Title: Bored

Album: Adrenaline

Music Video:  Link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WdYo3WlETY

Fun Facts:

* The early working title for Bored was *Oraled*

* Terry Date (Adrenaline producer) : The bass was recorded live. We used a Shure SM57 right in front of the cabinet and put a DI on it - like most people do. I don't get too fancy with microphones, I more try to build a character sound from the instrument. We used floor monitors for everyone except Abe. We started with the bass in between the guitar and drums. Chino's voice has a lot of character, and he is able to change it. A lot of it has to do with the way he cups the mike. He uses his hand over the mic in different positions to get different sounds. I got him to use the mic as an instrument. I always do vocals on an SM58, which is a calculated decision since most of the bands I work with have careers that are 90 percent live work with '58's. Chino destroyed that microphone during recording - threw it around, spit in it. We used that same mike for the whole track and I gave it to him afterwards. I compressed the vocal really hard so that when he is singing, the voice sounds louder and the background noise disappears. These guys are incredibly focused on what they are doing and they love what they are doing, so it was really fun.

* It's evident that Stef uses to different color guitars in the video. First he uses a goldish color ESP, and towards the end he uses a black ESP w/a sticker that says "PERVERT".

* During the last two chorus if you listen closely you can hear Chi singing in the background. Listen between 3':14" - 3":17" to hear an example. 

* These are Stef's words: "We wrote 'Bored' in half an hour - it came out of nowhere!"

* After 'Adrenaline' came out in 1995, Chino commented the recording of 'Bored'. This is what he said:
"Sometimes I'd be in the studio and get frustrated. I think it was on "Bored," that part where it comes in with 'GET BORED.' That part, I could not do. I couldn't come in at the right time. I was just so out of it. I was trying to fix that pat because it just didn't sound right. I was trippin' and just about crying. I was like, 'I cant' do this Terry, I can't do it!' He was like, "It's cool, you can do it. If you want, go home and chill and we'll do it tomorrow." He didn't let me get too frustrated after that. I wanted to quit a couple of times, just because I was so frickin'... nervous. I felt like I was failing sometimes."

* If you didn't know you'll know now that Chino Moreno is a huge fan of 'Star Wars'. On the "Bored" video at the beginning it shows a shot of Chino standing in his house. Above him is a picture or something of "C3PO" (a character in Star Wars)

* This is the second single from Adrenaline. The live part of the video was shot at this abandoned warehouse in Sacramento where a lot of bands like to jam. The rest of the video shows the band hanging around Sacramento and at Chino's house, Stef and Chi riding their bikes, Chino skating and playing basketball, and Abe talking on the phone. The basketball Chino plays with in the video is one he had since he was a kid and loves to play with. In the video you can see members of Willhaven and Socialistiks, Dave and Jacoby from Papa Roach, and Chino's wife. A guy I know that was at this video said that basically friends and fans of the band came up to the wherehouse to watch them play, they were all playing unplugged to a tape of the song, except Abe of course. The event was catered by Pescado's fish tacos. And after the video was over, Stef was giving away 'Deftones Dickies' shirts cause they couldn't sell them anymore cause of copyright reasons.

I never noticed C3PO before. At 1:12 in the video you can see someone wrote "GO VEGAN" on the ceiling. Chi maybe?
