"uggh" ? don't try to affect the voters! ;)

i think ytsb is the best one yet,followed by the adrenaline videos - those are the ones i can watch with a happy face.but i gotta say - deftones as a band has little to do with a video. yes, they are in them, but thats about it- they do what they are told to do more or less. The idea of the video, the work,the directing and the filming is someone else's job and final product.

to rate the videos are more a match between directors i think. i mean deftones writes music and performs live. that's what they do and should be judged by. these videos are very much the record companies way to advertise the band.so it's more a matter of if the advertisers have done a good job or not. when I see deftones play on tv, I'm not going "oh deftones play music for me!"  it's more of  "here's a company trying to sell me a product". are these products good or not?  pick your vote

i thought hexagram was a pretty mediocre video, i'm not gettin the craze about it. more of that SL s/t obsession. i did like the minerva and bloody cape videos alot though. hexagram not so much

Hexagram is the best example of how wild they could go live at that time. Yeah, you gotta love S/T to death to get it.

?  if someone likes a video from s/t and you don't,  that's "obsession" in a negative way.
but if someone likes a video from s/t and you do too, it's no longer "obsession", that's just ok with you.

i thought 03 was when they started slippin live. less effort and energy. the start of the 6 year cloud over their heads, the darks days. i didn't much enjoy the 2003 they had. i think Chino had a bit of writers block on s/t. maybe cause the record company screwed his head up trying to get him to write hits, making him go somewhat blank.i like s/t and snw alot but i'm not super proud of them like the first 3 and DE.

obsession is the massive cult following this board has for the s/t album. it's just way out of the norm. like they all came here together for that purpose/common ground. i know they didn't but it's just odd, it's not a real high point for most deftones fans worldwide. it's still good, just a huge disappointment to most

ok, but I had problems with your line of reasoning, had really no question about if you like s/t or not. its ok for people to like a video from st if you like it, but if you dont, they are obsessed. thats just weird

Change - first video i saw. and i can watch still this again and again.
Digital Bath - great scenes from tour, great montage.
Hexagram - like V said: "is the best example of how wild they could go live at that time"
and if i can choose one more that will be YSTB :)

but those are your words, not mine. don't speak for me. and obsession probably isn't a great choice of words, but there's definitely a way larger than normal group of s/t diehards here. seems like there's about 30 qeople here who share the exact same opinions almost everytime, the s/t cult

still.... you said nothing about sl obsession when you talked about minerva and bloody cape because you like 'em videos, but as soon as it was a video you didn't like (hexagram) you talked patronizing about it. but it's ok, i know your type, will never admit you're wrong no matter how obvious it is :)

that's because the SL obsession doesn't just revolve around 1 video, and that's obviously not what i was basing the obsession on. the obsession is a whole. i figured you could comprehend that
