05.31.11 | It'd be a stretch to call FNM or Deftones metal. |

yah deftones is more r&b |
demigod!
05.31.11 | FNM yes, but Deftones no. I think Deftones are more metal than Tool, personally
neither are legit metal bands, but they carry more of a metal sound
FNM i havent listened to all that much, but from what i've heard theyre not that metal. well maybe sometimes... theyre so goddamn versatile

06.01.11 | FNM are definitely metal. They don't fall exclusively in the genre, but they're definitely metal. They're definitely jazz and experimental and alternative rock too, but that doesn't change the fact that they're undeniably metallllz. At least, I consider them a (pioneering, at that) metal band, as does pretty much everyone I know.
Deftones and Tool are metal too, seeing as they're more metal than FNM. Meh, it might seem like I have a very loose definition of what metal is, but I just can't NOT call them metal. But yeah, Alternative Metal is definitely the right subgenre for all three. |

06.01.11 | Agree with Butkuiss.
And you love my pic because she's awesome. |

06.01.11 | Her name is Harle. She's a video game character. I use it as a profile pic for most websites. Except for steam, where I use the Angel Dust cover. |

06.01.11 | Ohh, Chrono Cross!? YAY! |
Butkuiss
06.01.11 | Thought I recognised her from somewhere. Also, I'm sick of this "Real metal" argument. Having some genres that aren't as heavy as others doesn't mean they're more or less "metal". It's a null argument.
Double points for double post. |

Because Deftones were definitely not one of the big players in the 90's nĂ¼-metal movement. |
