Deftones Bullshit Thread

[Hidalgo]

...

wow, 25 years. i actually became a fan off adrenaline. 16 years old was watching a video channel called "the box" and saw 7 words 2 different times. the 2nd time i recorded it because i loved it. Oct-Nov 1995. that lead me to order adrenaline along with 11 other cds for a penny(columbia house), when i saw deftones adrenaline in the booklet i looked through ordering, i was like hell yea i'll give that one a try for sure. i was thinking if any of the songs are as cool as 7-words then that would be sweet. screaming was shocking to me back then, but in a good way(it was new to me)when all the cds finally got here(last week of dec 1995) i think i played adrenaline first, and "bored" plays, and i was smiling like, i just found a really cool unknown band. and liked the whole album. but my 3 favs for a little while were the predictable bored, 7 words, and engine no.9(nothing wrong with that though, they might still be my 3 favs from the album) later gave the other songs more play(didnt take long) and they became one of my fav bands right away. probably heard the album 400 times or more, lol. by late 97 they were my favorite band. lucky i found the band so early. i'm 41 now and they're still my favorite

happy 25th Adrenaline

Holy shit thats fucking nuts..... so....... I feel like you just told my story almost down to every detail. I got adrenaline from Columbia house as well along with Nirvana, Soundgarden, I think Wu-Tang Clan enter the 36 Chambers etc. It wasn't until around the fur that I fell in love with them though. I got ATF the day after it came out and it was a wrap. Also, what got me to order adrenaline was seeing them on TV but it's so long ago that I can't remember which show...it was probably House of hair or headbanger's ball (REMEMBER THAT SHIT? So fucking RAD) something like that I know that it was late at night that they would play them. Bored and 7 wds i remember seeing then, anyways. Cheers! And a toast to ADRENALINE!!!

awesone. i think i ordered wu tang 36 chambers( don't even listen to rap anymore) RHCP one hot minute, and maybe one other for me along with adrenaline, the rest went to my sister(she orered them, and got in trouble for it cause she didn't have our mom's permission). i was so big into adrenaline that i didn't even rush to get "around the fur", as weird as that sounds. i saw the my own summer video on, and recorded it, and really liked it, but didn't get the album until early june 98, cause adrenaline was getting so much play from me and friends all the time, and being party animals was the priority(and a lot of times i wanted to buy ATF at record stores i didn't have enough money with me, it was always like 18.99$ when i saw it. so it was on my list to buy for sure, but no huge rush.) then after i got it, i became even more diehard, and never missed a first day release from them. until koi no yokan-ohms, cause orders came in the mail slightly late, and no more record stores. i miss just going and easily finding the albums on day 1. ordering them and having them show up 4 days late sucks

I remember hearing MOS on the local radio station at work and creaming my pants. I knew it was Deftones right away so I went to the record store and all they had was Adrenaline. At the time I didn't know what album MOS was on so I skipped through all the songs looking for it but after I realized it wasn't there I just sat back and listened to the entirety of Adrenaline. I had heard some of it before but not actually the whole album. I was blown away. Can't believe that record came out 25 years ago... sheesh.

...

Interesting.... that LP linked u to Deftones. Never got into them myself but thats great for u!

[Draken]

Anyone see the track "[Stef]" on Hybrid Theory's 20th Anniversary Edition? Lol, it's a voice message from our boi...


I looked but did not see it in the tracklisting... am I blind or missing something??

...

[Visionz]

Are they trying to lump themselves up with Deftones? Is it that important of a move to them to put a Steph message in as a track on a special record? Im not being a dick but cmon. Ive always kinda got that feeling that them and other bands try to be like that but Deftones try to keep their distance .... idk man

[LG95]

The Stef clip was out forever ago (a quick google tells me they put it out on their Hybrid Theory remix record in 2002). Really isn't anything to read into.

[Draken]

Oh I didn't know that was on their 2002 album, I was just scrolling through the tracks and was like "Stef"? I forgot about By Mself! Lol, I just looked in my music library and there it is...

I was never that big of a LP fan, I like them don't get me wrong but not that hardcore like I am with Deftones... really not like that with ANY other band tbh. My gfs little sister is way into them but we were always def heads. I respect the band, I think they have some great music.

Still don't see that MOS cover on the 20th anniversary... must be a fancy European edition...

I think I was pretty clear that I wasn't sure it was more of a question and I guess I felt that way because I'm not into Lincoln Park whatsoever. It doesn't make me a cooler than you and I wasn't trying to be cool because that would be kind of weird considering I will never meet any of you and I don't need to impress you. I said I don't know man. Relax. Do you think if we were sitting at a table sitting across from each other you would have reacted like that? I don't think so

By the way I had no idea about Chango being mad at them, and I had no idea he asked Mike Shinoda for his ears. That explains that I don't watch every move everyone does. Especially if it Has to do with a band I don't listen to. And that's cool. I'm sure I like things you don't like but we both like Deftones.

[Visionz]

I will never get them. And I don't think they have anything in common sound wise with Deftones. I guess since I've only heard probably 5% of their work, and that 5% was depressing and immature, that is why I think that? They're just not for me man that's all. 

[Draken]

So I guess the MOS cover is on the DVD portion of the Hybrid Theory super deluxe reissue edition. I didn't see it in the tracklisting of the actual CDs. They streamed the concert footage from the final show on the band's 2002 Projekt Revolution tour in Las Vegas with said MOS cover but it seems you have to buy a ticket here https://watch.linkinpark.com/... or...

you can just watch it on Youtube. It's a killer performance of the song.

i can't say that bands like linking park,papa roach,limp bizkit etc etc are shit nowadays. they aim at teenagers,kids basically, and since i'm not in that age group anymore, i try not to voice my opinion too much when it comes to them.

Probably why i never liked any of it. Ive been an adult their whole careers. I like Deftones bc they are unique and themselves. Compared anyways

@Draken wow thanks for that vid, that was awesome

[Draken]

and the video's unavailable now, lol...


Yo, anyone watch that movie Chino scored called I'm Just Fucking With You? I just watched it on Hulu and it's pretty crazy, it's actually not that bad! There's some synth work he did in there that sounds almost identical to the ending of Pompeji (around 58:00)...
