love the deftones.
my fave album is "Around the fur" ... but i haven't picked up the new one yet.
fave song has to be MX - track 10 on around the fur. i've got a couple of deftones bootlegs that have a lot of rare b-sides and rarities. one is a great live cover of weezer's "say it ain't so." from what i hear, chino moreno worships pj harvey and rivers cuomo.
they also have some other covers - one of duran duran's "the chauffeur" and a song called "please please please let me get what i want." don't know who that's by.

the things i like most about deftones are their overall more melancholy feel in contrast to the rage most harder rock acts have. i also love chino's lyrics - they're very poetic.
afxNUMB - are you speaking of white pony? the best screamer songs on there are KOREA and ELITE

I thought they were talented until the last album came out. Then I realized chino is gay and untalented and allows himself to be controlled by the record company.

especially with this newest album it shows, i think their albums have always gotten progressively worse in general, but all of the albums have enough really good songs to make it still worth the purchase..

i think the white pony was their best, i thought the new one was balls, absolute crap......
but you can't fuck with digital bath, or the single (change or whatever), OR the last track. or the last track on the lim. eds. which, by they way, looked cool as hell (especially when you compare them to...oh, i dunno, the new album! which, allow me to point out has a skull and roses on it).

you are probably talking about Hexagram....maybe When Girls Telephone Boys.....??
"AND THE CROWD GOES WILD"!!!!
The Deftones rock, they are a big influence in the music I make.
Sure, maybe the deftones have sold out a little to the record companies......but their music is still rockin' badass, and I'm not really worried about marketing/videos/whatever in the music business.....it's all the SOUND....
and Chino is definitely NOT gay (he's married), and he is VERY talented,
Can you sing that high and go straight into the best scream in hard rock today??....no
i love Chino's screams, and his mic-cupping techniques, I'm learning to master them.
Chi Cheng the bass player is so sick as well........he is writing a "Biography" sort of thing while he's on tour and stuff.....but he'll never release it.....he's just that wicked.....
anyway.......yeah! and this isn't a Fifth Element thread, but it could be!
(maybe I should have split this post up into like 4 replies...)

passenger has james maynard keenan from tool singing. i like everything alot. cant listen to the last one, so i dont really know how shite it is. but it sounds like a watered down white pony and therefor sucks: i liked the way they were going with white pony, only they should have kept going. i like no8 of it though, the one that's on the matrix soundtrack, sounds kinda idm-ish to me

Meshuggah are great, been following them for a long time (Saw them supporting Machine Head in 95) but Tool and Deftones must be the two most overrated bands in the genre. Well both of them used to be great but they've just completely dropped off in recent years, especially Deftones who've crapped all over the good work they've done in the past. Tool I think have nothing more to offer, they obviously peaked with Aenima.

i think white pony was somewhat draft-like, but somehow genius. i see how around the fur is less then adrenaline, less 'catchy' songs (the simplicity of the songs of those to albums make them great).
i dont see why a lot of people think lateralis is that bad: i like 1, 8, 9, and 10 and 11 (? that india stuff, only the first too). meshuggah keep getting better at what they do, they're great.
do you know the special defects album by frederick thornedahl btw? that's cool too: so death metal-jazz crossover.

I know what I'm talking about. Just because everyone started frothing over them went they went all experimental doesn't mean I have to suck their dicks too. The new stuff blows, end of story.

Did I get too defensive? :D
Well I'm not sure... it's easy to say that every elite fan thinks the standard drops with each subsequent release, but it's hardly something I'd wager money on. I can't think of another band I've heard every album by where I feel this way about the releases.... *thinks*... nope. Well, maybe Korn. And Limp Bizkit. Hmm. Now I see a pattern....

I saw them on the White Pony tour...one helluva show. Every five minutes someone was getting carted off with a bloody face, and Chino kept doing backflips into the crowd.
Favorite song: It's a tie between Birthmark or Mascara.
