[@Zdenda1990]

The album was produced by Terry Date, who also produced the first four albums. Ohms quickly became one of my favourites. It mostly reminds me of Diamond Eyes mixed with Koi No Yokan and White Pony.

[@mollyesanborn]

Yeah you are spot on! White Pony/Diamond Eyes/Koi No Yokan blend is on point. Terry Date did a fantastic job on Ohms in my opinion, it just has such a deep, rich sound to it that I love.

[@paroxysm6867]

Genesis is an absolute banger! It's pretty wild that these guys are in their late 40's and early 50's and still making music that goes this hard.

[@mollyesanborn]

Right?! They're on their ninth album and each one has been pretty amazing.

[@MatthiasMaximinus]

I remember not being that impressed by Ohms my first listen, but all the songs are such growers that now it's one of my favorite Deftones albums and definitely one of the best

[@IceKoldKilla]

I haven't said this but this was true for me too actually. The very first listen didn't convince me all the way. But they already had highlights for me. I just love guitars in general and am always focused on that so there's some sick riffs in it. But within a week was in love with most songs. They were stuck in my head.

[@ShastaBean]

@@IceKoldKilla I am just starting to listen to this album, and it's been the same for me with pretty much everything they've done. It doesn't do a whole lot for me on the first listen, or often even the 2nd. There's something that is abrasive and probably the reason they are so overlooked. But anyone with refined hearing, knows that this is one of the best bands there has ever been. It's cool to know that others are saying this, and have made it so that I absolutely won't be dismissing this album, and have zero doubt that I'll be glad about it.

[@yourface8700]

This album came at a low point in my life and helped me through it. It was also my first Deftones album. Since then Ohms has been overall my favorite album of all time, and Deftones rose up to be my favorite band. Deftones doesn't miss at all. Not a bad album. Not a bad song. They are a perfect band and I'm glad I discovered them

[@mollyesanborn]

Nice, Ohms was your first Deftones album too! I agree that they don't have a bad album or track really, I'm so glad I've finally discovered their music.

[@Johncnx]

I was at a very dark time in my life when this album came out and it definitely helped me go through it. Great review, Molly looking forward to your album rankings. Cheers

[@bonerjams1334]

Headless is an absolute monster of a song! Great review!

[@stephenf745]

Ohms was my first Deftones album, too and it's definitely one of my favorites. The subtle effects and distortions on the vocals are just so interesting to me. Maybe I'm crazy, but I think this album sounds like somebody trapped in, and trying to reach out from, a digital world 🤷‍♂️. I think my favorite tracks are Genesis, Urantia, and This Link is Dead

[@mollyesanborn]

That's actually a really great way of describing its sound! It's got almost this futuristic/sci fi edge to it from the vocal distortions and effects that they utilize.

[@puppet585]

Very well put. That description plus a little dark like you’re non existent screaming out for help or love to someone or something you live breathe thrive and die for.

[@puppet585]

@@mollyesanborn you say futuristic I agree but I would say matrix glitch or dystopian style

[@davidcales275]

Chino's lyrics really spoke to me on Ohms. Whether it be songs about a relationship (to and about his wife) or, how should I say it, not loving the current state of society, I relate to every song. And from your listen through comments it sounds like Frank Delgado's keyboards and synthesizers spoke to you!!

[@heheyproductions]

love the deftones content! awesome to see you appreciate their music like they deserve to be appreciated

[@mollyesanborn]

Thanks! Yeah, Deftones is an amazing band.

[@WolfataDoor]

This is my favorite Deftones album. Absolutely immaculate.

[@shooniemorey3894]

Error, This Link is Dead, Pompeji, Radiant City, and Ohms are the standout tracks for me. I remember the hype for this album and it did not disappoint on my first listen! I can't get enough of Chino's melodic voice. Tbh, I wouldn't mind an album with just the softer side to his voice on all the tracks. But I really enjoy his intensity in his vocals. The Spell of Mathematics is another standout! I can't really pick a top 5. 😂

[@mollyesanborn]

Genesis and The Spell of Mathematics are probably my top 2 but yeah, the whole record is pretty amazing. I'd totally be hyped for a melodic Chino album too, I'm sure it would sound great!

[@shooniemorey3894]

Thank you for your video reaction to their albums and obviously your a fan now. Looking forward to new year of your channel.

[@mollyesanborn]

Genesis is so fantastic, probably my favorite track from Ohms. I'm definitely a Deftones fan after doing this series, haha!

[@Lightning_Alert]

Glad you did this one! Don’t forget the “Covers” compilation album. There’s also B-sides and Rarities compilation album that has some of the same covers included. Maybe a video covering both compilations??? HAPPY NEW YEAR MOLLY! Can’t wait to see what ya have in store for us in 2022!

[@mollyesanborn]

Great suggestions, I'll certainly consider doing reactions to those bonus tracks. Happy new year to you too!

[@davidcales275]

Deftones is actually the best cover band in the world. I don't know if it's even debatable. Go and KZbin the MTV Tribute to The Cure 2004.....Deftones absolutely explodes "If Only Tonight We Could Sleep" while The Cure is sitting in the audience and about to perform next. It's unreal.

[@sirensnail2932]

great album. reminds me of snw and diamond eyes

[@mollyesanborn]

Yea, reminds me a lot of Koi No Yokan and Diamond Eyes. I can hear a little bit of all of their previous albums in it though at times.

[@NoChairs4]

Absolutely love this album. Deftones really has a special way of blending heavy and chill sounds in perfect harmony. The spell of mathematics has been my go to song this year. I love how error flows into the spell of mathematics it’s it’s like they are 1 song combined. The spell of mathematics is definitely a love song. I love how heavy the guitar is when it comes in and the first line of the song is “i drink the poison right from your hands”. It’s goes so hard lol. This whole album is amazing really and it encapsulates what deftones is very well. I remember when they released genesis as a single before the album came out and i absolutely fell in love with it and made me so excited for the rest of the album. Your videos are awesome! Can’t wait for more. You should check out the album Clairvoyant by the contortionist. It has been another favorite album for me this year.

[@mollyesanborn]

Yeah Ohms really has a way of blending restraint with such intensity and there's such a fantastic flow to the whole record, the tracks all work really well from one into the next. The same thing happened to me with Genesis, back in late 2021 I listened to it and immediately loved it. I'll have to give Clairvoyant a listen, thanks for the suggestion :)

[@gymlimberita715]

I was listening to it last night - particularly that tracks didn't win me over the first time - I was thinking "is every song on this album spectacularly produced??!" - my bottom four songs at that time are now just as great as all the others. They put so much love and care into this album - every beep, boop and grind is an eargasm.

[@mollyesanborn]

Yeah, the production is fantastic! Overall Ohms is just sonically amazing to listen to, as you said even the tracks that are not necessarily favorites still just sound soooo good.

[@scottyrotty]

I can't get enough of Deftones almost every album symbolizes something and is a piece of its own art ark

[@robertoclemente7066]

Finishing the year on a good note, literally! I said this before and I'll say it again: Spell of mathematics is a masterpiece. Happy 2022, Molly and everyone.

[@mollyesanborn]

I completely agree, The Spell of Mathematics is such an immense sounding song. Really fantastic!

[@stef1651]

It's so cool that you decided to revisit Ohms after listening to the rest of their discography ^^ As you said during the video, comparisons with Koi No Yokan and Diamond Eyes immediately come to mind when listening to Ohms, and to me this is the first Deftones record that doesn't bring anything really new to the table: it takes some of the best stuff the band made throughout the years (as you said there are White Pony elements here and there, and I also get SNW vibes in some moments) and ties it all together in an almost nostalgic way. It's the first time they did this, and omg did they do it well! Ohms is certainly not their best album but it's amazing in its own right, and it was a pleasure (as always) seeing you reacting to it, even if it wasn't your first listen ^^

[@mollyesanborn]

You make some great points. I do love Ohms and it sounds incredible, but I know what you mean. It's almost more an album that reminds you of the rest of their body of work, as opposed to creating a new sound. Despite this though it's absolutely awesome to listen to!

[@concertino58]

Funny you say that they don’t bring anything new- which I find the opposite to be true. There are so many interesting and unique things on this album that they haven’t don’t before that have me excited for there next album: 1- The dual vocals on the chorus sounds like nothing I’ve heard them do (or at least the execution of it just sounds better here) 2- The guitar tone and notes played sound like no track I’ve ever heard them do. I also love how they have the bass on the forefront during the verses. 3- the way Frank incorporates his keys in this song sounds like no song by them. This song does have a “Gore” vibe to it, but well don’t unlike that album. 4- His chorus on this song is probably one of my favorite choruses he’s ever done. I love the way he structures the lyrics. The standout moment is the back half of the track after the 2nd chorus sounds like a more experimental version of deftones. I can hear the deerhunter influence here. I could go on and on about what makes this album a little different from previous albums, but I won’t bore you. I just feel like they will always have the backbone/blueprint deftones sound, but they’re definitely going a more prog/space/shoegaze sound.

[@MystikalSage]

Such a solid Deftones album, one of my favorites from their catalog. Fav tracks are Ceremony and Radiant City. Sometimes I'll listen to the album two times in a row due to the short length of the album and how good all of the songs are.

[@Demention94]

Nice review. I like when you talked about the chorus representing a ray of sunlight through the clouds. Sort of defines Chinos vocals against the atmospheres they create musically.

[@blueberrydenim4807]

This is actually my favorite Deftones album lol. It’s very sonically & thematically dense. It plays out with such fluidity from track to track & feels like a movie with a build up, climax, & end. Big stand out in their discography, not to mention it’s their first album since White Pony to get Grammy nominations, both Genesis & Ohms are nominated for best metal & best rock song in the 2022 Grammy awards!

[@mollyesanborn]

It does have a very nice flow to it, I agree! A super cohesive album and very cinematic. Definitely deserving of a Grammy, I hope they win!

[@ke228]

I remember being so happy hearing this when it came out. Just as solid as anything else they've done.

[@brandingbymarieb635]

It's in their top 3 albums for sure. But since it came out Ohms it's been my obsession.

[@brandingbymarieb635]

Headless is my favourite :) but it's just impossible to rank the songs, all songs are incredible special

[@TheBrandonn]

Funny, the two tracks you said you dont remember are my two favs lol! (Urantia and Radiant CIty) Really love pompeji as well. Your frequent comparisons to koi make sense, its probably why this is my favorite album, its koi on steroids hahaha

[@mollyesanborn]

Koi No Yokan on steroids, haha! Accurate.

[@blkspiderstryker]

Definitely reminiscent of White Pony and Koi No Yokan. “Genesis” is a great tone setting song, very atmospheric. My absolute favorite track on Ohms is “Urantia,” because (as Molly said) Deftones just “bring it with the instrumentals!” Guitar riffs definitely stand out in both melodic and heavy, hammering string playing on the guitars and bass with Deftones’ songs. It’s one of their distinct qualities. Chino’s vocals are always amazing, whether in harmonization or just eradicating with his screeches and vigorous, harsher vocals. Great album review, Molly!

[@mollyesanborn]

Thanks for watching! I agree, tonally Ohms is a blend of White Pony and KNY for sure. It's somehow a heavy album but they never lose touch of that melodic quality to their music.

[@1neOfN0ne]

I've been listening to Deftones for over 20 years and along with Tool they're my favorite all time band. They just keep getting better and better.

[@ShastaBean]

Am right there with you, except add another 10 years...but Tool is for sure my #1 disappoint in music. The notion that they let 13 years of time go by w/o releasing anything is easily the biggest let-down IMO. That time can't be brought back; aka, we missed out. For that, the nod goes to deftones for all-time greatest in terms of consistency, longevity and overall catalog. Not going to diss Tool's shows at Red Rocks and other places I've seen them back in the day. Amazing. But, Tool's last release was in line with disappointing. Yes, there are good sounds, but it feels they phoned it in, especially that one guy that hides in shadows on stage. Those 12 minute songs get boring and feel like musical masturbation. Where are the 5-7 minute songs that are the epic Tool? Gone. Pissed.

[@concertino58]

A lot of that sound you mention throughout the video (heaviness paired with soft /smooth melodies) is pretty much what the name of the album means. 2 opposing forces. It’s very intentional with the sound they are going for :)

You have excellent taste in music.

Check it out if you haven’t heard it! I think you’d get a kick out of it.

[@foresthill538]

This album started off really good with Genesis. I thought it was for the most part, their most singular sounding album. It felt and sounded like one long jam after Genesis with moments of resting on some of the songs like Pompeji. Favorite tracks are Genesis, Urantia, Pompeji, The Link Is Dead, Headless, and Ohms. Each song transitions into the next with ease. Terry Date is a producer with so much experience working with nu metal and alternative metal bands. This one is great for where the band currently is. Unfortunately news broke that Sergio Vega departed the band. Wonder what could come next for them.

[@davidcales275]

Chino is almost 50 years old....he is mellowing out his vocals hahahaha. To me, I feel like he dove into his vocals more than ever on this record, maybe due to the isolation over the past couple years. So Ohms takes like 7 or 8 listens to truly fall in love. (And maybe a peak at the lyrics on Apple Music as the songs are playing). After your 221st time, it will be one of your favorite dynamic records.

Yeah, I actually really enjoyed all of the vocal distortion they used on this record. It brought a slightly different style of intensity to his voice, but it worked!

Time to do a Deftones album ranking! As of right now mine is 1: Diamond Eyes 2:Around the Fur 3:Ohms 4:Adrenaline 5:Koi No Yokan 6:White Pony 7:Saturday Night Wrist 8:Gore 9:Self Titled (Lovers)

[@mollyesanborn]

Nice list! I'm trying to work on mine, it is PAINFUL. The minute I think I have my ranking figured out I second guess myself. I'll try and get a Deftones ranking video up soon on the channel though!

[@robertljazz2796]

This album is so good, it has so many layers of bad ass sounds and nasty guitar riffs! Chinos voice is haunting and then filled with rage!!! Deftones sound is always so unique and good you cant stop listening to them!!!! Their sound can be defined as Sex and Violence in Music Form!

[@Duncan2199]

Hey Molly....Love your reactions. I've been a Deftones fan since the beginning. I've lost track of how many times I've seen them in concert. You need to check out Crosses ✝️ ✝️ ✝️ . It has Chino singing and is more electronic sounding. I saw them perform their first live show in Pomoma, CA back in 2012 at The Glass House. It was awesome seeing Chino in this small club. Check them out. I want to see your reaction.

[@mollyesanborn]

I'm definitely planning on a Crosses reaction sometime in the (hopefully) near future. Everyone keeps saying I'm going to love their sound, I'm so pumped to hear them!

[@hansjavis5854]

I don’t know if its just me looking too hard or trying to find meaning where there is none, but “Genesis” carries themes of duality. The protagonist finding balance in the experiences we often face in life is cleverly represented in the chorus with two different harmonies resolving into the bridge.

[@mollyesanborn]

Oh absolutely, "I've finally achieved balance" is always the line that sticks out to me on that track. And even sonically how it starts so restrained and then the sound of the heavy instrumentals comes rushing in, it's playing on that duality so well!

[@davidcales275]

Totally. I feel like he is talking about his move to Oregon and away from Sacramento, L.A., and his crazy years...on 2 or 3 of these songs actually...

[@weedo3]

Funny you should mention M83. They do a remix of Rocket Skates as a Diamond Eyes bonus track.

[@mollyesanborn]

Really?! I did not know that... I'm gonna have to check that out asap!

[@jonathanaguirre8743]

Listening to Molly while she listening to ohms by deftones

[@puppet585]

It’s called shoegaze they mastered the genre I love it!

[@santiagosalinas6248]

it would be awesome if you do a reaction to low's latest album "hey what"

[@mollyesanborn]

I'll keep that one in mind, I've heard good things about it!

[@alexsalazar526]

You should check out chinos other projects. Crosses and palms

[@mollyesanborn]

I'm planning on it! Can't wait to hear both of them.

[@seanriggen]

[@jamlemon]

Now you’ve listened to all of Deftones albums, how would you rank them?

[@mollyesanborn]

I'm planning on doing a Deftones album ranking video sometime soon, it's gonna be so difficult to make!

[@jamlemon]

@@mollyesanborn true, Deftones don’t make bad albums.

[@mcm4point2o]
