Deftones Bullshit Thread

[El-Presidente]

Sergio good at singing
but his scream is horrrible

could you be so kind and post a vid pls? havent really heard him yet

[Starz]

You need to structure your posts more man, they look horrible to read

He's got better at screaming, especially for MOS. More of a high pitched scream now than when he first started

here's a random fairly trivial question..

"My Own Summer" is featured on the Matrix soundtrack.......but I've seen the movie, and don't remember hearing any of it at all throughout....so did I miss the scene, did they play just a tinge of it, or what? and it's not in the ending credits. so I figured either a deleted scene or I missed it; anyone know which scene they feature the song in? thanks

[BillyNo.9]

Nah man, wasn't in the movie. A lot of bands have songs featured on soundtracks and shit but do not appear in the actual movie. I think the only soundtrack where everysong on it is used is Queen of the Damned ( lol at the film ). My guess is Mavrick and Warner Bro's had a deal going on or something?

haha yeah. I saw LAC once in the theater, thought it was alright. then not too long ago found out #9 was in a scene, so I re-watched it 'just for that.' second viewing bettered my opinion on the movie, but the #9 scene is pretty good, lol

The most talented drummer is Lars Ulrich.





































































But yes, Abe is really a hell of drummer.

[Deftones-argentina]

I don't think he's underrated, but underappreciated. He is a big reason on why I got into deftones, I still remember the first time I heard Knife prty, felt otherwordly with that way of doing something so intrincate, yet so emotive. God, I fucking love that dude

[deftones86]

Not really. But I was thinking what would happen if either Stef or Chino would have been in that car wreck? To me I dont think the band could go on if either one couldnt do it anymore. If Stef was gone Deftones would become Team Sleep.  And if Chino was gone, well Chinos vocals are a pretty important part of the band, pretty irreplaceable. And Stef would just be making Meshuggah Techno Metal. Thoughts?

[deftones86]

Abe is the drummer and he is amazing.

[Penicks]

chino's the most important part of deftones imo

[Starz]

I hope they release a new album soon so threads like this will stop.

[from_musings]

if chino or steph would quit the band,no matter what reason, I think deftones would stop as a band that same second.they are the two key figures.
when steph said they almost kicked chino out of the band during the making of snw, he said "we wanted to kick him,but that would've been the end to this so..". chino's voice is too important in the deftones sound, and someone else singing like him would go wrong too. if steph should quit,everything would've stop too, i mean his like the founder of the band and the engine when it comes to making the riffs. in theory they could bring in another metal guitarist who could do some chugga chugga riffs that chino could sing over just to maintain the dynamics, but that also would've sound wrong when it's stephen's riffs along with chino's vocals, that mix, that are the most important part of the magic within deftones music i think. just chino singing to anyones heavy guitar isn't enough. i would hate if they continued without any of them

being a drummer myself, I can honestly say listening to Abe has taught me more than anything else. I learned so much by playing along to Deftones songs, not only technically but style-wise as well. especially his hi-hat work is something I've taken to heart. Digital Bath, Passenger and Knife Party are in my opinion the songs where he really shines. can't really think of any other band, except for Tool, where the drumming is such a defining part of the music.

Very well said.......I could not agree more....

True, stef and chino are the pillars of the sound of the band. Also, most of the chino´s pojects are team-sleepish.

Well, anyway i hope nothing happens

[Inkblades]

What is the point of this train of thought, exactly? It's not very constructive. Furthermore, you are doing a great disservice to Chi, not just as a musician but also as A HUMAN LIFE, by posing this hypothetical.
