''[[Alternative Press (music magazine)|Alternative Press]]'', August, 2000.</ref> After a break from touring, the band spent four months in the studio writing and recording ''White Pony'', the longest amount of time they had dedicated to an album thus far. 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 were the band began working as a group. Despite being pressured to release the album sooner, the band decided to take their time making the album.

Moreno did not have common theme in mind lyrically, but made a conscious decision to bring an element of fantasy into his lyrics, explaining that "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."

Deftones

Deftones are a Grammy award winning band from Sacramento, California consisting of Stephen Carpenter (guitar), Chino Moreno (vocals/guitar), Abe Cunningham (drums), Chi Cheng (bass) and Frank Delgado (turntables/keyboard/samples). Deftones have a diverse sound that has been described as ranging from alternative metal and dream pop[1] to progressive[2] and experimental rock.[3]

Critics have often praised them as one of the more unique rock bands of recent years for their innovative, atmospheric music; as Johnny Loftus writes, "Rock critics usually reserve a special place for Deftones above or at least away from the rest of the turn-of-the-century metal movement [...] Deftones have always seemed more curious, more willing to incorporate traditionally revered sounds like dream pop or D.C. hardcore into their northern California alt-metal."[4]

Moreno's poetic lyrics—described by a TIME magazine critic as "suggesting emotions rather than announcing them"[5] —are often evocative, yet sparse enough to allow for multiple interpretations. Moreno has cited Morrissey, Weezer's Rivers Cuomo, The Cure's Robert Smith, Bad Brains' H.R., and Depeche Mode's David Gahan among his favorite singers, and, beyond an occasional similarity in vocal technique, these singers' sweeping sense of drama is often evident in Moreno's vocals.

Band history

Early years

When Carpenter was sixteen years old, he was confined to a wheelchair for several months after being hit by a car while skateboarding. It was during this time that he began to teach himself how to play guitar by playing along to Anthrax, S.O.D. and Metallica.[6] It has been reported that the driver paid Carpenter a cash settlement that afforded him equipment to start a band,[1][6][7] but drummer Abe Cunningham commented in an interview that this was "a myth about how our band was started."[8]

Carpenter, Moreno and Cunningham went to same high school and otherwise knew each other as childhood friends and through the skateboarding scene in Sacramento.[6] When Moreno found out Carpenter played guitar, he set up a jam session with Cunningham and the three began playing regularly in Carpenter's garage circa 1988. After playing with several bassists, the band settled on Chi Cheng and had soon recorded a four track demo.[6] Within two years the band had begun playing club shows and later expanded their playing territory to San Francisco and Los Angeles playing shows alongside bands such as Korn.[7][9] While closing for another band in L.A. after the majority of the audience had left, the band impressed a Maverick Records representive and were soon after signed to the label after showcasing three of their songs for Freddy DeMann and Guy Oseary.[9][7]

The name "Deftones" was made up by Carpenter who wanted to pick "something that would just stand out but you know, not be all cheese-ball at the same time."[10] Carpenter combined the hip hop slang term "def", which was used by artists he listened to such as LL Cool J and Public Enemy, with the suffix "-tones", which was a popular suffix among 50s bands whose music he enjoyed. Carpenter said the name is also intentionally vague to reflect the band's tendency to not focus on just one style of music.[10]

Adrenaline (1995)

Template:Sound sample box align right Template:Sample box end The band's debut album Adrenaline was recorded at Bad Animals Studio in Seattle, Washington and released on October 3, 1995. It was produced by Deftones and Terry Date, who would go on to produce the band's next three albums. Initially unsuccessful, extensive touring, word-of-mouth and Internet promotion built the band a dedicated fanbase, as well as helping Adrenaline to sell over 220,000 copies without the singles "7 Words" and "Bored" (as well as their music videos) receiving any airplay.[1][11] The band contributed the non-album track "Teething" to the soundtrack for the 1996 film The Crow: City of Angels and are also seen performing the song live during one of the film's scenes.

The album spent 21 weeks on the Billboard Heatseekers chart reaching a peak position of 23.[12] When asked what he attributed the album's success to, Cheng responded: "One word: perseverance. We've been together for almost eight years, on the road for two and we do it with honesty and integrity - and the kids can tell."[13] The album was RIAA certified gold on 7 July, 1999 in recognition of 500,000 units sold.[14]

Regarding the recording of the album, Abe Cunningham said, "At the time we did the first record - which I really like and think is good - you can tell the band was really young. We'd been playing most of those songs for quite a while, and we were just so happy to be making a record that we didn't really think a whole lot about making the songs better."[15] Moreno felt that Adrenaline was recorded "really fast"[16] and performed all his vocals live with the band in the room using a hand-held Shure 58 microphone.[17] A review of Adrenaline praised the album's musical control and precision, overall groove and Cunningham's "surprisingly sophisticated drumming" but also felt that "there is a bit of sameness in Chino Moreno's whispered vocal melodies, which drags the record down a bit."[18]

Around the Fur (1997)

Deftones' second album Around the Fur was recorded at Studio Litho in Seattle, Washington and produced by Terry Date. Released on October 26, 1997, the album included a collaboration with singer Max Cavalera (of Sepultura/Soulfly) on "Headup", a tribute to Cavalera's late stepson Dana Wells, to whom the album was also dedicated.[19] Although not yet a member of the band, Delgado is credited as "audio" on five of the album's tracks, and Cunningham's wife, Annalynn, provides guest vocals on "MX". Template:Sound sample box align right

Template:Sample box end "When we went in to make this record, we really didn't have a set idea of what we wanted to come out with," said Moreno in a 1998 interview with Chart magazine. 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 Terry Date and giving more thought to the album's production. Cunningham varied his drum sound and experimented by using different types of snare drum on almost every track.[15] 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 Cheng and Cunningham.[16][20][21] Stephen Thomas Erlewine's review noted that "while they don't have catchy riffs or a fully developed sound, Around the Fur suggests they're about to come into their own."[22]

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)".[1] Around the Fur sold 39,000 copies in its first week of release, and entered the Billboard 200 at number 29 (its peak position), remaining on the charts for 17 weeks.[21][23] The band went back to touring, making appearances at the Warped Tour, Pinkpop, Roskilde Festival and Ozzfest as well as releasing a live EP on June 22, 1999. Around the Fur went on to reach RIAA gold status on June 24, 1999.[14]

White Pony (2000)

On June 20, 2000, the band released their third album, White Pony, again produced by Terry Date and Deftones. It was recorded at The Plant Studios in Sausalito, California and at Larrabee Sound Studios, West Hollywood, California. The album debuted at number three in the US Billboard chart with sales of 178,000 copies.[24] Delgado was now a full-time band member, adding new elements to the band's music. "Teenager", for example, incorporates elements of glitch and trip hop, with programming duties carried out by Moreno's friend and side-project Team Sleep bandmate DJ Crook. A collaboration with singer Maynard James Keenan of Tool is present on "Passenger", and the refrain in "Knife Prty" features vocals by Rodleen Getsic.

Moreno performing vocals and guitar live in June 2006. Moreno has been credited as contributing guitar from White Pony onwards.

An interview with the band in Alternative Press explained the recording process of White Pony.[25] After a break from touring, the band spent four months in the studio writing and recording White Pony, the longest amount of time they had dedicated to an album thus far. 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 were the band began working as a group. Despite being pressured to release the album sooner, the band decided to take their time making the album. Cheng explained that "We didn’t feel like we had anything to lose, so we made the record we wanted to make." Moreno did not have common theme in mind lyrically, but made a conscious decision to bring an element of fantasy into his lyrics, explaining that "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."

Reviews were generally positive, noting Moreno's increasing sophistication as a lyricist and the group's experimentalism.[26] Of White Pony, one reviewer wrote that "Deftones went soft, but in an impressive way, to twist around its signature punk sound."[27] Although the album's diversity garnered lots of praise, one review also noted that the album had an "inability to really sink into any particular groove long enough to taste it."[28] A particularly negative review from Select (magazine) said "Maybe when they abandon their arrested development and stop convincing themselves the world is aligned specifically for their personal displeasure, they'll arrive at something listenable."[26]

A limited edition print of 50,000 black and red jewel case versions of White Pony were released with a bonus 12th track titled "The Boy's Republic". The band recorded "Back to School (Mini Maggit)", a rap-influenced interpretation of the album's closer, "Pink Maggit", at the request of Maverick Records. The song was picked up as a single and placed as the new opening track (with "Pink Maggit" still the closer) of a re-released White Pony on October 3, 2000 featuring altered cover art. Not entirely happy with re-releasing the album, the band negotiated to have "Back to School" made available as a free download for anyone who had already bought the original album. Chino noted that "Everybody's already downloaded our record before it came out anyway, otherwise I'd be kind of feelin' like, 'Man, why [are] we putting [out] all these different versions of the record?' [...] that's the best way we can actually get this song out to the people who already purchased this record, for free basically. And if they wanna buy the record again, it's cool."[29]

White Pony eventually achieved platinum status,[14] selling over 1.06 million copies[24] and earning the band a 2000 Grammy award for Best Metal Performance for the song "Elite".[30]

Deftones (2003)

Deftones was released on May 20, 2003, entering the Billboard 200 at number two and selling 167,000 copies in the first week.[24] Deftones remained in the Billboard top 100 for nine weeks, supported by the first single, "Minerva".[31] The track was featured in the video games NHL 2004 and True Crime: Streets of L.A..

Later, the band shot a video for their second single, "Hexagram", with fans watching the band play the song in an indoor skatepark in Simi Valley, California. The band made a video for the track "Bloody Cape", but it was never released for play on television. The video was only made available on the band's official website for one day. It was later released on their B-Sides and Rarities DVD.

Much of the material on the album was written by guitarist Carpenter, which accounts for the album's heavier feel. Delgado plays synthesizer, keyboards or sampler rather than his previous turntables. The recording sessions were helmed by producers Terry Date and Greg Wells for the first four months in Sacramento and then Seattle. Wells had to return to Los Angeles due to the birth of his second child, and Date continued on the record for months. Wells later produced much of Team Sleep's debut record.

In reviewing Deftones Stephen Thomas Erlewine writes that "Hexagram", the album's opener, "hits hard — harder than they ever have, revealing how mushy Staind is, or how toothless Linkin Park is."[32] Erlewine goes on to note that "Deftones feel compelled to strengthen their metal roots" and at the same time maintain "the very things that make them better and more interesting than the rest — namely, their love of art rock, whether it's via The Cure or My Bloody Valentine." He closes by writing, "When they do play by the rules, they're good, but they're great when they don't follow a map."

Another review, by Rolling Stone's Greg Kot states, "Singer Chino Moreno sounds like he's conversing with a choir of voices inside his troubled skull. He's the most Dada of the metal screamers: sobbing, stoned and strangely sensual, when he isn't shredding his tonsils. The band brings the requisite brutality, but this album delivers chills when it creeps past the margins of modern post-Korn heavy music: the spooky spaghetti-western drones that hover like vultures over "Deathblow", the space-is-the-place liftoff of 'Minerva' and the ambient doomscape "Lucky You", which might be worth an approving smirk from the Aphex Twin."[33]

As of January 2007 it had sold 520,900 copies in America.[citation needed]

B-Sides & Rarities (2005)

An odds-and-ends album titled B-Sides & Rarities was released on October 4, 2005.

The CD includes various 'B-Side' songs and covers, while the DVD contains behind-the-scenes footage and every music video the band has made. This compilation includes a semi-rough cover of "Savory" originally done by Jawbox, a cover of "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, and "Black Moon" featuring B-Real from Cypress Hill, among others.

Saturday Night Wrist (2006)

Deftones performing live in Glasgow, June 2006.

The band's latest album, titled Saturday Night Wrist, was released on October 31, 2006. It debuted at number ten in the US Billboard chart with sales of just over 76,000,[34] a significant decrease on the first week sales of their two previous releases.

Rather than work with longtime producer Terry Date, Deftones decided to record with Bob Ezrin. Cunningham says that while the group enjoyed working with Date, "At this point, we just needed to change things up [...] And this is definitely a different style. Working with him [Ezrin] is just putting us fucking upside down. He's cracking the whip."[35] After recording all the instrumentals for the record, Chino Moreno decided to record his vocals separately. Chino thus finished recording the album with former Far guitarist Shaun Lopez as producer. Collaborations on the record include Annie Hardy from Giant Drag on the song "Pink Cellphone" and Serj Tankian from System of a Down on the track "Mein".

The album's first single was called "Hole in the Earth", hitting the radio on October 16, 2006.

A music video for "Mein" has been shot, as it was the album's second single in Spring 2007.

As of March 2007, Saturday Night Wrist has sold over 250,000 copies (US).[citation needed]

Upcoming release

Deftones are currently in the studio writing/recording their upcoming release. Moreno stated in an interview that the process for this album would be more raw and simplified after dissatisfaction with the long and "pieced-together" experience of recording Saturday Night Wrist.[36]

Other projects

Deftones members have worked on several side projects, including Moreno's Team Sleep and Cunningam's Phallucy. Guitarist Carpenter works with a group called Kush, featuring members of Fear Factory and Cypress Hill as well as a group called Sol Invicto featuring members of Cypress Hill and Cultura Londres. The Deftones' Frank Delgado has a DJ crew with DJ Crook of Team Sleep, DJ Julez and Matt D Called Decibel Devils. In 2000, Bassist Chi Cheng released a CD comprised of his own spoken word poetry. They have also appeared in several concerts in the 2006 Taste of Chaos tour
