  I guess the upcoming Album will be another masterpiece… The Spirit of Deftones is in all their records. You can feel it.
  A lot of Fans coplained to the last 2 Albums, but no Band is perfect and it wouldn’t be fun listening to the records if they would all sound the same.
  Hopefully it doesn’t take to long until its released.

  The people who say tht their last 2 albums were bad are all stupid idiots. Deftones albums were all great and just as Jason said hearing the same thing over and over is gay. They’re unique and majestic. And im dieing to get a hold on their new album!

  Thier self-titled “effort” was one of the best cd’s they have put out.By far ,better than most bands will EVER put out.

  i love deftones their one of my favs. no matter what they come out with or how long it takes it will be amazing and another addition to the great deftones legacy!!!!!!!!!!

  Deftones are my favorite band and I must say I am very pleased to see that they are keeping up with their excellent and impeccable work! Can’t wait to hear Eros

  im with rey, in regards to their self titled album. I listened to it again, a few weeks ago from beginning to end, and its fkng amazing..Saturday Night Wrist was good.. but not as good as the Self titled album..go back and give it a fair listen.. and tell me, it doesnt leave you salivating at the mouth in anticipation of eros.

  Keyanna said: “The people who say tht their last 2 albums were bad are all stupid idiots. Deftones albums were all great and just as Jason said hearing the same thing over and over is gay.”

  First of all, telling anyone they’re a “stupid idiot” for having an opinion on music, good or bad, is ridiculous and extremely immature. I’ve been a huge Deftones fan for nearly 8 years now and was extremely disappointed by SNW – not necessarily because I thought it was a bad album or was poorly executed, but because when I listened to it I thought, “this isn’t why I bought a deftones album.” In a lot of ways, I felt the same towards SNW as I did the new Tool (10,000 Days) and Mastodon(Crack the Skye) albums – most significantly that there were only about 3 songs that bared any resemblance to what I had come to love about these bands and were worth listening to. Simply too much “filler”. I, personally, wasn’t looking for “atmospheric soundscaping”, which brings me to your next point – I don’t think an album is any less impressive if it sounds similar (or dissimilar) to previous releases – good is good; bad is bad. Every album should stand alone and be judged subjectively. Hopefully then, SNW was just one standalone album – because, well, it sucked. Rock on….

• 10 Eric // May 24, 2009 at 5:02 pm

  Greg, I understand what your saying about not liking SNW…,but you obviously know nothing about music…seriously, shut the fuck up. I have been listening to the Deftones since the very beginning, every album is different on purpose dumb ass. Their one band I can honestly say that has NEVER put out an album I was disappointed in. Just because SNW maybe wasn’t tailored to your liking doesn’t mean it sucked…you actually think mastodon is a good band, YOU HAVE NO CREDIBILITY, shut the fuck up, and go kill yourself

• 11 Bryce // May 26, 2009 at 12:16 am

  I agree with Greg. He wasn’t saying that all the albums should sound the same. He was stating that a good album is a good album and a bad one is well just bad. He was saying that the band should not go for a particular sound…just try to make a good solid record. What he misses is the epicness. SNW did not suck me into it as much as their other albums. I want to fall into the sound, not stand in front of it.

• 12 John C. // Jun 7, 2009 at 5:14 am

  SNW had a lot of Team Dream about it. Their best album from beginning to end is their self titled album. Every song on that album has great sound scaping and depth. Its no surprise to me that it’s also their least appreciated album.
  Deftones when its all said and done will be remembered for being different from every other band and being extremely good at it.

• 13 ben m // Jun 23, 2009 at 12:09 am

  ok guys and girls adrenaline came out in what 94 or 95 and its now 2009 bands grow bands change most bands who survive that long sell out or have drastic change due to line up changes the deftones capture the spirit of heavy alt music in every single one of their releases and never comprimise not for the label(mini maggot aside) not for you not for anyone they are artists and if anyone needs to like their work it’s them. sure i like some albums better than others and also some songs better than others but at the end of the day their art belongs to them and i wouldnt have it any other way. open your mind open your ears and shut your mouth unless you are saying something positive about the band you obviosly care enough about to write a post about on the internet.

• 14 ben m // Jun 23, 2009 at 12:17 am

  also snw does not suck and they explore a lot of new territory. even if eros comes out and you all say oh my god the deftones released a crappy cd im so mad! how could they do this? i’ll still be jamming out to it. if you dont like it you can A.start your own band or B.keep in mind that a “bad” deftones album is still better than 99.9 percent of all music currently being shoved down our throats. this is becoming a rant and im not the deftones personal defender so as i said earlier open your mind and shut your mouth

• 15 ben m // Jun 23, 2009 at 12:20 am

  final word i swear !!!! the last line of john c’s post is the most intelligent thing on this board

• 16 andy // Jul 1, 2009 at 12:01 am

  i agree with ben m’s first post open your mind open your ears and shut your mouth, it’s the best way to listen to any form of music deftones whole purpose in the music industry is to play music that they enjoy playing they dont care about mindless faggots that dont like one fucking album they’ve released and as i’ve read it’s only that one album some assholes are being pissy about, who the fuck are you to judge what is good deftones music and what isnt, they love their fans, fans that kick up shit and feel the need to force their negative opinions all over the internet about one album that they felt a sense of achievement out of. it doesnt matter if you dont like it i couldnt care it’s a good album, it’s a deftones album it has everything every other deftones album has….orgionality in the alt music scene, if you dont like it then fair enough have an opinion but dont shoot them down for something you didnt create. regardless it isnt my favourite deftones album, but it;s a good album all the same in fact beware has become one of my most loved tracks. even though it’s not my personal favourite album it’s a deftones album and i respect them for that alone for having released another awesome album. besides it’s deftones and they fucking rock harder than any modern day band

  If this is released in 2009, I will be very happy.

• 18 Pepe // Jul 1, 2009 at 11:22 am

  Can’t wait for the new album

• 19 Stef // Jul 2, 2009 at 6:59 am

  Cannot wait for EROS!!!! And yea every deftones album is incredible, some are good for pumping up to, but SNW and their STA are both just as good as ATF, WP and Adrenaline. Personally my favorite album is their self-titled, because it takes me to an amazing place everytime i hear it. if you say SNW sucked, then you truly do not understand deftones as a band.

• 20 Kayleen // Jul 7, 2009 at 3:03 am

  Is Eros going to be delayed?

  whats goin on with that…what the word is?

• 21 Blood // Aug 8, 2009 at 6:43 pm

  well i love everyone of them i started listening to deftones back in 97 with around the fur wich i kept listening for a long time…then when white pony came out i was astunished with the song knife party it gave me goosebumps every time i listened to it ..the self titled is a very good album but also very violent ..my favourite is SNW i cant stop listening to it hole in the earth on maximum level and sing along it’s great cant get enough of it!! kimdracula also but cultures arent opinions so its like i havent said nothing i hope chi gets well soon i love him he’s one of the most inspiring bass players i’ve ever heard http://www.oneloveforchi.com headup !!!!

• 22 Roofus Doofu // Aug 26, 2009 at 3:24 am

  Deftones is a much to mature music that what most of the simple minds on this page can appreciate. Every album is great in it’s own way.

• 23 Evony Famp // Aug 26, 2009 at 3:25 am

  Deftones Rule

• 24 Evony Famp // Aug 26, 2009 at 3:26 am

• 25 gearhead // Sep 25, 2009 at 1:45 am

  love the deftones, all their albums are awesome, they all pull you in and wont let you stop listening. and to all that think snw is bad, its just different its great in its own right, i only wish everyone could appericate this band as much as myself and realize that their talent far surpasses almost every band that has ever been. eros will be awesome no dout about it

• 26 johnny // Oct 4, 2009 at 3:27 am

  if you are a real deftones fan you would listen to all their albums and not complaint that they suck your just a little bitch deftones are one of the most unique bands ever made not like the stupid shit they play on the radio so FUCK what yall think!!!

• 27 horyu-X // Oct 4, 2009 at 7:18 am

  okay. first off, i wanna give mad props to Ben M. and John C. for being REAL deftones fans, and knowing what they’re talking about. i’ve been a longtime hardcore fan of the deftones, and they are still my favorite band. it just disgusts me to see ppl who call themselves fans of the band then start bashing their albums because it doesn’t sound how they think it should sound. this is the thing… i got into deftones because of their originality, and the fact that they didn’t sound like anything i’ve heard before. and with each new album, they keep that whole atmosphere and expand on it. that’s what makes them deftones! love it or leave it… it’s that simple. and as for SNW- sure, it wasn’t my favorite, but it was still good. i still bump that shit. i got one of my friends into deftones just by playing kimdracula… that alone speaks for itself.

• 28 zeal // Oct 7, 2009 at 12:06 pm

  want so much to hear some new deftones material. and even more for their fallen comrade to rejoin ranks. they make the music that feeds my soul.

• 29 Anonymous // Oct 13, 2009 at 11:51 am

  I’ve only been listening to deftones for over 4 years and I gotta say they have slowly became one of my alltime favorite bands. Deftones is officially one of my top 5. No doubt. Expecting Eros. I know it will be as incredible as the rest!

  Chi cheng, return with good health.

• 30 New Zealand // Oct 20, 2009 at 4:02 am

  Cant wait for Eros, its already been too long… we need Deftones to come back to NZ also!!

• 31 Brad // Oct 27, 2009 at 4:11 am

  So if Chi dies and the band splits, who wants to come to my suicide party?

  Get well Chi!

  Those who say that all deftones albums are good are in fact right. If you rag on the deftones for having an album that you don’t like as much, then you are clueless. You have to understand that these guys are evolving and getting more interesting. They are in their mid thirties what do fans want from them 300 different versions of “Change” off of White Pony? When I started listening to them I was 17/18 I heard Adrenaline and thought it was one of the best albums in the world. On Around the fur they polished the same sound and made it heavier. What kills me is everyone uses White Pony as the High water mark. It’s a great album sure, but their best maybe maybe not. The thing is everyone jumped on the Deftones bandwagon right after White Pony, why? Because the album was smartly marketed, and because change was the MTV single. Soon every 17 year old girl with black hair and 1 tatoo on her thigh was a die hard deftones fan. When the self-titled album came out after that, evryone said it was crap, including Chino himself (in so many words) . The fact is that it is one of the best Deftones albums out. Nobody gave a crap about it cause it wasn’t MTV enough, romantic enough,blahh, blahh. Then people ragged on Saturday night wrist cause it was too different etc, etc,.
  Fact is Deftones are rock solid , they are humans like you and I and they decide to write the songs that they decide to write. So questioning it is a waste of time. If you didn’t like the last 2 albums go listen to how washed up Metallica is or listen to how boring TOOL has become.yeaaah

• 33 joe blow/jane doe // Oct 28, 2009 at 1:33 am

  Dear Greg,
  anybody who cites Mastodon and Tool as references in comparison to the Deftones is simply just a retard for life. Ahh yes the Truth hurst. Tool lost their originality right after Opiate and Mastodon has a sucked a very large Ding Dong only because their singer sounds like he is faking taking a shit at all times.
  For Far more interesting frames of reference in the future you may want to cite Minsk in the place of Tool. They have more balls, brains, blood and sheer ferocity than 200 Tools. As for the sad clown of Mastodon just replace them with Baroness for way better riffs/heaviness/song structure/originality and a singer who is actually screaming and signing and not just plain pretending to fill his diaper with a steamy hot mess. Thanks and as Greg Gaylord says, rock on.

• 34 hey // Oct 28, 2009 at 1:49 am

  oops! Must point out that the term ALT or Alternative music, is gay and dead 20 years ago,there is no such type of music unless you are frozen in a 1989 time warp or you are referring to Tripping Daisy. Next we have to talk about the term “jamming out”. Some dude said this in his post. You can use that term if you are 13 to 16 and from the suburbs, you can use it if you are listening to the shittiest band on earth 311 or sublime or you might be touring with Phish or the greatful dead but you can’t use it when talking about the Deftones. It’s like saying ” I was tap dancing to “reign in blood” by Slayer”.

• 35 ValuE // Oct 31, 2009 at 3:00 pm

  Wow. I feel a bit dumber from reading all the moronic comments that you imbeciles have written.Anyway, I would like to know if any reasonable person out there has an idea when Eros may be released….if ever

• 36 ValuE // Oct 31, 2009 at 3:10 pm

  btw…”Hey”…did you have a 3rd grader draft that literary piece of shit up and post it for you? Here’s a tip…never write anything that other people will read .. EVER. That should save you some future embarrassment….you clearly have no idea wtf you are talking about, and convey your’e idiotic message with a poor understanding of the english language at best…just go away you fool

• 37 Bands of the Decade: Deftones // Nov 4, 2009 at 2:42 pm

  Really? I mean, like, really? This website is called “thrashhits.com”. Whoever wrote this article is obviously a mainstream, bubblegum douchebag, and is on the complete opposite critic site of which he should be on. Go review some Nickelback albums, fucknut, because no one here wants to hear your opinion at all. “-even 2003’s self-titled effort was alright-”. Are you fucking kidding me? That’s Deftones’ best record to date and that is a fact, not an opinion. That record defines “Deftones” and it not only conveys the most emotion out of any Deftones record, but it is obviously the heaviest. After all, your website is “thrashhits”. I strongly recommend suicide. Honestly. Do it. You won’t be missed.

• 39 TonesNTool // Nov 10, 2009 at 8:55 am

  I don’t know why anyone complained about Saturday Night Wrist. I thought it was excellent. More mellow yes, but excellent nonetheless.

• 40 tron // Nov 12, 2009 at 5:30 am

  Love the Deftones…Love all the albums…The self titled album stayed in my permanent rotation for almost 2 years after it was released…I remember being shocked at how little attention it got…I am also shocked to see so much mastodon bashing….the best drummer I’ve heard in awhile….yeah so the vocals get lame sometimes, but the music is tight. Crack the Skye is pretty weak though. Long live Deftones…long live real musicians.

• 41 tron // Nov 12, 2009 at 5:32 am

  I stumbled upon this shit hole of a website…..it should be called Trash shits.
