My Own Bracket (Shove It) Bracket • Page 2

That’s a big driving point to doing these brackets. Listen to the albums over the course of the day, or ahead of time. I feel like some make brackets out to be so complicated and really you’re just jamming music and placing votes on whichever you like most. I enjoy it greatly.

 

You're a God for this one @bachna84

Going to cry when/if "Digital Bath" and "Sextape" are eliminated. Those would probably be my two I'd want to win most, but with the Deftones, I'm sure we'll have a very very worthy winner

Sextape is a great contender. There's only 2 others i'd vote for over it on that album.

 

Okay, I'll take the bait! Go on!

 

I'd be good with "Cherry Waves" winning this whole thing too. This band is just too good

 

Vertical Horizon bracket coming up next!

;)

 

It’s everything I want, it’s everything I need.

 

Let’s just see how the bracket lays out :)

 

Hey thanks to @Nate_Johnson I have heard their newest record, so I could vote during two of their records!

 

Their discography is pretty amazing. @anonimito is an expert and knows A LOT and would be a great resource. I might participate in The Deftones and Vertical Horizon if it does happen.

 

Yeah, this is my issue but I’ll tag along for the ride as long as I can.

 

Ok, let's get this started!

A few quick notes/reminders before we start:

1) Brackets are made with a random bracket generator - if you don't like the matchups, don't blame me!
2) We'll start with Adrenaline and move forward - the order that we do the brackets in will be what is listed in the first post.
3) In order for your votes to count, you must vote for every matchup in a given round. It is not required to vote for every round in a particular bracket.
4) Each round will be open a minimum of 24 hours, regardless of vote totals. Weekend rounds may last a little longer. I know some brackets in the past have had a "run rule" but I'd like this to be a somewhat more relaxed schedule and I don't want people to feel like they have to be checking this thread constantly for fear of missing out on a round.

If anyone has questions throughout, please ask!

Setlist from the one time I was lucky enough to see this band live.

Deftones Setlist at ESL Sports Centre, Rochester

 

Nice!!!

I’ve seen them twice. First time was in 2010 supporting Diamond Eyes (posted that one a few days ago) and the most recent time was in 2016 at a festival. Still a pretty solid setlist I think!

Deftones Setlist at Rock on the Range 2016

 

These are the sets I've seen (not including festivals), I had tickets to their London show on the Koi No Yoken tour too but was ill the day of the gig

Deftones Setlist at Brixton Academy, London

Deftones Setlist at Portsmouth Guildhall, Portsmouth

Deftones Setlist at O2 Academy Brixton, London

Every time I've seen them they've been incredible (including the couple of festival sets).

 

1) Engine No. 9
2) One Weak
3) 7 Words

 

I'll be the first to give Fireal some love.

Really cool first match up!

 

It’s been a minute since I listened to Adrenaline in full. Will be doing that on the way home from work today.
