Does anyone agree with me that Deftones need to do a double album at some point in their career? Maybe the final one?

i'm not against that idea but a double album seems extremely difficult to produce. i wouldn't mind a first heavy part then a second more experimental/unorthodox one though

The Ocean pulled it off with Precambrian. But yeah, I don't think it would work for Deftones

they need a fucking new official dvd
yes indeed. I want a legit dvd, with performances, backstage footage, interviews, maybe some footage of them dicking around in the cities they play in.. shit like that.

I think they could pull it off. I definitely wouldn't be against it.
Double the Tones, Double the Fun

I could see them releasing Eros as a companion disc to a future album.

Wouldn't you consider White Pony to be their most commercial as it is their best selling album?  For me the transition from ATF to WP was extremely jarring and I just could not get into it for awhile.  It was only after S/T came out that I realized what a great record it is. 

I can't ever decide how to rank their albums.  I never know where to put adrenaline.  It holds a special place as the first album, but unlike so many other bands, Deftones managed to exceed that first album multiple times. 

Oddly I feel like White Pony is the most realized version of their current sound.  ATF stands out to me because it seems to be in a class by itself.  With S/T and SNW, I think they were trying to capture the essence of both records (ATF and WP) and as a result both those albums are somewhat disjointed in my opinion.  DE was a good step in the direction of a cohesive album but still feels like it was lacking something.  I'm hoping that KNY will join ATF and WP at the top.

I feel it... But Deftones have always been somewhat of a polarizing band in terms of a signature sound. You can't really say this album "sounds like Deftones" or this album "doesn't sound like Deftones" but that's what makes them different and great. WP/ATF might be the closest they've ever come to a fully realized sound, but that's not to discredit the albums to follow either. Each are unique and distinctive... Adrenaline: Raw, hard-edged... ATF: Heavy... WP: Smooth... S/T: Dark... SNW: Diverse... DE: Clean-cut... Seems like KNY is going for a glossier, more anthemic sound, and that is something I can appreciate.

OH MY GOD, SOMEONE GIVE US THE FUCKING ALBUM..THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS

It would probably take a long time and have a lot of fillers. But if they had a good and interesting concept, I would rather would rather have a double album of two EP's with clear contrasts in music style and ideas. (Something like Thrice Alchemy Index)

I wouldnt be against the idea at all, in fact two of my fave albums are double LPs in Nine Inch Nails - Fragile and Wu Tangs - Forever, and looking forward to Biffy Clyros double cd due in January.

BUT i know some people didnt like the two albums mentioned above because of "Filler" tracks, IMO i thought they were excellent, and as someone posted above, More 'Tones the better

I wouldn't count on a double album from any band whose longest record is 12 songs

Yeah, and the Beauty School video proves that OBVIOUSLY they got folks following them around filming them and shit. That video was just compiled from tour footage..

Agreed.  Its baffling to me that they've never put out any kind of official live material.  I want a Deftones version of Pantera's 3:Watch it Go

I think you are completely right.  That's probably why I have a hard time ranking them.  I like them all in their own way, but because each record is so different its hard to make a lot of blanket statements about which one is better.  Everyone has their favorites for sure

I really feel like the deftones wont release Eros unless Chi passes or comes back... and I have a feeling a lot of people are gonna be disappointed in it... the deftones were in a real weird point for a lot of years between ST and SNW through to Eros, the accident with Chi was a big loss but the addition of sergio also really galvanized them Chino especially it seems, you could see he physically transformed himself and was re-energized

I don't ever see them doing a double disc release unless Eros is one half of it, they dont write that many songs in studio typically to do something like that
