Relax, they just need some time to decide which former bassist of will haven they're gonna pick

I just looked through their Reddit page. What a hot mess. Fuck me.

People really need to evaluate their relationship with music and bands when they're demanding statements about a situation that's none of their business, taking sides on little information and getting emotional because someone left a band.

Genuinely laughable there are people saying they don't feel as able to listen to the band right now. It's pathetic.

Deftones fans are really upset that the band fired the greedy stand-in bassist. They're even angrier than lost prophet fans were when they found out that their singer raped babies

yeaa i don't get it, i'm not upset. honestly, he filled in nicely, but like you said, he wasn't there the first 5 albums, from rags to riches, and the first 3 went platinum, and s/t went gold. the height of their popularity. really, Chino is the only none replaceable one (he needs to, and probably does have a contract where he gets the highest % of their income, cause it's his show. he's really unique, & by far the most crucial member). really, Frank is lucky he's official, cause someone like Crook could replace him in a second (but i guess since he  appeared on the first 2 albums as a guest, he kinda earned it)

i sometimes think it would be really interesting to hear a deftones album with Stephen replaced with someone crazy skilled, writing really complex riffs and leads. i wouldn't be opposed

Last night's episode of Atlanta had Earn randomly finding and keeping a Deftones shirt. Seems Donald Glover is a fan.

Abe's drumming on their cover of Wax and Wane grooves so hard.

Of Course imo, to each their own. It depends on my mood though

GlimmeringMaggit

I was agreeing with you. Digital Bath is one of the great drum intros of all time.

Imo... So just to be clear to everyone, to each their own.

There's currently an instrumental of Tropics on that list. I used to have a recording of Mission Sunset's instrumental. Did anybody else record it?
