Knife Prty is truly one of my faves! Rosemary, Entombed, be Quiet and Drive, Passenger, Phantom Bride, the Spell of Mathematics… the list goes on. Deftones is GOATed
Best band ever imo
The Boys Republic
Phantom Bride feat. Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains!
@@GhoulReviews Agreed. Can't wait to see them in Phoenix in April!
@@MusikIsUniversal I'm jealous bro, never had the chance to see them. I live in the UK and they don't tour here very often or at all really haha.
Sex Metal is a perfect description of this band. I have to recommend You've Seen the Butcher by them, it's got that sexy/cool vibe y'all are talking about. Thanks for the great videos!
it really is lol... been a fan since mid 90s and Ive never heard that ..its perfect
I have too many favorite songs by Deftones, but this is always my to go to, very underrated.
A reaction to Rosemary and Digital Bath would be GOLD
The Boys Republic
Deftones isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. But the uniqueness is underrated and truly one of my favorites. Growing up there weren’t many Hispanics making music like this and it was my gravity. Hey Imma 90s boi
Ponder this: this album is 21 years old. When this came out, minds were effing blown. There was nothing like this before. These beats, chords, vocals were unheard of. Hard AF. At the time, this was like a portal into another dimension.
lets be honest.... is there anything like this today?
Growing up a metal fan in the 90s, it seemed like The Deftones were the opening act for every band I went to see. I probably saw them 20 times.
R.I.P Chi Cheng. Incredible bass player. Loved how he added completely different melodies a lot instead of just following along to the guitar lines like soo many rock bass players do.
My Own Summer was the song that really got them on the map. The pit would EXPLODE when they played that song.
I loved deftones as a kid but never appreciated they’re complexity until my musical taste matured. Defiantly ahead of they’re time…
This
same here. my brothers would make me listen all the time when i was younger and i enjoyed them then but i didn’t truly appreciate them until now
It's the drums. Abe has a hip hop vibe to him. The kick, the snare, the ghost notes, off beat. He is the man and he blends well with Stephen Carpenter the guitarist.
Totally agree. They definitely leave room in the pocket for him to throw those extra beats in, and the way he plays off that high hat is just amazing.
@@avidspider definitely. I think the reviewer didn't realize those tempo changes were really not from Step but in fact Abe. Even though he said the drums were "meh". Abe's drums alone in this song, especially the ending, change the pace of this song.
Deftones are from Sacramento, & coming from the Bay Area & growing up in that music scene, it was a huge melting pot of rap, metal, oldies, electronic, trip hop was big, Tricky was big...they were all skaters, stoners, baggy Dickies...they had major swag & flavor
Your face after that breakdown was perfect 🤣
White pony is my favorite album by them personally, every track is a banger!
Deftones has always done what they want to do. Their vibe is extremely unique. Each person plays however they want to play, and they put it together. And I like it. Instead of deciding on what sound they wanted to make, they decided to each play their own way and smash it together. As you got through Deftones growth, they try everything out. They have given themselves no rules on what sound they will make, and it is amazing.
I was wondering how you all would react when it got to the vocal bridge. It's so haunting and soul piercing. It gives chills.
It’s amazing you pointed out the slide in the bass much props to you both
Sir with the beanie: your musical soul is so tuned-in; it's an absolute joy to watch. Keep on spiraling 🤟🏻
I am 42, loved Deftones since early 90s. Sometimes i go years without listening to much of their stuff, then i listen and i am blown away all over again. Like Bach, Mozart or Tool.....it is fundamentally different from the background. Great review!
we are the same age bro
So glad you enjoyed this track on a surface and deeper level. Welcome to the family.
Seeing your reaction to this put a huge smile on my face. One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands. The song is so intense.
Rodleen Getsic was the woman doing the screaming and my mom works with her husband, she had been doing recording studio work for a film she was in at the time I think, and they heard her and asked for her to be on the song
I completely felt it when JB said the disconnect with today's music and wishing you got exposed to this music at an earlier age, I'm 37 and only been listening to rock for a decade. But it's definitely overtaken any other genre, especially Tool for me... deftones-Hole in the Earth features more of the cool raging especially with drums. Phantom Bride, Digital bath, and Beauty School are good listens too.
Tool is amazing. Welcome. And digital bath is deftones sex music.
Phantom Bride is definitely underrated. Love those songs too, such a great band.
@@avidspider yeah I discovered Phantom B. late myself and immediately made it a favorite. It's like a hidden gem. No one talks about it
It’s really cool to see you hear this stuff for the first time, and to see you appreciate it so much!
Listening to music ive never heard before with you guys is a lotta fun. Honestly more fun than watching a video on a song I know well.
Knife Party, it always hits different. Love it!
Deftones first three albums was my youth and I built a big part of my identity upon those records. Fabulous stuff to reflect my emotional self still.
A big part of me feels things like this.
Love this song and love your reaction, I'm telling you... Deftones' White Pony album is one of the best albums ever. Fun fact: the woman who sang vocals during the bridge is Rodleen Getsic and the story goes that she was just randomly at the studio when this was getting recorded and she just walked in and dropped that vocal performance for this song. No planning or anything, it just magically happened! You should definitely check out the Deftones' cover of Sade's "No Ordinary Love".
Lovin the reactions, keep 'em coming!
You guys are amazing and so much fun to listen to. Deep musically, but also love the Spiderman and Tony Hawk mentions! Keep reacting and Happy Holidays!!
His reaction when Chino sings, "come in." Total awakening. Seeing the world with new eyes.
Deftones drum tone always stands out to me as really good.
This is one of my favorite tracks!!! Can't wait to see your reaction!
I love your guys' format. Quickly becoming my favorite reaction channel; up there with Lost in Vegas.
Love your reaction, keep digging!!
The swing, the chords, the vocals, the bass… it’s jazzy it’s groovy and it’s metal asf. Some of the best music I’ve ever heard and I’m discovering them at 22 😡
Deftones featuring MAYNARD JAMES KEENAN. "PASSENGERS" ✌
LOVE this reaction, fellas! Please more Deftones. Much love from Alaska!
Best channel, not only the playlist, but the insight. Cheers dudes looking forward to uploads. Deftones my favorite band.
And yes that bass slide is sick af…RIP Chi
Deftones is truly in a league of their own when it comes to style. I can’t compare them to anyone and I love how bold it was of them to just burst forth in their own lane and just do their shit. And for them to STILL be putting out completely awesome albums, through the decades, through gettin older, through losing Chi, etc. They’re just singularly Deftones.
This is my most favorite song by Deftones. Thank you.
You might not have appreciated it as much as you do now. You're coming across this "new music" precisely when you need to. It's perfectly imperfect.
Hell yeah, I'm on a Deftones roll!!....thanks for these awesome videos guys 🤘🔥🔥🔥
One thing I've loved for the longest time is introducing people to these songs and seeing their reaction to them (usually end of a night after drinks and some smoke). Until recently they didn't get much air Play (still don't really) but if people even knew who they were, it was only a song or two and they had no idea about the music that these guys have out or were capable of. Their music gets better the nore you listen to it, there's so much going on there's always something new to pick up on. Been enjoying seeing you discover these guys.
Did you know that deftones is one of the sound track used in Dave Mirra bmx freestyle game in ps1, and it is the be quite and drive track and it is perfect.
Hit like before I watched since it was Deftones! Lol @ sex metal, that’s perfect! Yes you did miss a lot of music, but the best part is you get to experience it now, with us. Another great reaction! I say you throw down a few Korn songs to pay homage. Make Me Bad is a good one. And MORE DEFTONES! Watching from Tampa, Florida. Happy Saturday!
I realy like this dude. He's so refreshing, with a great attitude, same as his bro. I don't even do reaction videos but to be honest, both of these boys know metal... they are very well educated on metal. Love these guys. I just subbed also
One of my favorite songs and albums as a teenager. Cool to see you hear it for the first time!
Love seeing new people appreciate music I was listening to in 2000. Deftones have always been a personal fave
I feel rhe exact same way about r&b/hip hop these days, ive always loved deftones/system of a down/etc but lately ive connected with that kind of music so much more. they always keep it exciting and fresh
gold reaction man, your soul came out
I remember being 16 living in a small rural town in country Australia and travelling to the city so I could get my hands on this album. 3 hours on a train. I’m 34 now and still love this album. It’s just pure gold.
Great song! Another criminally underrated band: KYUSS. You (and many of your followers, I'm sure) have been missing out. Look forward to it.
Suave is a good description. I love how you describe what you feel from the music because that’s how I operate as well.
Nice reaction. I want to see more of you guys. I really like deftones. U need to hear more of deftones
Subscribed! Please do more Deftones!! Rosemary, Ceremony and Kimdracula. Cheers from the US and a lifelong Deftones fan.
This was definitely one of your better reactions. JB cracked a smile and everything, good job!
😊
You guys are awesome
Always considered them the hippest of all metal bands. Probably the best introduction to the genre there is to someone from an R&B background. Enjoying your guys journey into aggressive heavy music.
White Pony is one of the best albums ever, and can we please give love to Abe on drums because he was going off on this track.
love the vids brother, yall the dynamic duo frfr -react to romantic dreams!-
I really enjoy your reaction videos, there's something different about them. Not only the fact that you know what you're talking about, but your angle too. Refreshing and interesting. Please review more Deftones or any other good music ! Greetings from France.
Appreciate that Mephren, yea we're definitely going to do more Deftones, no doubt
Deftones are amazing. Really loved checking out your reactions.
Thank you Stacy
The truly Primal elements of life and survival in a song. I knew you would love this one. The aggressive knife fight as every person are each impaled into submission ... and start fighting for their lives. $#it comes @ U fast.
So happy to see you guys listen to this! Knife prty is one of my absolute favorite Deftones songs. It never fails to give me goosebumps.
Edit: Also, Beware is an under appreciated song of theirs that has a similarly eerie sensuality to it that I think you’d like!
“Allow me the latitude of completion.” That is a smooth command. I’m taking that one.
i absolutely love how much you guys absolutely love the deftones.
onea side note, in regards to their "riffiness": you've started off after they developed what some like to call their "sextones" sound. Their first two albums "adrenaline" and "around the fur" are significantly more riff heavy and definitely worth diving into - if not only to see where they started and better appreciate what they became
I love your action man is so pure
Love the bass during the female vocal section
The screaming at the end is amazing!
Growth never stops, bro. Just cause ya didn't get it young, don't mean you can't get it and take inspiration now. You get it now. You learned, you grew.
Honestly, I was the same way with Rap for the longest - I didn't get the appeal. THEN I heard Bone Thug, THEN I heard Busta Rhymes, Missy Elliot - I feel I hit the crescendo with Old Dirty Bastard when it comes to creativity. See, before them, it was people reading poetry to a beat, and I felt literally anyone could do that... But these guys, the masters, they don't just run /with/ the beat, it feels like they're manipulating the beat with their lyrics, while showing an understanding of music artistry.
There's nothing wrong with ignorance - we've all been ignorant to something - as long as we grow. So... grow, and free yourself to life's pleasures. Give all those iffy things a chance.
You guys are definitely a wacky odd pair. I love it!
I've been listening to the Deftones since 1996 kids and I listen to them more now. You don't have a lot of Nu metal without their influence. They literally started rock rap while skating a half pipe. I've seen them live seven times and I never left a show unhappy. I'm a hard-core fan that knows every song inside and out. I have to say you guys nailed on the reaction. Thx it's super entertaining
I'm biased because Deftones are one of my all time favourite bands - but I can't wait for you guys to listen to more of their stuff - they never disappoint and have some really cool shifts in style here and there =)
Quick story...I was at a festival watching the Main stage acts at an amphitheater off to the side.... and the Deftones (very early in their career) were playing on one of the side stage grass areas by all the food and beer vendors ...and their bass player was shaking the seats in the main amphitheater ....pretty awesome
the slidey bass you loved so much was because chi (rip) played it on a fretless.
So Good!, Thanks!
Deftones has been a part of every Era of my life. Being the weird 10yr old who listened to Deftones and Korn instead of nysync, taking mdma and sitting in the dark listening to them while trying to deal with my bipolar disorder, and now it's my background to my daily life.
I was 17 when this came out. Sounds even better today
i already like this guy he is feeling deftones the way i feel for almost 20 years
03:56 » what a funny coincidence you say that and their beautiful cd cover (2003) shows what you mean with that skull over the roses (I think you've already heard 'Minerva' which is my favorite from that album).
Love the reactions.
I think you’d love the drums in this rarely reacted to song,
Scars by Rush
I'm surprised you didn't bring up Abe Cunningham's ghost notes. Ghost notes are an anomaly in rock and Abe is one of a small handful that use them and use them tastefully. Chi's bass brings a fluidity to the busy drumming of Abe and locks it all down in a gracefully structured song. I was blessed to see the Deftones five times during their run promoting White Pony (one of them was capped at 200 people because it was the first night in a small run of club shows they did) and "Knife Prty" is easily my favourite track of theirs.
You gotta hear this numerous times, it's almost alien- like.. and that's what I fkn like 🤘
Just found this after a Deftones sesh "This is suave" ❤
knew you'd love this one. funny that he forgot about the female vocals, thats the part i was waiting for your reaction to more than anything lol
Gotta listen to Be quite and drive, My own Summer, Rickets, Needles and Pins, Battle Axe…. Soooo many good deftones songs 🤘🏻
I still go and see Korn live but yeah, I don't have the same love for their newer music. I try but I just can't. I'll return to their albums and see if with fresh ears I can enjoy it more and maybe fall in love with more songs.
But their work even up until Korn III was amazing. They lost a couple members along the way and experimented but man did it create some truly fresh music they never went back to. Or barely. Like with a song or 2. After hearing their last few albums, I actually appreciate See You On The Other Side and Untitled a lot more.
Ha, Great to watch, your reaction actually brought me back to hearing this for the first time, what a song. Just put it into my current play list, Thank you! Anything from the album 'White Pony' All great, has that subtler sexy sound, but anything from Around the fur, will pack a punch, 'My Own Summer', 'Be Quiet And Drive' . And then there is 'System of a down' (",)
Rodleen Getsic is the female vocalist. There's some pitch altering but that's her. Amazing.
Fun Fact: there's a band named after this song that does pretty awesome techno. Great to see you guys continue on the journey through Deftones. Keep going.
did they really get their name from this song?? that’s actually pretty cool lol
@@tendarkshadows Yeah! Knife Party was actually a side project of some of the guys from Pendulum, and after Pendulum split, Knife Party became their main priority.
u should do hexagram its so expiremental with chinos screams mixed with the euphoric guitars its like ecstasy the way chino rides with the music in the song. one of my fav from them for sure
Lmao I fuck with you guys. I can connect with both yall and see where you're coming from with the things you say. Deftones are a time machine to me. When I hear any song from White Pony, it takes me back to 7th grade INSTANTLY. They're unlike any other band
Knife Prty is a total mindfuck of a track, in the best way possible...
I wish i could hear this for the first time once again.
You guys should check out Deftones Passenger. Maynard James Kennan from Tool is on there. You need to listen to his other bands, A Perfect Circle and Pusifer. Tool and Deftones both were 2 huge influential bands and lots of bands give them credit. 2 other bands Jane's Addiction and Red Hot Chili Peppers are also hugely influential.
As a drummer you’ll want to check out thrir track “you’ve seen the butcher” - craziest, catchiest drum led track next to “digital bath”
Lol, yep. That was my exact reaction to Deftones when I was younger too: “Where’s the riffs?”
Then as I got older, I was all, “Now I get it.”
Oh nice choice 👌🏽 Deftones are always welcome
One thing I've always appreciated about Deftones composition style is that they allow space in their songs. Most bands around this time filled every gap with something, a riff a bend, an 808 drop, just something to fill the space. But Deftones allowed the song to breathe and it's that emptiness that heightens their music.
They definitely broke the mold of the standard verse chorus verse chorus guitar solo chorus end. I've always liked how they're songs never do that.
Unique sound with masterful musicians. No guitar solo's. Amazing lyrics and Chino's voice. Just a brilliant band who have only gotten better. I agree that You've Seen the Butcher would be a good pick if you like this vibe.
Awesome reaction! Bros...this song is 21 years old and it still sounds FRESH. I still feel like most of the Deftone's music sound fresh. I think it ties in to what you said about the disconnect with R&B and Hip Hop. A lot of R&B and Hip Hop (and TBH most music) just doesn't age well. I am not a music guru like you two, but maybe it is because there isn't much depth to the instrumentation or the lyrics are too specific or niche and listeners just don't relate to it years later?
I was laughing pretty hard at the KORN-ish-ery =)
Great song. I think the descending slide sound you're hearing is sctually a subtle synth. The actual bass guitar I think is pretty straightforward.
I'm not really a drummer like jb, I'm technically a bassist, but I love the way he was vibing to them drums when the song kicked in 🤘🤘🤘
Deftones - digital bath
Deftones - Rosemary
Deftones - beauty school
Deftones - sextape
Envoy your journey!
The new album is a masterpiece for me. and been listening to them for 15 or so. So many songs... but the majority have been mentioned already
