12 Deftones Riffs/Songs

[@faqugang4527]

im surprised how extremely accurate ur tones are for almost every band

[@bloxsy_]

Thank you. I don't always get close, but I try.

[@faqugang4527]

@@bloxsy_ it is not exact but close

[@s1storm]

​@@bloxsy_What do you use to get that tone for ''change '' (I have the same guitar )

[@Cinnuh315]

Yeah his tones are pretty def

[@biohazard8295]

Notice how his picking position and intensity changes with every band. That has has a lot to do with guitars tone

Bro mascara bored and be quiet sounded so accurate fr 😭🙏

Thanks dude

[@XtremeKillah101]

That Mascara riff still gives me goosebumps

[@HK007Filmworks]

The ending riff from that song Reminds me of the Bridge riff from Infected by Demon Hunter.

[@wide_awake]

Such a banger of a song 🔥

[@BagrielMusic]

@@HK007Filmworks Sounds exact the same lol. For sure Demon Hunter got inspired by Mascara

[@herniagaming]

Stephen carpenter is a smart guy. He doesn't do much acrobatic shit on the guitar but he uses tunings and tone to get really nice sounding chords without having to move much

[@Keyferr]

That Mascara tone was very spot on, damn

[@ChiefWindyCheeks]

Steph actually made a very signature sound in this band. When he riffs you know it’s him. That’s very rare in this genre.

[@hanzovalorant999]

But deftones don’t have any specific genre

[@xintlzer3354]

@@hanzovalorant999 Just imagine Nu Metal and Shoegaze fuzzed together. That's Deftones lol

[@tomney4460]

My friend’s dad was in the 90s NoCal metal scene and said Deftones were the nicest guys and were super fun to play a show with. RIP Chi Cheng.

[@mynamessky5436]

Love to see the appreciation for the band's Adrenaline-era stuff. I've always felt that that record is criminally underrated in their wider discography, especially for how raw and aggressive it is. Hell, even though it's not their best in my opinion, I prefer it over a lot of their more popular/recent material. :p

[@scottbryan3362]

Yes sir it is. BACK UP BACK BACK THA F&@K BACK IMA GET RESPECT. Yeh that song start alone caused more injuries in my garage.

[@therewasascene]

Adrenaline and self-titled are the two I’ve ended up listening to the most in the past years. White Pony is forever king but omg I have listened to it so many times.

[@mynamessky5436]

@@therewasascene Self-titled is also really good, I do agree. Honestly, as weird as this might sound coming from a Deftones fan, I never really got the appeal for WP. Nothing particularly stuck out to me on that record for the most part. I found “Elite” and “Knife Prty” to be really bad (at least as far as vocals went), probably some of the worst songs the band has even written and released. I only really cared for “Korea” and “Change (In the House of Flies)”. You can like it if you want obviously, that’s fine and I don’t judge, I just have very strong opinions on much of Deftones’ works. :p

[@therewasascene]

@@mynamessky5436 That’s wild, man. No judgment here either - like what you like. That riff on elite was a big one for me so I didn’t really care what the vocal tone was doing too much. You know he recorded that with a styrofoam box around the mic? Might have something to do with the sound you don’t care for. And I assume the over-the-top warbley effect on the chorus. Ooh..digital bath though?

[@mynamessky5436]

@@therewasascene Yeah, that’s mainly it. I don’t care for him sounding like a robot. :p “Digital Bath” isn’t too bad.

[@colbyreller5896]

That My Own Summer tone is on point

[@Simonknowsall]

STILL BANGS AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, GOD BLESS DEFTONES

[@cpnstbn1266]

Jesus I was pumped watching this whole video. I forgot how much I loved so many of these songs. Deftones was my first concert at 16. I always thought they were just so unique. Stephen carpenter melodic riffs were unique and powerful in their simplicity. I remember buying that MXR pedal literally just so I could play Be quiet and Drive . Great job dude

[@ruijorge3]

Used to listen to this stuff in my teenagehood... dark depressive metal... but there's also some beauty to it... I don't know.. it's a feeling, can't really explain through words... Good job bro. 😉😉

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks man. Much appreciated

[@aida_acx]

Mascara is spot on.

[@lavre3522]

LITERALLY LIKE

[@doncarlosderush1500]

Steph let the riffs outta the bag on those clips. I dig his shredding a lot. Humble guy. You sound good, brother!

[@bloxsy_]

Yeah those videos were really good to see. And thanks dude.

[@deadroses19]

0:27 ive known this riff for years and it still remains surprising and thrilling

[@Crampsam]

I know people comment this on every one of your videos but seriously. The accuracy of these tones is fucking nuts

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks man. I appreciate it.

[@adrianOpr6]

You are so incredibly talented dude, these riffs all sound identical to the studio versions. Hearing Minerva truly blessed my ears as it is my favorite of all time. Keep up the great work, you just earned a new subscriber!

[@bloxsy_]

Thank you very much dude!

[@fenderpleb2942]

holy shit, you nailed those tones. be quiet and drive sounds literally identical. also, respect for having a bunch of adrenaline-era stuff in here. root is one of my favourites ever and i feel like that whole album doesn't get enough appreciation

[@benmchardy]

Fantastic attention to detail recreating the tones, sounding awesome!!

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks!

[@bobbybobberton6373]

Your tones match nearly perfect. This is the first time I’ve bothered watching something like this and it really goes to show you how much emotion deftones could convey with a few notes.

[@erttttt]

This is the first correct Change intro I've ever seen on KZbin. Thanks.

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks

[@augustrush6957]

looking for that comment

[@xiriquete]

back to school was so beautiful

[@HumFan]

sounds straight from the albums!

[@Eljh4245]

Happy taht you actually acknowledged the fact that the adrenaline album exists I swear no one actually does😭

[@mycawild]

I love their riffs so much 🥰

[@therewasascene]

Mascara is a standout for me too, sir. I loved to play Root when I first got into Deftones.

[@hyronvinter778]

I like covers, but i found more relaxing to just listen to the guitar riffs without no other sound, sounds awesome man

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks dude. Glad you appreciate it.

[@sleshhsh]

Its harder to find guitar covers without people singing their shitty voice, I like this typa video

[@hyronvinter778]

@@sleshhsh i meant covers with the original song in the back, it makes even hard to listen to the person doing the cover

[@reptilesgamers00]

[@byamcarter7110]

every song sounded great dude! nailed the tones and the riffs

[@-k-b-]

Great video dude, some of their best riffs! I love them, but I feel like they've REALLY simplified things to a point of almost being boring with their new songs and using 8+ strings. I think their 7 string and down songs have much more memorable riffs. Not to say they're aren't good ones: Gauze, Radiant City, Acid Hologram, Risk, 976 Evil, Spell Of Mathematics, Poltergeist, and a handful more I can't think of all have sick riffs! And for a 30 year old alt metal band, they're ABSOLUTELY the most consistent band ever and deliver quality after quality album. I think they could get weirder sometimes is all.

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks man. I'm not as familiar with the newer stuff so I'll check that out.

[@jackd9375]

Their sound now is less about riffs and traditional metal elements and more about texture and song structure. They’ve figured themselves out and they’ve matured from the foundation they established through their first few albums

[@corbinthepieguy0249]

The tones were perfect bro! Gorgeous sounding stuff

[@smokefurball2249]

First time I’ve ever seen someone with the same name and spelling as I, hello fellow Corbin

[@matthewjdouglas6471]

Heavy riffage, love it, i don't know if you've ever listened to a band called "These animal men " great British/English band that were really getting a lot of hype around the early mid 90s. I seriously think you should check them out, fantastic guitar band,

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks. I've never heard of them. I'll check them out though, always good to listen to something new.

Fuck yeah nicely done! This made me pick up a guitar for the first time in a while re-learn some of these so thanks heaps! Wish I could dial in the tones like you have tho they are pretty spot on!

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks mate! That's really cool to hear. Hope you keep it up! The tones are from a Boss Katana amp if that helps at all.

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks dude

[@thatzcrazyyy]

what are you amp settings? and do you use any pedals?? your tone is spot on, especially mascara

[@bloxsy_]

Thanks. I think the key to that sound is the neck pickup. Gives it that softer tone, and I rolled back the distortion a bit.

[@vladimirperez4897]

I noticed you playing the third string with you pinky in my own summer, i’ve never seen anyone play it like that so I went to the Stephen carpenter play through video and I think you might be right.
