Maynard James Keenan HELPS Deftones
Passenger Deftones Maynard James Keenan
Maynard James Keenan, which you might recognize as the front-man of the popular industrial metal band Tool, had been hanging out with Deftones singer Chino Moreno and was invited to work on White Pony as an executive producer. The band were interested in bringing in a fresh perspective to help them navigate some difficulties they were having while writing the album. Rather than come in and take over the project with his years of musical experience and expertise, Maynard instead played a role more similar to that of a spiritual mentor. Bringing bottles of champagne and Tibetan Singing Bowls to the studio to shake things up. He also made the band perform using different instruments in an attempt to stir their creativity and break them out of their respective ruts."I was told the guys were having a bit of writer's block or some turmoil within the band. Who knows? They certainly weren't going to discuss that with me, an almost total stranger... very strong-willed gents. Dare I say stubborn... Up to that point, they seemed to have been able to navigate through their differences in ideas and approaches. Great first efforts. The evidence is all there. I felt like they just needed a bit of new perspective.I had them each switch instruments, play on the bowls, take one loop and try some improvisation... The look on their faces was priceless. I might as well have been wearing hippie beads and bunny ears. I could just feel Stephen thinking, 'What kind of acid-trip crap is this?'""I stuck around long enough for them to start itching to not have me around... Eventually, it was time for me to let them be. The result of my interruption was for them to unconsciously remember or feel what connected them in the first place. By the time I saw them again, they had opened their own creative floodgates." - Keenan, Inside Deftones Game-Changing Alt-Metal Masterpiece, Steve Appleford, Revolver (Nov 23, 2020) - https://www.revolvermag.com/music/white-pony-inside-deftones-game-changing-alt-metal-masterpiece
