Best experience I had with Deftones was listening to Change in the middle of a crowded street and being completely hypnotized, it was like I was on drugs without using any kind of drug.

[@psycold]

I grew up on nu-metal. Was a junior in high school when Korn made it big with Follow the Leader. Got to see Deftones performing at the Warped Tour in '98...still one of the best shows I've ever seen. I was into The Deftones for the aggressive songs. Stuff like My Own Summer, Engine no. 9, 7 words, Elite, Headup, and Rickets hit me just right at that point in my life. Eventually I got into much heavier stuff. I still love all forms of death, thrash, and grind...yet 20+ years later Deftones are still the only band I listened to from that era who still maintains full credibility because they didn't put out the same album over and over. They evolved, they matured, and they became the best version of themselves. Even during the Around the Fur/Adrenaline era it was really unfair to define The Deftones as "nu-metal" because they were so far ahead of their time, and now they are so far from the nu-metal moniker it's kind of insulting to consider them ever being part of that sub-genre. I have so much respect for them and can't wait to see how they will sound 5-10 years from now.

[@FutureExitsMedia]

Great comment, 100% agreed.

UPDATE Im in my 20's, currently living through horrible breakup, trying to survive college and make it out alive. Deftones have become my only source of peace and silenece I am now more peaceful than I have ever been. I worked on my self and do things that makes me happy and I'm seeing results by doing all of those things in my self, my performance, and my confidence. I have now gotten myself an angel that truly understands me, even more than myself and loved me for who I am. It does get better bros and sis. There will be light at the end of the tunnel

I remember driving outside of LA on a hot summer evening watching slowly as the sun melted into the horizon listening to Diamond Eyes. It felt so calm and peaceful.

[@McJitsu360]

Greatest experience I had listening to Deftones was when I was in a hotel and it was pouring rain outside. Mind you I was quite drunk when this happened. I looked out the window, and just admired how the light from the city reflected in the falling rain and how it cast skewing rays of light into the room. Entombed from Koi No Yokan came on the speaker I had in the room and I became so entranced I stood at that window looking outside for the entire duration of the song.

Yes! Koi no yokan gave me that vibe has a lot of that. Chino was trying to fuse some kind of team sleep elements into Deftones. But team sleep hits it in the melancholy vibe.

[@---Free-Comics---IG---Playtard]

At first, I thought this was Pumpkins. This song has that godly sort of harmony to it.

[@DonnieDarkoRemains]

I was introduced to Deftones at a young age when Cooler's Revenge came out. I had no idea that at that time I was being introduced to one of the greatest bands on the planet. It certainly helped that the song they used for the movie, "Change" was played at a very appropriate time that sent chills down my spine and I occasionally from time to time look that scene up on YT just to re-capture that moment. Just brilliant.

[@11FOXHOUND11]

I started watching dragon ball last year and got to dbz just before 2022. i bought the movies at a secondhand shop, Changes was the absolute best song for that ssj transformation, definitely gave me chills as well. Also the piccolo scenes were sick

Felt like it was speaking to me as I melted into the view. So good, even saw three shooting stars, a record for me in a 5 minute sitting lol. It’s so cool that so many people relate this band to just separating your spirit momentarily

I saw Deftones is 2017 (Dallas) for the second time, and I was in the pit. During Knife Party, Chino came down to the crowd and had those of us close by singing "Come get you knives! Come Get you knives!" into the mic, And this guy next to me had the best damn metal scream for it and the crowd loved it. I got to hold onto Chino's hand for a second too, like, damn, that show was fantastic.

I don't know how, but this song still brings me memories of the time I spent those final days. Such an odd song to have as a nostalgic memory of being in a college and looking out every window I passed by or stood at, staring our into the trees and thinking about nothing but this music and me.

I like to bring my record player by the river when it’s winter and listen to my Deftones records along with some other of my favorites. Sometimes I’ll even bring my guitar and play songs off white pony. I think for a long time the thing I was missing in my life was Deftones, as silly as it sounds it made me understand myself and other things and people around me in a different way. The songs express feelings of melodic pain and seething happiness if that makes sense to anyone other than me. They are one of those bands that make something that makes sense to us more than our own emotions sometimes, I really appreciate them.
