Deftones — Saturday Night Wrist

in

Fans expecting a return to the Deftones' heavier days will have to keep waiting, as Saturday Night Wrist offers the band's softest material to date. The album is mostly comprised of melancholic dirges and dreamy, electronic fluff that's far closer to frontman Chino Moreno's Team Sleep side project than Deftones' more metal-oriented past. In fact,...

Screamo fans had a great way to kick off the long weekend last Thursday when the second annual Taste Of Chaos tour made its way to Arrow Hall for one of the last dates on the trek. Though co-headliners Thursday announced earlier in the week that they were not going to perform, the venue was still packed with sweaty teenagers whose T-shirts gave...

This rarities compilation showcases the group's eclectic influences, featuring...

By Debbie Bento (CHARTattack) May 20, 2003 9:40 am
The masters of moody metal are back with their fourth release. This self-titled album makes a slight turn in the road away from their last record, the Grammy-winning White Pony. It isn't as creepy as the last, the band's lyrics are getting more poetic and they're still trying their hand at creating moods that aren't what you'd necessarily expect....

Video Of The Day: Deftones' "You've Seen The Butcher"

Deftones are playing in a library in their video for Diamond Eyes' "You've Seen The Butcher" and are promptly joined by tons of women jumping around in their underwear. The whole thing is already weird enough, but then it takes an even further bizarre turn when everyone ends up covered in water and flying blood. I have to admit that I would...

I'm not at all sure what prompted this, but Deftones' new video for Diamond Eyes' "Sextape" features a makeout session between two mermaids that's full of My Little Pony-esque graphics and sparkles that are more gag-inducing than Edward from Twilight.

Deftones — Diamond Eyes

By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) May 7, 2010 1:20 pm
Diamond Eyes is the aural equivalent of needing to prime a wall before you paint it, but not doing so because you thought it wasn't necessary and ending up with major problems. One has to wonder if going into the studio without bassist Chi Cheng was the best idea. He went into a coma at the end of 2008 after being involved in a car crash. The...

When bad things happen to you, you can either spend way too much time concentrating on them and self-destruct, or you can push on and deal with the change. Deftones clearly chose to do the latter after founding member and original bassist Chi Cheng was involved in a car accident that left him in a coma in November 2008. They'll release Diamond...
