Thread: Deftones

Started 2 years, 6 months ago by Pigdestroyer
Probably the only band i enjoy that would fall under the catagory of "Nu Metal". Great band. Anyhow i saw them a few months back in Manchester for the first time, ended up being one of the best gigs ive ever been to, abso-f***ing-lutly amazing show. Ive now got their entire discography, and i cannot stop listening to them. They have to be one of the most experimental/creative hard ...

first 3 albums were amazing...and still are....but now they just sound the same all the time...making the same slow/moody/mellow type songs.....lost their originality... fav songs:bored and passenger

Their latest album is amazing, self-titled is boring. Rest of their albums are good too. Best nu-metal band, apart from SOAD, Mudvayne and Slipknot. I don't consider these bands to be strictly nu-metal though, they all have substance.

Pigdestroyer replied 2 years, 6 months ago
I have to disagree with you there, i respect your opinion, but i think most nu metal bands including, mudvayne, SOAD, and slipknot (not these days anyway) dont have any substance. I wouldnt strictly say Deftones were Nu metal. They do have a Nu Metal edge to them yes, but the majority of the stuff is experimental, progressive rock. The bands i listen to are very obscure, ISIS, Old Man...

i class them as alternative metal...the old stuff did have its nu metal bits here and their though.

I LOVE the deftones. I wish they weren't lumped in with nu-metal.....so many people just shun them off right away because of that label...and I dont even hear the nu-metal in them. They sound like a experimental rock/metal hybrid more than nu metal. There coming to where I live (Vancouver) but its 19+!!! GRRRR

i like alot of their stuff, especially on white pony, but imo i think alot of the nu metal bands have alot more substance than people give them credit for, sure they only use like 6 chords in a song, but alot of the lyrical content is amazing, ill nino, disturbed, soad, deftones, early 30 seconds to mars, if you dig deeper you find some things

they aren't nu metal anymore. I wouldn't say they have been since Adrenaline.

I actually meant Around the Fur, not Adrenaline :P. Around the Fur is their best. I don't know what I was thinking of at the time, but I was confused. People probably don't care, but I'll explain why I love it so. My own summer has an awesome riff. Chinos vocals are just awesome in the chorus and the whispery verses. The bridge with the god/tongue/moving bit is super. Lhabia has the most heavy yet beautiful chorus I've...
