Jul 23, 2022Solid and consistent. Every song is a great song, specially Rosemary, which in my opinion is the best Deftones song ever made.

Jul 4, 2022While many claim White Pony to be their best record, I really have to give that distinction to Koi No Yokan. This record is Deftones at their creative peak. It challenges each member to their fullest potential, and really encapsulates what makes the 'Tones so special. Rosemary, especially, is quite special and what I would call their magnum opus.

Sep 1, 2021Absotutely enchanting. I'm still stunned to this day how hard and how ethereal this entirely album. Easily one of their best albums and one of their most impressive. I can only think of Leathers and Gauze as being the only mediocre songs on this album. Everything else is just, pure magic.

May 22, 2017This is what I mean when I say "masterpiece", songs like Tempest, Rosemary and Leathers should make people understand that this is one of the greatest album of the last 10 years.
Entombed will forever have a place in my heart. -
Sep 24, 2015Deftones are a rare breed. With every release, they become stronger and more confident. Typically we see the opposite in the field of metal, right?
With Koi No Yokan we hear true musicianship. Deftones never let up, and they keep the heat on from the moment "Swerve City" pounds into life until the final beats of "What Happened to You?". -

Jan 12, 2013Best album since White Pony.
This album has all the thrills and melodic tones you would expect from Deftones. Except this album takes it to a new level. -

Dec 18, 2012Possibly my favorite metal album this year. The riffs hit hard and Chinos vocals are as great as ever. There musicianship leaves me in awe throughout many of the songs on this album. Possibly this is the best i heard them play.

Dec 14, 2012Koi No Yokan is a beautiful album. I listen to a variety of music and this album is probably the best this year by far. The songs hit a range of emotion and are executed beautifully. I feel like this album is worthy of a Grammy and will be very disappointed if they don't get at least nominated.

Dec 11, 2012These guys kind of punched me right in the face with Koi No Yokan. They demolish their guitars, they take it back to Rage in their prime, and sometimes they sound like they're writing hip worship music. At both ends, it's pretty fascinating, simultaneously rigid and crafted with ease.

Nov 25, 2012Deftones have been making music for 24 years, and unlike most bands they haven't made a bad album yet! The biggest band on this planet. Koi No Yokan instantly had me hooked, an instant classic in my books.

Nov 19, 2012back to their best at last! always a massive fan - everything after white pony up until diamond eyes was a bit average but still the odd good track. every song on this album is wholeheartedly deftones, stand outs include 'Leathers,' 'Tempest' and 'Gauze.' not so hot on 'goon squad'
