Abe was influenced by Stuart Copeland of the Police. He said that numerous times in interviews. He also is a big fan of Neil Peart of Rush, so maybe he is an influence too altough his drumming style is way different (more technical than groove) than what Abe does....

As a massive fan of the Smiths, The Cure and Depeche Mode myself, I love hearing those influences creep into the Deftones sound.

There's no metal band out there that has the range of moods and emotions Deftones evoke.

Chino's repped these two a few times for their "futuristic" sounds. I really like them. This song brings back memories to the Diamond Eyes tour.  Blasted this on their speakers before the show.. Good times.

Quite typical for a guitarist, yet unexpected for Stephen Carpenter.. Here is Eddie Van Halen, Steph's favorite guitarist; shreddin' some shit.mofukas.

Besides Van Halen, here is Steph's other favorite guitarists from Meshugga, Fredrik Thorndendal. Some of Steph's riffs have a hint of Fredrik's style ( Finger of Death and Rats! for example)

Just read an older Guitar World interview with Steph and he mentions 65 days of static and Battles as some of his inspirational bands. Haven't really checked out 65 dos before, and I do say they're quite awesome.
