This was released as the second single from Gore on March 16, 2016. "It's got a rockin' rhythm and a high tech sound that will make you shake your body down to ground," frontman Chino Moreno said.
Deftones performed this live for the first time on March 5, 2016 at the Musink festival at the OC Fair & Events Center in Costa Mesa, California.
Guitarist Stephen Carpenter's riff for this song has a classic '80s influence. Moreno told Spin: "We all have similar taste in music, which is probably why we can be in a band together, but at the same time, we all have very different tastes. But the fact [is] that we are open-minded with one another's tastes and in the end, I don't care what style something is as long as it's good." "So like, if Stephen comes up with a heavy riff that is just good, like the song 'Doomed User' on the new record," he continued. "It's almost '80s metal throwback at a certain part. And like I was saying earlier, as much I'm not really into really aggressive stuff like that as much as I used to be, if it's undeniably good, I can find something within it that's inspiring and follow where that's going."
