| Top 10 Favorite Deftones Songs
In honor of the upcoming Deftones album, Koi no rYokan, here's my list of rmy Top 10 Deftones tracks. | | 1 | Deftones
Passenger (White Pony)
A hauntingly atmospheric guest performance from Maynard James Keenan matches
Chino Moreno's breathy gasp with gusto. | | 2 | You've Seen the Butcher (Diamond Eyes)
A seamless mix of Stephen Carpenter's crunching guitars and Chino Moreno's
immersive vocals makes this one sound disturbingly sexual, but downright
incredible. | | 3 | Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) (Around the Fur)
A radio-friendly uplifter nails the heavy guitars and outreaching tone. | | 4 | Rocket Skates (Diamond Eyes)
Stephen Carpenter's revving guitars collide into a thunderous and intense burst
of
energy. | | 5 | Kimdracula (Saturday Night Wrist)
Saturday Night Wrist holds a spooky, but heavy vibe, one that makes a mark on
the
album in a cool way. | | 6 | Hole in the Earth (Saturday Night Wrist)
The song that got me interested in Deftones, the tumultuous times of the band is
released in a spacey radio hit. | | 7 | Digital Bath (White Pony)
Purely ethereal and atmospheric, the guitars are lighter, the effects tightened,
and
Chino's vocals even more gasping. | | 8 | 7 Words (Adrenaline)
Back when they were called "nu-metal," it raged, it grooved, it was heavy long
before "nu-metal" was a questionable term in music classification. | | 9 | Engine No. 9 (Adrenaline)
Adrenaline's beefiest heavy hitter, a thorough mix of rapping and Stephen's
gravity-
stricken guitar tones. | | 10 | Royal (Diamond Eyes)
Weighted at every turn, Chino gets to belt out as one of Diamond Eyes' finest
tracks. | |
YoYoMancuso
09.22.12 | hell yeah 1 3 6 7 | KILL
09.22.12 | the only band that matters | YoYoMancuso
09.22.12 | KILL, what about rush? | PostMesmeric

Trust me, this was tough narrowing down my favorites. As for the self-titled album, it never really grew on me, at least not as much as the others (though "Bloody Cape" is damn good). | TumsFestival
09.22.12 | Where's Sextape?? | PostMesmeric
09.22.12 | @MyCarandMyGuitar
That one was definitely up for consideration when I made this list. Love that song, love that entire album. | Dunpeal
09.22.12 | 1,3,7 fo sho
would add bored and my own summer (even tho i kno it's played out as fuk) | SCREAMorphine
09.23.12 | Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) is the easier and funnest song to play live. |
