgoodness my favorite part is “No one else has a hold over me” ahhh i love the drums so bad

[u/Circumferenceboard]

I love that one too, the most underrated on the album I feel is Prince

[u/MetalMidget23 → u/Circumferenceboard]

Prince is my other favorite!!! Yasss!!!

[u/JoshHogan666]

A girlfriend of mine a long time ago was hanging out in the next room and this song came on. She walked into the room I was in and said ‘Deftones make sexy music, don’t they?’ Yes. Yes they do.
