Following up White Pony was no easy task.  Let's face it: this album didn't surpass WP.  However, it is chalk full of some incredible songs.  Anniversary is one of the Deftones masterpieces.  What other metal band can create such a tender, enthralling composition?  Few come to mind.  But to me the real gem of the album is WGTB.  It's brutal and delicate at the same time.  And the lyrics are top notch.  I love Minerva too, such a beautiful song.  Absolutely epic.  Lastly, Hexagram is a real head trip.  It's decades ahead of its time.  How they came up with that song is beyond me.  The rhythm, lyrics, time changes, and sequencing are progressive, riveting, and explosive.  Yea it's a goooooooooood album!

Good? Great, I love every note on this CD. I've listened to it a million times. I would never disagree with anything anyone has said in this topic, everyone has their own opinion but I choose Needles and Pins. I love this song. Every time I hear it I know exactly what the lyrics are about and if you were in a relationship this volitile you would too.

LOL at this album being over-rated. White Pony is the over-rated Deftones album. In fact when I first joined this board, it seemed I was one of the few people who thought S/T was their best album. It's only recently that people have started to realise just how good it really is...

Battle-Axe and When Girls Telephone Boys.

I never over rated White Pony.

I think it's the best album from the guys.

The self-titled is an amazing shit, too.

I've been here almost four years now.  In that time, I would say the ranking by the members would go something like this:

ATF>S/T>WP>Adrenaline>SNW

Mine is:

WP>Adrenaline>ATF>SNW>S/T

Yeah Hexagram's good too if I'm in the mood for it...a very well written song, but Chino should've toned down the screaming, just so that he doesn't damage his throat everytime they play it live lol... heaviest Deftones album opening track, ever

my rate:
ATF > S/T > Adrenaline > WP > SNW (because of Pink cellphone)
from S/T i NEVER skip a song, NEVER!!! I wish Lovers would be on my CD... I would choose Lovers instead of WGTB but since its not in the album i have, i had to choose WGTB... but EVERY single song in THIS ALBUM is a jewel!

Yes yes, Deftones, yes yes, heavy metal, yes yes, nü metal, yes yes, fucking queer, yes yes...
