The thing with the s/t record is it just didn’t feel complete or fully finished... some songs felt like they gave up on them and/or were rushed. Nonetheless seen them at the metro in Chicago for this record when they 1st came back to town and played for almost 3 hours on Mother’s Day and it was the best I’ve ever seen them live out of the 4 times I’ve caught them.- Juice

Thank you for not putting Saturday Night Wrist at the bottom. I will never comprehend why most fans think it's their worst. The production/atmosphere is so spacey, ethereal, and lush. Chino's vocals soar over the mix better than ever have. And despite the band members being "in limbo," the album sounds very uniform to me, with only a couple tracks sounding messy. Also Koi No Yokan is my favorite, I feel it blends their artsy side with their heavy side the best.

That's awesome that you got that version of White Pony. I got into Deftones with Minerva and got the self-titled album first, but when I did get White Pony, probably in 2004 or so, I ended up with the white (bonus track) version that starts with Back to School, which I think was the most distributed one. When I listen to it on Spotify though, I start on Feiticeira. That's a superior opening track to Back to School.

Good video bud, I love This band 🤘

Bro, Romantic Dreams is an amazing track. Deftones + 3/4 time = eargasm. The instrumental at the end of the song gives me the same feeling as the end of Rosemary. Incredible.

Very nice video. Big fan of Deftones here too. On my top 5 bands along with Tool, Radiohead, Nirvana... I would just change Gore with Adrenaline.

Great review man! I agree with you on most points from the amazing songs on Koi that make up for any lack, to the throw aways at the end of DE which I too always skip. I remember being so floored with Rocket Skates cuz Chino was also healthier and was like ‘I am back with a vengeance!’ And I actually laughed out loud when you said, “I don’t think you can make a more perfect record than ATF, the problem is the Deftones did.”

Can't wait to hear Ohms!

Diamond Eyes the song never gets old for me. Love this band so much more than most music in general. My Own Summer I heard at a party when it came out, and I stopped what I was doing and just stared at the stereo. I had never heard anything like it and have been a huge fan ever since.

Deftones, along with 311, are those 2 bands from the 90s alternative movement that you go back to not because of only nostalgia but because they were actually good bands. I love watchin deftones and 311 albums ranked. Usually the ones at the bottom are the same but the top ones are all over the place. I love watchin these.

great thoughts, for me its when and where i listened to Deftones. I listened to their selftitled album late nights in Virginia so i like that, but I listened to Koi No Yokan on the coast of Maine which i LOVE. I talked to a girl from Bulgaria who said she loves Saturday Night Wrists which lead me to Cherry waves and Beware. Opinions vary so I think its whichever album has the most you like, which with White pony i agree. I only love Koi No Yokan even more because Deftones managed to stay consistent and mature with their sound and lyrics, thats why its up there for me!

The songs I love on it are just so unbelievably raw and passionate, and it's sound is so distinct from the rest of their discography. It also happens to be the album that I was introduced to first, so maybe that has an effect on me as well.

Andrew DeSumma White Pony, is my top pick then then 2nd place is Around The Fur, and Saturday Night Wrist, then 3rd place is Adrenaline. So i am pretty similar to your list just White Pony, above Around The Fur.

Great video man! I'd rank them 1. White Pony - An absolute classic, a 10/10, and the best metal album of all time imo. 2. Saturday Night Wrist - The best produced Deftones album. Great experimentation on this album too. Another one of my favourite albums of all time. 3. Around The Fur - 10 straight bangers. Just awesome songs that are catchy but punchy too. The weird time signatures are just another level of their songwriting which would be mastered on White Pony. 4. Koi No Yokan - amazing atmosphere on this album. I'm a huge shoegaze fan so this album is right up my alley. 5. Deftones - Their most underrated album that is so heavy and dark. The songwriting is a little less interesting but the vibe of the album is amazing. Also Hexagram is their best song. 6. Diamond Eyes - The most overrated album imo but it has great highlights especially Beauty School. The production is just really blown out and bland. Plus is has a few filler songs. 7. Adrenaline - Pretty dated and the songwriting is really one dimensional compared to Around The Fur. Plus the lyrics are kinda edgy and silly. 8. Gore - Garbage album. Doomed User is the only good song on it. The production and mixing on here is a trainwreck. They need a come back from this album ASAP.

Ohms as the WORST?! I can't vibe with that man. But I appreciate the list!

my own summer is awesome

01 Diamond Eyes (Songs like sextape, beauty school, this place is death, 976-evil are what made this album have a perfect balance - and unexpected for the better - between agression and heart. It worked for me as a truly deftones rebirth, when many thought they were done!) 02 Koi No Yokan (...And indeed they were reborn! Man! what a beautifull atmospheric record +Perfect cover!) 03 White Pony (What can I say?) 04 Around the Fur (First time I heard about DEFTONES. and this was deftones at their most aggressive vein - My Own Summer and Be Quiet and Drive are classics - but a little too Nu-Metal for me. Still, it is an important album in the band's career.) 05 Gore (Despite the production and mixing issues, this is a record that make me float everytime I put on my headphones. I love when Prayers/ Triangles shift into Acid Hologram -it gives me the chills! - and Geometric Headdress, Hearts /Wires, LMIRL...only tracks I don't like: Doomed user and Xenon. 06 S-T( I probably should give another spin on this record I just don't have good memories about it...probably not the album´s fault) 07 Adrenaline (Birthmark is my favorite) 08 Saturday Night Wrist (I remember buying this album without any expectations and really enjoying two songs on it and hating others like: Rats rats rats, Rapture...meh. Hole in the earth and Cherry waves are the best tracks. Reverie, Kimdracula, Xerces, Beware so and so.. But as a whole this album doesn't work. Also Chino hates it. ) I didn't expect to love the "2nd life" of this band more, but I do. I do think they grew stronger has a band and the atmospherics and songwritting process just seemed to improve over the years.

1.) Saturday Night Wrist 2.) Koi No Yokan 3.) White Pony 4.) Deftones 5.) Around the Fur 6.) Diamond Eyes 7.) Ohms 8.) Adrenaline 9.) Gore

I managed to stumble across this video again, and realized that the ranking I left has changed quite a bit! So here's how I would rank them now: 8. Gore (Light 6/10) 7. Deftones (7/10) completely agree that Lucky You shouldn't be on the album 6. Adrenaline (7/10) 5. Koi no Yokan (8/10) 4. Saturday Night Wrist (8/10) 3. Diamond Eyes (10/10) 2. Around the Fur (10/10) 1. White Pony (10/10) And yes, think all 3 of those are perfect albums! Love everything about them. Can't wait for the next album, sounds pretty great from that 10 second clip they teased recently!

Personally, I would put White Pony in the top ten albums ever, so no worries about it being top Deftones album.

I thought you did a really good job with your list. Very thoughtful and to that i give my respect. My rankings would diff slightly with yours but all in all i cant argue alot of your selections. I do agree with Gore being my least favorite and therefore their least interesting record. Its not a bad record lets get that straight, Deftones dont make bad records :)

Don't really have bad things to say about it.) 4) Koi no Yokan (really digged this one. Grew on me a whole lot) 5) Deftones (Some of my favorite songs are on this one. Hexagram, Bloody cape, Minerva are amazing. Just wish the production was a bit better.) 6) Diamond Eyes (not a big fan of this record unlike most people.

@arkoverload

3 жыл бұрын

Yeah I don't think you need to be a Tool fan to know that the chorus to Passenger is EPIC

I like that's the best and most universal way to describe Deftones is "the feels". Yeah, can relate. My two cents: 8) "Gore". Similarly was excited to hear a new Deftones record, was sorta hesitant after "Prayers/Triangles" (bit watered down, bit straightfowrard) and then excited again after "Doomed User" (a combo of elements that shouldn't work but absolutely does), and ultimately lost focus in the process of listening to the full thing. Melodies and harmonies on a lot of tracks seem to be on autopilot. "Hearts/Wires" is a great song but even that one seems to be pulling on their own older hits. 7) "Adrenaline". Humble beginnings as they are, the album has the misfortune of being part of a mostly stellar catalogue and it feels a bit alien now, too rough and simplistic for its length. You can hear both the raw talent and at the same time the work that is yet to be done. Maybe if I heard it in isolation it would've left a different impression. Of course, "Engine no.9", "Bored", "Root" all rip to this day. 6) "Koi No Yokan". Trends that became apparent on "Gore" first surfaced here, some songs like "Graphic Nature" and "Gauze" feel like treaded water, "Romantic Dreams" is a bit scatterbrained and aimless, "Rosemary" has a great intro, a monster bridge but the actual chorus seems arbitrary and the outro is basically "Diamond Eyes" again but less propulsive. "Tempest" and "Leathers" are definete triumphs. 5) Self-titled. Yeah, a definite victim of "following the huge success" syndrome, a general feeling of meandering permeates certain cuts, but when your opening is "Hexagram" (this is what a summer sunset will always sound like to me) and it's followed up by "Needles and Pins", you definetely got something right. Also I think they got comfortable with being really slow and dreamy on "Minerva" and "Death Blow" which played a big part in the future. 4) "Saturday Night Wrist". Uneven and of a tumultuous origin this record however contains some of Deftones' peak songwriting - "Beware", "Cherry Waves", "Hole In The Earth", "Kimdracula" are achingly beautiful. The heavier cuts are lacking in my opinion but the melodic stuff is some of their best. 3) "Around The Fur". An absolute leap of progress after the debut, two genious-level cuts that are now live staples, a much stronger grasp on atmosphere (namely, including seductiveness into angst) and the most corrosive and violent of Chino's performances on "Lotion" and "Rickets". But the art of the slower, mellower song was yet to be perfected. 2) "Diamond Eyes". A comeback to be taught in schools. Every hook lands, every melody glues to the brain, the full spectrum of emotion on display, risks that pay off (metal Rnb-blues on "You've Seen The Butcher", alternative rock with new-wave flavours on "Beauty School"), the record comes out swinging from the gargantuan title track (which is just as majestic as it is vicious) and takes you on a ride all the way down to the hazy lands of "This Place Is Death". 1) "White Pony". Duh.

Ditto. Fantastic verse and overall groove

Great video mate! I can really tell how passionate you are about Deftones. Maybe I may disagree with the songs on S/T and ATF you dislike, considering Deathblow and Dai the Flu are songs I absolutely enjoy, but the list is right on point. Agree completely that the few epic tracks on KNY take the whole album to another level. Here's my list below. 8. Adrenaline 7. Gore (I'm with you on the production for this album. It was complete shit compared to the pristine, layered production of Rasculinecz or the muddy, murky flourishes of Terry Date) 6. Saturday Night Wrist (The transition from Beware to Cherry Waves is probably my favourite transition of all time) 5. Deftones (When girls telephone boys is an absolute banger of a track and probably features Chino at his most poetic, violent and visceral) 4. Around the fur (Controversial choice for me too :D. Frankly I absolutely adore this album and some of its tracks are their best ever in my opinion. My first record was White Pony, so ATF was something that took me awhile to appreciate as something different from the Deftones I fell in love with) 3. Diamond Eyes (The first 4 tracks on this album completely blew me away. I went from the monstrous, stormy sound of Royal's outro to the razor sharp, cutting intro to CMND/CTRL. That really did it for me. The production on this album was top notch, and was what I thought to be their best. Until I heard Koi No Yokan. Without a doubt, their most consistent album from start to finish) 2. Koi No Yokan (This is Deftones attaining epic status. Tracks like Entombed, Leathers and the trifecta of Tempest, Gauze and Rosemary really took me to another place. Loved how ethereal it was. Definitely my favourite Deftones album cover, and probably one of my all time favourites. Very ambiguous and open to interpretation. I think it fits really well with the lyrical and musical material on this album too, which gave Deftones more of a prog sensibility) 1. White Pony (I am yet to find an album in Deftones' discography which is as varied as White Pony - SNW comes a close second. It has this lovely, lush, moody, industrial vibe which made them sound radically different from the 40-odd nu metal bands which sprung up in the late 90s, including themselves. It really cemented them as an experimental band which pushed the envelope and tried new sounds with every album, and kind of is the reason Deftones are still out there and making great music to this day. From the opening track, which was so random and structurally out of the box, to Knife Prty's wailing interlude, to probably the best vocal collaboration of all time AKA Passenger)

Dragon's Den duuuuuuude I love your list! Absolutely agree with all your reasoning as well. Diamond Eyes and KNY being so damn good is part of the reason why Gore doesn’t work for me. I know they’re capable of so much more. Rock on 🤘🏼

@@arkoverload Yeah, Gore was kind of an expectation subversion. I too had high expectations from it after the 4 year long wait. I liked parts of the album, but on the whole it's a bit meh. Structurally not very sound and all over the place, not in a good way. I could actually appreciate SNW's jarring tonal shifts, because every track had the band trying something new.

I just back to back the discography this weekend in anticipation and I realised how solid Saturday night wrists and Koi no yokan. So I think you’re a little off here is the list worst to best -Deftones -adrenaline -Saturday night wrists -gore -koi no yoken -diamond eyes -around the fur -white pony

It's my go-to, will listen to anytime, any place album)** 3-Around the Fur **(the album that got me hooked on deftones)** 4-Saturday Night Wrist **(Beware and Cherry Waves are fucking beautiful)** 5- Ohms**( it's beyond rare for bands that have been around as long as Deftones, to still drop albums half as good as this album is)** 6-Self Titled ** (grew on me over the years)** 7-Adrenaline **(the fact that it's #6 on my list just proves their the best band of all time)** 8-Koi 9- Gore **(I tried really hard to get this album but just never did)**

My personal list: Saturday night wrist White pony Around the fur. Self titled. Koi no yokan. Adrenaline. Gore Diamond eyes

I could never rank Around The Fur and White Pony ahead of Diamond Eyes and Koi No Yokan. White Pony was the gateway to Deftones realizing their POTENTIAL. POTENTIAL but by far not their best work. Also what can't be denied is the effect Nick Raskulinecs had on their sound. Koi and Diamond Eyes are a tie for top spot, White Pony close second for opening the door, SNW close third and hugely underrated and Around The Fur for nostalgia and watching Deftones as kids starting figuring things out. The atmospherics and songwriting confidence displayed on what I call the BIG 3 (SNW, Koi, Diamond) are what separates Deftones from all of their peers. Every time I listen to White Pony now I remember how it all started but that album now pales in comparison to the others. At that time, Deftones didn't have the vision and creative skill to create tracks like Poltergeist, Beauty School, Hole In The Earth, Sextape, Romantic Dreams, Leathers, Kimdracula, Rosemary and on and on and on. This was their sweet spot. They started to peak after self titled. This is the work that made them legends and set them apart from all others unlike tracks like Change, My Own Summer, Be Quiet And Drive etc. These are candy tunes compared to future masterpieces. White Pony is a crucial album in the band's development and a bonafide classic and reference point in their careers but continually overrated IMO compared to their future work. Great video. Thanks for the work you put into this. My God.... Deftones are so fucking incredible.

Love hearing you talk.. No homo
