Deftones - Ohms (Album Reaction)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 вер 2020
- For years I've just shrugged off this band and thought they weren't to my taste but with everything that's been happening this year I thought I'd give them another listen.
Here is a metalhead that never "got" Deftones giving an honest reaction to their latest album Ohms.
says the guy who resembles stef carpenter.
What are the chances! 🙈 My brother from another mother 🤣
Honest reaction. Huge Deftones fan here so this made me smile
36 minutes in and you finally figured out what deftones is. Thanks for the honest reaction, huge deftones fan, its good to hear other peoples opinions on a band that i feel like can do no wrong.
that's absolutely hilarious!
Keep listening. This album blends a lot from their previous work
Error and mathematics will grow on you I really like those ones you should definitely react to more of them
They actually grew off me personally, whereas some other tracks like Headless grew on my quite a bit. Error and Mathematics are my least faves by a decent way.
@@jonnykhatru headless is my favourite on the album
@@deftoner9763 Same here about Headless and also Ceremony and This Link Is Dead
You have to just submit to Deftones. Let the atmosphere wash over you and ride the vibe. I predict that you're going to be a Deftones fan in no time. Check out Diamond Eyes next if you haven't already. Appreciate the honest first reaction. Subbed and liked.
Thank you! I'm going to go through every album in order, hope you like it. 🤘
Jerry Atric Appreciate the reply. I can’t wait to see what you think about their other albums. 🤘🤘
Radiant City - that riff sounds like a confused motorcycle engine tuning itself.... it grows on you, I love it!
Great reaction- I liked listening to your observations! I love the honesty. I've been a fan of theirs since I was about 9 in 1998 and now I'm 32 (also got into TOOL in 2000) They have pretty much been the soundtrack to my life, so I can understand how at first listen, it can be off-putting, but thats what I loved about them; The dissonant guitars, groovy baselines, hip-hop like drumming, the unique cat-like screaming, the soothing vocals. Deftones is an amalgamation of different genres and influences. They have metal, hardcore, alternative, shoegaze/metalgaze , trip hop, post-rock moments in all their albums with their newest album showcasing all of them!
I love the fact that you want to check out their past albums because you can really see how each album they have progressed and changed, but also kept similar bits. I would say start with "Around the Fur"(2nd album) to get a feel of their more energetic/chaotic moments. Its at this album where they fused the blend of post-hardcore and metal with some new melodic styles that they didn't have during their first album. Then jump into White Pony (3rd album) because thats where they really made their mark. They said, we don't want to sound like anyone, but ourselves. White Pony is the perfect nighttime driving album. And then if you're up to it, then listen to, IMHO, their best album- "Deftones" (4th album). This album is when their guitarist, Stef, stepped up the heaviness and djent influences while Chino's song writing was going way more shoegaze. It's a very heavy and dark album that, to me, defines *the* deftones sound. These 3 albums are the key to understand the band and their sound.
So yeah, sorry for the long comment, but I always love when people start to "get" it (just like when people get TOOL).
Self titled is my favorite as well
Amazing post, I'm going to check out all of their albums and I hope you join me for the ride 🤘
I dig your reactions man. Thanks! 🖤
It was fun seeing you getting into it more & more along the way! I'm sure you will end up liking the couple of songs you couldn't get into. I'll suggest that next time you want to listen to the album, start with these two right away.
So true, big Deftones fan here who gave the album a listen the day it dropped and nothing really stuck. Tried again a couple days later and BOOM. So good.
You are correct, on repeat listens those songs have grown on me and now one of them is actually a favourite 👍
I highly recommend coming back to this once you go thru all their albums :D
The thing about Deftones is most of their albums require multiple listens to finally get into. Imo the only exception is diamond eyes, that album just clicks instantly because it's a lot easier to listen to than their other albums
You should also listen to Koi No Yokan, probably my favorite album of theirs!
I'll be reacting to all of their albums, thank you for watching 🤘
@@MetalManny Same it's def my fav post White Pony album it just flows perfect
Love love love Deftones! What a great reaction. My favorite album is the Self Titled :)
Great reaction, good opinions. I've been a Deftones fan for ages, but it took a little while for them to click. Unique band for sure. You kind of remind me of Peter Steele, haha.
I can honestly say I have never been compared to Peter Steele before but I like it
I get it bro, when I first heard spell of mathematics I thought its alright. But its really grown on me and I basically listen to this album everyday. Good review tho👍
Fav band in the world.
All the best deftones songs are album songs. I rarely listen to any singles really. Same for tool. If you are a tool fan you should really check out deftones album songs! I'll tune in if you check out previous albums for sure whether its a full video like this or 1 song at a time. Incase you didn't know Deftones also have a song called passenger featuring MJK of tool.
Thanks for watching and commenting. I will be going through their catalogue as I agree singles aren't a fair representation of a band and so far I've enjoyed everything I've heard.
Figures out what makes Deftones Deftones at 36:28. Give them more listens bro. My advice is to go backwards in time with their catalogue so you will understand the progression in the band. I urge you. I’ll even subscribe to follow your journey. I’m a dedicated decades long Deftones fan and grew up to them. Btw way, also a longtime Tool fan. Keep Rockin man!
Thanks man I appreciate that you viewed and commented to my video 🤘
Deftones is one of the greatest band to ever do it i've seen them 30+ times live amazing.. Gotta do Koi album front to back it's my fav post White Pony album.. Chino's voice is one of the Few signature voices out there.. unique AF
Agreed!. One of the best bands ever!. I've seen them plenty of times. So good live. I'm just sad Dia De Los Deftones wont be happening this year. The 1st one was Awesome! 2nd.. meh.. but White Pony for me is not their best album by far. I'd take KNY, ATF, Self Titled before White Pony
Alright mate, I started off with your "Adrenaline" reaction video, then came to this... Right, If you want harsh heavy and screaming vocals, Adrenaline and Around the Fur are for you, And alot of the Self titled.. The other albums started to mix them alot [Heavy & Softer] , And you said it in this video.. The way they one second are heavy next melodic.. Thats their greatest strength IMO.. The Ying and Yang of the Deftones are amazing.. Great Atmosphere, But Keep it up mate, Go through the albums in order, i hope you enjoy them... P.S im a massive Tool fan too! Did you enjoy Fear Inoculum? Peace out
Thanks for watching, I actually didn't like fear inoculum that much tbh, I feel the end product wasn't worth the wait. It wasn't bad but I was hoping for more. Your thoughts?
Deftones express all my rage for me...
Check out White Pony and Around The Fur definitely the two albums that made them iconic
I will get round to it 🤘
@@MetalManny You must do these 2 albums I mean they are the albums that changed my music taste and Tool
Been fan for 20 years i understand new metal don't feel the old álbum revolotionario , but they were in ther time
Definitely react to They’re first album “adrenaline” bro since you like the heavier stuff🤘🏽
Adrenaline is amazing, I'm looking forward to the rest of their albums
@@MetalManny Koi and ATF to me sums up there phases SNW is my least fav album but it's still a great album
I’m curious who your top three all-time and your lifetime bands are?
Pompeji reminds me of smells like teen spirit with the bipolar calmness and then heaviness back to back
Good point there! That’s why I enjoy it so much
Tool and Deftones are LEGIT my 2 fav bands Chino and Maynard on Passenger on White Pony COME ON lol most people love both bands I F's Wit Maynard and Chino ALLLL day
Its Rolo from Vikings!!!!!
I'm surprised you didn't like Deftones but you love Tool. Usually I find that fans of one are usually fans of the other. I'm in that camp. Deftones are definitely a weird band and they like to experiment with their sound a lot. But yeah, give their discography a go around. I think you'll love White Pony, Deftones, Around The Fur, and Adrenaline. You'll like quite a number of songs on Diamond Eyes and Gore. Koi No Yokan and Saturday Night Wrist are very experimental and not all that heavy. Personally I love those two albums but I get why a lot of metal fans don't.
I’m kind of in that same weird spot where Deftones are probably my favorite band, but I’ve never been able to get into tool. It is true, fans of one are usually fans of the other. But a perfect circle, that’s my shit. I did watch the drum cam for Pneuma, and Danny Carey might just be what pulls me into them, but I’m still having trouble getting into their style. Any recommendation for the best binge album to get into them? I hear it’s better to listen to an entire album rather than pick songs here and there, that’s what I’m thinking of doing. Maybe I’ll like them, maybe I still won’t, I just don’t want to be missing out on something i might love
@@junkyardwillie8320 Vicarious, Forty Six & 2, Stinkfist, Prison Sex, Sober.
I really really understand the boredom of error as well. I think I like the album as a whole, and people keep saying that error takes a few listens to get into, but it’s probably my least favorite song off of the album. Part of it might be because I hold some resentment towards the song for sounding like it was gonna be super angry and aggressive with that gritty guitar strumming at the beginning, and that’s what I went into the song expecting, felt kinda mislead... but I also just really didn’t like the song
How comes u didn't like ur own album Stephen?
Enjoy it!! God dammit!!
I hated Deftones initially (still don't like the 1st album, neither does the vocalist). Breakthru was w/ White Pony & never looked back. Many songs are still growers though. They have unorthodox melodies that can take a re-listen to get adjusted to. For example, I bet you'd like The Spell of Mathematics on a re-listen. Listening to new full albums of any band, as opposed to cherry-picking, can be a chore. But White Pony & Diamond Eyes are both feasible. As a singular song, their best may be Rosemary, if you like Pink Floyd.
Chino doesn’t hate the first album just that his opinion of it has changed over time as he can’t relate to it anymore. He wrote some of those songs as a teenager while he’s almost fifty now. First album is really good, and a lot of those songs are bangers live.
I honestly understand the tone deaf observation, that’s what was a bit off putting to me when I first began listening to them, but I think it’s on purpose. It’s supposed to sound a bit off kilter, a bit off the rails, just a departure from the norm. Chino isn’t going to have that Maynard James Keenan precision, but not because he’s a bad vocalist, it’s just not his style. He has a much more relaxed way of singing, and has his own unique style, but like I said, I won hundred percent get where you’re coming from on the tone deaf thing, although he might be a bit tone deaf in live shows lol
Are you listening on laptop speakers ..?
Guilty, I have better speakers in my living room but at the time of this recording my family were asleep and I didn't want to risk waking them up.
lol.....You seem pained most of the time.
Oh well....maybe they just aren't your thing?
Also find it kinda funny how Chino's use of extended notes in chords, which is what I LOVE most about his melodies, is what seemed to really irk you. His melodies are damn near jazz influenced. Just love that. Maybe try Diamond Eyes? It's quite heavy and straight forward.
He liked the album so much he’s reacting to all their albums now, safe to say they are his thing lol
he said tone def , more like defstoned
How can you not get into deftones?
By the end they actually win him over, it is just a first reaction
Personal opinion my dude
yeah error and the spell of mathematics will definetly grow on ya man, try other deftones cds as well. or just relisten ohms cuz i must admit its a good new fan intro to deftones even if its their latest album. just my opinion
I'm all in, look out for more reactions if you have the time. 👍
@@MetalManny for suure man take care
Error is my favorite off this album
@@Rsilva5335 It IS the best out of the album "error" sure is
If I'm not mistaken there was another singer singing that song error ..which is also my least favorite song in the album
Nah that’s all chino
You're Stephen Carpenter's doppelganger.
I had to Google who he was when I first read this post, god damn you were right lol
Dude, you can't review an album with shitty pc speakers?
This was garbage. YW for the comment.
