Doomed User: A Guide To Understanding Deftones

It goes without saying that alt-metal heroes Deftones are responsible for creating some of the most forward-thinking and groundbreaking rock music of the last 20+ years. It was around (hah!) the 1997 release of Around The Fur where the band really started gaining impressive accolades and attention of their peers, embarking on several huge support and headlining runs with some of the most important names in post-hardcore, nu-metal, and more.

You’ll likely hear most people recommend you listen to their groundbreaking 2000 album White Pony first, but there is no wrong place to start with Deftones. While the band can be difficult to get into considering their expansive discography, which spans many different styles of metal and rock, our friends at Lie Likes Music are here to give you the lowdown on the best places to start listening to Deftones, where the band came from, and where they’re going in the future. Check out the full video below – even if you’re a long-time fan of the alt-metal veterans, this video is an informative watch, to be sure.
