@@xerotonin6776 For me, after KNY and even that album is arguable 🤣 their two most recent cuts don't make me FEEL anything, it just sounds their most experimental. I really want Eros or just some return to form (Adrenaline-SNW).
Never lost my love for the band. I,m 49, an old school skater and surfer and have loved them since 98. I,m too old to be trendy or cool so i just love the music i love. Same with Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, Nirvana, Pearl jam , Helmet, Rage Against The Machine Pantera and so many bands i love not because they are cool but because i love them..fuck being cool or trendy, love what you love and fuck the rest
That White Pony tour with Incubus and Taproot… The intro of Korea, with the big red “White Pony” flag… I’m getting chills thinking about it! And that was over 20 years ago!
I was 15 when it was released, and and a year later Deftones were like a holy band among alternative fans,, its was a good taste to like them, but they were like already ahead of everyone but people ddint want to let go of rap metal and nu metal, it was only kicking off and Deftones were already leaving towards more serious direction. I sensed it right away as i was very much into art and fashion and electronic music like Aphex and Autechre. The soundscapes , mixing of instruments had so much space and clarity, almost like transcending into the digital realm. Also Chris Cunningham and David Fincher ruled the visual aethtics of the time and WP ATK were giving those dystopian vibes , Ghost In the Shell and Metal gear Solid were cult like novelties moving towards new grounds of style ..I even really liked the new makover of the band into more dark atmospheric and stylish themes. Music felt erotic and not vulgar, like if you understood the atmosphere of Davyd Lynch and Cronenberg. Entrenhcing themes of mystery and sedcution, feeling of etheral ambience of haunting places of private parts of the city. And it really separated with technological aesthetics of different visual mediums like the use of stage light, night vision, distortion, color pallette. Even such small things like metal boxes and cords chaotically placed around the stage was a hint onto something machine like violent and powerful. Almost sci fi like with touch of artistry of futuristic illustartions of heavy metal magazine and liminal spaces of night streets of megapolis. It might not seem on point at first, but all of this combined added to bands identity and many of those symbols, nuances we relive today in the likes of youth culture, fashion branding, social network visuals, modern art and psychological emancipation of sentiments and fetishes among the youth.
Dude, for a below 1k youtuber, this was a great watch. Held my attention the whole time with well researched clips for the band, insightful comments on what this album and it's songs mean to you and great bits of humor as well. The intro caught my attention but the rest made me stay. Once again, I didn't believe my eyes when I exited full screen when the video ended and was expecting at least two more digits after your sub count. Please keep at it!
Damn that TRL top 10 list had some bangers! It also had a few whack ass songs. But Deftones,Korn,Incubus and even Nelly with Country Grammar. Still one of my favorite hip hop albums
Awesome vid as always. Man, I remember buying a VHS tape of shows from Deftonesworld Nuno a long time ago. Back when you had to really dig for band info.
Great content as always, Nocturne. By the way, they start to tour again and their current touring bassist is Fred Sablan. Really sad what happened to Sergio but i guess we will have more Quicksand
saw a clip of genesis on deftones live. i was like damn that's good. and yes it seems Sergio's already getting to work so I'm happy for him even though it's weird he's gone
Not bad. Pretty on point. For the record, no pun intended they fought like cats and dogs. They always had shouting matches, or silent neglect but I think this album really tested the resilience of the band. Being at the spot was not always a pleasant place. The skateboard ramp helped "distractions" helped but the tension was there for sure
Street Carp is still one of my favorite bangers. Was dating a chick that was mad ghetto and wild and that song always reminded me of her style and behavior. Sexy, crazy and fun as fuck.
Favorite band growing up. Only one worthy of my money, time and attention. Adrenaline is still my favorite. White Pony was amazing but not my favorite. Deftones was the weakest for me. Adrenaline. Diamond Eyes. SNW. ATF WP.
Cool. There’s a great divide from band dudes and musicians. Band dudes get their feelings hurt about “parts” , they get defensive bc they are uncomfortable. Musicians are relaxed and can take scrutiny. It can always be better.
nope but the best theory ive heard is that korea sounds like chorea, a disease that involves involuntary tics. white pony aka coke can have that effect on you. plus, helmet has a song called tic that also has the lines carve your niche and work your pitch
Not even close, Around The Fur is their masterpiece, with Adrenaline very close. White Pony is so generic compared to both, with a lot of pop rock cliches and structures, Digital Bath and Change sound like the same song sometimes. No more rapping, no more screaming (except Elite), no more vocal transictions (like in Engine 09 for example, that change a screaming rap to a doubled melodic singing) and the bass lines are forgetteble. Not angry or melancholic as the 2 early albuns, and the lyrics are mediocre, most of their lirycs in this album is about sex or something on this way.
Been saying something like that for quite some time now. White Pony has got some of the highest highs (Feiticeira, Korea, Street Carp) but record as a whole is just too inconsistent. So many parts of it sounding tasteless, generic, cheap even. Deftones record with the most fillers, Diamond Eyes being a close second.

That opening was effing epic. Bruh.
Glad to see Frank get some coverage, he's the secret weapon in this band. Especially live.

Is white pony your favorite Deftones album
Dude you should seriously interview the band one day, you have such a good comprehension of the band’s history😳
honestly im torn between never meet your heroes vs unlocking a new level of information about them lol

One of my favourite metal albums of all time!!! BTW you didn't talk about my favourite song on the album, ''Korea''.
Damn that TRL top 10 list had some bangers! It also had a few whack ass songs. But Deftones,Korn,Incubus and even Nelly with Country Grammar. Still one of my favorite hip hop albums
“My price range, is rover!”
Damn good album! And what a time for music!

Rodleen Getsic’s live performance with Deftones was kinda scary. Her vibe just scares me overall actually after watching her videos 😅
My dude! Always doing amazing videos!! Love this one too! Can't wait to see more videos from you!!!

Extremely underrated channel
The segments feel like the loading screen for cutscenes in video games

@@theodoredavidmooney5703 i always appreciate the encouragement man. helps me to keep going
Please continue brother... Great content!
Good video dude
I heard the sound for the record was inspired by The record you'd prefer the astronaut by a band called Hum

I know what Rx mean but I never thought to pronounce it as prescription🤔
Love this video man. Do you have any links to the interviews/resources you pulled the band's quotes from? interested in doing more reading
deftonesworld.com and some angelfire sites that i couldn't believe still existed
I love you
Rx queen.
23:04 man everyone thought deftones was a ska band, even chino himself said it when they were a new band!
Wanted to punch my phone on the intro
What's that melody playing in the background in the first 5 minutes?
Hum
U left out that change was used on Dbz Cooler’s Revenge
straight chillsssss. less chills but also cool was elite in the lord slug movie
@@NocturneMusic definitely!!
I also say RX queen
i say rx queen
You forgot trap metal
Do you know why korea is called Korea and not white pony?
nope but the best theory ive heard is that korea sounds like chorea, a disease that involves involuntary tics. white pony aka coke can have that effect on you. plus, helmet has a song called tic that also has the lines carve your niche and work your pitch
It’s about a hectic time the band had in that country so I’ve heard

i think what i like about this is that ive never heard such a critical review of WP. i respect it! i disagree but i respect it
But there’s screaming in Korea too?
@@hampsterlover9996 not even close to the same intensity
You not listening to the music properly if you think digital bathand change sound the same
