It totally is Around the Fur’s “Engine No. 9”! Around the Fur is almost like a do-over of Adrenaline, haha. “Okay, we know more what we want to sound like now, let’s have kind of the same flow to the album, open with the single, rap-metal song as the penultimate track, end with a slower song, boom.”

Edit: Then for a few albums after White Pony the formula involved an experimental electronic song in the middle of every album.

Never thought about it before, but this is probably the most Weezery Deftones song. You can definitely hear Chino’s Blue Album fandom here if you look for it.

gave Koi No Yokan a listen for the first time awhile back and absolutely loved it.

i just don't know what album to listen to next

Anyone wanna start a Deftones tribute band and call it Hot Carling Academy?

Have you heard Diamond Eyes?

nah i haven't should that be the next one i listen to?

Yeah

yeah bro it’s amazing

recently, Around the Fur has been getting heavy rotation

Everyone else answered lol but yes absolutely it’s crept into my top 3.

I spun that one recently as well and I truly forgot how much I love it. Lotion, MX, the title track.. f*** it’s so good front to back

that first 3 track run is insane…so so so good

you fw MX like that? I still dont understand why its a 37min track

there’s 2 hidden tracks in MX

I only hear 1 at the end

skip to around the 19 minute mark…it’s a short interlude called Bong Hit lol

I usually don’t sit through the silence and bonus tracks tbh lol

But yes definitely one of my faves on the album

Diamond Eyes is so f***ing good man i forgot how HEEEAAAAVVYYY that album was

“Mx” and “Damone” are both great. Shout out Abe’s sister on vocals.
Think about what?

Ohms is the first album they’ve made that I flat-out don’t like. Gore has high points; Ohms always feels kinda one-note and blah to my ears.
