Gore is a great album. It just isn’t a great DEFTONES album, which is an extremely high standard.



White Pony

Self titled

Diamond Eyes

KNY

SNW

ATF

Gore

Adrenaline

I think it’s funny how new-ish Deftones fans think DE, KNY and SNW are their best albums, while more longtime fans say WP and self titled. Not saying one is better than the other, just an observation.

But Kompys — seriously. ATF has Be Quiet and Drive (arguably the greatest Deftones song) and My Own Summer — those songs alone make ATF a better album than Gore.

Stickfelt, that’s a great ranking, aside from s/t being way too low. Listen to Hexagram, Deathblow, Battleaxe, When Girls Telephone Boys and Anniversary again, then tell me it’s one of their worst albums.

Thanks Lark! Yeah I don’t know what it is about S/T.. I enjoy it, but I find it pretty easy and vanilla for Deftones standards. But jammed it a long time, might put it on during this down time.

Would be cool to hit this up again and fall in love with it for the first time.

all the rankings here are amazing because they are so different. I guess that tells us, that every Deftones album is quality shit.



1. Diamond Eyes

2. White Pony

3. Covers (sue me!)

4. Koi No Yokan

5. Around the Fur

6. s/t

7. Gore

8. Saturday Night Wrist

9. Adrenaline



Musically, WP and DE are on the same level but seeing the circumstances of DE, I like it quite a bit more. What a comeback. 3-7 are almost interchangeable, depends on mood.

I love that nobody can decide on this bands best album, I've seen great arguments for all their albums being their best bar this and Adrenaline tbh.

Saturday Night Wrist falls right behind the top 3 for me, the top 3 on the other hand switches around a lot

white pony will always be their best, everything else has cool ideas but that's such an amazingly complete record

White Pony seems to be at least the most unifying, in the sense that even in the situation Larkin was describing, it's the one album just as likely to make it to a new-Tones fan's top 3 as a classic-Tones fan's

@Larkin tbf it's been a while since I last heard Around the Fur, I do remember liking Be Quiet and Drive quite a bit but My Own Summer (and most of the other songs) is a little too nu-metal for my tastes lol

Around the Fur can barely be considered nu-metal



Oh and it rules
