Deftones / Re: Deftones Bullshit Thread
Last post by DefFsho - Sep 04, 2025, 08:40 PMOn this very day, let's not let us old heads forget where these guys once were and are now with a label as big as Warner music group. I would much rather the band own all of their own material and rights to everything to do whatever they want but damn did they make a hell of a climb making the kind of music that they do. The kind that we like. It's fucking amazing if this thing is over, especially. I just got my mail and I got my CD and 24 page booklet that was limited to 5000. I see that it's not sold out, but there isn't a lot of us that own it and when I was reading the credits which may even be in the other packages and other editions, which I'm sure they are, I couldn't help but notice that Stef especially but a couple members seem to be saying goodbye. I think it was Abe n Stef. Thanking us for the life we've given them and all the memories just like the song infinite source. I can't help but to speculate. I'm not new. I've even met the band a few times. I got to walk down the street to the venue with Shawn Lopez in Pontiac Michigan to a crosses show and tell him how awesome I think he did on Saturday night wrist, and with the crosses first lp. I feel that I'm in the know and I have a feeling that this is the last studio record and I hope I'm wrong y'all. I think maybe Stef wrote something like that before on another record in the credits and thank yous but this feels different.

Every Album Cycle:
Phase 1: Fans speculation, searching out and finding clues, whining about no news from the band. Balls become blue.
Phase 2: Silence breaks and the singles roll in, the forum goes wild with everyone's opinions/criticisms.
Phase 3: Days before the album's release, it leaks and the forum EXPLODES with new accounts and lurkers who come to just beg for the album leak.
Phase 4: Some reviews get written, some butts get hurt, people argue and post how others are wrong even though their counterpoint makes less sense, etc. etc..
..and then the forum dies... until next album cycle. Rinse and repeat.
Hahaha holy shit, I think it's true

They used to change up setlists a decent amount. They played mostly every song on every album live, up through the touring cycle for Gore.
I was really disappointed with the lack of Ohms song when they toured for that album, but then DDLD in '22 they busted out so many rarities. It was one of my favorite Deftones shows. (Ceremony, Error, 976-evil, Goon Squad, Rapture, Needles and Pins, RX Queen).
Not sure we will ever get a Private Music heavy show at this point. I would love to hear more from PM and Ohms live but I don't think it'll ever happen with either album.
Makes me appreciate all the random songs I've heard live in the past like (L)MIRL, Boys Republic, Geometric Headdress, Street Carp, Teenager, etc)
Last part of your post made me realize I shouldn't bitch. I've heard some rare songs. Can't even breathe, deathblow, THATH (although I'm not sure if you can call this a rarity since it was a tour staple in the WP era)
I remember them opening with THATH once. So great.
I've seen them 51 times so I guess there aren't many surprises left. Always had a personal (selfish) goal of seeing one new song live every time I've seen them. It's happened almost every show aside from the last two.
Goddamn I've seen them 9 times and started to get tired of the setlists lol. So what songs have you NOT heard at this point?

speaking of infinite source, did anyone else notice the inversion in souvenir? the lyrics go from "keep holding me / close and tight" in the former to "me holding / you tightly" in the latter.
Seems to be a lot of holding someone in space on this record
