it's fun how everybody seem to think the mein-video is a joke. jonathan davis from korn said he was ashamed of the song "all in the family" after some time has passed (yeah, yeah he should be ashamed of all their songs), and perhaps it's time for the deftones to say that the mein was dumb. not if they still think it's great, but really, for how long can they sit in interviews with a straight face and talk seriously about this video, like it's a video like any other? chino boy band dancing in it. COME ON

i like s/t and snw alot but i'm not super proud of them like the first 3 and DE.

also fine, but s/t and snw are two completely different albums.
They wrongly get lumped together sometimes just because there was trouble in the band during those times.
"dark times bla bla" fine - but when you put them on, so far from each other musically.

Hexagram because it's the only time i like it when the band plays in one of their videos. It just makes sense. "Deftones! Deftones! Deftones!" And the crowd went wild.

Back to School because it's pretty cheesy, but somehow has a very 2000-ish atmosphere.

I have always felt "Back to School" was underrated....Cool vibe to me 8)

Minerva is a total beauty.. like a dream in the desert where sand fills your eyes and Deftones fills your ears! rock itttt!

hexagram is untouchable. best deftones video hands down. you forgot to put bloody cape on the list but that video is a steaming pile of doo doo turds.

hexagram really isn't that great a video, nothing happens but them playing with some "shaky" camera parts, an Chino looks dumb in that pink shirt. no real iconic or beautiful memorable shots. it's all very random with 0 creativity. bloody cape is alot better

hite and mein still with the double squadoosh, haha. they deserve what they're getting

Penicks

so bloody cape isn't very random? the fuck dude

it's got certain memorable images at least, and a bit of a story line. everyone checks out the same hot chick, it's actually well done

well if it's so memorable how come it got left off of this list? also hexagram is just such a high energy performance and shoot me, but i like performance videos. at least the bands aren't getting up their own ass too much and it's just the purest representation of a song. bloody cape just bores me to death. they all see some hot chick with a dog. that's it, that's all. the performance parts of the video save it. other than that i couldn't give less of a fuck. i know nobody will agree with me on this but i'd even take mein over the bloody cape video but at least i'd take bloody cape over the diamond eyes or sextape videos any day. just my opinion.

the same sound

Street Carp and Be Quiet and Drive; the only two i can actually sit and watch and thoroughly believe they're actually having fun shooting the video.
Then 7 Words because of Chino's dreads.


glassdomino

looks like i'm in agreement with most here.  Hexagram, Digital Bath, and YSTB all the fucking way

no fist to fuckin' save you from

Deftones-argentina

Street carp, by far. That's deftones image in my mind. Oh, that and minerva.

Hate I omitted "Street Carp" one of my faves!!

Looking at the Poll Results so far indicate that Deftones have not made a "good" video since 2003.

But one great one in 2010.

I really dont see whats so great about YSTB. Its not original by any means. At least 5 other bands have done a video with raining blood and countless more with hot girls surrounding them. YSTB is just combining them. I know the woman are there because the song is sex based, but the blood just doesnt fit.
