So if the Banquet copies are coming from the US, does that mean that they came from the same plant and they'll have the same issues?

It says on their website their copies come from the first pressing, so its pretty likely.

So they're being sent to the UK just to turn around and send them back? Well damn. It's gonna be a month before they get to us.

Well,I'm in the UK so hopefully it won't take that long

i only got my US order a a week or two ago, so if it's coming from europe, i'd be a little more patient.

Beat me to it

Has ANYONE recived their pre order from banquet?

They don't have them yet. They are on their way to the UK now.

Theres going to be a song on Wednesday on Radio 1 in the UK. 7:30pm UK time, so 2:30 pm ET (I think)

Deftones - White Pony.

The only deftones song I knew was the shitty single version of back in school and I just ignored the band after that. But all the hype over the album led me to buying it a couple of years ago. I was missing out for a long time!

i think many of us know the difference between being disappointed by a record and actually listening to a terrible record.

I didn't mean any offence, I just genuinely don't think its a terrible record. 

I agree with you man, I'm still enjoying the A side to the record...listened to it about 7 times today and the songs just keep sounding better..I don't get all of the hate...It sounds like the band had a pretty clear idea of the record they wanted to make and they made it...I'm not saying its going to be the best album of the year but I would certainly pick listening to this over 90% of the rest of the stuff on Rise Records...

Yeah, I can get people hating the vocals or thinking its a couple of songs too long. But based on how the band changed their sound album to album in the past, this is pretty much what you'd expect them to sound like at this point in their career. I definitely agree that this is the album they wanted to make, for better or worse.

It seems a lot of people who hate this album were expecting it to be album of the year or whatever. If you go in expecting that the chances are you're always gonna be disappointed.

Did anyone else think there was guest vocalists on half the songs on first listen or was it just me? The albums growing on me after a few listens
