Deftones - TBA (2025) • forum.chorus.fm

 

That's why I love it. SNW was my first Deftones record and that was a standout song to me as a 20 year old. Seeing them open the set at my first Deftones show with that track was absolutely a highlight. This was 2007 I think. Maybe 06. That was an Unhinged, feral, pit. Core memory.

Xerces is also a standout simply because me, the gf (now wife), and a friend went to a strip club in Minneapolis in 2010 and a dancer randomly did her routine to Xerxes. I mean, it worked.

 

Kimdracula is not only an underrated track on SNW but their entire discography. Can't help but stupidly smile at that absolutely nasty, opening riff

 

it’s a very minor thing but my favorite part of Rats!Rats!Rats! is the little pinch harmonic that happens at the end of the intro right before the vocals come in.

 

Rats and Rapture both seem like their most genuine attempts at janky angular post hardcore and I love them both for that reason

 

Y'all about to have me throw on SNW randomly at work on a Tuesday.

 

Rivière might be my favorite album closer from them. It's hard to choose though honestly.

 

Saturday Night Wrist was never my favorite but I do love Kimdracula. I should give the whole thing a spin soon, been listening to a lot of Self-Titled this week.

 

Yeah it’s been a long time since I’ve listened to that album front-to-back but SNW has some of my favorites on theirs. Cherry Waves is easily a top 10 track for me

 

It's honestly my second favorite track at this point--after Digital Bath

 

starting with Gore

maybe Diamond Eyes a little later

 

Diamond Eyes and Koi No Yokan are still my two favorites, I think Self-Titled is third

 

Beware my favourite Deftones song honestly

 

I was somewhat surprised they didn't play Cherry Waves on this tour, considering how much that song blew up on TikTok. I wouldn't expect them to "chase a trend" per se, but I thought they might've played it anyways.
