Battle Axe and Anniversary are probably my favorites here. Hexagram and Bloody Cape are amazing too

In my top 3 Deftones for sure. Perhaps their most underrated record along with SNW.

certainly doesn't get nearly as much praise as WP and the "revival" of DE and KNY.

Truly, this and SNW are the forgotten (as much as any multi-million records selling band can be) era of the band.

Half these songs are way better than the other half for me.



'Hexagram', 'Telephone' and 'Bloody Cape' are all top 20 Deftones tunes though, maybe I'd even put all three in their top 10 songs...



'Minerva' and 'Needles' are also decent...the rest is relatively snoozy, maybe even bland at times. Feels a bit half baked and transitional as a complete package, certainly did at the time, maybe less so now, could do a full revisit.

Certainly I didn't care for this record at the time, but that's been my most listened to Deftones once I was done with Ohms.



Pissed off and atmospheric. Like WP but darker.



For me, and although I still like it, SNW is their most inconsistent

Doof straight up disrespecting the best track here, Battle-axe. I won't stand for it

Revisiting Battle-axe and I dig the instrumental a lot but not my favourite work from Chino gotta say. Outside the ones I mentioned I'd put 'Deathblow' as about equal with it but it's definitely better than the the two last songs and 'Lucky You'.

"deathblow is a key cut off of this"

Absolutely.

"Look, I'm not saying this is the best Deftones album...

Not my personal favourite, but it was my first 'Tones, and 100% respect the sentiment.

Cant even rank the songs on this album properly because they're all good. Lucky You is the only one worth skipping

Bloody Cape is easily my favourite here. Minerva, Needles and Pins and Moana being that low is odd though.

The album is insanely solid all the way thru, there’s a big gap for me between the top 3 and the rest
