Deftones Tour: Live guide + video footage

[jaypayton]

white pony is 13 years old, they've been playing a majority of songs from that record every tour since then..i would say bury all the songs from that album and play more S/T and SNW....problem is the setlists are catered to all the new fans, so you get DE/KNY and all the singles...I await the tour that doesnt give a fuck about new fans and caters to the hardcore fan...but i think that tour happened in fall of 2004....and never again

Nosebleed's cool it's just the rap metalish stuff  like 7 word and Engine #9 that's been overdone ,those are my two least favourite adrenaline songs and I think alot of other people feel the same way about them it's like those are the two songs you grow out of on Adrenaline, the rest are timeless.

some of the best songs from Adrenaline and Around The Fur are full of the whole " rap metal " thing....
for more or less, most of their records that has been fan fav's that is the style the base of their fans like somewhat ( on record and live)..

WGTB ( which everyone creams over live) is just as rap/metal as 7 words
i hate that stigma with this band

but I agree that 7 words needs to be put down..cause when they play it ( except when they add the weezer cover) it seems they are just going through the motions..

It's not that Chino kind of raps in those songs it's that it's just constant the whole time there's no cool melody in those songs they're are more one dimensional then their other work where Chino's rapping is only one element of the song not the whole thing and it also looks kind of stupid seeing a 40yr sing a song he wrote as a angry teen even he doesn't like it. Also I'm interested how is WGTB rap metal?

Great set list but they only had like half of the albums they have now so there's not much room for covers and rarities which is a shame considering the quality of those other songs.

Also I'm interested how is WGTB rap metal?

hes rhyming to a beat with a heavy guitar over it until the chorus kicks?

lol man not saying its like 7 or birth but it has the same element just switched up ( IMO) shit birthmark has some pretty cool melodys and to me doesnt sound that "rap metalish " as you put it to me.

i see what youre saying though

and it also looks kind of stupid seeing a 40yr sing a song he wrote as a angry teen even he doesn't like it.

well a good % of Adrenaline is probably that...and to me it looks just as silly as doing some material off some other albums they do 

but hey..

[samson simpson]

ohh shit HIGH alert ..listening to birthmark and totally got your comment mixed with engine...lol

[Danny Keyes]

is it just me or do i hear chino's voice getting kinda "tired" in some of the new songs.

He's struggled to hit the high notes for a while now but apart from that he sounds good

Being a new fan doesnt mean you're not a hardcore fan, just means you had the misfortune of not hearing of them until later on. Like myself, I love KNY, but my favorite albums are WP and ST, I've only been a fan for 3 or 4 yrs, but they're my favorite band of all, and I wish I'd heard of them earlier so that I coulda seen them live during other eras, heard songs they dont play much now.

Eh, I think part of it is that DE and KNY are their two newest albums so they get more play now, but also the other part is their mindset. They said that SNW songs remind them of bad times they dont wanna relive, I assume the same about ST too, so perhaps that has something to do with it. 7 Words really needs to go though, even Chino is sick of it.

Chino is ill, has pneumonia so that's why he has trouble singing all the high notes etc...

Im currently uploading my footage of Diamond Eyes from Manchester to youtube, will post when uploaded.
Anything off DE is probably my least favourite, hence i didnt mind not dancing to those tracks and filming instead.
Not great quality, but i thought id share. Gimme about an hour haha

In my top 10 albums, Worship and tribute stacks up to #6 I'd say:

Deftones - Around the Fur
Dredg - El Cielo
Letlive. - Fake History
Tool - Lateralus
Earthtone9 - Arc'Tan'Gent
Glassjaw - W&T

For something completely different; awesome choice! Not people are aware of this great band and great record. Are you in (pledged) for their new record 'IV'?

Thanks man. Imported from the UK to my local record store over a decade ago and have been listening to them since. Such an incredible disc.

Have NOT actually pledged yet. I should do that.

You're welcome! Incredible album indeed.
And, from what I hear from the new disc, it's going to be a whole new level (https://soundcloud.com/earthtone9/march-of-the-yeti for instance, loads of clips on the pledgepage).
