I don’t think you give pretzel logic enough credit. Some of their best songs are on there. Night by night, Rikki don’t lose that number, pretzel logic, it’s great.

that was not the lyrics of little league hahaha it's Thin Kids get a skinny neck hex heads hang heavy - the guitarist sings "kitty kitty cat" underneath it.

Being a slow person, I became aware of the band when falling asleep while listening to Quincy Jones 'The Dude' on ny brother's walkman around 1981. It was one of those clever walknans that automatically plays the reverse side of cassettes when getting to the end. Aja was on the other side... And so the first chords of Home at last started raining into my afternoon snooze... Both AJA and Gaucho and then Fagen's The Nightfly, kept me busy for the next 15 years. (I mean Babylon sisters is my retirement plan.) Towards 'Centuries end' I began reversing, got stuck on 'The Royal Scam' for a while so very slowly making my way. Did manage to see them twice. Ah... and 'Showbiz kids' is such a killer Babaganoush...

From when I first heard Do It Again I went, now that's different, and it just went from there, innovation and magic, much the same as the progression with the Beatles sound in the '60s, great music God bless 'em.

btw the section on reelin in the years has been muted, assumingly for copyright

This movie IS a masterpiece though..

Best band ever.

Thanks for talking about this band

Not from NY!

Oh my God. Bill’s recording of “Suicide is Painless” has been a favorite of mine for years, and yet I never realized there was a connection to his personal life with that song until you started talking about how his partner and brother committed suicide at 1:33. I paused the video at the very moment that it hit me and just sat there for a minute like 😮 to process this realization. Ik this sounds cheesy, but a chill actually went down my spine.

"I'm thinking Emo Philips? Comedian?" I think I'd get along with him.

Of all the movies I've seen in the past 15 years, this one has stayed me with me the longest. It haunts me. The atmosphere it creates is overwhelming, and the actors give such restrained intensity to their performances.

Thank you, Capt. Fisherman for this. Just brilliant.

no boy soprano + botanica de los angeles mention is sorta crazy

Personally I think the first 3 albums are deftones in their prime. Also white pony definitely is the best album and knife prty is what got me into deftones, also one of the best songs lol

Great job critiquing this fantastic band. Your voice is very familiar. Does Strange Spotting mean anything to you?

i like countdown to ecstasy best and the royal scam second best. then aja, and the rest.

The beginning has mark say i'm a peacock i want to.fly He then gets told Peacocks don't fly At the end a peacock flies

This is art!! Consume as such!!!

“A long twisting sigh.” That was brilliantly put.

Xiu Xiu is the Death Grips of indie

I love that Bill's music has touched you personally even after the man himself has been physically gone for decades. Truly the power of recorded music is very strong. But you may be reading much more into it than is there. Certainly all the events you mention had gravity in his life, but you present them in an incorrect order and framing. The album You Must Believe In Spring was recorded in 1977 with Eddie Gomez on double bass (who would leave shortly thereafter, after an 11 year run) and Elliott Zigmund on drums, but because of contractual and other issues was not released until after his death. Bill Died in 1980 and the album came out the following year. He released a number of albums with his "final trio" of Marc Johnson & Joe LaBarbara and many live recordings (of all eras but his last trio specifically) after his death. They continue to find unreleased material. Elaine - his common law wife and partner since the early 60's - died in 1973. He remarried - officially - and had a kid after that. Indeed it was his desire to have a kid and meeting of Nenette that sparked Elaine's suicide and, thus, Bill's guilt. We are all a composite of the things that happen to us, as kids and adults, and Bill was no different, but his trajectory - especially due to his extreme drug use (heroin from c. 1957 - 1970/71 and intravenous cocaine use c. 1974 - 1980) - was set from early on. It's sad that a man who had such expressive ability to touch people with his very individual style couldn't master his own inner sadness. Also, most of the trios you show video of is the last trio, with Marc Johnson and not the trio that recorded the album discussed. But these are minor quibbles, thank you for bringing an oft overlooked album to more people's attention.

Pretzel Logic is underrated

Been curious to check out Deftones outside of the singles of Around The Fur and White Pony. Thank you for this and the work you put into it.

An “elderly couple”?!! James Remar and Lauren Holly aren’t elderly, you twat!

my old punk band back in the 90's used our bassist's father's machine tool shop as a practice space. it was hot and sweaty and we spent our spare time skating, digging half-smoked cigarettes out of his dad's ashtray, and getting a lot of free food from the Burger King across the highway. and driving around listening to a lot of music from The Get Up Kids to Sublime to NoFX. oh man i'm about to tear up thinking about how awesome of times we had. i'm 40 now, i've been married and divorced, i beat heroin addiciton 11 years ago. i still struggle with alcohol but i have a better handle on it than i ever have since i took my frist drink. thank you so much for making this incredible synopsis on Cap'N Jazz and all the offshoots there of. Excellent video! 👏

Love that album

The thru fans of Deftones who knows then from the beggening will say that around the fur is the best album, in fact the first 3 albums for me it died there almost nothing came out good after these, by the way its one of my few favorite band and i knew right in the begening that you were introduced to them with dimond eyes

I agree, don't understand the hype, every other review mentions "pretty visuals" just to shift focus away from how BAD the story and pacing was, fucking nonsensical mess. Writing should be clear and concise for the viewer even in dreamy/surreal sequences.

Great video. I learned a ton. Thanks!

I love TTNG, this is an amazing insightful video! Thank you for this!

Absolute masterpiece!!!!!

I also grew up with my dad exposing me to steely Dan, as my parents are Deadheads and raised me on classic rock , blues, and folk music. Steely Dan has been my favorite band since I was a teen, with Alive in America and their final 2 albums being my favorites which I listened to on my CD player on my way to high school in the early 2010s. Their style has greatly colored my taste in music and general aesthetic. They helped me discover my love of jazz and swing music and I am obsessed with jazz fusion. I hope that the younger generations can appreciate the sardonic styling of the band and relate to the apathy expressed in many of their songs.

Deeply emotional album.

Thank you for putting this together, fantastic work

While the poor people sleepin' with the shade on the light While the poor people sleepin' all the stars come out at night

I’m 90% sure Faith, Torn Apart was written by Jamie describing images of CP that he stumbled upon online

What Kind Of Drink Is Black Cow?

Thank you for taking the time to provide interesting vintage film footage as you analyzed the details of this legendary musical powerhouse. I have been a fan since day one. Ground zero. You covered their span well. Lots of highs and lows. Of particular mention would be the incredidible contrbutions of Michael and Carolyn Leonhardt and Walter Weiskopf.

A one hr and 40 minute plus video from a pretentious guy with an obvious disdain for the music.ah. ok.

I agree with the fact this movie isn't very good. It does not explain the rules about the DC mini, and it does not explain Paprika's existence at all. The ending is also horrible and feels undeserved. Chiba and Tokito did not have enough chemistry to deserve that ending for them

Most disturbing posession movie Ive ever seen. And Ive seen them all. Likely because the symptoms were subtle and the consequences were real - not some show-down with a priest where good triumphs over evil. But rather realistic violence and bleak tragedy. Something I could immagine is what real posession looks like - no vomiting pea soup, spinning heads, horror make-up, or scarry voice. Just an already disturbed person persuaded to do unspeakable things.

what the song at the beginning of the video

Xiu xiu is one of those bands that i dont "like", but i do respect them. Ive tried to get into knife play and a promise so many times throughout my life and i just straight up dont enjoy them. And i usually love noisy experimental music. I get that its supposed to be uncomfortable to listen to but holy shit. They are fascinating though and i always appreciate artists willing to make uncompromising art and stick to their unique vision, so theyre still cool af in my book

Loneliness is inescapable in reality or online If you don't connect with others on some kind of level then you have no choice but to be alone When everyone around you forms into social groups based on a shared interest they create their own social circle If nobody else shares your intetests you're out in the cold It happened to me a long time ago The world demands that you conform, assimilate and will not toletate individuality Where I'm from, the culture revolves around sport, drinking, gossip and toxic ideals of masculinity and femininity Everything that I'm not and believe me, I was horribly rejected by everyone for those very reasons So, loneliness for some is an inevitably

Oh screw you, you have no idea how much effort it took to make this movie and just sobbing about your little issues, unable to see something beautiful instead

This is well done with interesting insight

i love this album so much, thanks for this

Wow. I get totally different meanings from the lyrics.

Sly was/is a genius. If You Want Me to Stay? That groove, so heavy and sexy slow, is still blowing minds in 2014! I'm going to brag a bit here. In '75 Sly & the Family Stone came thru Nashville. Rufus and the Ohio Players opened. I was 18 and it was one funky night. ☮
