The Deftones

Glad to hear they are still making music. I just hope this is better than Saturday Night Wrist...that album had some moments but it is nowhere near White Pony.

It just feels like after White Pony, they felt like all their amazing album powers were gone and just didn't want to put the effort in again. Adrenaline to Around the Fur to White Pony...such growth and then BAM self titled comes out. It also had its moments but I had sooo much more hope after White Pony.

As you can tell I really like this band. They are probably the ONLY band that ever got lumped in with nu metal that I still give a crap about. Never thought they deserved to be stuck with those guys, anyways.
 
Yeah I'm with you, one of the few tied in with Nu metal that I care about. Tool gets tied in quite often, or at least used to before the progressive rock label became popular again.

I also agree that Saturday Night Wrist was a bit of a disappointment, despite the great artwork. I liked the self-titled better. You're right that it wasn't as strong as the first 3, but I still like it quite a bit.
