Now hitting its 20th Anniversary in 2023, the band celebrate by releasing this limited edition ruby red vinyl version. The band consists of Chino Moreno (lead vocals and guitar), Stephen Carpenter (guitar), Frank Delgado (keyboards and turntables), and Abe Cunningham (drums and percussion). They have released nine albums to date, with three Platinum (Adrenaline, Around the Fur, White Pony) and one Gold certifications (Deftones).I had zero surface noise despite having played the record previously and not cleaning it beforehand as a pre-caution like I usually do. Meeting Deftones on the Rock am Ring 2000 in person all stoned, super friendly and easy going right before they entered the stage was not what I expected at all. Instrumentation sounds much more dynamic than listening to the album digitally, even with my relatively modest audio set up. Since 2009, Sergio Vega has been standing in on bass while founding bassist Chi Cheng remained in a "partially conscious state" following a car accident.

If I had to give any gripes, paper sleeves house the records and that's always gonna dock a little bit of points in my book. As soon as they kicked in their first song that day, I was hooked and convinced that this music will stand the test of time. With any luck, this reissue should continue to help highlight the cause as cuts such as 'Minerva' still soar with triumphant yet sultry hypnotics while 'Hexagram' serves as one of the heftiest cuts in the band's canon. No matter what type of project Deftones followed up their career-defining White Pony with, it was destined to disappoint at least some of their devout fanbase.Deftones are somehow one of the few bands then labeled "Nu Metal" who didn't become more or less their own caricature, like Limp Bizkit, and to some extent KoRn as well. Originally released in 2003, the band's self-titled fourth effort would mark their final collaborative project with iconic producer Terry Date (until reuniting for 2020's Ohms), while notably eschewing much of the "nu-metal" residue that still clung to their sonic makeup.

Certain items can take longer to source than the estimated week, particularly during busy trading periods and may take longer to arrive at ourwarehouse. Not quite as punchy as my other deftones records but the guitars are THICK on this one and the riffs are bone crushing. Products labelled '*item fulfilled by Exertis on behalf of hmv' will be supplied to you directly by Exertis via their approved couriers. Music wise, this album has really grown on me- from initially being avoided due to me disliking the cover art for some odd reason which I’ve since gotten over and come to appreciate- to now being one of my favorite deftones releases!Around The Fur and especially White Pony have really aged extremely well imho, almost like an excellent wine. I can't find legit ANY info on it outside of here, and it seems legit baffling that a big label would repress this record in such a small number that it's already sold out again? Embracing elements of trip-hop and post-metal, while directly linking the group to the "are they or aren't they shoegaze? Chino’s vocals are warm, rich, and clear, and Stephen’s guitar really slices through each track- all supported by Abe’s punchy drumming and Chengs present basswork (really nice to be able to hear and feel the bass in these recordings!
