Around the Fur: Chino's Favorite
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 вер 2021
- If Saturday Night Wrist and self-titled found the band in dire straits and Adrenaline found them too fresh-faced and nervous, Around the Fur struck the balance between the intrigue of what the band had perfected and what they could achieve.
We'll explore the history behind the album and why Chino Moreno cites this album as his favorite.

Thanks for the credit for using footage from the Deftones ATF EPK I directed. Seriously though, it was pretty cool to see stuff I did back in 1997 being used in videos that fans are now making about Deftones as they have been able to transcend & related to each new generation of kids when they pick the music they enjoy as they grow into adults. Deftones latest release "Ohms" is probably some of the best written material from start to finish the guys have ever released. They are nominated for 3 Grammy's during this weekends award show. Respect, Russ Busby
dude i hope you know the fanbase appreciates you and your work. you're a legend!
@@NocturneMusic I might release a song or two from the infamous Viper Room show I shot on Sept 28 1997. I just found the original video tape & re-digitized it yesterday. If I can only find my footage I shot at the Santa Barbara show when Snot opened up for them.... The video of when chino flips forward into the crowd & the view is from like the soundboard & all you can see is Chino's shoes/feet & legs.... that shot is from the Santa Barbara show.
@@poisonouspicturesplusrussbusby hell yeah! anything you got id wanna see
Thank you more
Dai is "to give" in Italian as well. I always thought Dai the Flu meant "you make me sick", "you give me the flu". It's probably my second favorite on ATF. Lotion is my favorite.
It means "to give" in Russian also
It’s funny you ask 10 different people they’ll list 10 different songs as their favorite from ATF. It just speaks to how great the album is
@@cpnstbn1266 fr man and I find myself changing my pick for favorite song all the time lol every track is just that good
Dude.... Mascara us so beautifully dark
I loved Adrenaline, and remember awaiting this album. I was not disappointed. It's still one of my favorites. I did vocals for numerous bands, and 'My Own Summer' is the only cover of any band I ever played live. I saw them twice on this tour. The first show was all of their heavier songs, and the second they played all of their more chill songs to that date. Incredible shows.
I’ll never forget the day I discovered this album. It was 1999 and I was at a skate park and my friend had this album in a CD player and as soon as I heard the two note drum intro from Abe on My Own Summer followed by the unforgettable riff that still slaps so hard to this day I was immediately hooked. All these years later you can take completely different sounding songs like the heaviness of My Own Summer, Korea, Rickets, Headup & Bloody Cape & the dream-like beauty of Digital Bath, Hole In The Earth, Beware & Cherry Waves and you can still tell it’s the Deftones. A completely unique sounding band that was totally different and more interesting sounding than anyone else in the nu-metal scene back in the day…I never thought they were nu-metal anyway, they were so much more than that
My friends introduced me to the music of Deftones in 95 when I was first getting into rock. They would play Bored in the car and I didn't like or understand it. Like you said about Mascara, I thought Chino sounded whiny. About two years later, I was 15 and we visited a friend. We stayed up all night smoking pot in his room and he played the Around The Fur album from beginning to end over and over and over nonstop. By the end of the night I was convinced they were an amazing band. Then after White Pony they became by far my favorite musical act of all time and still are to this day all these years later.
This is a quality documentary about an important album in the bands catalog. Well done.
glad you enjoyed it 😃
I personally love the cover, it's trashy but timeless and it's very powerful and candid. I get how it could be seen as something negative or intrusive but... Thats fine? It works really well and is not only inviting but kinda repulsive in how intense it sort of is. I love it, I think it's one of the best album covers ever in service of it's music inside. If the cover was boring or something else, the music would still be good but overall the package with all of it together is entirely human and brutally emotional.
The cover is kinda trashy now, but I was 16 when ATF came out. It literally looks like the end of any of our friday nights back then, hitting a hot tub at an apartment complex that no one lived at.
@@craigdunlap5654 damn that sounds so cool lmao im 16 right now and wish i was making memories like that
@@craigdunlap5654it’s not trashy now, your just sensitive
I can never pick my absolute favorite Deftones album, it always shifts between ATF and White Pony. When i finally saw them live for the first time this year, the songs that got me most pumped up were from ATF and as they surprised me playing the title track, i lost it. I have probably never headbanged harder in my life.
im a huge deftones fan myself and i gotta say i just ADORE your content, and your vocabulary! the descriptors you used for around the fur and it's story are great, for lack of a better word! i love hearing about deftones lore and even if ive read my fair share of interviews, fan stories and so on, i still learn something new about the band in your videos!! youre a very underrated channel in my opinion, and i love the topics you make videos on.
i live for comments like yours. makes me feel like im doing something right! thanks for the love!
@@NocturneMusic dude you most definitely are :-) keep it up!!
White Pony is the album I would take with me into the abyss. R.I.P. Dana.
Wow, what an intriguing mini doc. I was absolutely hooked from the first 20 seconds till the end. You just gained a sub, looking forward for more Deftones content!
thanks for the love!
Said it before and saying it again: I'm always here for your Deftones content. Please tell me you're eventually going to do profiles of their entire back-catalogue?
yeah man i'll eventually get to them all. thanks for the support!
well done video, you pointed out a few things on the timeline to making the record that while I was aware of them, never thought about them as integral events to the finished product. While "White Pony" was their height (at least in terms of success), this was probably them at their most confident and assured.
So wild that Mr Moreno's fave deftones songs are mine too. Also I always loved that he is a huge depeche mode and smiths fan it rocks
I have listened to Deftones since I was 12 years old, always loved them. Especially Around The Fur.. I thought I was weird for being such a fanboy, but seeing all the comments here, and the video of course, I find it f*cking awesome that so many share my enthusiasm! \m/
Very cool video. Thankyou
Love the content and history coverage keep it up man it's good shit
Amazing video!
Dude! This is great!
Thanks for the videos on Deftones man, I’ve learnt so much here even after being a massive fan for many years. Subscribed!
Excellent video, man! Loved your break down of each track and your summation on why it's Chino's favorite record.
amazing video
Definitely my favourite, White Pony is a close second.
Great job on this Documentary! Huge respect! This band is the only music that forms a connection to my inner being like a movie that i love!!
Can't really put into words on how big of a fan I've been since Adrenaline was brand new.This is a great mini-doc👍 Certainly some very interesting things here that I didn't know
Great video man. I was concerned in the beginning, but you have my confidence in your reporting, and I do like your facts also mixing with your own opinion! Love me some Deftones
so glad this documentary exists
Fantastic write up! You discover information about their work that I've never even considered. You gotta hit the whole catelogue, man.
man i gotta do gore don't i? lol it's an honor tho so i'll get to them all soon
Great documentary bro. Your channel just popped up in my feed. I absolutely subbed! Keep up the great work!
Welcome aboard!
Perfect video! My fav concert of all-time will be when Deftones played Around the Fur front to back in Quebec ❤
7 Words, Rocket Skates or Swerve City would be the perfect songs for a bar fight
Honorable mentions: You’ve seen the butcher and headup
Dude, why doesn't this video has a lot of views? I absolutely loved your view of the album and your opinions. This is one of the greatest videos i've seen in months. Hope you get the recognition you deserve.
thanks man
Maaaan! I love your Deftones videos so much. Just thank you for your work, I appreciate you so much as a fan :)
My pleasure!
Great video, this album is fcking otherworldly
Well, all their albums feel like that, but this one especially
It's a perfectly crafted atmosphere that manages to be alienating, comforting, fun, and scary all at once
I always need to be in a certain mood before I listen to this because it really does feel like a movie almost, in the way it consumes everything around you while you are engaging with it
The cover art does a great job of portraying the atmosphere of the album. And of course, the My Own Summer video is also a stellar visual, but I'm glad they chose that photo specifically even if it isn't the most appealing to the eyes
Dude! You finally made THIS video!!!
Amazing work! A big fan from Argentina! Keep it up.
hey i remember you from our reddit convo! thanks for the love man
@@NocturneMusic yes it's me!
Cool that you remember me, I was stoked to see this video!
Amazing work and all the data and insights are great.
Keep it up man!
My favorite album aswell
New sub here… been binging on your content keep up the great work! Looking forward to a documentary about Deftones latest album Ohms.
An absolute masterpiece, and one of their finest works… up there with consensus all time favorites like White Pony, Around the Fur, and Diamond Eyes IMO
The timing of the album’s release with the pandemic, the brilliance Frank Delgado brought to the album, and Sergio’s subsequent, and shocking departure from the band.. plenty of Deftones lore to be covered which I hope to see soon🤞🏼
you just gave me the perfect outline!
@@NocturneMusic awesome can’t wait! Cheers 😎
ATF is one of my favorites too!
Fantastic job man, I love these videos. Keep it up! Every time I think I know everything about this group, I'm surprised by something new. Also for anyone interested in Chino's/Deftones' affinity for Weezer, check out the song "Can't Even Breathe", the influence is apparent right from the start and one of the greatest lesser-known Deftones tracks imo
you're right on the money about can't even breathe
Great Band
this sht changed my whole outlook on music. I was 16 and I was like wtf and brought it to my friends houses and let them hear and yea
So well done..Man o man 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏆 thank you
"AROUND THE FUR" IS DEFINITELY A MASTERPIECE.. AS A FAN FOR 25YRS.. THIS IS MY FAVORITE
Do you see around the fur as a nu metal album
@@JohnWayne-vf5bs that's a good question.. you hear RICKETS wich sounds like adrenaline type.. then listen to LHABIA you here them start to change and separate themselves from everyone.. now on the same album listen to DAI THE FLU. different from anything In my opinion.. after this album I can't compare them to a single nu metal band..BUT I guess it depends on the fan. I believe everyone has there opinion. 🤟
@@o1o236 by the way do you think that evanescence were nu metal
@@JohnWayne-vf5bs lol I only remember one song from them lol I guess .....no comment
@@o1o236 yeah that the song bring me to life ft Paul McCoy
strawberry milkshakes are the best! and excited for part 2 plus possibly a video focused on white pony
i really should just make a playlist. white pony vid is on the channel
Time and time again, I change my mind on what my top 3 deftones albums are but ATF is always there in my eyes. So good to play along to on guitar and a timeless bunch of tracks and awesome mix. Cheers for these!
first song i learned to play was my own summer. second was be quiet and drive.
@@NocturneMusic Yep!! Same. Thanks for the videos!
Mascara is a masterpiece man. Just behind My Own Summer, Be Quiet & Drive Far Away in quality, top 5 song they’ve ever made. Sexy and dark. Sounds like it should be on White Pony
ATF is my favorite Deftones album. It's absolutely perfect.
Around the Fur is a masterpiece (wrote that before he said it). It's just not their best record, but it's one of the best records ever.
You should have a lot more subscribers
Backing music at the beginning section of the video is fire. Plz share
wish i could man. i lost the file and i dont remember the name
Everytime you say the word schedule like that a baby puppy dies in heaven.
😅
I was at the concert that resulted in the deftones type o conflict. I remember Chino saying if they want to be Jerks let's show them what we can do. This was after their music was turned off mid song. Everyone rushed the stage and as the curtains were closing there were concert goers hanging off of them and security was throwing people off stage. I looked at my buddy and said let's get out of here. This things over.
What’s the background music? Sounds familiar
Deftones lore
...And what do I get?...
ADRENALINE, when?
They haven’t made an album that good since. If it’s his favorite he should go back and take a good long listen and get back to that
They just changed genres. And as much as I personally prefer nu metal to alternative metal, I can understand why he wouldn't want to go back. The world is different now, and the context their music exists in is too different from how it was back then. Even bands like Korn who are still doing straight up nu metal have a clearly different tone to them nowadays.
That first wave of nu metal, for better or worse, was a product of its time. Luckily there is a new wave out now though, but of course nothing really captures the spirit of early Deftones specifically
@@Sergio-nb4hj yea sadly you’re right. New wave of music sucks. Period! I don’t like anything they’ve put out since white pony or korns untouchables. And I don’t even want to get started on hearing anything from any new bands shit is GOD AWFUL!
@@fightostinfight New wave of nu metal does have some cool stuff like Tallah and Omerta but it's not as accessible as 90s and 00s nu. Lots of metalcore influence now, for better or worse
WinAMP
i just showed my age didnt i lol
@@NocturneMusic I'm close to your age I think from what I can tell (36) and still use it too! MilkDrop for the win! Hehe!
Why did Chino and Abe fall out? Abe always seems really chill
That's absolute BULLSHIT. I guarantee that is not Chino Moreno favorite album they ever did! This album was far from the style that Chino even wanted to continue on with, which is a big reason why their sound is no longer on that level of hardcore genre style. With that being said however.....it is certainly one of my favorites, and still to this day is prob an album I still love to listen to on occasion. It was huge in the 90s for anyone who listened to Metal
What on Earth are you talkin about? Chino has repeatedly stated in interviews that this is his favorite.
@black spring There's no way, I don't believe that for a second! I know for a fact he hates the song BACK to SCHOOL. The only reason they originally did that song was due to the pressure from their record company and because they were under contract
@@brandonguindon7455 You can look it up bro, you're using a device connected to the internet. Google exists.
He didn't want to put nu metal elements into White Pony, yeah, but that's because it was intended to depart from that sound. It's just artistic vision. If I make a art rock album, I'm not going to add disco basslines to make it dancier... y'know? He didn't want to rap. He didn't want that to be their direction going forward, he wanted to explore their other influences instead. He also just wasn't as angry anymore. More depressive, but not angrier...
@@Sergio-nb4hj WOW aren't you clever bud. I think you just contradicted yourself......Chino didn't want to keep being represented as "Nu Metal" therefore he hated Back to School but not the entire album.....LOOK IT UP bud. GOOGLE is your friend
I cant listen to these pinheads drone on and on about their dramatic personal journey in finding themselves and where are all the good men?
Dont worry about where they are, we'll inform you on a need to know basis. Ridiculous 304s.
