Deftones Band • Page 75

I like about three quarters of it, but I don't think some of the ultra-aggressive tracks ("Rapture," "Rats! Rats! Rats!") work very well alongside the darker, electronic ones. I also think Chino sounds worse on this album than any other, something live performances from that era seem to echo.

It's experimental and interesting to hear and read about, but it's also just messy in a way Deftones albums usually aren't. It's 8-9 strong tracks, 2-3 weaker ones and then "Pink Cellphone," however you want to categorize that.

 

Rapture is a rager

 

Rats Rats Eats too. SNW has slowly turned into one of my favorites from this band, maybe even my favorite

 

While I respect the magnitude of White Pony, KNY is their best to me.

 

LMIRL might be my new fav underrated track

 

we've been through this

snw is their best

 

My favorite Deftones record will probably always be White Pony, but my number two rotates between Around the Fur, S/T, and Diamond Eyes these days. I love all of their albums so much, it’s hard to pick favorites.

I still think White Pony is their best but Diamond Eyes feels like a spiritual successor to that record and gives it a run for its money

 

self titled all day baybeeeeee

 

Need to revisit self-titled today. It used to be my favorite.

 

Needles & Pins from ST is my current fav Deftones song. Checking out some live vids of it from 2003 yesterday and there is no guitar in the song?! 2 Bass guitars, with Steph playing through a guitar amp with distortion! Cool as hell

 

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about this but they did the same thing on the SNW tour in 07. Pretty dope.

 

yeah okay self-titled still rips wowee

 

obligatory Hexagram appreciation post

 

and the crowd goes WIIIIIIIILD

 

His best screams imo but I love the "God it's so sweet of you..." lines most of all

 

They have to start recording this year...right?

 

I’d be surprised if they’re not in the studio by the end of the year. Chino said they were already writing last year right?

 

I really hope they stick with the statement saying Steph would be bringing the riffffs

 

I want Steph to bring the lush chords.

 

You twist everything else arounddddd
Nowyoufuknwithmaaaaayyyyyy

 

EVERYTHING IS FIIIINE

EVERYTHING'S JUST FIIIINE

EEEEERRRIUIIFTHHJHJINGIBBBKFIIIIIIIIINE

 

I'd be ok waiting if it meant more Crosses.

 

Crosses is actually way better than a side project should be
