Wow.
Well done, sir.
His work on ATF, WP, S/T and SNW is amazing. But DE?
HIS WORK ON DE!?!?!?!?!?!?!
This guy left his mark on this record.
Diamond Eyes is THE definite Frank record.
The sounds on every song. Stunning.
This man has always been the DT's hidden weapon.
I've never noticed much of Frank's effects till this album, so yup, I agree, definitely.
I can hear all of his stuff coming through as I listen to it more now. But he's all over SNW aswell.
i said it when i first i heard the album, im gonna say it again
franks best work
I agree, Frank's role in this record is stellar, he really stepped up this time. he might be the only "New metal" Dj worthy to be in a band. Okok, and maybe Kilmore...
ok well, SNW was Abe's and chi's record. Wp was chino' in my opinion. ATF was steph's.
His work is all over this album, he created a great atmosphere and vibe to every single song. Dark and amazing sounds.
Finally the credit the guy deserves.

Then you are more deaf than deftones
White Pony: Digital bath, RxQueen, Korea, Passenger
Deftones: Hexagram, Lucky you, Deathblow
SNW: Hole in the earth, Beware, Cherry Waves, Xerces, Combat
Come on LMAO ;D
Stef made the crickett sound on beware with his guitar
while Frank's work can be heard throughout every album since ATF, it's usually been nothing more than a few small effects and stuff you barely hear. it's simply been there and it's made the songs sound better. but this time around he's part of the riffs, adds his own melodies and really lifts the songs to entirely new places.
I'm impressed to say the least.
True he took the songs to a new level. all the song take you away to anothet place

I heard that too but I am pretty sure it is not true. If you listen to live stuff you can hear it is exactly the same as the album.
I dont think so. Not at all. I've listened to the album like 4 times and still can't find a very markable Frank sound. Sorry.
SNW is the Frank record, imo.
ps. no, I'm not def.
-kisses
BTW this is my thread.

I agree about snw being "the" frank record but his stuff always adds without taking center stage. I guarantee if he was not there you would really notice it.
dont forget the sounds he did on minus blindfold
And Fireal :)
Frannkz0r, how can you not hear all the 'frank sound' on this album?? ts on everysong
Frank's the man! loved his work on the self titled album,
CMND/CTRL is very clear, that bit where he does the expanding noise and then Steph comes in with the riff, then it breaks again with Frank, then Steph again. Awesome stuff!
"lets not start sucking each others dicks just yet"
you've seen the butcher has crazy frank
S/T was the frank record. he made it sound massive

Yea, I think it's Frank that creates that sound live, since Stef doesn't have a guitar on him in this video.

Also, Frank is the shiznit! I enjoy all the sounds that he contributes to the Deftones!

??? I was completely lying on that one i know that Stef couldnt make his guitar sound like crickets
The good thing about Frank's work on DE is that it's so consistent. It kind of ties the whole album together and gives it a theme.
Well, that's what I get anyways...

Totally agree!
Franks bits stand out more and more, I can hear him a shit load more than any other album.
I think this leak version is unfinished. Felt like layer of studio touches are missing.
I've yet to hear the new album.... But I feel that White Pony would not have been as amazing had Frank not been a full member on that one. (Since he was "part time" til then) The layers he put on that album really stand out to me. I mean imagine "Change" with out Franks kick ass "Whale noises" Lol. :)

Yeah or the haunting intro to Korea just as Stephs riff kicks in. Pink Maggit, Digital Bath, RX Queen, those songs would be pretty empty without Frank, without a doubt. I think this is why Diamond Eyes mirrors White Pony for a lot of people already.
Korea! :-) Wow I remember seeing them right when White Pony came out and them opening with that song. There was a huge red curtain with the logo on it covering the stage and then frank started fucking with all these cool samples. When the band broke in to it the curtain dropped. Lol. I love the shit Frank does live. In between songs and so on. He's very under rated in my opinion.
give the man deserved credits, no denial he always stands behind his board like a sack of nuts. moves absolutely zero bone this guy.
i wonder who makes the "wobbly" low melody in Prince verse.. is it keys? think thats gonna be next single btw.
does anyone have info and/or pics of Franks gear, his "pedalboard"?

Yea, it would be cool if someone knows all his specs that he has, or a picture of his complete live setup.
im curious to hear how franks role on eros differs. for some reason i think more frank on eros
IIRC, there some effects on nosebleed as well. But Frank's effects and keyboards are on every album and with each passing record he is more and more noticeable yet hes very subtle as well.
Frank is cool.
Frank's effects are my favorite part of the band's overall sound. The "Change" sample is my all-time favorite effect. I really like what he brings to the live element as well. Love that atmospheric soundscaping. It's pretty surreal IMO.

Yeah, it fits in so well and really contributes to their otherworldly kind of sound. I love the part on Digital Bath though with the...um...dripping/weird kinda sounds on it.

u missed minerva, rapture
No denying it - Frank is an integral part of the Deftones sound.
I love what he did on Diamond Eyes (the song).
Every time I hear it I love it more and more - I think it has a lot to do with Franks samples.
They're so haunting and fit so beautifully in the song.It gives the song so many extra layers without being in your face which is exactly what I think he is trying to achieve.
Of course there's loads more songs I could mention but this just stood out when I was listening to it last night.
I really agree that Frank has stepped up his game on Diamond Eyes. The one thing that irks me though is that he always adds stuff after all the rest of the music is made, if he wrote main synth parts and added atmospheric, subtle stuff behind it and THEN add the other instruments, it would sound fucking orgasmic. I really want to hear a song that's all Frank, and I don't mean like one same synth note like in the last verse of Rocket Skates and CMND/CTRL, I mean like a full song with melody

That could produce some really interesting results.
I think MX was his finest work.

lol I've been hear for years and I just HAVE to laugh, this phrase comes up after every album. I heard people say it after s/t, snw, now this one. Franks always been an important part of the band, even on adrenaline. They just let him 'shine through' a little more on this one, maybe b/c of the lack of chi?

what parts stand out in that? ive always wondered if he did anything with chinos weird track underneath the singing.
Quote from: Vesanic on Oct 16, 2010, 09:32 PM...
Hell yea he kills it on Fireal, everything from the intro to the weird acending and decsending chromatic notes behind the guitars. That song is an epic wall of noise.
BTW i love what he does on the bridge of Around the Fur....creepy/awesome. And the intro sound effect from BQUAD which i thought for years was Chino. And the "sparkly" effects on MOS. Ooh ooh and MINUS BLINDFOLD. All the members are integral...which reminds me...i like Sergio, but i really miss Chi :(
Just that fuzzy drowning/gurgling/laughing/screaming thing he does gets me err time. Makes the song so creepy.

Wow! deftones fans talking like there was no frank on adrenaline. Look at them go!
Love his shit on Rapture. Such an odd song.
Much meaning can be conveyed, clearly, with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.
Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at strangerburberry (http://www.eluxurys-store.com/burberry.html), but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.
The same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward other's stare with you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to avert his gaze, his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.
However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to timecoach (http://www.eluxurys-store.com/coach.html), in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.
If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to dominate you, you will feel disconcerted. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. Quite the contrary.
In fact, continuous eye contact is confined to lovers onlyhermes (http://www.eluxurys-store.com/hermes.html), who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express.
Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.

well, he didn't really get formally inaugurated into the group until after White Pony.
but i don't understand why people say he's so rude/mean or whatever.
he's really quite nice, i respect him a lot.

As a fan you should know he was on the first two records .As a fan you shoulda bought adrenaline on CD where it clearly says Frank Delgado is on the motherfucker

Yes back to school i guess ;)
I think Frank's job on Diamond Eyes is by far his best work. Both his background effects and in his more prominent sounds.Makes you wonder how he sounded on Eros.
