first album "Adrenaline", bulb syringe



"Around the Fur" down angle of chick sitting by pool



"White Pony" ...a white pony..with grey background...



self titled album, a skull with red and blue roses around it



"Saturday Night Wrist" another chick (high or maybe in mid coitus?) looks like it could be the same chick from around the fur album cover?



"Diamond Eyes" a white barn owl




So given the previous album covers I think this is one of the cooler looking ones. I liked the SNW album cover too. The worst by far is Adrenaline..come on a bulb syringe? (note i'm only talking about the album cover, as adrenaline is probably my favorite deftones album) I always look at that and think whoever made the album art was too much of a pussy to have an actual syringe on it so they put a bulb syringe, maybe? idk...anyway compared to adrenaline and white pony, Diamond eyes is a great album cover, and I think the white barn owl looks awesome with its expressionless face. Although the raven album cover that was posted earlier looks pretty badass too.

expressionless actually fits with its sound as well

"I don't like listening to people's problems -- I like music. Music has been smothered with that complaining since the early-'90s. It gets old. Instead of going to the opposite side of the spectrum and listening to The Black Eyed Peas, which is just straight silly, I choose to listen to more instrumental music. I do very little singing about myself on this record. I love songs where I can totally take myself out of being human. I can sing about really odd things, and they don't necessarily have to pertain to me at all. It paints a picture. Those are the kind of lyrics I grew up with -- like The Cure. Really visual images and no storytelling." —Chino Moreno

the bulb syringe makes sense as it's used to clean out ear wax and shit, it's kind of like saying the album is fuckin loud and heavy by using a very simple cover. i like it. the girl on the SNW cover is from a 70's lesbian porn flick, not the ATF cover..
Check out my soundcloud/ facebook page with some music...

Diamond Eyes is one of the most beautiful album covers ive ever seen. Best Tones album cover imo.

Yeah I thought about that too (regarding the bulb syringe) and you are right it does make sense. Only reason I said what I said was they have songs that specifically reference shooting up. That is funny about the SNW cover I didn't know that, I asked this question (is it the same chick and who are they) on Yahoo Answers and got no answers.

To me it was this cool cover with the silver writing and didn't really concentrate on it too much... I was in wonder for years about what that thing was!

The girl is Uschi Digard or Misty Mundae, the film is Roxanna. hard to tell which version it's from... or it could be both.
never odd or even
