Diamond Eyes is the sixth studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on May 4, 2010, by Reprise Records. It was the first album to feature bassist Sergio Vega, who replaced original bassist Chi Cheng. An album tentatively titled Eros was originally intended to be the band's sixth full-length release following Saturday Night Wrist (2006), but was not finished due to Cheng entering a coma after a serious car accident that occurred in November 2008, eventually resulting in his death in 2013. The band continued on with Vega as his replacement, and the release of Eros was put on hold in favor of Diamond Eyes in June 2009. Diamond Eyes was a critical and commercial success, peaking within the top ten of the US Billboard 200 and several other international charts; it was the band's highest charting album on the Billboard 200 since their 2003 eponymous fourth album. Four singles were released from Diamond Eyes: the title track, "Rocket Skates", "Sextape", and "You've Seen the Butcher". Background Further information: Chi Cheng (musician) § Automobile crash and coma, and Eros (Deftones album) Deftones started writing material for the successor to 2006's Saturday Night Wrist in early 2007. The band was dissatisfied with the lengthy writing and recording process of Saturday Night Wrist, and wanted to release a quick follow-up record in the same manner as earlier albums such as 1995's Adrenaline and 1997's Around the Fur, which were recorded without the digital audio program Pro Tools. Instead, those albums were recorded as just a band "in the room with just our instruments, no other distractions", according to frontman Chino Moreno.[2] The band recorded and completed their Terry Date-produced album, tentatively titled Eros, in 2008, and it was expected to be released in early 2009.[3] However, bassist Chi Cheng was seriously injured in an automobile accident in November 2008, leaving him in a coma and putting the release of Eros on hold. Unsure if or when Cheng would recover and be able to perform with the band again, Deftones started playing various shows and festivals with Quicksand bassist Sergio Vega on bass, starting in early 2009. Vega, a close friend of the band, had previously filled in for Cheng during tours in 1999.[4] At this point, Deftones were not sure if they wanted to break up or continue writing and performing music.[5] In June 2009, Deftones decided to indefinitely put the release of Eros on hold and start writing a brand new album with Vega.[6] The band still hopes to release Eros at some point, but wanted to wait until Cheng was no longer in a semi-conscious state, and they did not feel that it represented who they were as artists or as people at the time.[7][8] Deftones wanted to make an optimistic record, as opposed to the dark and angry album they had just finished.[9] Diamond Eyes was recorded in two months with producer Nick Raskulinecz, who had previously worked with Foo Fighters, Velvet Revolver, Stone Sour and Alice in Chains.[10] Deftones avoided using Pro Tools on the album. Instead, they favored writing songs together as a band and practicing them "a million times 'til they were perfect" in order to achieve a more raw and "personable" sound.[9] Release Diamond Eyes was originally scheduled to be released on April 27 by Reprise,[10] but was pushed back three weeks to May 18,[11] and later pushed forward to May 4, 2010.[12] The latter release date change was possibly due to the album leaking onto the Internet in March 2010, two months before the original scheduled release date.[13] The first song from the album, "Rocket Skates", was available for free download through the band's official website on February 23, 2010.[11] The song had been included in Deftones live performances starting in October 2009,[6] and was later released as a limited edition 7" vinyl single for international Record Store Day on April 17, 2010, serving as the second overall single.[14] A music video directed by 13th Witness (Tim McGurr) was released on March 9.[15] The first single, however, was the title track, "Diamond Eyes". It was released as a single to digital retailers on March 23, 2010.[16] The music video for the song, directed by Roboshobo (Robert Schober), was released on April 13.[17] Deftones performed a live webcast of songs from Diamond Eyes and answered fan questions on May 4 in Dallas, Texas.[18] A music video for the track "Sextape" was released on September 3, 2010. The video was directed by ZFCL (Zak Forrest and Chad Liebenguth, known for their work with Foxy Shazam and Fang Island).[19] On October 28, 2010, Deftones released the official video for "You've Seen the Butcher", directed by Jodeb Films.[20] In August 2011, Deftones released the official music video for "Beauty School", directed by 13th Witness.[21] At just over 41 minutes, not including the pre-order and deluxe edition bonus tracks, Diamond Eyes is Deftones' shortest album. Lyrics and themes After dealing with the tragedy surrounding Cheng's accident, Deftones wanted to create an album with an overall positive and optimistic vibe. Describing the band's state while writing for the album, Moreno stated, "Our inspiration and unity as a band is stronger than it has ever been before and we needed to channel that energy into our music".[22] Noticeably lacking on the album were songs about complaining, hurting or how "life sucks" – common lyrical themes for Moreno since the early '90s.[9][23] Moreno described the overall theme of the album as a "positive zest for life", and also said it had "a fantasy vibe" similar to White Pony.[9][23] The lyrics for "Rocket Skates" contained "beautiful yet violent imagery" and were compared to the song "Knife Prty" from White Pony.[9] Deftones also thought it would be difficult to tour in support of a new album with memories of Cheng attached to it. Commenting on songwriting, Moreno stated: I don't like listening to people's problems -- I like music. Music has been smothered with that complaining since the early-'90s. It gets old. Instead of going to the opposite side of the spectrum and listening to The Black Eyed Peas, which is just straight silly, I choose to listen to more instrumental music. I do very little singing about myself on this record. I love songs where I can totally take myself out of being human. I can sing about really odd things, and they don't necessarily have to pertain to me at all. It paints a picture. Those are the kind of lyrics I grew up with -- like The Cure. Really visual images and no storytelling. — Chino Moreno Track listing All tracks are written by Deftones No. Title Length 1. "Diamond Eyes" 3:09 2. "Royal" 3:31 3. "CMND/CTRL" 2:26 4.

Koi No Yokan is the seventh studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on November 12, 2012, by Reprise Records.[3][4] Its title is a phrase from the Japanese language "恋の予感", translating to "premonition of love".[5][6] Koi No Yokan was met with widespread acclaim from critics upon its release, and debuted at number eleven on the US Billboard 200, selling over 65,000 copies in its first week of sales. According to Nielsen SoundScan, it has sold over 200,000 copies to date in the United States. Background Band frontman Chino Moreno characterized the album as "dynamic" with a full range of noise, noting an increased contribution of ideas by bassist Sergio Vega compared to their previous record, Diamond Eyes.[7] A major change in the recording process came with the use of the Fractal Audio Systems Axe-Fx preamp/effects processor, which creates the sound of multiple outboard amps and pedals and allowed for different tones. Vega said the group was able to "bring Fractal into hotel rooms and run it into software and record ideas and flesh them out later". The group tracked guitar, bass and vocals, then recorded drums and replaced the guitar, bass and vocals. Vega confirmed that "everything was organic".[8] Composition Described as having an "alternative metal vibe",[9] the music incorporates experimental elements from the band's previous albums Saturday Night Wrist (2006) and Diamond Eyes (2010),[10] incorporating elements from metal (including doom metal and groove metal), alternative rock, shoegaze, dream pop, hardcore punk, post-rock, and prog rock.[5][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][3] Release On September 19, 2012, the band released the song "Leathers" as a promotional single via a free download on their website.[19][20][21][22] On October 8, 2012, "Leathers" was released as the album's first single.[23] "Leathers" was also released as a limited-edition cassingle with "Rosemary" as the B-side.[24] On October 3, 2012, the song "Tempest" premiered on PureVolume for streaming.[25] "Tempest" was released as a single on October 9, 2012.[26] Koi No Yokan was released on vinyl in four versions: a standard retail version pressed on 140-gram black vinyl (3,000 units), a direct-to-consumer version on 180-gram black vinyl with foil-stamped numbered jackets (1,000 units), an international edition pressed on 180-gram vinyl and an exclusive edition sold through Hot Topic retailers pressed on 140-gram clear-colored vinyl (1,500 units).[27] This was also the first album released through HDtracks.[28] Tour The band launched a tour on October 9, 2012, which ended on November 21 in Los Angeles. The band played at venues with capacities between 1,000 and 4,000 with the goal being to allow fans to experience the music before the album was released.[2 Track listing All lyrics are written by Chino Moreno; all music is composed by Deftones No. Title Length 1.

Gore is the eighth studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on April 8, 2016, by Reprise Records.[1] Its release was met with critical acclaim, debuting at number two on the US Billboard 200; it is the band's fifth album to debut within the chart's top-ten and is their highest-charting since their 2003 eponymous album. The album was noted for its creative tension between frontman Chino Moreno and lead guitarist Stephen Carpenter, which was described by Rolling Stone as Moreno "playing Morrissey to the guitarist's Meshuggah".[2] Background Writing and recording In March 2014, while Moreno was touring with his side project Crosses in support of their self-titled debut album, the rest of Deftones began writing a follow-up to 2012's Koi No Yokan.[3] Deftones also previously reported that they intended to record a new album either in late 2014 or early 2015.[4] In late February 2015, just after the band had finished the new album's drum tracks, Moreno told Rolling Stone that he expected to be done tracking the album by the end of March, and that Deftones had written 16 songs during the album's sessions. He described the album as "a little more of a heady record" than the previous album.[5] Carpenter expressed difficulty in getting into the feel of the album initially, comparing the feel of the song "Hearts / Wires" with being a serial killer. He stated, "I had to embrace my inner psycho rapist and come up with the part and get into it". Despite creative differences, band members noted the collaborative nature of the album and considered the tension between differences of musical styles to be a strength.[2] Bassist Sergio Vega utilized a Bass VI when recording the new material, helping to push the band into new sonic territory.[6] Jerry Cantrell of Alice in Chains provided guest guitar on the track "Phantom Bride".[7] On May 15, 2015, Moreno was interviewed by Kerrang! about the new album, which he described by saying, "The songs have a lot of different moods". He further explained that it was not a "happy record", but also "not a completely angry record".[8] Release Initially the album was tentatively scheduled to be released on September 25, 2015,[9] later being pushed back to late November, as final mixes as well as the title, cover and liner notes were still being completed.[10] On October 26, 2015, drummer Abe Cunningham clarified that the band were still working on mixes, album art and song titles, and that the new album would be coming out in the first part of 2016.[11] On January 22, 2016, during an interview held at the 2016 NAMM Show, Carpenter revealed the release date of the new album to be April 8, 2016.[1] On January 27, the band posted a 30-second teaser video to their website featuring new music from the album and confirming the album title as Gore.[12] The album's first single, "Prayers / Triangles", was released on February 4, 2016.[13] The second single, "Doomed User", was shared on March 16.[14] On April 4, the band released the third single from the album, "Hearts / Wires".[15] Composition Described as "having the marks of an experimental-rock gospel",[16] Gore features the band's alternative metal sound meshed with a variety of influences from other genres.[17] The music has been compared to the band's 2006 album, Saturday Night Wrist, with critics noting its experimental[18][19][20] and atmospheric sound.[18][19][20][21] Chuck Campbell of Knox News noted a post-metal sound on Gore, calling it "timelessly vital".[22] Rob Sayce of Rock Sound noted that the band "drags their new wave and post-punk influences to the fore" on the record.[23] Several critics also noted a space rock sound on the album.[18][24][25] Reception Track listing All lyrics are written by Chino Moreno; all music is composed by Deftones No. Title Length 1.

Ohms (stylized as _Ohms on physical editions)[1] is the ninth studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on September 25, 2020, through Reprise Records.[2][3] The album was produced by Terry Date, making it their first collaboration since the unreleased Eros and the final with bassist Sergio Vega who departed from the band in early 2021. The album was preceded by the release of two singles: "Ohms" and "Genesis". The song "Ceremony" was later released as a single. Ohms received acclaim from critics.[4] The title track was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rock Performance in 2022. Background and production Deftones released their eighth studio album Gore on April 8, 2016, via Warner Bros. Records.[5] As part of the album promotion, the band embarked on an extensive US tour in the summer of 2016, with support from Refused and Spotlights.[6] The following summer, they performed a coheadlining North American tour with Rise Against, featuring support from Thrice.[7] In 2018, Deftones hosted the first annual Dia de los Deftones festival at Petco Park, featuring performances from artists like Mike Shinoda, Rocket from the Crypt, and Doja Cat.[8] In a 2017 interview with NME, vocalist Chino Moreno said that Deftones had "talked about getting together sooner [rather] than later" on a new album.[9] On March 28, 2018, the Deftones Instagram account shared images of the band at a recording studio, one of which was captioned "Someone say jam?!".[10] That May, Moreno told Rock.com.AR that the band had "six or seven new songs, which are still mutating".[11] Deftones provided another update on the album in April 2020, with drummer Abe Cunningham saying in an Instagram video that, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, "it's been a bit difficult to get everyone in the same room", but that they were in the process of mixing the new album, and were aiming for a late 2020 release date.[12] Deftones worked with producer Terry Date on Ohms, their first collaboration since the unreleased Eros album in 2008.[13] Recording took place at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles and Trainwreck Studios in Seattle.[14] Composition Musically, Ohms is widely described as a return to the band's core alternative metal style.[15][16][17][18] The album was also described as shoegaze[18] and post-rock.[18] Classic Rock magazine added a different assessment, calling the album "dream pop with a metallic edge".[19] It is the first Deftones album since their eponymous 2003 album to be produced by Terry Date, although the band had worked with him during the sessions of the unreleased album Eros in 2008.[20] It is also their first album in which Stephen Carpenter utilizes a nine-string guitar.[21] Packaging The cover art was designed by Frank Maddocks, who has worked with Deftones on each of their albums since White Pony.[3] There are a total of 12,995 dots on the cover art.[22] Many fans believed that the design pays tribute to the band's original bassist Chi Cheng, who died in 2013, as the eyes that appear on the cover art line up closely with a photo of him. Band drummer Abe Cunningham stated in an interview that this was merely a coincidence, however. He added that the cover art idea reminded him of the 1980s, specifically the music video for Prince's 1984 song "When Doves Cry".[23] Shortly before the album's release, Deftones launched the "Adopt a Dot" campaign, allowing for people to purchase one of the dots on the artwork as their own. A photo of the purchaser would then appear as the dot they purchased and be a part of the "Ohms Adopt a Dot digital experience" viewable online. All of the proceeds from the campaign were given to both the UC Davis Children's Hospital and Crew Nation relief fund.[22] Promotion The band began teasing the album's release with a week-long digital campaign in August 2020. Deftones released cryptic social media posts, their official website and animations through Spotify's Canvas feature that when solved revealed the word "ohms" and longitudinal coordinates for a billboard in Los Angeles teasing the album artwork.[24][25] The campaign concluded with a formal announcement for Ohms and a music video for the album's lead single, "Ohms".[2] The music video for "Ohms" was directed by Rafatoon and featured what Rolling Stone described as, "band performance video interspersed with scenes from a dystopian world, mirroring the musically and lyrically heavy song sentiments."[3] At the time of release, vocalist Chino Moreno described "Ohms" as a "a good scope of where this record's at,"[26] though in a separate interview producer Terry Date didn't feel like the song was a good choice for the album's lead promotional track.[27] Deftones were originally scheduled to tour North America in support of Ohms with Gojira and Poppy in July to September 2020.[28] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tour was postponed until 2021.[29] Belching Beaver released a limited edition pale ale beer named after the album in 2020.

Saturday Night Wrist is the fifth studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on October 31, 2006, by Maverick Records. Despite early contributions that were later scrapped, it marked the departure of Terry Date, who had produced the band's first four albums. It was also the last Deftones album to feature the bassist Chi Cheng, as well as the last album of his career and his lifetime, prior to being involved in a serious car accident in 2008, which put him in a coma. He eventually died five years later from cardiac arrest. Saturday Night Wrist was the product of an arduous and stressful creative process lasting roughly two years and straining relationships within the band. Inspiration for the album was also largely influenced by the singer Chino Moreno's drug addictions and the crumbling of his marriage. The final result was an album met with praise from fans and critics alike, with some critics applauding the album following the band's self-titled effort.[1][2] Background Early writing and recording In early 2004, Maverick Records informed the band they were obligated to begin writing for another record due to the commercial failure and underwhelming reception of the previous record the band's self-titled effort.[3][4][5] They began pioneering ideas for a new album at their studio, The Spot, in Sacramento, California. On April 30, 2004, they announced they would be relocating to Malibu, California, to continue writing the album at Morning View House. Deftones spent most of the summer there, resulting in an album's worth of material that the singer Chino Moreno described as "straight evil music". They then began searching for a producer and started recording. They initially considered enlisting Ken Andrews of Failure and Ric Ocasek of the Cars, but to no avail. They then worked with Dan the Automator for about a week. According to the guitarist Stephen Carpenter during collaboration with Dan, Deftones seemed to be pursuing the "more technical", math metal-based elements of the band's sound. After some deliberation, however, Moreno and the drummer Abe Cunningham successfully pushed for working with the producer Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper, Kiss) and the engineer Brian Virtue. Deftones then took a short break before planning a month-long tour with Dredg and C-Minus to road-test some material starting in San Francisco, California, and ending in Hartford, Connecticut, near where Ezrin's studio was located. Recording of the album began in November 2004. During the sessions, tensions mounted within the band and between Moreno and Ezrin. Moreno eventually jumped ship to continue work on his side project Team Sleep while the rest of the band continued recording. The Ezrin sessions concluded before Christmas and the band relocated back to their home base in Sacramento to take a break. In early 2005, Deftones started tweaking the Ezrin material with Virtue at their studio The Spot, writing several new songs in the process. Moreno decided to take a break from recording in the spring to tour with Team Sleep, who were also releasing their long-awaited debut album. Moreno claimed that this was good for him, as he was somewhat unable to focus on the recording sessions due to his speed and alcohol addictions, as well as the dissolution of his longtime marriage to wife Celeste.[6] Break and later sessions The rest of the band, while anxious to finish the album, decided it would be best to take a break from music. During the break, Deftones released a 10-year anniversary CD/DVD, titled B-Sides & Rarities, on October 4, 2005. It included one of the songs from the Virtue sessions, a cover of "Wax and Wane" by Cocteau Twins. In late 2005, Moreno met with Date to help record vocals for some of the remaining tracks. The band also managed to quickly record a cover of John Lennon's "Jealous Guy" for Amnesty International as well as an iTunes exclusive cover of the Cars' "Drive". In early 2006, all previously recorded vocals were scrapped and the band started working on the album again with longtime friend Shaun Lopez (of Far and the Revolution Smile) acting as producer. The album was edited by Ryan Gorman. Finally, with all recording finished in April 2006, the album was mixed by Ryan Williams. The album featured musical contributions from Annie Hardy of Giant Drag and Serj Tankian of System of a Down; the latter also contributed to the writing of one song, "Mein". Carpenter stated in interviews that a significant portion of the songs were based on ideas by Moreno and that "Pink Cellphone", minus Hardy's vocals, was "all Chino". In fact, Moreno plays second guitar on many of the songs, including "Hole in the Earth", "Beware", "Cherry Waves", "U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R,A,B,Select,Start", "Xerces" and "Rivière". However, Moreno stated that "Rats!Rats!Rats!" was "all Stephen". Carpenter wrote and recorded all guitar parts on "Rapture", "Rats!Rats!Rats!" and "Kimdracula", but also played guitar and wrote guitar parts for all songs except "U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R,A,B,Select,Start", where he played drums and Moreno played guitar. The title for the latter song was a reference to the Konami Code, a famous video game cheat code. The writing and recording process of Saturday Night Wrist was fraught and placed strain on the relationships within the band. Moreno stated that making it was "a seriously unhealthy experience", and that it "dragged on without much direction". Following its creation, after leaving to work on Team Sleep, he stated that he "wasn't sure if [he] was going to return".[7] Lyrical themes Moreno described the lyrical subject matter of some of the songs in later interviews. He explained that "Kimdracula" was part of his email address at the beginning of making the record, during his heavy drug-use phase. "Beware" was a warning to others about sex, drugs and drinking, which were the three main problems he encountered during the album's creation. A story about a witch that Moreno wrote during his drug phase was told in "Rivière". "Cherry Waves" was about testing the trust a person has in someone else. The confusion Moreno experienced when making Saturday Night Wrist was illustrated in the song "Rapture". Communication issues between the divided band, during the making of the album, were captured in "Hole in the Earth". Moreno explained the record's title as being a reference to the nerve damage caused when an intoxicated person falls asleep on their arm. He elaborated on the title, referencing "when you're alone on Saturday nights and your only best friend is your shaking wrist".[8] Release Saturday Night Wrist was released on October 31, 2006. It was leaked on the Internet on October 13, over two weeks prior to its release. Lead single "Hole in the Earth" was sent to radio on October 16. A collection of 16 demos from the Ezrin sessions later became available online, containing rough vocal mixes of "Cherry Waves" and "Combat", an instrumental version of what would become "Finger of Death", and several instrumentals recorded by the band without Moreno that did not make the final cut. The iTunes version included the cover of "Drive" by the Cars, which featured producer Lopez as well as a prominent sample of Massive Attack's track "Protection" (from their album of the same name).

Around the Fur is the second studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on October 28, 1997, by Maverick Records. The songs "My Own Summer (Shove It)" and "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)" were released as singles with accompanying music videos. The album was certified gold by the RIAA in 1999, and was later certified platinum in 2011. Background Around the Fur has been described as alternative metal,[1][2][3] nu metal,[4][5] and post-hardcore.[6] The guitarist Stephen Carpenter has since reflected, "We didn't really pay much attention to that. I remember when these subgenre names didn't exist. It was just metal. So I don't think we made a decision to step away [from nu metal] – we've never paid attention to what anyone else was doing. We just did what we thought was right, and tried to make a killer album."[7] The producer Terry Date stated that the band wanted to become "more sophisticated" with Around the Fur.[7] Lyrically, much of the album addresses topics such as juvenile perception, existential angst, sex, romance, violence, the death of loved ones, and break-ups.[8] The band had gathered inspiration off of their own internal issues and personal incidents, as the four of them rented an apartment in Southern Seattle whilst they were writing and recording the album.[9] The singer Chino Moreno and Carpenter recall the band often drank and partied frequently, even recalling random moments of writing where the bassist Chi Cheng and Carpenter would smoke marijuana frequently together and write riffs together; the two later included their voicemail of them smoking out of a bong as a hidden track between "MX" and "Damone".[10] It was the second album to feature Frank Delgado under additional personnel; he eventually joined the band officially in 1999. The song "Headup" featured additional vocals by Max Cavalera of Soulfly. The album cover was shot by the photographer Rick Kosick during a late-night party in Seattle where the band was recording. Upon seeing the candid photo of a woman, the band decided that they wanted to use it as the album cover. Kosick was unsure who the woman was, so the band had to find and track her down to obtain permission to use the photo, which she eventually granted.[11] The woman appearing on the cover is Lisa M. Hughes, a friend of Stephen Carpenter.[12] Hughes spoke publicly about the cover for the first time during the album's 20th anniversary in 2017.[13][14] Moreno has since expressed his dislike of the cover, calling it "horrible".[15] Composition and lyrics "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)" (1997) Duration: 31 seconds.0:31 Sample of "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)", the second single from Around the Fur (1997). This shows the album's cleaner production and a tendency toward more melody in the music.[16] Problems playing this file? See media help. In a 1998 interview with Chart magazine, Moreno commented, "When we went in to make this record, we really didn't have a set idea of what we wanted to come out with." However, he felt that the album "fell into place" once the band had settled into the studio.[16] The band expanded its sound, spending more time with the producer Terry Date, and giving more thought to the album's production. Abe Cunningham varied his drum sound and experimented by using different types of snare drums on almost every track.[17] The album was praised for its loud-soft dynamics, the flow of the tracks, Moreno's unusual vocals, and the strong rhythm section grooves created by Cunningham and Cheng.[16][18][19] Release The album was highly anticipated, and propelled the band to fame in the alternative metal scene on the strength of radio and MTV airplay for the singles "My Own Summer (Shove It)" and "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)".[20] The album's title track was also released as a promotional single. Around the Fur sold 43,000 copies in its first week of release, and entered the Billboard 200 at No. 29 (its peak position), remaining on the chart for 17 weeks.[19][21] Around the Fur went on to reach RIAA gold status on June 24, 1999, and platinum status on June 7, 2011.[22] When the album was released on Spotify, it contained an alternate version of "Headup" running a full minute longer than the original release.[2 Track listing All tracks are written by Deftones, except "Headup", written by Deftones and Max Cavalera No. Title Length 1.

White Pony is the third studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on June 20, 2000, through Maverick Records. It was produced by Terry Date, who produced the band's first two albums, Adrenaline (1995) and Around the Fur (1997). Recording sessions took place between August and December 1999 at Larrabee Sound Studios in West Hollywood and The Plant Recording Studios in Sausalito, California. The album marked a significant growth in the band's sound, incorporating influences from post-hardcore, trip hop, shoegaze, progressive rock, and post-rock into the alternative metal sound which they had become known for.[1][2] White Pony was also the first recording to feature Frank Delgado as a full-time member of the band on turntables and synthesizer; Delgado had previously worked with the band as a featured guest on their first two albums, producing sound effects on some songs. It was also the first Deftones album which Chino Moreno began to contribute rhythm guitar parts. Upon its release and retrospectively, the album was met with critical acclaim, and is regarded by fans and critics alike as one of the band's most mature outings at that point.[3][4][5][6] The album includes two successful singles ("Change (In the House of Flies)" and "Back to School (Mini Maggit)"), the promotional single "Digital Bath", as well as the 2001 Grammy Award-winning track for Best Metal Performance, "Elite". The album received a 20th anniversary reissue, packaged with Black Stallion, a companion remix album of White Pony, in December 2020.[7][8] Background and recording After a break from touring, the band spent four months in the studio writing and recording White Pony with producer Terry Date, the longest amount of time they had dedicated to an album thus far.[9] Frontman Chino Moreno explained that the majority of this time was spent trying to write songs, and that the writing of "Change (In the House of Flies)" was the turning point where the band began working as a unit.[9] Despite being pressured to release the album sooner, the band decided to take their time making the album. Bassist Chi Cheng explained, "We didn't feel like we had anything to lose, so we made the record we wanted to make." Moreno did not have an overall lyrical theme in mind, but made a conscious decision to bring an element of fantasy into his lyrics, explaining, "I basically didn’t sing about myself on this record. I made up a lot of story lines and some dialogue, even. I took myself completely out of it and wrote about other things. Once I did that I was able to sing about anything I wanted to, I could be a lot more general. There’s a lot of stuff on this record that people are going to question me about, and I can just remove myself from it. It’s not me. I’m writing a story here."[9] Moreno later claimed in a 2020 interview that his decision to play rhythm guitar on the album caused tensions to escalate with Carpenter during the writing process. Despite the tensions, Moreno and Carpenter found themselves on friendlier terms and found a cohesive songwriting process for most of the album's tracks, with Moreno claiming “Initially, I don’t think the idea was that I was going to actually play on the record, even. Then I remember Stephen specifically saying, ‘Dude, if you’re going to play it in practice, then you’re going to play on the record!’ and I was like, ‘Oh, okay… If that’s cool with you!’ I don’t think he was too happy about it, to be honest, then [...] I do remember us both smiling at each other when we were sitting listening to the track being made, and the fusing of both our guitars, the sound of it, the way that Terry [Date] produced it”.[10] Although the band initially did not intend to include guest musicians on the album,[9] it features additional vocals by Maynard James Keenan (Tool, A Perfect Circle) on "Passenger" and Rodleen Getsic (simply credited as Rodleen) on "Knife Prty".[11] "Rx Queen" also features vocal contributions from Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland, though he is uncredited. Weiland brought Moreno to his studio for collaboration, where he would sing along and suggest vocal harmonies; the result was left in the final version of the song, and credit for Weiland's part was never discussed by either party.[12] Composition Some of this section's listed sources may not be reliable.

(August 2023) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Faith No More have been recognized as an influence on the music of White Pony Stylistically, White Pony combines the band's standard alternative metal sound,[13][14][15] influenced by bands such as Tool, Faith No More, Nine Inch Nails, and Pink Floyd, with the layered atmospherics of The Cure, specifically their Pornography era.[15][16] It has also been categorized as an art rock[17] and nu metal album,[18] though several critics also acknowledge that the record moved beyond the latter label.[1][19][20] Metal Hammer likened the album to a metal version of Radiohead's critically acclaimed OK Computer (1997).[21] The original opener for the album, "Feiticeira," lacks conventional song structure and builds over a background of guitars and bass.[22] Moreno discussed the lyrics to the song: "The name Feiticeira is some Portuguese name that I read in a magazine and just liked. It's based on the scenario of being taken captive. It's completely fictional. I want that people who listen to it feel like they are the ones in the situation. Because of that I sing it in first person. It's up to people to figure out if i'm having fun (with them) or not, even though it sounds a bit eerie". "Digital Bath" features a trip hop drum beat with Moreno's vocals over heavy two-guitar trade-offs and a more atmospheric texture from Delgado.[22] "Elite" is more straightforward and heavy and lacks typical Deftones dynamics, containing industrial rock influences.[23] Moreno said that the song "is laughing at everybody trying to become what they already are. If you want to be one of the elite, you are".[23] "Rx Queen"' contains heavy percussive effects and stuttering bass.[22] Moreno considers it "the most futuristic song in the album".[23] On "Street Carp", after a brief guitar introduction, the band crashes in with full force.[22] Moreno said: "It's a classic Deftones song, with a rolling riff and some really interesting chords in the chorus. The vocals are kinda crazy - I'm singing out loud over the top of the music, like (The Smiths front man) Morrissey or something, a cool contrast".[23] Although the song was not released as a single, a promo video was made for it.[24] "Teenager" consists of an acoustic riff and a "scratching" line with a trip-hop beat and glitch influences. The song deals with a youthful romance coming to an end.[22] Moreno stated that he wrote the lyrics when he was 15 after a first date and that it was originally a Team Sleep song.[23] White Pony features guest vocals from Scott Weiland (left) on "Rx Queen" and Maynard James Keenan on "Passenger" The opening chords for "Knife Prty" lead into a distorted introduction with a moving bass line and a vocal bridge sung by Getsic in Spanish-Arabic style.[22] Chino said, "It's a seductive song with a lot of violent imagery. People don't tend to like sex mixed with violence. The mid section has amazing vocals from a girl called Rodleen who worked next door to our studio".[23] An atmospheric, heavy song with a bleak guitar line and a bridge featuring a subtle scratch solo by Delgado, "Korea" is considered one of the album's highlights.[22] "Passenger" features a guitar intro and vocal interplay between Keenan and Moreno alongside piano and keyboard lines, leading to heavy guitar that introduces the choruses. "Change (In the House of Flies)" was the album's lead single, and became a radio hit.[22] Moreno compared it to earlier single "Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)", considering it "a beautiful metamorphosis".[23] The closer, "Pink Maggit" is a "brooding, surreal epic" which ends with a recorded heartbeat.[15][25] The title is a reference to a line in the Dr. Dooom song "No Chorus" on the album First Come, First Served which mocks Nas.[26] Leading off the reissued version of the album, "Back to School (Mini Maggit)" is a reinterpretation of the album's closer with additional rap or hip hop influences.[15] Moreno at first appreciated the support the band received from the label as a result of recording the track,[27] but later declared that he regretted the creation of the song and its placement on the album.[15] "The Boy's Republic" is a song exclusive to the limited-edition releases of the album, with lyrics about someone desperately seeking redemption, and comes after "Pink Maggit," making it the final track on the limited edition.[28] Album title "White pony" is street slang for cocaine. However, there are other meanings for the album name, including a sexual reference, as explained by Moreno: "There's a lot of different references for White Pony. One of them is a cocaine reference and there's a lot of stuff... have you ever heard stuff like in dream books that if you dream about a white pony, then you're having a sexual dream? There's a lot of stuff that kinda goes around it. And there's an old song [that goes], 'Ride the white horse.' That's obviously a drug-reference song." White pony also refers to high grade pure heroin. Heroin is sometimes referred to as “horse”, the uncut white heroin is “white pony”[29] Release Upon release, White Pony debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 below Britney Spears' Oops!... I Did It Again, selling 178,000 copies in its first week.[30] White Pony is Deftones' highest-selling album to date, being certified gold on September 7, 2000, and eventually the album became their first platinum record certified by the RIAA on July 17, 2002.[31] Five different editions of the album exist. On its release date, limited-edition numbered copies were released with solid red and black jewel cases. The two differently colored cases also featured different booklet inserts. Both limited-edition versions included "The Boy's Republic" but not "Back to School (Mini Maggit)." The edition with a gray cover was released as the initial non-limited version of the album and did not include "The Boy's Republic". This, along with the red and black versions, were the properly sequenced version of the album as the band intended. The gray version was later superseded by the current white version, which added "Back to School (Mini Maggit)" as the first track. This was only added as a marketing strategy, a decision that Moreno stated that he was unhappy with.[32][33] The original release was also pressed on clear red vinyl for a promotional run of about 1,000 copies. In honor of the album's 20th anniversary, Deftones re-released White Pony on December 11, 2020, packaged with Black Stallion, a bonus remix album.[7] Black Stallion features the full track list of the original White Pony album in order with each song recreated by a different producer with an "electronic, beat-driven" approach. Deftones originally conceived of doing a remix album prior to the recording of White Pony and had reached out to DJ Shadow to remix the entire album himself.[8] Black Stallion includes remixes from DJ Shadow, Clams Casino, Robert Smith, Mike Shinoda and more; and was promoted with a music video for Purity Ring's remix of "Knife Prty".[7] Track listing All tracks are written by Deftones (Stephen Carpenter, Chi Cheng, Abe Cunningham, Frank Delgado, Chino Moreno) except Passenger, written by Deftones and Maynard James Keenan White Pony original edition (gray cover) track listing[11] No. Title Length 1.

Deftones is the fourth studio album by the American alternative metal band Deftones, released on May 20, 2003, by Maverick Records. The album features a strong change in musical direction from the band's previous albums, ranging from some of their heavier compositions to moody trip hop and shoegaze influences. It was also the band's last release to be produced by Terry Date until Ohms in 2020. Background Originally titled Lovers, the album was instead given an eponymous title because singer Chino Moreno considered Lovers too obvious in relation to the context of its material (the former title song "Lovers" did appear as a b-side on the UK "Hexagram" single). Date was frustrated by the very slow pace of the band working in the studio. Musical style Deftones is an eclectic album, with songs spanning many different ideas in diverse genres. It has a much different feel than prior efforts, due in small part to Frank Delgado leaving his turntables behind and instead focusing on playing keyboards and synthesizers for a majority of the songs. Most of the album's songs make extensive use of the band's low G# tuning, resulting in some of the heaviest songs in the band's catalog. On the other hand, the track "Lucky You" is a dark, soft, trip hop-influenced piece featuring DJ Crook from Moreno's side project Team Sleep and vocalist Rey Osburn of Tinfed. A grand piano and toy piano were featured in the mournful "Anniversary of an Uninteresting Event." In addition to trip hop influences, significant shoegaze elements have been noted on the album, especially in regards to the song "Minerva".[5][6][7] Promotion Deftones produced two singles, "Minerva" and "Hexagram." Music videos were shot for both singles as well as the track "Bloody Cape", which was also intended to be a single, but was released in limited editions for promotional purposes only.[8] The latter's video was only available on the band's official website for one day, but was later released on the DVD portion of the band's B-Sides & Rarities. As the lead single, "Minerva" featured a melodic, commercially viable sound and gained strong rotation on mainstream rock video programming. In contrast, the heavier, more abrasive sound of "Hexagram" landed it on metal-themed shows such as Uranium and Headbangers Ball. "Battle-Axe" was featured in the video game Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, while "Minerva" was featured in True Crime: Streets of LA, NHL 2004, House of Wax, and also as downloadable content for the Rock Band series.

Colors is the fourth studio album by American progressive metalcore band Between the Buried and Me, released on September 18, 2007 through Victory Records. Although separated in 8 tracks, Colors gives the impression of one continuous song, with transitions between each part. The album was remixed and remastered in 2020. In August 2021, the band released a sequel to Colors, titled Colors II.[1] Overview Colors was recorded in April through May 2007 at the Basement Studios with Jamie King as the chosen producer for it. Prior to its release, it received great praise and sold 12,600 copies in its first week of release, reaching 57th on the Billboard 200, which was the first time the band reached the top 100 on the list.[2] Mike Portnoy, formerly of Dream Theater, one of Between the Buried and Me's main influences, named Colors his favorite album of the year. PopMatters wrote, "A true marvel, this challenging but ultimately highly rewarding album is an example of a young band just discovering what it’s capable of. At the rate they’re going, the modern metal pantheon awaits," while Ultimate Guitar also named it "Best Album of the Year" in their annual This Year in Metal.[3] A live DVD, titled Colors Live, was released on October 14, 2008 and includes footage from a live show on August 2, 2008 at Rocketown in Nashville, Tennessee. The song "Prequel to the Sequel" is featured as downloadable content for the video game, Rock Band 2, though it is the radio edited version of the song, shortened to five minutes, leaving the polka verse and everything after missing.[4] In May 2017, Between the Buried and Me announced a 10th anniversary tour of the album with The Contortionist, Polyphia, and Toothgrinder.[5] Music The band described the album as "adult contemporary progressive death metal".[6][7] Dave Donnelly of AllMusic described the music of Colors as being "an anomaly on the otherwise more conservative, pop-punk and hardcore oriented Victory Records label" noting that the group "play a progressive style of extreme metal" which incorporated a range of styles.[8] Loudwire commented about the song "Ants of the Sky": "The 13-minute track weaves in and out of demented carnival metal, psychedelic solos, smooth jazz guitar, space rock and a goddamn country hoedown… not to mention the most tear-jerkingly beautiful solo of Paul Waggoner’s career."[9] Promotion Two weeks before the release of Colors, the band released a series of videos for the songs. The videos consisted of clips from classic films, and each video was shown for one day before being removed. The videos were designated different colors to coincide with the album's theme, although having no known relation to the lyrics: "Foam Born (a) The Backtrack" and "(b) The Decade of Statues" – orange "Informal Gluttony" – green "Sun of Nothing" – yellow "Ants of the Sky" – red "Prequel to the Sequel" – aqua "Viridian" – blue "White Walls" – purple Reception Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating About.com [10] AllMusic [8] Alternative Press [11] Blabbermouth.net 9/10[12] Exclaim!

Aside from metal, it has influences from jazz and pop. It’s an album that encompasses differing styles but has an irresistible dynamic."[19] Loudwire placed the album at #7 on their "Top 100 Hard Rock and Heavy Metal Albums of the 21st Century" list, saying that it was "nothing less than a complete metamorphosis of progressive metal."[20] Kerrang named the album in their list "The 21 Best U.S. Metalcore Albums Of All Time."[6] Loudwire named it at fifth in their list "Top 25 Progressive Metal Albums of All Time."[21] ThoughtCo also named Colors in their list "Essential Progressive Metal Albums."[22] Track listing All lyrics are written by Tommy Rogers; all music is composed by Between the Buried and Me No. Title Length 1.
