Deftones Bullshit Thread

[RoyBiggins]

At the end of the When Girls Telephone Boys and Needles and Pins, there is some insane screaming that is faded out. Is there any way I manipulate the ending of those songs as to where they don't fade, like some kind of program.

Remember Maverick not making actual singles (on disc) anymore.

Isn't maverick no longer around.

[DeftonesNZ]

Yeah i think it got bought out by warner

Just to verify; there are only digital versions of the 'Sextape' and 'You've Seen The Butcher' singles right?

There's two versions of a 'You've Seen the Butcher' single. One is a US version in a jewel case with back cover art only and the other is a one track UK version (comes in a card sleeve I believe). There's also a UK 1 track CD single of 'Sextape'. Hope that helps.

you can tell from just by hearing Adrenaline that they weren't just another nu-metal band

what do you mean by "they weren't just another nu-metal band" ? it sounds by you that there were a lot of nu metal bands in 1995? deftones were pioneers, they started this shit (with korn)

Yeah I meant looking back on that whole era even their most raw record still had a mix of softer and harder elements ,I don't think Deftones are even nu-metal in the sense it was used by media i just can't agree with a genre that groups together "Limp Bizkit " with guys like Deftones who are making real unique, dynamic music.

I dont hate the term Nu-metal like a lot of people do, they immediately think Limp Bizkit and Korn

but to me that term was apt because at the time it was a new sound of metal that wasn't solo driven and obnoxious; it was more focused on heaviness with a groove to it and singers were beginning to scream consistantly, it was in a way a 'new metal'

but somewhere along the way nu-metal got comfused with rap-metal/rap-rock

I dont think they are the same thing...

[DeftonesNZ]

Exactly at some point ignorant people just started  calling any music with metal type guitars nu-metal a lot of people then just played nu-metal off as a joke because of the bands like Limp Bizkit

Has anyone else ever come across this old rumour that Chino cheated on his last wife and got another girl pregnant? Whats that all about?

ahahahhahaha that is fucking funny

[DeftonesNZ]

I think it's well known that he cheated never anything about getting a chick pregnant it's probably bullshit

[sooniletugo]

I'm not suggesting its legit, just saw somebody ranting about it on a site then googled it and found more results talking about it.

[kurtone]

In the revolver article when SNW came out it mentions his "girlfriend on the side" getting  preggo and that added to his stress

[mr.sinister]

Isn't his girlfriend now his wife?

[DeftonesNZ]

He's only got two boys as far as I know and I think their too old I'm pretty sure they're both teens now like 14 and 18 or something like that

[laurapalmer]

He's got a girl too, not sure how old she is. Probably 5 or so.

Thanks, does help!
In the end I just bought the digital versions, seeing how I couldn't find any hardcopies anywhere.

i was bored and messing around with photoshop, i had no idea or direction of what i was going to do. i just opened photoshop and typed out 'deftones' and went from there.

[sooniletugo]

Awesome.

Chino Moreno - Hates Linkin Park, Fred Durst, Breakfast Club, The Terminator and Easy Access Baby

2:06 anyone know what song Chino feels Linkin Park ripped off?

[deftoolsys07]

Haha awesome, I was there at that show where he picks up the glasses and does the terminator thing.. travelled to OKC...

[DeftonesNZ]

I've seen people say Papercut and My Own Summer but I don't think Chino's every actually said which one it is,I don't really see it though
