Free Music Notes for Deftones
Free Music Review: Brutality at its best!
Hit: 5 Stars
I'll start by saying that the Deftones never fail to amaze me, they simply cannot release a bad album! However, when their self-titled album was released back in 2003 I was surprisingly a little disappointed. Having just come off their epic opus White Pony and prior to that Around the Fur, the ST album just didn't seem to match up. It was by no means shelved early but earlier then the previous three albums.
Forward a few years later and after not listening to the album for maybe a year or so decided to toss it in again. I was amazed!! When listening to and measuring it on its own, compared to against WP and ATF, it really is a kick arse album! Starting with the raw and angry Hexagram and continuing with a heavier and rawer feel then WP, the ST is just pure Deftones anger!! Minus for Lucky which continues with Chino having to add a electronic, Depeche Mode style song as they did with Teenager on WP. If they had yanked this tune and replaced it "Lovers", a track left of the ST it would have made this album that much better!
Highlights include Hexagram, Pins and Needles, Good Morning Beautiful, When Girls Telephone Boys, Battle-axe and Bloody Cape.
Could it be that Deftones albums get better with age? I wouldn't put it past them to accomplish this.
Deftones Poster
While alt/nu/rap-metal typically bounds between two emotional poles--pissed-off and extremely pissed-off--and a musical range to match, the Deftones continue to push the genre's narrow boundaries outward on their fourth big-label release. Mic man Chino Moreno's patent yowl belies a range of emotion rare in the genus, while guitarist Stephen Carpenter seasons his buzz-saw assault with some industrial-strength riff textures and mixer Frank Delgado's spooky, synthetic textures further underscore Moreno's blossoming lyrical impressionism. If they stray uncomfortably close to jagged-rhythms formula in the album's opening quarter, the almost sunny sensuality of "Good Morning Beautiful" heralds some welcome shafts of light amidst the storm clouds. From there on, the mood drifts from languor ("Deathblow") to brooding ("Battle-axe," "Lucky You"), while "Bloody Cape" edges the band ever closer to traditional pop hooks before drifting into the resigned, psych-torpor of "Anniversary of an Uninteresting Event." A compelling and encouraging album--even if it's taken them 15 years to get this far. Enhanced CD features include studio and day-in-the-life-of band video footage, as well as 150 candid photos. --Jerry McCulleyThe band's self-titled fourth album, as erotic as it is brutal, as relentless as it is gentle, rockets the Grammy-winning Deftones to the top of modern rock. Features 11 tracks, including the single 'Minerva' along with a 20-page color booklet, enhanced material with 20 minutes of exclusive video footage from inside the studio & a day in the life of each band member plus 150 candid photos. Maverick. 2003.
